I don’t deserve their name
Flamepaw

What was he even doing? Morningpaw passed through the world. Watching as the season changed around him and he was still here and not back home. He wanted to. He did. Morningpaw thought about it every waking moment between the bouts of time where his self preservation kicked in enough for him to hunt or find some water. But every time… the image of Wolfpaw crying, with Bumblestar looking down at him. They still didn’t understand where he had been coming from.

Feeling abandoned… but didn’t want to impose. He didn’t want to take away from others just because Morningpaw was feeling down. Or was missing what it was like to be apart of his litter curled up at his mother’s stomach, no cares in the world. That was before everything. Before war and before racing to be a warrior for his brother only for it to be thrown out the window. But… now, Morningpaw could understand why… from Wolfpaw’s perspective. And maybe that’s all he really needed. It was selfish, yet selfless to return.

Morningpaw needed to return. Not for the clan, not for Bumblestar, not for himself. But for Wolfpaw. Because Wolfpaw deserves the world, and somehow… Morningpaw was apart of that somehow. He didn’t understand that, but he wasn’t going to hurt his brother any longer because he didn’t understand. Maybe… all they need. Is to talk.
