the rushing currents of the river + the river's currents
 
VA 1
the rushing currents of the river (va)


I never thought the river would sweep him away.
I thought he could resist the current- his namesake.
I was wrong.

Currentpaw… I wonder how you’re doing. Is it nice, in StarClan?
Is… Father there?
I hope not. He doesn’t deserve it. He should rot in the Dark Forest forever.
I’m the river. It’s my fault I let you drown…
Have you seen me? My mate, my kits?
I love her so much I forgot about you for a few heartbeats.
One more thing to feel guilty about.

Currentpaw, I never should’ve let you slip
Under the waves.
Running to your side when they brought you back
Refusing to believe you were gone because you were all I had.
Every day I wish you were here by my side.
Not a day goes by that I don’t miss you.
To bring you back I’d do anything.
Pass the time by watching the river.
Asking why it took you away.
When I look at the stars, I see your face.

VA 2
the river’s currents (va)

I never thought the river would sweep me away.
I though I could resist the current- my namesake.
I guess I was wrong.

Riverwhisper, is it nice down there?
Father’s not here. He doesn’t deserve it. I think- well I hope- he’s rotting in the Dark Forest.
You didn’t let me down. I wish I hadn’t died, but it’s not your fault.
I watched with pride at your warrior ceremony, wishing I could be there too.
I’ve seen you, your mate, your kits.
Don’t feel guilty. I want you to be happy.

Remember the day we were first made apprentices?
I still remember you anxiously fidgeting, wondering if you’d be good enough.
Vixenstep, my mentor, took us out hunting and you caught a salmon.
Easy catch, you protested as I congratulated you.
Running through the reeds like there was no tomorrow, laughing as I weaved around them.
Water lapping at our paws, innocent as we didn’t know it would kill me one day.
Hickorysnap, a well-respected warrior, said “Good catch,” and you looked embarrassed.
I swiped a trout out of the water and turned, not noticing the wave creeping up behind me.
Screamed as the wave pulled me under, my muffled cries unheard.
Paw shot above the water, flailing before being dragged back under.
Eyes flutter open blurrily as you come running over and bury your nose in my fur.
Raspy purrs escaped my throat before everything went black.
