It was ingrained in her head, the body, the blood, the picturesque pines surrounding it. It was ShadowClan, again. ShadowClan killing them over and over again, drawing up blood. The body wasn't across the border, as far is she could tell. Maybe, maybe it was their fault just another stupid murdering who had been seeing nothing but bloodlust. Her mistake, her mistake. If she had been faster, if she had moved quicker, she could have stopped it, could have caught them. But, no, no, no. She had failed and they were dead and now it was either Hazel or Dawnpaw.

Pick a cat, any cat, and they'll be dead before you can learn to love them.

Feet wet with blood, Foxflurry stumbled to a stop inside the clearing. She couldn't freeze, she had to find them. "Hazelpaw! Dawnpaw! Get out here, dammit!" Stars danced around her head, stealing memories and wiping her cares. If they saw her now, blood spattered and frenzied, what could she say. There was a body at the border and it might as well have been her sisters. "Have you seen them." Words muttered to the closest cat. "Did you hear me? Have you seen Hazelpaw or Dawnpaw?"

I don't know if they're alive. I don't know if they're alive.

"THERE'S A DEAD CAT AT THE BORDER!"
