that...that was her name, wasn't it? yes, she remembered. she remembered mama calling her that when she was little. and now, her new family called her that. palepaw and flamepaw and silentstorm and all the others. yes, alice was her name.
hey, can you hear me?
that was a question. alice winced, straining to hear the voice that sounded an entire world away. her vision was blurring around the edges and it was getting hard to breath.
i'm gonna put you on my back, you gotta hold on, okay?
was that silentstorm? no, he would just pick her up and run off and be done with it. this cat had to be smaller. an apprentice? not flamepaw. this one sounded like a boy.
oh, right, he'd asked a question. alice forced herself to nod, and whimpered with the effort. everywhere was hurting. it hurt so much she couldn't see.

then there was another cat there, and palepaw was rambling, and alice's world was spinning. "it...it hurts." she whimpered, hot tears springing up suddenly, and she buried her face in cobrapaw's thick fur. "make it stop, make it go away."

at her friends words, alice frowned, unsure how to respond. she herself had absolutely no interest in any of the toms here. they weren't like her. she was weird. they were all pretty normal, and mostly older. besides, she didn't really care about having a mate. she cared about adventures and dragons and treasure hunting.
"umm...no i haven't seen them." she said, swishing her tail uncomfortably. "actually i don't think i've ever met dogkit. and don't tell anyone this, but..." she leaned forward so she could whisper next to palepaw's ear, "i'm pretty sure cobrapaw's gonna be taken by flamepaw."

but then she would miss flamepaw and palepaw and silentstorm and everyone else. no, no, she couldn't die! she had to stick around for a bit longer. "i'm h-here." her voice sounded garbled, and she spat out a wad of sticky red blood.

"pale...m-my shoulder..." she whimpered, and let out a shriek as she tried to move it and burst into tears. "starclan it hurts, it hurts!" she screamed.

"sometimes it's grey, or yellow and orange and red and pink." she didn't understand what her friends point was, but she was highly frustrated at this point and in an excellent mood for an argument.
alice glanced at the little green leaves and licked them up, gagging on the bitter taste. "that's disgusting." she spat, then suddenly hissed as she felt a fresh bout of pain in her shoulder.

ooc; she smashed into a rock and crushed the bones in her shoulder

her stormy grey eyes caught sight of her best friend, and she trotted over, laughing a little at zinnia's voiced concerns. "nah, this is her normal state." alice explained, nodding her head quickly. "she's a little mad."

"so are we going to war? a fight with rogues? or is our captain training us for battle?"

stringy, thin meat.
starvation.
claws slicing her skin.
slipping in and out of consciousness.
alice gazed down the edge of the cliff she stood at. a real cliff, not a figurative one. she tilted her head, and wondered how far down it went. if she jumped, how long would it take her to go splat on the ground? the female giggled a little. "splat." she whispered. "ding dong, the witch is dead."
the brown tabby kicked at a little pebble and sat it clattering down the side of the cliff. she lowered her body so she was lying down and rested her paws over the ridge. her head lay between them, her stormy grey eyes staring down, down, not seeing the bottom. "clash, crash, crush, smash." she hummed softly.

"d-don't let m-me die." she coughed, straining to keep her head up. but then suddenly the darkness over took her and her head fell, her breath weak and shallow, unconscious.

it was the female's gentle voice that caught her attention, and her ears rotated in that direction. "hmm?" she mumbled softly, eyes still on the cliff. she kept her voice at a whisper. "how do you know? have you ever fallen down a cliff? maybe i could survive. or maybe i'd die and be done with this place." she patted the earth beneath her paws to show what she was talking about. what would it be like to die? no more pain, probably. she could join starclan. or the dark forest...wherever she was headed.

ooc; oh no worries <3 i posted an open thread identical to this one cause i thought you forgot about it. i'll leave that one open and just say alice came to the cliff twice. cx

"that's my name, don't wear it out." she said softly, and leaned a little bit more over the edge, quavering a little. "how far down do you think it goes, palepaw?" right, that was her name. palepaw.
alice stood up and balanced herself so each was nearly lined up with the edge of the cliff, then stepped carefully so she was walking along the ridge. "would i scream if i fell? fell, falling, fallen, fall...it would be red like the leaves because it's fall." alice giggled a little.

ooc; changing the name of this cause i accidentally made a duplicate.

but what did they smell like? alice paused, thinking. the quarrel had been at sunningrocks, which she had seen before in her adventures. it was across the river though, which made it harder to smell. but if she remembered correctly...
"umm, kind of like us i think. but less fishy and more foresty. like trees." she grinned sheepishly, realizing she did not know the scent very well.
