They're out of there like a flash, because danger is imminent and altogether too real. Strongclaw limps as he runs, and Sablefrost is slower than she used to be; the city, and the days after it, have taken a toll on both of them. But still, they're running. He refuses to think of it as fleeing- they're retreating, saving their own lives, preserving themselves. The forest turns to rock beneath their paws. By unspoken agreement, they're headed towards the back of the territory. It doesn't have a precise ending, because no cat really bothers to mark borders. The fact is that it's land, and it's theirs- they know it, and so should everyone else. But they're following the gorge, furrowing a path out of the place they both knew as home and as hell.
Bit of a continuation on from Day 11's 'Voyage'.
