⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊ The long dry grass crinkled under their heavy pawsteps. They had told their mentor that they'd be right back, but their legs seem to be taking them farther and farther from where they were supposed to meet up. Their black and brown fur stood up on end as they chased the smell of death to the border. Someone strange had passed through here, and they crinkled their nose at the deeply unpleasant smell. They could hear the other get closer and closer."S-stop right t-there!" Beetlepaw's voice shook but they stood tall in case the stranger decided to attack.
As their eyes meet the fear disappeared completely and burned into embarrassment. The loner was clearly smaller than they were and bone thin with fur so matted and tangled they had wonder if it had once been long and flowing. Shame bubbled in their chest, it wasn't that long ago that themselves and death danced around each other.
A chase that the young loner seems to be losing. "You umm.. s-smell bad.."Beetlepaw murmured, shifting their weight, growing more uncomfortable."But umm.. I can h-help. M-my home is nearby are you h-hurt? Can you walk?" The apprentice clearly forgot that they were just following their scent trail all the way out to the border.
