X darted from Kala's side and with a sheesh of pure rage that sound un-puma like he used his powerful body to attack the male who had Zhales throat in his maws. He aimed to sink hooked claws in shoulder blades and teeth into the back of the cranium and pull him away from Zhales limp form. That is, if his move was successful.
-
Ezmere dodged a deadly wound by swiping Zhale away, but he was completely unaware of X's attack. He struggled to escape by shuffling back, but he tripped over a rock, badly twisted his leg, and crashed to the ground. Dust flew up as he struck the ground.
Too weak to even raise his head, Ez released a hiss of shallowness, his eyes beginning to close. His raging heartbeat was out of control at first but quickly slowed.
Kala heard the hiss from the cave. "Ezmere! NO!!" she shrieked in a regaining of the voice. Though it hurt terribly, she sprang to her feet and struggled to trot out of the cave.
On her way to the battle scene she remembered her dark past. How evil she was.
And now it was her turn to make things right. -
Zhale's breath came in shallow pants, and he lay limply, eyes closed.
-
He flung the male away in disgust and lept to Zhales side. "Hey stick with me." He growled quietly and started to lick the biggest wound, his throat. He sped to his den and grabbed herbs and was back within seconds. Pressing the saliva of herbs into his pelt he wrapped cob webs around his neck. "Stay alive you son of a.." He growled.
-
Zhale groaned and shifted just barely, wincing at the sharp pain in his throat and head.
-
Does X notice that Kala is gone...?)
Kala limped her way over to Ezmere, falling at his feet. She managed to stand again and hoarsely whispered, "Oh no, I knew this would happen."
It was a strange thing to say, but it was all that came from Kala's mouth. Her tongue rasped over Ezmere's bloody neck and that's when the tears came. "Ezmere, I'm sorry..." she weeped, not knowing what to say.
Ezmere groaned in an agonizing pain, twisting his bruised head to speak to Kala. Their paws touched as he wheezed, "I didn't want... w-want you to t-t-to love me... I just needed to c-ca-care for your m-mum and keep you sa..."
"Ezmere!" shrieked Kala, watching in despair as the dying he-puma choked on his own blood. "No! Ezmere! Please!!"
Ez's last word was this: "Safe." -
X eyes flashed to where Kala stood, weeping over the other male. Going back to his work he hefted Zhale onto his back and gentle carried him to his cave. He dipped his large head towards Kala as he passed and once in his cave he lowerd Zhale down onto the cool cavern floor.
-
Kala backed away from Zhale and X, baring her fangs in anger. A solemn growl rumbled in her throat. "You killed him!" she sobbed, cradling Ezmere's aloft head.
-
(I mean, when she saw them)
-
Zhale groaned. "For...you own..." He coughed violently. "Safety."
-
"No! He never hurt me!" cried Kala wistfully. She turned to X with a hurt expression. "And you..."
She gulped. "You..." -
He met her eyes with own own shattered yellow gaze. "I wasn't going to allow a stranger kill my friend." He said quietly before finishing up the wrappings. He then looked back up towards Kala with a sad expression.
-
Kala choked slightly on the oncoming tears. "He was no stranger..." she wheezed. "He... he protected my sick mother..."
-
Bump)
-
Zhale coughed again. "Kala..." He layed his head back down with a groan. "He couldn't be trusted." Just then, soft paw steps were heard as Shira bounded up. Her face remained calm, but her eyes held some sense of dread as she took in Zhale's wounds and Ezmere's body, as well as Kala's barely healed scrapes. "What happened?" She asked X quietly, her voice low but trembling slightly.
