RP WITH EMBER :)

Bear always felt like a monster. He was massive, lumbering to and fro, the ground rumbling beneath him with every step, as if any moment an earthquake would appear and split the world in two. His face was covered with battle scars, too, which only made people stare at him. Or worse, look away. Once his mother said they were beautiful, like constellations dotting the night sky. But stars made people smile, and seeing him only made them frown. So she must have been lying to make him feel better. ''Am I a monster now? ''After months of surviving in the wild, Bear was so achingly thin you could see every bone in his body, sharp and protruding. His fur was dull and umkempt. He was still large, nothing would stop that, but now it just felt like a practical joke the universe was playing on him. The allusion of size when he was starving inside. ''Not that I care. ''Bear frowned. ''At all. ''The pack changed him. He had purpose in life now. Order came with sacrifice. Peace was the result of war. Love. . .  images flashed through his head, of a she-cat from long ago, her face now blurry in his mind  . . . Well, love was irrelevant. He walked along the mountainside, searching for a familiar face. Soon enough, Bear saw her. Eagle''. The one that I must kill.''  He took a shuddering breath and put one foot in front of another, which was harder than he thought, until they were within feet of each other. Until their eyes locked for the first time in months. "Hello." He smiled crookedly. "Miss me?"
