"Hey! Ratinic, get off of him!"
The shout from Ochaila got closer and cower until he pounced on Ratinic, causing her claws to slide down my muzzle. I squeal in pain, the fur ripping under her claws. Ratanic growled, turning over on her back to fight Ochaila. They scratched and nipped at each other, roaring and growling. I stepped back, blood dripping down my nose. The cut on my face stung, bleeding. I held it with a paw, not wanting it to bleed anymore. Ochaila soon sunk his claws into Ratanic's chest, causing her to groan in pain and slink away. Ochaila ran over to me. "Are you alright?" He asks, sounding...concerned. I shrugged slightly, laying down and resting my head on the moist and muddy ground, still holding my wound. "I'm sure the keepers will be here to get us fixed up." Ochaila sighed, closing his eyes.
I looked at the chatterboxes, who looked worried and were of course, chattering, but louder. They pointed and got keepers on the ledge.
I looked over to Ratanic, who was laying on the ground, limp. Her chest continued to bleed.
Is she...dead?
