..... What could Mudhound even say in this moment. It seemed Bumblestar and Redhawk couldnt see the plain truth and the tripod had to wonder if Drizzlecloud and Springpaw were in the same group and just wanted to let some come to the realization gently. Violetfreckles throat was open, there was too much blood. Cobwebs didnt fix stuff like that..... Even twolegs that'd managed to save Mudhound after their leg had been severed would struggle.
....... Mudhound didnt want to bury Violetfreckle either.
Their tail curled around the smaller warrior, cheek squishing against her shoulder. "We.... We'll do whats best for Violetfreckle. Everyone likes her, we'll do our best and no one here will hurt her. And we're here" Golden eyes flicked to Drizzlecloud, Springpaw, Bumblestar, then Redhawk herself "we wont let another rotten cat touch her."
The maine coon mix meant that, they really did, even as their words felt hollow because it wasnt like anyone could hurt Violetfreckle anymore, in the worst of ways.
Watery sad eyes closed for a moment, unable to look upon everything as they quietly repeated "This isnt your fault. This isnt your fault" into russet fur.
Of course blink and you miss it and when the tripods eyes opened it was to their sister dying. "What?!" The words were sudden and shocked, not even distressed yet just confused. "How did this happen no one was really touching her?!?"
It sunk it a little.
"BUMBLE!"
A paw reached out before hesitating and the tripod turned to Drizzlecloud, demanding "She had her nine lives right?!?! Someones seen her loose a life before and come back right?!?! Riverclan keeps loosing leaders cuz they arent good enough to get lives but Bumble is good enough she has to be! Drizzle she's gonna come back right?!?!?" Mudhound did not wait for an answer, paw finally touching their sister and feeling no pulse to speak of before trying to pull Redhawk back, insisting. "Give her room! Shes gonna come back she's a leader, stop touching her throat Redhawk! I-its gonna heal so you need to give it room, I dunno maybe touching it messes it up EVERYONE GIVE HER ROOM SHE'S DEAD! SHE NEEDS ROOM SHES GONNA COME BACK!"
Mudhound believed it they completely believed it (they had no other way to cope with the event). So gently trying to usher Redhawk back with their tail, their paw moved from Bumblestars lifeless pulse point and started shifting their sister so her body wasnt laying on Violetfreckles. It.... It wasnt graceful and despite their most gentle efforts it left the leader limp in a heap next to her love in a sprawl that felt too undignified for how Bumblestar was. "I-I. Wolfpaw can you help me reposition her without touching her throat. She's gonna come back I dont wanna give her a neck crick when she does she'll have my pelt." The words were weak and the desperate humor fell flat making it clear that though the warrior was trying to hold strong the events were rattling them still, head turning to look at Spiderthroat with desperate eyes begging for instruction.
Both mollies were dead and as far as the clan knew only Bumblestar would come back and no one knew what'd killed her.
How were they supposed to react?
