Prompt:
“Ice! What in the name of the ancestors are you doing?” Raven screeched. “You should be fighting Maple, not chatting with her!” She stalked forward, pushing her face up against the smaller tom’s. “You are my apprentice, Ice. What’s more, I am also the leader. So you listen to what I say, and you do what I say.” Her voice was menacingly low as she said this, and she fixed Ice with a fiery stare as she stepped back. “Now fight. I’m not telling you again.”

Ice took a nervous step towards Maple, their eyes locked. He slid into a crouch, putting his weight onto his hind paws before leaping towards her. She dropped towards the ground, flicking up a paw intended to slice his belly, but her aim was poor. Instead it struck his rear leg, making him stumble upon landing. “Sloppy, both of you,” Raven hissed. “Now put some effort in!”

Ice swung around, facing Maple once again. He leapt up into the air, feigning that he was performing the same move, but he adjusted his position in the air to land upon Maple’s back. She gasped, the breath driven out of her. Taking the opportunity presented to him, he dug his claws in and churned his back paws, taking out clumps of her thick fur and drawing blood in some places. Knowing that he was in a better position than her, he whipped forward a paw and slashed at her cheek. Enraged, she rolled over, unbalancing Ice. He jumped off her back the the last moment, distracted as she flew at him and bowled him over. Her claws felt like fire as they sliced across his nose. Her back paws churned at his exposed belly, taking off large amounts of fur and leaving shallow gashes in their wake. He aimed feeble blows at her face, but only one landed and it made no difference to her onslaught of blows. She knocked his head back with one massive paw, placing it on his chin so as to stop him protecting his neck. Fuelled by terror, he tried to dislodge her in any way he could, but his efforts were in vain. Her jaws closed around his neck, and he knew the fight was over. She had won.

Shadow stalked over from her viewpoint, nodding to Maple. “Very good,” she purred. “You have the heart of a true fighter. One day, you will become a mighty warrior.” Her gaze hardened as she turned to Ice. “You, not so much. You had a strong start, but you let it all go when Maple jumped at you.” Turning away, she waved her tail dismissively. “Go. See the medicine cat if you wish, it doesn’t bother me.”
Maple looked at Ice’s bleeding face and back leg, while he couldn’t take his eyes off the wounds he had inflicted upon her cheek and back.
“What have we done?”

Congrats! Take care of Ice, really fell in love with this guy.
I for my part was too stupid and misread 500 for 600 words.
I too, will be keeping the art, I could use it again since it's just a sketch.
