Father; Can you hear me?

[Tyler-182]

Sparta moved cautiously through the ShadowClan camp. This was the loners first visit to ShadowClan camp since his father had been seen fit as the clans deputy. Sighing the tom dropped his head to stare at the ground as he made his way past some of the warriors that made smart remarks and hateful comments about a loner being in their camp even though it was fully well-known that Spata had rightfully earned a place in ShadowClan more than one.

The loner made his way to SilentStar's den and checked inside to see if the leader was there; It was time the two old friends had a good talk about Spartas father, and the fate of ShadowClan.

"SilentStri- Star... Are you here...?"

Sparta caught a big black ball of fur huddled up in a corner of the den and moved over to the feline, Prodding the body with his paw he expected to see the face of his old friend yet instead caught a glimpse of the one he hated most. Vlek'Tu, His blood.

"...Father."

Sparta examined Vlek'tu over for a moment and swallowed the lump that built in his throat. This was the first time in many, many moons that Sparta had spoken to his father and it was b ound to end in heart-break.

Vlek'Tu let out a hiss, awakened from a light sleep. Who did this ignorant cat think he was?

The deep orange tom leaped to his feet, his upper lip raised to revealing jagged, yellow teeth. But, as soon at he set his sliced eyes on the cat, Vlek'Tu quickly realized that it was just his disappointment of a son, Sparta. He was no threat at all.

This being said, the massive cat took a seat, relaxing this muscles. Surely his son would be no problem to him.

"Oh, it's just you, Sparta." he meowed flatly. The deputy wasn't exactly thrilled with a visit from his son. Actually, this unexpected appearance seemed vaguely annoying to Vlek'Tu.

"What are you doing here?" the tom meowed, curiously.

Sparta gave Vlek'Tu a look that consited of only resentment and hatred. The loner arching his back in a defying manner to his father.

"Why I am here is none of your business you over-grown brute. You are not one of them."

Sparta had been referring to the clan cats of ShadowClan, He still strongly disagreed with SilentStars choice of a deputy, because even though Vlek'Tu was strong and battle-harded. He was cruel and chaotic.

((OOCL: I'm so sorry for the long wait, Tyler!))

Vlek'Tu raised his lip to reveal his yellowed teeth.

"I was never trying to be one, you sorry excuse for a cat!" he hissed.

The dark orange tom felt his claws unsheathing instinctively, as they had done so many, many times before. And after all these moons, his claws never did failed him.

Unconsciously, Vlek'Tu found himself giving Sparta a blow in the shoulder with a good amount of force put in. But, did he even stop himself?

The answer is no, he didn't. And in all honesty, the deputy was smiling on the inside.
