Krystalbreeze stopped, sort of near where the medicine cat den would be located and paused to catch her breath, her calico fur sticking up as she flicked her ears about to listen for anything. The young 13 moon old she-cat was nervous, and her body shook with alarm, fear, and worry all placed in one big package. Brightstar was in danger, and that scared her. The cobwebs on her shoulder had staunched the blood but were stained crimson with her own blood. The calico she cat lowered her head to breathe in and out to catch her breath. "He is completing the ceremonies...and Brightstar is not doing well!" Krystalbreeze shook her head slightly "I should have never left!"
"Mother, we must keep going, we can not stay put here." Aurora murmured softly, turning to her mother and going to her side, pressing against the distraught former clan cat. Her eyes softening as she understood what her mother was going through. Krystalbreeze had given up friends, and family for a mate and he turned on them...hurting them. Aurora nuzzled her mother "The male up there will do fine, but we must not stay... I know it hurts not to be there with your friend but you must keep ourselves secret long enough....we can not afford to be seen now. " Aurora spoke soothingly, her eyes held saddness and empathy for her mother as she pressed into the warm fur.
