DEATH IS GONNA COME FOR ME

The red liquid glistened all around her, reaching her paws. She was inside the den and it was filling up, the warm bloodied water rising higher and higher. Pineconekit tried to run away, but the thick liquid didn't let her, slowly swallowing her whole. Only her head remained above it and she looked down into the dark, red void.
The kitten was met with green eyes looking back at her - not her own, nor her sister's, but ones Pineconekit knew the most. Cedarsnap's, her father's eyes were watching her through the liquid, menacing, and a paw reaching out towards her, closer and closer to the surface, until it broke through, brushing against her soft form. Claws unsheathed and clung onto her pelt, dragging her down with them.
Pineconekit woke up with a scream, "Dad!" Her breathing quick, an unfamiliar pelt against her body, legs trembling. She blinked once, twice, then realised she had been dreaming. Pineconekit wished she could bury herself in her dad's warm fur, but he was not there. And would never be anymore.
The kitten swallowed her loud sobs. She was aware of the other kittens glaring at her angrily at having woken them up, and she felt angry at them in return. She saw the way the other caregivers looked at her with pity in their eyes. But she didn't want their empty pity, their sympathy. They didn't understand - no one did. No one, except maybe... Daisynose.
With angry stomps, she walked out of the nursery, tears still falling down her face like a sudden downpour. She didn't care who all saw or heard her, all she wanted was her dads. Why couldn't she be with them anymore? It wasn't fair, it wasn't fair! Pineconekit found her paws leading her towards the warriors den where most the adult cats slept through the night. Slipping inside, she held the loudest of her sobs at bay, only letting sniffles escape. She looked through the darkness at the cats, looking for the familiar pelt of her sister, with fur as soft as Cedarsnap's.
It took her a while, but near the edge of the den she spotted Daisynose's form shifting slightly in her sleep, body falling and rising with each breath. Pineconekit didn't hesitate and walked over, avoiding the other warriors with her paws and gaze all the same. She knew they would all stare if she disturbed their rest and she was not interested in more empty words and pitying looks. She's gotten enough of those from the other caregivers and warriors already.
Now at her sister's nest, Pineconekit slipped next to Daisynose's body, curling herself close to the soft pelt, burying herself in her. She closed her eyes without a word to anyone, hoping to fall asleep quickly and dreamlessly.

☘︎ OOC: Wait for @Daisynose to reply! After that, feel free to see and reflect on Pineconekit, but do not interact with her, she is avoiding everyone and is only trying to sleep next to her sister
