"Ye who slays the day tends to slave away"
(Aw, ty!)
Goldfish was shivering as a gust of wind shot through her pelt. She shifted so her weight so she was curled up with her head peeping over Pepperbounce's back so she could see his face and her hind legs were shifted around his tail. She felt Pepper's breathing slow as he relaxed. She didn't relax, though. She wanted to warn the clan very badly. They probably knew not to go on the ice. Oh, well. Goldfish squirmed in anxiety. Great- now that she wasn't hypothermic, her cursed insomnia returned. Pepperbounce, though, seemed relatively patient with her shifting. Wait, no. He was half-asleep. Gold purred. He was a character. Goldfish stayed still until she was certain he was sleeping. Then, she sat up, and went to grab a mouse from the fresh-kill pile. She hoped Tansypaw would treat her soon. Her leg and shoulders were screaming in agony- not to mention she was pretty sure she had frostbite on her injured leg's paw pad. Cats stared with alarm, sympathy, curiosity, or anxiety as she passed them. Whatever- she had two friends. What more could she want?
But as much as she hated it, Goldfish saw how cats disliked her attitude and personality- it hurt, and she hated it. Her mood crushed completely, she settled a little ways away from Pepperbounce and began shredding her mouse, ripping it apart with her jaws and crushing bones. Even food angered her. She usually was light-hearted, but this was too much. Goldfish slashed her claws into the ground, hissing. It didn't help, though. Nothing could bring her spirits up again right now. Feeling really down, Goldfish swallowed her mouse quickly and curled up into a ball. She wanted a hole to swallow her up- Starclan, she was in pain! Emotionally and physically suffering at one time? Life at that moment was... the definition of crap (That's a no-brainer). She felt so confused by Pepperbounce's look, Shellwhisker's apparent absence, and by the fact literally nobody volunteered to help her.
Wait.
Waaaiiiit.
Did nobody like her and Pepperbounce enough to help them?
No. The clan she was born and raised in wasn't like that... was it? Goldfish buried her nose in her paws to warm it up. She fell into a light, wary sleep.
