Milkweedpaw, He / They / It, FalconClan Medic appie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ TW: Blood + Rat ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a nice, normal day. The sky was sunny and bright and Miku was out on a walk. around the mountain. He was bored and tired, but not enough to really do anything about it. So instead he walked, trying to remember where Abyssalabsence had showed him they collected some plants from. It hadn't been too long, he should be able to find it. Yet the longer it searched, the most lost it got and the less it knew where to find the plants he'd been looking for. After a bit, Milkweedpaw paused. He looked around, surrounded by a small patch of bushes with wicked thorns poking off of them. How did They get here? He didn't remember and could care less. Miku turned, padding off towards the bushes. he pushed through them, the thorns pricking its fur, but not its skin. He pushed through the bushes and was safely halfway through when he felt something small and furry skitter over their paw. Miku let out a high-pitched shriek, stumbling back. He tripped over the furry thing; they didn't know if it was the same one or another one. It crashed down to the ground, thorns stabbing into his legs. And then he felt a sharp pain in one of his hindpaws, the one that had stepped on the furry thing. Miku let out another shriek, kicking out and punting the small rodent. It let out a squeak as it skittered away. He writhed around in the bushes for a bit. They could smell a really, really pungent smell that they didn't like and feel wetness on his paws, but he didn't question it. Miku wriggled its way through the bushes, trying to push down the panic blossoming in its chest. He shoved through the thorns, leaping out on the other side of the bushes and tumbling to the ground. What was this hurt? What was that thing? What did they do to deserve this?! It'd been trying to do a good thing! Miku flopped there on the ground for a couple seconds, breathing hard and trying to calm his nerves and racing heart. After a bit he shoved himself up. Its paws didn't want to cooperate, but their wings had somehow been saved from the thorns and the creature. His paws shrieked, but he lifted up off of the ground and flapped off the best he could. Today was not a good day anymore. :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, Miku got decked by a rat and a couple bushes. It's not good at surviving, okay? Now it's time to face the garlic.
Hats off to @-sumacberry for the glorious idea.
