Sunblaze, a little bit dazed, had a difficult time registering the situation. His head spinning, the disoriented tom held out his tail to try and keep himself from toppling over.
“Oh, that? It’s just a little scrape.. It’s really not so bad, see?” He flicked his tail to his side and licked away some of the blood from his fur to reveal the wound, which had seemed to open a bit since he’d first gotten it. Oh.. Hm, it did look pretty gnarly. But it didn’t hurt much.. He’d just go check in with Shiverpetal when they returned, no big deal.
“Don’t worry about me, Eagleflight. I just need some sleep. It’ll have already started to heal by morning, you’ll see!” Sunblaze assured the deputy, gently nudging him away with his nose. The last thing he wanted was for Eagleflight to fuss over him all night. They had a whole journey ahead of them tomorrow! He couldn’t miss a wink of sleep.
“Just go eat, or Gentlethunder will eat the whole crow for you.”
