~'Blind' with /grief/~

Leopardflight was so startled by the attack and the comment that she froze, the stinging in her sides not important. Rot in DeathClan! Redweb's words came back to her. Was she really that bad? She turned and curled up in her nest, sobbing. The look on Redweb's face had been unbearable. How could things have gotten so bad? Leopardflight ignored the searing pain of the scratches and cried, wishing that Runespell would come back soon.

[[xoxo] shard. :)]

Berryleaf noticed her friends misery and completely forgot her own sorrows. She padded over and sat down to console her friend. "Le-Leopardflight?" she mewed worriedly.

[SHADE. :D]

Runespell stalked back into camp, nodding to Redweb and Cinderface as he passed them. When he saw his mate, he cried out and dashed over to her, sitting beside her and licking the blood from her face. "Who did this to you? Was it Redwed or Cinderface? I will tell Sorrowstar - they've breaking the warrior code, attacking you!" The tabby was furious. He didn't know what they had done to make their clanmates hate them so. He just pressed his pelt against Leopardflight's feeling utterly hopeless. Tears slid down his cheeks as he realised he was being driven away from his own clan by cats he had thought were his friends. He just sat beside his mate, sobbing desperately. He wanted every cat to just leave them alone, he felt completely fragile, as if a single slash of a claw could break him and Leopardflight into a thousand pieces.
"We can't be together," the tabby whispered to her. "Our clanmates have turned against us. We can't be mates. They don't want us to. We can't." The tom broke down in tears, consumed by the pain of being torn away from the cat he loved.

"Cinderface.. Come with me, please.." was all she murmured into his fur before she got up and turned around tes streaming down her cheeks. Looking at Runespell with glassy tear filled eyes she let her voice crack and break down. "To think that I once loved you.." she choked out before streaking past him and towards the entrance of camp. "I hate this Clan! I hate my life! Goodbye BrightClan" she yowled out before throwing herself through the ripping bracken out out into the forest. The world would know her as nothing other than Web.

[SHADE. :D]

Runespell didn't reply. He just stared at his paws, eyes dull as pebbles. Everything had become a disaster. Redweb was gone. Cinderface hated him. He could never be with Leopardflight. All he could think was that StarClan had turned against them. He moved away from Leopardflight, blind in both eyes with the tears that had begun to fall. He didn't feel anything; he felt dead, just dead. He wondered if his heart was still beating. Hoped it wasn't. Perhaps death wasore merciful than this wreck of a life... He thought of Redweb, wallowing in self-pity; Cinderface, burning up with jealousy; Leopardflight, swallowed up with greif that they could not be together. He stood there, numb, paws seemingly frozen to the earth. He then turned and soundlessly padded from the camp, head down, tail trailing in the dust. He still could nothing except the cold feeling of the tears on his cheeks. He felt empty and emotionless. Love and hate were just an empty space in his body now. Why should he smile upon the world when inside he was nothing? His happiness was nothing. If he felt a droplet of happiness, he was certain some other cat would come and spoil it. He let out a dry sob, eyes wet. He suddenly felt exhausted as all his senses rushed bavk. He did not recognize the clearing he was in, but Redweb's scent was strong. His legs tumbled out from bebeath him as his last scrap of strength deserted him. He did not know what to do, where to go, who to turn to. He didn't hate Redweb. He didn't hate Cinderface. He only hated himself for being so stupid, stupid, stupid.

Fury pounded through her veins as she ran, brambles and thorns sliced through her pelt like she was made of snow and caused blood to streak down her soft black sides. Her red ringed paws were splattered in mud, the delicate pads grazed and bruised. She stumbled blindly around, trying to get out of the camp that had been her home. She couldn't stay in a place where so much sorrow had evolved; her heart was tearing in two. She had lost three precious friendships already over her own stupid mind, out of the pity she was wallowing in. Killing herself seemed like a pretty good option, there would be no one to grieve for her though she'd make cats happy. Her apple-green eyes where still blinded by tears, tears that just everlastingly flowed down her cheeks, not stopping once. Her body stiffened as she tripped up, in a rolling ball of fur, mud and blood she tangled herself up in a thorn bush. Shrieking in pain she withered and thrashed, with each movement her flesh tearing more the fresh scent of blood splaying out over the land. Sobbing softly she fell limp, she looked like a thorn ragged doll that had been tossed aside. Her neck hung down low like it was snapped, a spiked arm of bracken curled loosely round it. StarClan kill me now.. was all she could think as pain wracked her body.

[SHADE. :D]

As Runespell's head withered upon his paws, a scream reached his ears. He turned away. How could he have been so stupid? He loved Leopardflight. He knew he should have apologised to his brother. He shouldn't have been so petty. But he did not know why Redweb hated him. He wept as he realised that he couldn't be near any cat he loved. He stopped almost immediatly, shaking his head. He would not start feeling sorry for himself. Such a stupid, stupid boy.
He suddenly remembered the scream, and jumped to his paws. His limbs shrieked in protest, but he followed the scent of blood until his eye spotted at red-brown shape tangled in a bush. Runespell recognized Redweb, and his paws stiffened breifly with anger. She had hurt Leopardflight! Then the whole situation came crashing back down on him. How stupid he was. Wordlessly he padded to the bush gently pulling at Redweb, trying to get her free. His paws and muzzle dribbled scarlet blood from the thorns prodding at him. He attempted to drag her free, tangling his own body up in the process. He draggd himself free, pelt bleeding, and tugged at Redweb's scruff. He could feel the brambles pulling at his fur, hungry to drag him in.

Blood dribbled down from her slack black jaws as she hung there, her pelt completely stained with dried blood. Her muscles had ripped, she could barely move at all without shockwaves of pain sliding through her slim lithe frame. She closed her eyes and heaved a soft sigh her throat muscles straining a little. "Is this the end” she mewed quietly to herself, a thorn ripping over her eye. Blood clouded her vision the mix of tears and the red liquid slopping down her face. She waited there, hanging limply and waiting to die when she felt something tug her. With one eye flickering open she stared at Runespell the thorns sinking in deeper. ”Please.. leave me to die” she meowed raising one battered paw to push him gently away. Rolling her head back she heard her twisted ankle snap. “Runespell, forgive me.. I just.. wanted to say.. that I l-“ her voice drained away as her consciousness reached its limit. Wreching up a mouthful of blood she fell still, her chest rising and falling ever so slightly. The slim sleek muzzle of a fox poked through the trees, it had scented the rich smell of scent and was following it. It foul stench radiated from its body as it crept closer to the two cats.

[SHADE. :D]

Runespell gasped as Redweb's weight sagged onto him. He tugged her free, and laid her gently on the grass. He looked up into the eyes of the fox. Hissing, he stood protectively over his friend's body. As it swiped at him, he danced to one side, forgetting about the brambles. They caught him in a rough embrace, crushing his body. He struggled, his bones creaking and moaning. He watched the fox sniff Redweb before turning toward him, he struggled harder, eye wide.

[razor]

Her muscles were ripped and her back legs felt as if they where broken. Her eyes stayed half open though as she was pulled out, locked onto Runespell. The scent of fox mingled with the scent of blood in her nostrils causing her to wheeze. The sudden movement of Runespell caused her to blink painfully. He was protecting her from the fox, after all she had done to him.. Tears slid down her cheeks, watching the fox pitifully she waited till it turned before she pushed herself to her paws. Staggering forward she pushed herself in front of Runepell. The thorns took hold of her again, pressing her back against him just a little. "Don't you.. dare" her voice was a thin whisper, blood slide over her lips. "Touch.. him" she finished the sentance, spitting out the blood and wincing.

[ooc]; You can power play the fox killing her in your next post after Runey says sorry. :3

[SHADE. :D]

[ooc;] Kay-Kay-Tay.
[bic;] Runespell watched in horror as Redweb tried to protect him. He struggled feebly, exhaustion and terror slowing him. The fox bared its fangs at Redweb, nudging her aside. Runespell shrank away, eyes fearful. It seized him about the neck, dragiing him free of the bramble. He couldn't run. The tabby wailed as the fox shook him from side to side, his cries and yelps filling the clearing. The fox threw him to the ground. He lifted a paw feebly, then dropped it again. "I'm sorry," he croaked, a moment before the fox was upon him. A moment later, the beast turned on Redweb. Runespell's body was tattered and broken - and lifeless.

[razor]

_{Redweb watched in horror as the tom was shaken like a rag doll and dropped. Her heart started to pound with fear, he body wouldn't move. It was only a second before it grabbed her by the neck and tore her throat, shaking her till finally the slim bone in her neck snapped. She shrieked silently before landing next to Runespell. her blood mixed with him in a pool around them. Her body fell still, broken and lifeless. The two of them where dead. The fox sniffed gingerly at the cat's before turning and slinking off.}

[fernie. (:]

Ooc: OMG ME TOO! JUST LEAVE US BEHIND WHY DON'T YOU! JEEZ-O! GOD LEOPARD'LL BE HEARTBROKEN!
Bic: Leiopardflight blundered out of camp after Runespell, knowing she had to tell him- now. She followed his scent until it was mingled with a scent of Redweb, blood and... fox! She found the clearing and felt like her heart was being ripped from her body be StarClan itself when she saw the two cats' bodies lying motionless. 'Runespell... No!' she shrieked, running up to him and nosing his cold, cold fur. 'Runspell... you'll never know. They'll never know. I'm pregnant with your kits, you can't leave me now!' she screamed, knowing it was too late. She sobbed and sobbed, her nose in his soft fur. It was stained badly with blood but she didn't care. Then she turned to Redweb's body. 'It was probably your fault!' her acid hate for the dead cat was still not as powerful as her love and grief for Runespell. 'StarClan... why? Why does everything have to be taken from me? My brother, my friends, my love.' she sobbed and sobbed, her heart broken into a million pieces. She lay there in the dark, lying with her mate for the last time.
