WAIT FOR ME HEAVEN
(i'm here 'til i die)
[/td][/tr][/table](i'm here 'til i die)
Talia looks up from her and Malkyn's little cove when she hears a telltale screech coming from somewhere in the territory, and what she hears makes her blood run cold. Panic comes alive in her chest, building and building in suffocating amounts as she scrambles onto all fours and dashes outside the nest, pulling sharply at the bond between her and her wife. Mudwater sloshes around her, staining her pristine pelt a dark grey, and she doesn't even care - doesn't even spare the patterns across her fur a second glance as more and more voices start to fill the air with bitter dread and panicked songs. She couldn't lose - she couldn't lose another one, she couldn't lose another daughter after Melanie, after Adelaide, after Kari...
She arrives at the scene with a desperate look on her face, snapping her jaws in the air if anybody got in her way. Get away, they need to get away, step back - her worried expression overtakes her usually calm features to burn deep in her turquoise eyes. There's a cage on top of the hole, a cage door (she can't tell what it's made of but it's there); she can't find where it opens, how did it even close in the first place? I don't have time.
"Delilah!" Her voice echoes around the chasm, peering into the darkness below to stare at her daughter. She doesn't seem hurt but they don't know for sure yet, and she tugs again at the bond. Everything she sees, she's transferring over to her wife, so she scours the cage opening before deciding that she's likely large enough to tear it open... or so she hopes.
Her hind-talons wrap tightly around one rung of the cage, and she spreads her massive wings out, allowing them to unfurl to their full length. With a soft breath, a prayer to Ghil, she jumps up and follows it with a flap of her wings, muscles straining as she lifts only enough until her body is stretched from where it's still anchored to the cage. Teeth grinding together, she keeps flying, pulling, yanking at the rung and hoping that it'll give and come off.
ooc. i wasn't sure if you wanted us to have the cage door removed just like that so feel free to say whether it works or not!
