...... So Crowtooth was back here again, not long after the last time. The tom padded through the dark, stars glittering up in the sky above him, eventually padding into the meadow speckled with stones that marked the graves of the lost.

The one he went up to was new, but he knew it by heart already.

"Heya Bravebird."

Crowtooth flopped, curling up on the cool dirt that buried his sister and placed his head upon the stone marker like he'd once done to her side. It wasnt the same, of course it wasnt the same but now it was the closest he was ever going to get.

"My friend yer never gonna guess what happened. Well, I suppose ya might, I bet yer watchin' me an' all o' us right now from the stars, snarkin' all the while.

But I got deputy. Yipee......"
The tom sighed, staring up at the twinkling lights, ears drooping.


"Im not unhappy so dont get yer tail in a twist about me bein' ungrateful I just.... I dunno how ta feel I guess. Deputy was never my aspiration, it was yers an' yer not here ta take the role or see me in it. 'Suppose the root o' all o' this is me missin' ya still, though I always will....

I just, wish ya were here buddy."
Because while her body was, laying below the dirt just under him, he just didnt know if that was enough to fill the empty ache in his heart.

Crowtooth
Windclan Deputy | He/him | 51 Moons

Power Card: Cold Gust

The deputy had encountered some poor warrior as he head back from the border, the remains of Tallgrass's corpse slung over his back and had taken advantage of the horrified cat to act as a runner. He didnt want to scare the clan by bringing the shredded body of their clanmate back to camp, didnt want them to assume it was heralding another war when riverclan when he feared it was something Other. But Twilightstar, of course, needed to know about this and so needed to know to come to the starry meadow.


So the random warrior was sent to fetch her and while he waited to show her Tallgrass (if felt wrong to call him Tallpaw in death) and explain the tom got to work digging the grave he'd be buried in after. Did Tallgrass have loved ones to summon to inform? Crowtooth wasnt the most in touch with clan relations, stars what a mess.


Hearing the pad of paws approach and scenting the leader the tom say back, pant-wheezing a bit before rasping a "Found 'im on the riverclan border, its Tallgrass if ya cant recognize but I aint gonna blame ya fer that if so given his state. I aint got a clue what killed him or if it was the same thin' that ripped him apart but....." But he was afraid of it, but he didnt think it was a cat but it was no creature he'd recognized, but he swore he saw something.

Clearing his throat the tom continued. "Aint no signs o' riverclan or any cat really but I think I saw somethin' in the river.... Not a cat somethin' neither I.... I dunno what it was or if I saw anythin' at all really sorry.


....I really dunno how ta handle this Twilightstar this was.... strange an' dangerous o' a kind Ive not seen." He hoped the leader would have more of a clue.
