The last thing she wanted to do was put herself in front of Foxtail. Not only because he had given her the worst punishment of her life, even worse than being made into a 'kit or told she couldn't become a warrior for the next six moons, but also because... well there was a tiny part of her that felt kinda bad about almost hitting him. Because even she could admit that she had almost definitely gone a little bit too far. But the other part of her was too angry to care. The part of her that didn't even know how she would navigate this giant grave she had dug for herself and, in many ways, was still digging.
So she picked silence instead. Dragging herself out of the apprentice's den in the morning, saying a hasty goodbye to Owlpaw before she could get choked up on herself again, and stalking across the camp to the place she normally met Foxtail first thing in the morning for training. He's already there, and the sight of him has her tail lashing behind her, a scowl already starting to push on her features that she doesn't attempt to quell. Instead she approaches with her head held high and her eyes blazing. She'll respect Lichenstar's decisions, Moonbeam's kindness towards her, even Hazecloud's sharp reprimand. But Foxtail? She won't give him the satisfaction.
Whatever she still has control over, she'll take. She stands ready, and waiting, as proud and tall as ever.
