[align=center][div style="max-width: 425px; text-align: justify; text-indent: 30px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 11px; padding-top: 10px;"]Death gripped at the edges of all the creatures that walked the planet, whether it be today or next year, death would come to all, even if they didn't think it would.
Chickenbone had never thought about death before. His parents before his adoption had been long gone by the time he had found himself able to think clearly, and he hadn't even so much as thought about where they were or why they were no longer around where he was. Of course, he held that primal fear that there was going to be something wrong one day, that he was going to be eaten. But that was due to him being a prey animal, he truly didn't know what it meant to be eaten, didn't know that it meant death, simply that it was bad.
So when he heard the mournful cry of Goldenluxery, Chicken's heart broke, and he ran.
Ran toward the home and the gathering of bodies, watching as the tigress pulled the love of her life close to her body and broke down, and saw with his eyes as those around her tried to comfort her, or were simply confused as to what this was. Chickenbone hadn't known Sam, and as of the time being didn't really know Goldie either. He knew she was adopted family somehow, but he was young and didn't quite understand what it all meant.
What he did see was his father, head bowed and quiet, asking questions. So Chickenbone would weave his way through the larger creatures before meeting his father, grabbing onto a leg from behind and watching carefully, eyes looking towards the captain in sorrow, in apology. He truly was sorry for her loss.
