"..C-can't RockStar.. see that I.. grieve as much for L-lostCall.. as much as she grieves for her..?" She meowed.
"DeadFace, i-it was just a misunderstanding, she didn't see you.." BayFall mewed.
"I..I'm going to leave.. MossClan, BayFall.. I don't... belong here.." DeadFace said, staring at BayFall with her only eye.
"But, everyone cares about you, DeadFace!" He retorted. "I care about you!"
"..H-ho..how many cats that care about me doesn't... matter now, BayFall.. Most of m-my.. kin are gone, and I j-just.. don't feel accepted here anymore.. Not e-even RockStar kn-knew I was right behind her.. That I was alive.." She weakly mewed. "S-she.. thought I had died, w-when-"
"..DeadFace? W-what's wrong..?" StarlingWhisker mewed.
BayFall had already treated him, he just needed to rest.
"Nothing, StarlingWhisker." She meowed, padding out.
He wanted to give chase, but something stopped him. He turned back to StarlingWhisker, reminding himself about the vision by the ThunderPath.
"StarlingWhisker? What really happened?" BayFall mewled.
"...I can't talk about it." The deputy whispered.
"StarlingWhisker, I can help you! Just tell me!" He repeated.
"No, you can't BayFall. You can't help something that's-" StarlingWhisker meowed calmly.
"YES, I CAN HELP YOU! YOU'RE JUST NOT LETTING ME! IF YOU WANT RATTUFT TO KILL YOU, THEN GO AHEAD! THEN I'D HAVE YET ANOTHER CAT TO GRIEVE THE LOSS OF!" BayFall hissed, tears dripping from his eyes. "I AM SO SICK OF SEEING EVERY CAT AROUND ME DROP DEAD, OR LEAVE ME BEHIND!"
StarlingWhisker fell silent.
"I-I-" BayFall said, padding out.
"BayFall, wait!" StarlingWhisker hissed.
