MarbleTail painfully groaned, her eyes slowly rolling up to see the fox pinning her down staring in another direction. She'd inhale, preventing a whimper. ''I-I'm not done w-with you yet!'' She'd growl, holding up her hind leg and kicking at the fox's stomach surprisingly.

~~~

He'd yap in surprise, clumsily tumbling off of MarbleTail. ''H-how are you alive!'' He'd clench his teeth, curling up on himself as he finally stood. MarbleTail just stared, before whimpering quietly at the feeling of cold blood oozing down from her neck. She'd find herself immobile, as she felt the wretched pain shocking her. ''No matter if you can't even stand..'' He'd chuckle, his surprised expression turning smug. His tail would wave back and forth gently, and he would threateningly snarl, baring his teeth before lunging with his front paws outstretched. She'd go limp, feeling useless as she couldn't move.

~~~

Not again..

~~~

''Get away from her!'' She'd hear BlackTrail snap,  quickly lunging at the fox midair and tussling him to the ground roughly. The fox would yap, tussling around and throwing himself roughly to the side. MarbleTail would continue to stare in shock, trembling at the thought that she nearly passed. [Died.]

~~~

Why did he come here?

I thought I was gone for good..

~~~

''G-get off of me you runt!'' The fox would growl pathetically, his tail frozen in place beneath his hind legs. BlackTrail would ignore his comment, leaning down to drag his fangs into the fox's neck. As his fangs burrowed into the Fox's neck, The fox would howl out painfully. ''I-I'm s-sorry! I'm s-sorry!'' The fox repeated, clenching his teeth regretfully. BlackTrail would quickly get up, kicking the side of the fox with his hind leg roughly. ''Get out of here.'' He'd order, glaring. The fox's eyes widened, and he'd quickly scramble off. 

~~~

He'd look back at MarbleTail, his gaze softening. He'd pad up to her struggling self, nudging her. ''Y-you alright MarbleTail?'' He'd narrow his eyes slightly, looking at the numerous scratches beneath her fur. ''W-what.. I-I thought I was..'' She'd mumble, wincing as the pain of the neck wound shocked her. His eyes would slowly roll down to look at her neck, his eyes widening. ''M-MarbleTail, we need to get you to a healer, now!'' He'd yelp, gently lifting MarbleTail up from her scruff as to not cause her any more pain. He'd struggle to lift her, as she obviously wasn't a kit. He'd grunt as he finally lifted her up, struggling to walk over to the healers den. 

~~~

It was being kept in well condition for kits and or the injured. 

~~~

As he'd throw himself along with MarbleTail into the healers den, RedWing rushed over. FennecPaw was on the other side of the den, with a cut blinding one side of her face. MarbleTail would wince as she hit the ground, curling up on herself. ''S-sorry MarbleTail.'' BlackTrail would whimper in remorse. MarbleTail weakly chuckled. ''I-It's f-fine..'' She'd respond quietly. ''What happened to MarbleTail?'' RedWing clenched her teeth worriedly, looking down at MarbleTail's deep bite mark. ''She got attacked by their beta..'' He'd withdrawal from speaking the beta's name aloud. ''T-That was t-their beta..?'' MarbleTail mumbled, her eyes narrowing. BlackTrail simply nodded.

~~~

MarbleTail would glance away. She'd quietly sigh, wincing at the sharp pain from her neck. ''I'll see what I can do for her..'' RedWing would sigh. ''O-oh, what happened to our healer?'' BlackTrail would quickly add. ''..She died.'' Redwing hesitantly spoke aloud, glancing down at MarbleTail. BlackTrail would take a step back, eyes widened. ''W-What?..''He'd mumble. RedWing nodded, sighing in remorse. RedWing would lower down onto her haunches, picking up a few chervil leaves with her paw. She'd gently hand them to MarbleTail, who chewed them up and spat them out. RedWing would extract the juice from the leaves with her paw, padding it onto the neck wound. MarbleTail would wince, whimpering quietly. She'd lean over, lifting a glob of cobwebs. She'd gently rub it onto the neck wound. RedWing would mumble to herself. ''W-What is it?'' BlackTrail would cock his head to the side. ''H-Her wound is pretty bad. It'll take at least.. Two moons to heal?'' She'd toss her head to the side. She'd pick up some Dock leaves, handing them to MarbleTail so she could chew them up. ''B-But she'll be fine, right?'' He'd chuckle nervously, shuffling his paws. RedWing would nod as MarbleTail spat out the Dock leaves, and RedWing would apply them to her scratches softly. ''Good..'' He'd sigh, glancing back at the entrance of the den.

~~~

''W-Worried?'' MarbleTail chuckled. She'd whimper, feeling the sharp pain of her scratches. He'd laugh nervously, looking back at her.

~~~

''D-Don't worry t-too much, o-okay..?''

~~~

''O-Of course.''
