Instructions

This is part 3. Please read parts 1 and 2 before continuing. Additionally, the same warnings of death, grief, hallucinations, anxiety, and panic attacks still apply. ... ❝ You say that we're already done ❞ For a long, long while, Shooting-starsnapdragon wouldn't- couldn't look. She couldn't listen. She couldn't breathe. She couldn't do anything. She couldn't do ANYTHING! ❝ But what does that even mean? ❞ Oh, flames, what had she done? Why could she just... love..? Everyone else seemed to get by just fine, so why couldn't she? ´~Would you really leave me?~` Sho's feathery head slowly lifted from her paws. ´´T-t... T-t-tal... I-I'm- I- I'm s-sorr-so-sorry.`` Faer voice croaked. ´~Tell me... Goodbye at least~` Faer sunshine's voice seemed to echo around faem, soft and broken, almost like she was crying. ´´I-I... c-can- c-c-can't... I... I-I-I c-c-c-can't-`` A soft warmth suddenly flooded over the shifted hybrid. The feeling of fur and the weight of another cat wrapped around her. *...Please... For us?...* Another voice echoed around the darkness, wriggling deep inside her. Another familiar weight wrapped around her, curled fur brushing against her skin. Oh, the warmth nearly burned, but she didn't want it to stop. She didn't want it to end so soon... But it did... Everything had to. ❝ You tell me to open my eyes ❞ The weights suddenly lifted as the warmth slowly faded. ´´W-w-wait... P-p-please... D-don't- D-d-don't l-leave m-m-me... P-p... /please/...`` There was a long moment of silence before an unfamiliar echo answered. ´'Don't forget... To say goodbye to them... Now, breathe.'` The she-cat suddenly gasped, eyelids flickering open. It struggled for air as its eye adjusted to the darkness. It was... the shore... ❝ Thank God it was just a dream ❞ Was it all just a... But it felt real? It was... /real/. It had to be... right..? Shooting-star hesitently lifted onto her paws, coughing up drops of saltwater. Roses limbs burned and shook, but ro had to move. She had to... leave... ❝ I guess that's how you know that it's love ❞ With a final cough and wheeze, the warrior slowly stepped away from the waters. It shallowed quickly, but the droplets clung to buds patchy fur. Blooms chest felt like it might burst, and blooms paws felt like they were to simply fall off if bloom walked too quickly. She had to find home, though. She had to go... To leave... But what if..? Oh, her blossom... And her sunshine... What if they... ❝ When you're scared to death they'll leave ❞ Oh, flames! What was she thinking?! Why would anyone want to see her? All she had done was simply- ´'Don't forget...'` The she-cat whipped around as the voice bounced around her. No... No! No, this wasn't real! This wasn't real! Where was it even coming from? Sho couldn't see anything but the rock shore where she had been. Where she had watched the sunset with awe just... Wait... How long had she been gone? Was she still- ´'...To say goodbye'` ´´S-st-stop- S-stop it! St-stop it! G-get- get out- out o-of m-m-my head! G-get... Get out!`` Her voice was broken. It was cracked and broken as she screamed at nothing. ´'Don't forget...'` Sobs escaped the she-cat as tears began again. Oh, why couldn't she stop it? Why could she just... live? ❝ Just say that you'll never leave ❞ She... could..? She could... live. There was an answer right outside of PyroClan. The place she had always dreamed of. She could... leave..? ´'...To say goodbye...'` The warrior's eye narrowed. They wouldn't. They wouldn't... forget... But they would go... They would... leave... It was for the best, after all... She would leave, but never forget... Never... ... Right..?
