@CHILLEDSTAR.


[ ༻ 𖤓 ༺ ] It was supposed to be a simple hunting patrol, one Ripplestream had been eager to go on since Chilledstar- his sibling was on it, even if the other was a bit cold shoulder with him around, he was still happy to go on a hunting patrol with the other. Yet how would he know today would turn out to be a mess, that there was something else lurking within the marshlands, waiting with its jaws lulled open, lurking within the shadows, blending in just as well within this terrain as the warriors were. It was hungry as well and... it would seem to the fox, the group has become a tasty meal within its soulless eyes.

Ripplestream was unaware of the fox's presence, walking slightly further ahead of the group, ears perked forward while staying alert for any shuffling sounds or sounds of frogs that may cross his path, which of course did not take long for the warrior to find something, it was a lizard-his hazel eyes trained on the creature before him and when he lunged to snap the creature up so did the fox-slamming itself right into the warrior, jaws sinking into the warrior's left side of the face, hardly any reaction time to the attack while pain seared through his left side like a new flame growing bigger and bigger.

A pained screech erupted from his jaw as claws became unsheathe, digging whatever freed paws into the devilish creature's muzzle in an attempt to get out of its maws while it thrashed him around like some sort of ragdoll, crimson dripping onto the ground below the beast and Ripplestream before he was eventually dropped onto the ground, half of his face mangled by the beast's teeth while it still loomed over him teeth bared, showing tufts of black fur and crimson from where it had ripped his face, fear and pain shooting though the warrior as he struggle to get onto his paws, his heart drumming through his chest. Was this how he died?

it was all supposed to be so simple. a simple hunt. a small hunting patrol with them, a couple npcs, and ripplestream. they wanted to make sure he new how to properly hunt. they've been doing alright, they guess, but they could do better. chilledstar would make sure of it. their tail lashed back and forth as they watched ripplestream walk ahead of the patrol. they should be fine, they think, they're not going to be that far from them. maybe they should have never. everything happens so fast. they don't even think they realize what is happening until their heart plummets to their stomach at the screeching sound of distress from ripplestream. their half-brother. their sibling. shit. shit!

their paws are moving before they can even think. their heart hammers faster than they can comprehend. damn it to hell! damn it! this wasn't supposed to– he can't die! they haven't even had a chance to get to know them! they haven't had the chance to be the older sibling that they knew they could be– why were they so angry? they can't even remember why they pushed them way in the first place and now all they can think about is the fact that they never should have.

"fox!"

they shout out. they can't even think. paws flare, and claws find themselves outstretched right towards the already downed cat. chilledstar doesn't even think. they simply move, ignoring the way their flesh tears under the force. they're bleeding, heavily, but that's the least of their concerns. they don't even really know where they're bleeding from. all they know is that they need to get ripple out of here. they latch on to his scruff and behind to growl as they pull him away. the npcs manage to distract the fox enough to get it to go away. their chest heaves in and out as they start to drag their body back towards the camp. it was both a blessing and a curse that they'd not gotten that far from it.

"d-d... don't you... fucking d-die on me..."

they muffled between the fur in their teeth. they don't think they'd ever forgive themself if ripplestream died.
