death was... inevitable for him. he had first been immobilized soul-wise, his hawk taxi out hunting and him physically (spiritually) unable to transport to another body, thus stuck blind and paralyzed in confusion as he listened to the seemingly menacing pawsteps slowly stalk towards him. fossa. rabid fossa. the five and a half month old maine coon, mangled, terrified, could smell death on its breath and reeled back, paddling his single forepaw in panic as he tried to wriggle away, though he was unable to, he was stuck, he was... useless. "help... mm..." a desperate murmur, and the male rest his cheek against the floor, begging silently for the fossa to overlook him. but it was obvious it was watching him. approaching him. needing to slaughter him. "help..." a little louder, but the bold and rabid beast had no qualms about stalking the edge of camp where he resided for the majority of his life, breathing harshly, bearing its fangs.
it fell into the uncontrollable rage all rabid beasts did, trembling, barking, shrieking with indignance, and Cabal could only cry out as he was set upon by the crazed being, torn at, bitten, scratched, and it did not stop once the rabies flowed through his veins and out onto the floor again in the form of a thousand wouds, no, it continued, angry and wanting death. the maine coon was used to agony, and so he clamped down on his lip with his upper fangs as he was snacked upon and ravaged, ravaged until he simply couldn't handle it, and he lost consciousness, though not in the safe manner- no, he was dying, and in his final thoughts, the male wished he had gotten a chance to thank HawkClan, thank the entire clan for its kindness.
and then he was gone, a bloody mass.
his hawk did return however, to his corpse, and she gave a scream of rage, winging towards the rabid fossa and smashing into it, talons and a hooked beak slashing at its throat and it wailed loudly, blood bubbling as it simply dropped to the floor. the hawk then turned limping awkwardly in a strange waddle, to Cabal's side, head bowing.
