I'm Sorry I Squished Your Bird

He had been exploring, for the herd was new and there were so many places to check out before he was comfortable with letting Kiada go into the crumbling buildings – and so he surveyed, sneaking into different buildings with his small self and making sure they could handle someone her side coming through, or if they were completely destroyed. What he hadn’t counted on, though, was a door falling on him. He couldn’t help the loud squawk that escaped his dark beak as he felt his bones warp and move. But suddenly there was light – he couldn’t tell, his eyes were closed, but he could sense the lightness on the other side and the pressure being lifted off him. “Kia?!?!” He whined through their bond, unable to say anything more. His mind was too wrapped around the fact that he was in such excruciating pain. There was a soothing voice from the other side of the door. “Please little bird. Open your eyes.” And he tried, he honestly tried to see who it was that was helping him, but he was so tired and in so much pain it felt as though it would take a lifetime to crack an eyelid open. He felt himself move, not on his own. His savior (unknown to him that she had been the cause of the problem) moved him onto a makeshift gurney and began to seek help. He was thankful, for the stranger with the kind voice, the one that would keep him tethered for as long as he could. Meanwhile, Kiada had simply been exploring on her own in the grounds of the herd before she felt like something was horrifically wrong. There was such silence on the other side of her bond with Khairi, a darkness that seemed to cover everything in the most terrifying way. Companions were bonded through the soul, and she felt as though a fraction of it had cracked, as if it were lost beneath that blanket of silence. But there was a small amount of that bond still left, one where a pained Kia broke through, and the painted Harpy found herself running like a fiend toward the direction she thought he had been. Adrenaline had made her feel faster than light, as though her bulky draft body didn’t slow her down as she galloped down the streets, leaving dust and rubble in her wake. Her muscles whined with the exertion but she didn’t stop, not until she beheld K’yarie heading toward her. Immediately she stopped, her hooves sliding against the stone pathways creating a terrible shrieking noise as she came to a stop and her inky ears swiveled forward in concern, seeing the little white feathers poking out from the cloth. “What happened?” She breathed, rushing toward K’yarie as her heart began to thud against her chest, as dread began to settle from within her gut. “I can still feel him, he’s still there, but something is very wrong.” She explained to K’yarie. Yes, despite the dark blanket surrounding their bond, she could feel him still there – a small tether holding on for dear life. "Talk." i think you will set yourself afire, before you realize that even you cannot conquer the sun.
