MarshHeart|He/him|89Moons
~~~~~༺♰༻~~~~~
MarshHeart froze as QuickWhisker plummeted, still hearing his words echo around the valley even as he disappeared from sight.
MarshHeart lunged forward awkwardly trying to catch the warrior with his claws but to no avail as he heard the sickening thud below, barely audible above the rushing water, most like they were laughing at the old Tom's foolishness,
had to play cruel games with the kit, had to be the proud warrior, the better warrior didn't we? Aren't we proud now?
"QUICKWHISKER!"
He yowled as he jumped down from the cliff skidding down rocks as he panted, his eyes stayed on the silver striped pelt floating downstream. Running ahead MarshHeart could only ignore the small voice in his head, he wouldn't be like others, he would be fine, the kit would be fine.
He slowed as the river thinned and split, he could grab QuickWhisker from this distance just a guess of which side he would go...
MarshHeart hesitated for a moment before jumping into the water it was definitely pulling to the right, he would make it he thought as he pulled himself onto a rock jutting into the river, gasping for breath he looked up just in time to see a mass of fur riding the rushing water.
There!
He jumped albeit winded he grabbed the tom by his back, kicking against the current as he slowly made it back to the rock.
The moment he dragged QuickWhisker out of the water he felt his paws slip out from under him landing roughly onto the young warrior,
He would have to deal with MarshHeart for a second or two maybe three if he didn't catch his breath the cold water soaked him making it feel like a log draped onto him, making his wheezing even deeper.
"your... too young to die... yet kit.. leave that.. to us elders..."
He muttered before laying his head onto the warriors back, at least he was breathing MarshHeart thought in relief.
