The wolf clutched her broken child, holding it tightly to her chest. The girl's movements and noises were normal, but there was no denying the hole in her belly, the imperfection that had touched her tiny body. The coal hybrid's ears were pressed back, and she leaned into the dirt wall, curling herself to the smallest possible size around her children, the broken one clutched closest to her.

The shuffling noises came from the outside world, and the hybrid curled tighter around her children, rolling to her side so her back would be presented to the door. Larkspur was here. He would see, he would know. He would have no mercy for the child. Even Eris knew -- there was no salvation for it. Her chartreuse eyes had not focused on that hole in her since first sighting it; she could not stand to look upon it.

The rest murmured their tiny yips and whines and wriggled against her, tiny and warm things that had come from her very body. They were her life, her blood, her flesh. She sighed a shuddering sort of noise, listening with increasing dread to the shuffle and movement outside of her den.

OOC Ending: Lark tells Eris to burn the baby that's all "HNNNNGH" with a hole in its belly; Eris refuses; Larkspur storms off all "STUPID WOMAN Y U CURSE US" and the end. C:
