DON'T YOU GIVE ME UP, PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP
the journey was long and exhausting. they'd barely had the strength, given the terrible leafbare they had. but the stars have finally blessed them, and the treachery is over, until next time. they can hold onto that. they will make a conscious effort to find ways to store more food for those cold nights. they need not worry about that, right now. right now, they had to think about this. they were going to be leader now. they had their moment to relax and now they had an entire clan to take care of. more than when they were deputy.
they didn't know the way, so they followed closely behind starlingheart as they crossed through the territory. they hadn't realized how close to the territory that highstones was. maybe it's because they had no real reason to talk to the starred cats before... but now they did. they would, over and over. how agonizing. they grunted with a grit of their teeth as they pulled themself up the rocks, muzzle scrunching as rough edged stones pressed against their paw pads, but they continued. it isn't until they come to the entrance of the cave that the gravity of this settles in their stomach. they're unsure but they swallow down. they have to do this, if not for themself than for shafowclan. mothermouth swallows the onyx colored pelt and they only look back briefly at smogmaw and starlingheart with a nod of their head before they continued on.
they walk on, breath hitching in their throat for a moment as they find themself staring at the stone. they remember starlingheart's instructions on what to do, and they do just that, biting their tongue and then pressing their nose to the cold surface. they feel a jolt, and suddenly their eyes snap open. if they had any doubt of these cats existing... it was swept away in this very moment. they knew they were there before but they absolute understood now. their ears pinned back and they searched only to find many glowing cats staring at them. they... didn't say a word. they couldn't say a word.
don't screw this up. they tell themself. as if they could.
