Shallow's head hung, defeat pooling in her tears. 

"I protected you," she whispered her unsibs. "I protected you all!" Swinging to face Coontail, she mumbled, "Was your safety not enough? Did it not work? You're still alive, are you not? Why me?" 

Coontail shifted uncomfortably. "Stop asking me questions, murderer," he growled, widening his stance in case of a fight. "You were the one who killed them, so I don't understand your talk of our safety." He spat out the word with venom. "Besides, I can fight for myself." 

Shallow swallowed with hurt applied on her face like jewels imbedded in her scales. "Mossy?" she murmured. "Mink? You guys- I'm not evil. You know that. You don't think I'd do it, right? I care about you! I care- I cared about you all!" 

Wrapping a comforting wing around Mink, Mossy sighed. "Shallow, no one here trusts you. I'm sorry, but you need to leave." 

"I. . .I d-" Shallow stammered, her wings trembling. 

Coontail stepped in front of her. "Go. Now." 

Drawing strength from herself, Shallow stood up straight and snarled, "Okay. But have fun surviving without me." 

Her wings flapping open in a graceful way, Shallow took off, flying away from her ex-unsibs. 

I hope they all miss me, she thought bitterly. 

SHALLOW has been exiled. She was the WEAK WANNABE HEALER.
