Canyonswoop's eyes widened as he was paralized in shock and fear- whole body shaking- and no more sounds. All he'd worked for.. Everything... All gone.. Every death he had caused- Every heartache. Was all for nothing? No. No, there had to be a reason behind his harsh ways. Maybe it was all in his head, maybe it was all just a game. Maybe he had no reasons. Perhaps, just maybe.. he was doing it in selflessness. Or perhaps the cats deserved to be treated the way they were. Or maybe he was just the.. insane, flea-brained cat everyone mocked about. Maybe he was always going to be the mousebrain. his lip curled sadly, as he felt the pain of his wounds. He saw himself as a kit, his life flashing before his eyes. His brother and sister, Mocking him and bullying him. "Mousebrain!" Hissed his mother, Fernflower, whacking Tallkit upside the head with claws unsheathed. "Haha! Look Violetkit, Tallkit's not so great after all!" Spat Coalkit, lashing his tail. Tallkit winced in pain, blood dripping from his ears and into his eyes and onto his nose. Pain swelled near his head where he head been hit, as he backed away sadly. His gaze flickered to look at his father, Quailbevy, who gazed with hate upon the kits and then looked away when Tallkit spotted him. His eyes flickered as he caught up to what was happening. No. He couldn't die yet.. there was too much to live for. Yet his body ached in numerous places, and his eyesight was blurry. But, he shoved himself to wary paws and dragged himself away, hissing at the cats as the snagged their claws into his pelt. [anyone can kill him at this moment, first one to do it gets to.. if that helps o-o.. i kinda feel a little sad for canyon bc of his background.. oh well tho.]
