BACKGROUND-
Dante and Darkpaw, brothers and kin of blood and war. Darkpaw chose a different path.
When Darkpaw still had the evil his father instilled upon him, he was likely the next candidate to the throne. That wasn't a thought too pleasant for Dante, who was obviously the more capable;
Stronger, faster, bigger and better in every way.
He feared Deathfang was making a huge mistake, so he decided to get rid of Darkpaw.
He thought that if he brought Darkpaw's precious lover to the camp, his mother and father would dispose of them both. But Darkpaw was always the favorite of the siblings, so his mother only injured him enough to maim him, but she did kill his crush. This was a bad move. This sent Darkpaw on a vengeance/ reformation, with the help of the clan.
Dante got his sorry tail kicked, and was cast out.
He then went to feral kitty pets and, most importantly, a group of Rouges lead by Rojor.
He and Rojor began to get along very well, but Dante never really felt like he was accepted. Rojor was smart to not let him get too close, considering Dante was planning on killing him anyway. But the plan needed to be carried out.
Along the way he befriended a young she-cat who left the group shortly after he had arrived. She faded from his memory shortly after.
Soon his job was completed, a mere four months later, he had killed Rojor. But he was no leader, so the small band dispersed, leaving him to his thoughts; which soon turned dark, and murderous. He went on to seek out and kill every cat who had ever wronged him, all the band members (except for Stargazer and Silversun, whom he couldn't find) and he sought out the last living of his kin.
Last to die was Darkpaw;
And he will make sure it is a slow, painful death.
PLOT-
Part One-
Dante has already killed many cats, but one more would fit nicely into his modest collection. Darkpaw.
He's heard by word of mouth that his little 'bro' is living with Thunderclan now, and has a plan.
He wanders around Thunderclan territory one day, and to his surprise, he finds his little brother straight off.
He is about to attack whena (stargzer...?) and _______ find him hiding in a bush.
He quickly explains himself.
Darkpaw recognizes him immediately as a danger and a threat, and tries to convince the others that they should just throw him out.
They don't listen and invite him to come to the camp.
He declines, stating that now he knows his favored brother is safe and sound, he doesn't have to worry.
When they get back to camp, Darkpaw desperately tries to explain to (Stargazer...?) who Dante is; what a killer he is, tyrant and all. ( Whether she believes him or not... that depends on Sasha:P)
He even goes to Ravenstar to explain the threat to him. (does he take it seriously...?)
PART 2-
Dante and his little thug friends (Cryptic) and ________ are planning on killing Darkpaw.
They watch the territory vigilantly, and finally it pays off.
One day Darkpaw goes off alone, and they jump him. He fights back, hard, and finds that they're driving him toward a deadly fall, so he has to just take the beating and play possum.
Then Darkpaw's good friend (Stargazer...?) find's him, thinking that he is dead. She runs back to camp and alerts Ravenstar, and a large patrol is gathered (in case the attackers are still there).
Heres the catch; Dante and his friends had killed a small fox earlier that day, and they all rolled on it until they masked their scent. So the conclusion was that Darkpaw was attacked by a fox.
A good week pass's before he comes out of his coma. ( Cat's visit him... Maybe Stargazer would be most common.) And another week pass's before he can leave the medicine cats den. Once he does he barely talks, hardly. ________ (good friend) actually caught him trying to eat Death Berries one day, and he was confined to camp for another week after.
Finally, Dante and his Rogue friends catch ________ (apprentice or kit, who ever...although if it could be a she and be a cat that Darkpaw is falling in love with... ) and make him/her a deal.
They bring them Darkpaw and their clan is spared. He/She agrees to help.
He/She is immediately captured.
Meanwhile, Darkpaw still wont talk. He prefers to be alone; hardly eats or drinks anymore, and is basically wasting away in his own depression. ________ tries to snap him out of it, but cant.
Then they announce that __________ is missing, and says they smell odd cats all over the territory. Darkpaw's interest is peaked, but he doesn't say anything, except to (Stargazer...?) and that conversation is short and frustrating, loaded with hints that Stargazer is trying to understand.
They talk shortly after, and it seems Darkpaw is talking in some sort of code.
She doesn't realize what it means until it is too late;
Darkpaw is soon missing.
PART 3-
BATTLE TIME!!
Stargazer, ________, and ________ start a campaign to find the two missing cats.
They find the initial trail of blood from the first missing cat, then Darkpaw's scent overlapping and follow.
When they get there, Darkpaw is already beaten quite badly, but he is standing there and taking it, as if he wants to die. This confuses the clan cats, who are concerned for his and the other cats safety.
They jump in and manage to save the other cat but Darkpaw they couldn't get to.
They want to go back in but the other cat tells them they can't do it alone, and besides, he/she needs a medicine cat.
When backup does arrive, they waste no time in getting the job done.
Battle happens, the Rouges are out numbered, Darkpaw is saved (but only just) and yeah... everything is good, except Dante is still out there and still looking for blood, so don't be too surprised if he pops up once in a while.

FEEDBACK IS GREATLY ENCOURAGED! Honestly, I don't mind if you guys want to pitch in... It doesn't have to be autocratically my idea... there are most likely (hopefully) going to be other people involved. but, for starters I think maybe if Raven and Sasha would throw some things around for now, because;
A) they are the other rogues involved as of now
And
B) Sasha wanted to RP with Dante anyway, and she is playing Dark's closest friend at the moment.
