Moonshadow was. "Oh wow, Mistress, that felt really weird!" He whispered, dizzy.

"Yeah," Mistress said, sitting down quickly so she didn't faint. "Try your powers out, Moonshadow," She said, not a command, but a free willed asking.

"Uhm, okay," Moonshadow said, confident. That was the first time she nevr called her Mistress. In front of her.

((What should I do?))

((Try and read Mistress's thoughts, like try and talk to her through them. =D Then he can have a little fun testing out his controlling skills on Branchthorn. xD))

Mistress noticed that, but didn't care. As long as the plan was saved, she didn't care.
Can you hear me? She thought.

"Yes, mistress, I can," Moonshadow responded, hearing his mistress' thougths.

"Try controlling someone, like I do," Mistress said, delighted. "Try it on Branchthorn."

"Hey! NO wa-" Branchthorn snarled.

"Sorry Branchthorn, but Moonshadow says sit down," Moonshadow said, almost assertively but didn't want to get on Branchthorn's bad side.

Branchthorn snarled, eyes wide. "I will get you," She half promised. She sat down obediantly. "Ick."

Mistress's eyes gleamed. "Perfect."

Moonshadow stepped back carefully and said, "Alright, get back up." He smiled at his mistress.

Branchthorn got up unsteadily, like she couldn't control whether she got up or not. "I don't see why I couldn't of done it.." She whined.
Mistress's snarl silenced her. "He's doing it because I trust him, and he doesn't IRRITATE me."

Moonshadow smiled in his head, but didn't on the outside because Branchthorn would KILL HIM!

"Dismissed," Mistress snapped before Branchthorn could argue. She snorted and stomped into the forest.

Moonshadow was dismissed and walked into the forest, trailing behind Branchthorn. "I'm sorry, Branchthorn," He apologized.

"Yeah. Right." Branchthorn snapped, not looking at him. She was acting childish, but it wasn't fair!

"No, really!" Moonshadow assured. "I couldn't disobey Mistress, and... Ya know."

Branchthorn rolled her eyes. "You could disobey her at any time, and she wouldn't care. She'd drop you like a skinny piece of prey, if she had to."

"That's from your point of view," Moonshadow said, and instantly wanted to grab those words and stuff them into his mouth.

"My point of view? You know its true, its from any cat that looked at this situations point of view!" She snapped back, growling and face to face with him.

Moonshadow cowered away from Branchthorn. "I'm sorry!" He pleaded.

"Coward," Branchthorn taunted, backing up. Bad mistake, considering he had powers.

Moonshadow scowled and said, "Moonshadow says freeze."

Branchthorn froze in midstpe, not able to talk or walk.

Moonshadow walked around Branchthorn. "Remember whose not irritating mistress, remember who she's trusted? ME! That's right, so if I had were you, mix that with some common sense, I wouldn't mess with myself. Do I make myself clear?" He lectured, allowing Branchthorn to move her head.

Branchthorn slowly shook her head. She shook it no. She growled.

"Well then, looks like our little friend here won't be doing much for a while. Go to camp and do not be seen. You will stay in your den, and will not talk about this night. When you are ready to apologize, call for me," Moonshadow ordered.
