It's hard,” the calico turned her head away, taking a deep breath. She wasn't meant to be alone like this, and it was hard. The isolation was so constant and pressing. “Why can't you? Why can't you come with me?” she asked suddenly, looking at the WindClan warrior hopefully. |
ShineFlower flinched a little as Phantom poked her belly. It was still kind of sore from her massive injury she had recieved in the border skirmish. ShineFlower was returning Phantom's hopeful gaze then took her eyes off the silver calico "
honestly I would but...I need to help out WindClan. I need to get to know my family better and...I have a mate and I wish to hopefully raise some kits one day too. But just know I am in no way replacing you...I just...it's hard to leave knowing everyone else might suffer with one less warrior to defend them. I know they exiled you but. I just can't. Maybe one day when I'm older and I've seen enough of clan life. Then we can spend our last days together. But not now." The grey warrior felt incredibly guilty and could sense Phantom becoming sad too.
