    Blood. The metallic scent filled her nostrils. But something was different. No. His blood? Malachite. Here, he's back. She ran across the field, past the borders, to a lake, to a trail of his scent going cold. She followed it, leaving behind muddy pawprints. She found herself walking farther into the forest, now catching another scent. One so old she had nearly forgotten it. Her own brother. Ryu's blood. She found herself at an all too familiar cave, though it was blurred with the tears coming into her eyes.


    "N-no… stars, no."


    One wolf's body, shot in the head and staring back at her with glazed over blue-grey eyes. "Ryu... R-Ryu. I'm sorry. I-I never said goodbye." The Saddness only lasted a few minutes before she got another whiff


    But then where was Mal's scent coming from? Tears still streaming down her face, she continued past her old home trying to find her boyfriend. His scent was just getting colder and colder. Just too fast. She ran, not wanting to lose the scent. He might be in trouble. He might need help. He might- but there he was. Standing there only a few yards away, smiling at her. Those Beautiful silver optics bright and sparkling. He was here. She just needed to go to him. Tell him how much she loved him, that all she wanted was to be with him forever, that she loved him more than the stars, the moon, or anything else in the world. She wanted to finally kiss him, to be brave enough to make the first move.


    A gunshot—


    She woke up with a scream. The nightmare. Her brother, dead. Malachite. "M-Mal…" She was choking on tears and did all she could to hold them back. Not Mal. She heard the gunshot, but just before she jolted awake screaming, she saw the bullet, where it was heading. More than likely it was simply the knowledge of what Tragic event came next that woke her up, not the gunshot. But it still echoed in her head. BANG! It just replayed over and over.


    She sucked in a breath. Then gasped with a little shriek. She was smelling blood. Mal's blood. She looked up, then began shaking her head and wimpering, "No, no no no. Stars, please, no." The walls of her own room were… bleeding. They bled his blood, slowly coming down to the floor. The white wolf's breathing accelerated as she stared in horror. A hallucination. It had been ages since she'd had one. And the last time, Ryu had been there through the vision and comforted her. But he had only helped her through them, kept her to reality for a sshort time before another occurred. But since she met Malachite they never happened. Ryu eased the pain; Mal drove it all away. But he wasn't here anymore. He wasn't here to make her smile and laugh and take her mind off the problems. So they were here now.


    She began hyperventilating, trying to hold back the bloodcurdling screams that would be sure to wake the whole camp. Though it was really already to late to worry about waking anyone considering her first scream would have already gotten someone's attention.


    She shrunk back against the wall, feeling the warm blood through her thick fur. She shut her eyes and wished it would go away. But wishing did her no good. She was never able to make it through a hallucination alone. Definitely wasnt going to happen now. She cried a little bit, wishing that someone was here to help. Anyone. J-j-just please help m-me…

  • [fancypost bgcolor=transparent; bordercolor=transparent; borderwidth=1; width:400px; overflow:auto; text-align:justify; font-family:constantina][size=11pt]Perhaps he wasn't quite in her list of anyone, but he had come to see what all of the screaming was about. At first he was excited at the prospect of something violent happening yet he was instantly disappointed when all he met was this trembling woman against a wall. His disdain for weaklings was something he had never tried to hide in the past nor cared to hide in the future, especially when this was one of those mouthy harpies he'd watched circling his companion earlier. However-- two selfish principles kept him there. One, that he actually wanted to sleep that night without being plagued by idiot babble and, two, even this monstrous creature had experienced things like this. Many experiences in fact though his demons came in the form of different tragedies such as the reason his face was obscured and forever breathing color or how he and Wraithstatic ended up exiled from their beloved country.


    Moving forward as quietly as he could with his large frame, the ichneumon came to a stop a few steps from the wolf. "Ey woman, why yuh shivering n' wailing in a warm room?" He loomed there, but made no move to get closer or touch her, not sympathetic enough for that.

  • [align=center][fancypost bgcolor=; border: 0px; width: 400px; maxheight:; text-align: justify][font=arial][size=9pt]The scream brought Boypaw too, but for different reasons, summoned by concern and trickles of apprehension than excitement at being a witness to some violent event. Running in a dress wasn't easy, but he did it anyway, and the anticipation of an enemy murdering one of their members lowered when he saw it was a room the scream echoed from, not their border, though there was still a chance, one that disappeared entirely when he entered, finding Lock and Winter, the latter clearly in heavy distress over what B assumed had been a nightmare. He had his fair share of those, waking up with his claws digging into his pillow and quivers in his muscles, but as far as he knew, he didn't scream.


    "Hey, Winter? You're okay. You're okay now. Can you take deep breaths for me? Whatever it is, it's not real." He spoke clearly and calmly, passing Lock as he moved closer to the tormented wolf, though going slowly to keep from startling her further.

    Winter cowered on the pillows, eyes shut tight just trying to escape the smells and the blood and the world. Locksmith had entered her room, asking why she was shaking in a warm room and why she was crying. You just dont understand... the walls... are bleeding. His blood. she thought, not being able to speak while crying so hard. At first, forgetting that it was a hallucination, she couldnt understand how he didnt see the blood covering the walls or smell it either.


    Anothe person came rushing into the room. Why cant you smell it? How can you not see it? Why am i the only one? The voice was familiar. Boypaw. She looked at him, tears flowing nonstop out of her ice blue eyes. "You're okay now. Can you take deep breaths for me? She inhaled shakily then let it out slowly. Only more blood. "Whatever it is, it's not real." But it just looked so real! She could smell it, feel the warmth. How could it not be real?


    "B-b-but the w-walls," she barely managed to get out over the tears. "So much b-b-blood and... I... d-d-dont know why." Why wont they stop? Why now? Why couldn't he stay? It was all so confusing. Too much to handle at once and now she was losing her mind. Bleeding walls.

    just so you know, i chose bleeding walls because i had originally named Winter after a character in a book series who often sees bleeding walls in hallucinations.

  • [fancypost bgcolor=transparent; bordercolor=transparent; borderwidth=1; width:400px; overflow:auto; text-align:justify; font-family:constantina][size=11pt]Sounded like some sort of drug trip or a curse or maybe she was just crazy. Her stutters made him want to reach out and snatch up her maw to shut it, but he took a deep, whistling breath to cool down. Maybe he should just leave and let Boypaw handle it, but he knew he would be pissed if he had to come back in here. So... it was the room that was bothering her. Bleeding walls or something. Considering this, Locksmith rose up on his back paws. Like this, he was almost the size of a bear as he reached his large arms forward to try and coral her up. If he needed too, he would pick her up and carry her out. He was ready to go to sleep. "Come woman. Dun't dwell on it. Find yuh legs n' leave." Locksmith's patience was dwindling, but he managed to keep his voice as low as the baritone could go.


    /What book?

    The white wolf's eyes widened at Lock's size. More confused and scared she whimpered, "No... please. It-it wont help." She knew it wouldnt help her at all. This hallucination had happened several months before, before she joined the clan. Her reaction at the time wasnt nearly as bad as this, but she remembered the walls bleeding inside and out of the den. Everywhere she went the blood seemed to follow, and wherever she went she remembered seeing bloody pawprints behind her.
