There was a silence that came after Bullrush's words. Dew and Daffodil looked shocked, while Birch glared at Bullrush in silent anger. Thistle had drawn his lips back, and his pupils were constricted. Thorn stood, staring at Bullrush in shock for a second, before her expression changed. Her face was contorted in rage. She then spoke, her voice icy and her gaze full of daggers, "What gives you the right to say things like that? Is it that you're oh so special. What, you say you'll follow commands? Then follow this one. Go eat a piece of horse dung you entitled brat. You have no honour. You are worth nothing more than a filthy human. If you ever say something like that again, I will tear your ears off, and feed them to a cat. Do you understand?", She looked like she could kill Bullrush. Her teeth were bared, showing her four sharp fangs and her eyes blazed like orange and blue fire. Birch stepped forward. "Who are you to judge others?", He said in a toxic voice to Bullrush. Everyone turned to Birch in surprise. Thorn had never heard him talk before. Bullrush too looked disoriented. He seemed to snap back into anger once he acknowledged what Birch had said. To Thorn's shock, Bullrush leaped toward Birch in rage. But something stopped him in midair and threw him out of the air. It was a pale gold furred doe. Daffodil. She had her lips drawn back in anger. "You have made a mistake.", She hissed. Then bit down onto Bullrush's leg. A shout of anger came from the side. Bigwig shoved them apart with a grunt. "Why is it that I come back from a walk to see rabbits fighting?!", He shouted. Bullrush's wrist was bleeding slightly and blood was running down onto his paw. "He started this-", Thistle began, but bigwig cut him off. "I don't care who started this mess! Off to your burrows, all of you!", He turned and strode away before they could argue.
