No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
The day was warm. Well, not just warn, it was more than just warm. It was burning, sweltering even. The heat craved an audience and demanded its attention. It sent its seething waves upon the clans, seeking justice for their relishing in the springs cool weather. No clouds were in sight, no reprieve from this cruel vengeance within view. No breeze crept slowly upon them to take the edge off. Just heat. Burning, relentless heat. It was uncomfortable, and there was no escape from it. None whatsoever.
But at least the trees branches offered some shade, some cooling effect on Thunderclan's territory. So it was crazy to think that someone would be basking in the sun, right? No one would want to do that right now, it was so hot your blood would boil, or so it seemed. But there lay a red and white tom, beautifully built to be a masterpiece. He was artwork, that's what he was. He was beautiful, he deserved to be on display for everyone to see. His eyes, now closed, were almost a perfect match for the top color of his pelt, a reddish orange. They were brighter though, containing flecks of gold that sparkled no matter what. His form was lithe and erect, always proper. He was not short, but not tall either, but somehow he had this way of seeming larger than he was. He was a pretty boy, sterotypical confident and charisma included. But what warriors didn't realize was that it was all an act. A facade in order to keep his popularity. He didn't think he was handsome, or even nice. He was an *. An ugly * at that in his mind. Just like his mother always told him he was.
A snake laid dead beside him. Blood pooled onto snake rocks from the separated body and head. The tom had left it there, not caring to clean up his mess. He'd do that later. He was actually kind of hoping it would ward off any snakes that wanted to come out. They would see their friend and be like "oohhh noooo my ffrrriieennndd" and go away. He would just kill any other that disrupted his quiet time anyway. Not like it mattered really. The warrior took a deep breath, wondering what would happen if he was bitten. He would probably nonchalantly go back to camp, ask for what's-his-face and get healed up. Hopefully it wouldn't be one of those poisonous things. That'd be terrible. Yes, he couldn't afford that. It would mess with his bad boy routine if he was stuck in the medicine cat den for moons because he was being an idiot and wanted some sun. Or he could die. Which would be even worse.
Speaking of death, what happened afterwards? You know, after you died. He often pondered this. Most thought that you would go to Starclan, but Sunstorm didn't believe in starclan. Who the hell would want to help this pitiful, miserable excuse for warriors now? They were disease ridden, angry overgrown rats with claws. And that's forgetting the violent tenancies and the, fight first think later approach all the leaders seemed to take. And the leaders were just popular warriors now! All because "their prreecciouuss starclan" left due to the moonstone being buried under a pile of rocks. They acted like it was tragic. Like Starclan was the only thing keeping them at peace with each other. Suck it up, be a warrior, and move on. That was his philosophy. They didn't need Starclan to civilized.
Honestly. The clans were no better than a group of mangy rogues now.
He let out a sigh. He was getting hot, but he was too lazy to move. All that thinking about Starclan and the clans got him worked up. He breathed deeply, trying to calm his thoughts. He didn't get worked up alot, but when he did it was bad. A warrior was bound to come rain on his parade here soon, they always did, so he figured he might as well calm down a little so he didn't accidently cut their head off or anything. You know, just normal stuff.
