He breathed shakily, glancing at Keane following closely, pelts brushing against one another as they moved swiftly through twolegs place—a comforting, grounding presence for his throbbing heart. He knew. He wouldn’t be in their lives, unlike how a father is supposed to, and the thought hurt, but he would gladly swallow those emotions to keep them safe from their mother, Chi. He couldn’t risk it. That was why he sought Duskpool, knowing they’d be safe, away from Chi’s bloodthirsty grasp, or risk more death in this forsaken family.
His azure hues flickered over his shoulder, heartstrings tightening, just waiting for Chi to jump out of hiding and spew threads that would bring pain to the kits and him. Keane rumbled, urging the black-furred loner forward. If he hesitated now, then everything would be thrown into ruin. “I’m fine.” He wasn’t, but he will ( eventually ). He grunted through a mouthful of fur, still wrapped in the last few wisps of milk that clung to his child’s fur—a scent that would soon vanish the second he handed them across the SkyClan border. “Almost there.” He rumbled, chest vibrating against the low, raspy timbre, azure-tinted hues narrowing.
It had been an agonizing process, waiting for Chi to slither out of her nest, giving them ample time to bolt with the two kits, only days old, scooping them up into their maws, the duo bolted, leaving Kavan to handle Chi. His heart gave a painful squeeze, waiting for Chi to try anything to Kavan. He chuffed, willing his palpitating heart to settle, to calm the fuck down, but the command was futile until his kits were tucked safely in SkyClan’s camp, far out of her reach. He’ll deal with the consequences. He wasn’t some weakling. He can handle pain.
He was a monster, wasn’t he? Little monster. Chi called him. It was only fitting, after all, didn’t it take a monster to understand another? He grinned bitterly, muffled save for the crinkle of azure-tinged hues.
Nearing the border, Mason’s tail shot forward, halting Keane’s tracks with a low rumble, urging the torti to settle the mewling kit with its sibling, nose pressing into their milk-ridden fur with a rumbling sigh, shoulders curling to shield them from harsh realities. You’ll be safe soon. He thought, a promise against all else. He will make it happen, even if he has to kill Chi. He will. He would do it in a heartbeat if it meant keeping his family from harm, even going to the lengths of tearing himself apart. Nothing mattered more than keeping his family safe and alive, even if he could never see them again, whether death took him, or because the borders separated him from them.
He breathed shakily, glancing at Keane who remained silent, expression settled in a grim reminder nearly making the loner snort at their predicament. Some life we have, huh? He thought, sarcasm dripping with each word.
