Lavenderlynx coughed aggressively. Great Starclan she made foolish choices sometimes, letting this sickness get the best of her, thinking "it'll pass". She could barely speak her voice was so hoarse, every meow sounded like a growl. But the sickness was getting worse. This felt similar as Vividripple had described just before he died... She knew she didn't have much time left. But Darlingkit, Lav couldn't just leave her. No, it was too soon. But she could barely breathe. She could feel her throat closing. She needed help, but she knew she wouldn't be able to make it to the medicine den to get help in time, that was how sick she was. Lav's body was tired and achy, she could barely move, she knew it was a matter of time before she shut down completely. Every breath was a wheeze. She sat in an her nest, in was uncomfortable but she was unable to reposition her body. She slowly reached down to one of the feathers she had shed into her nest and weaved it into the belt she wore made of a vine, along with a single feather from everyone she loved that she had lost. She inhaled the faded but lingering scent of each cat, small tears forming in her eyes. Juniperfalcon. She purred quietly at the thought of his touch. She'd be able to be with him forever again, finally. Azure-asterblast. She longed for her twin brother, who's death was unknown. She wished she could go back to those days as a kit with him. Aspenchirp and Tulipfeather. Her parents. She loved her mothers with every ounce of her body and it was heartbreaking to learn they had both died so soon to each other. Dreadedpaw. Her son. Her sweet, beautiful son, who she loved dearly. He had given her a number of roses, all now withered away, but his spirit and cheerfulness never faded, even after death. Magpie. A dear friend, she remembered the scuffle they got in first meeting, the ex-falconcat was an intruder, and slowly they bonded as she kept seeing him, nearly falling in love again, until... He stopped showing up. Vividripple. Dreadedpaw's brother. Viv died of a sickness so soon after his warrior ceremony. It hurt to see him gone so soon, he was her last piece of hope. And then, as she ran her paw on the last feather. Lavenderlynx. Herself. She wasn't going to live much longer. She was ready to join the loved ones she lost. She'd leave this belt for Darlingkit, a final memory of everything Lav had been through and something for her to carry on Lav's legacy. For her to make her own memories, live through her own stories, and add the feathers of her own loved ones onto the belt. Lavenderlynx, and everyone she loved, would never leave Darlingkit's side, at least spiritually. They'd always be there to guide her through the toughest of times. She'd never stop loving her. And so, with her final breath, she closed her eyes, the voices of everyone she had loved, everyone she had lost, flooded her ears. She opened her eyes to see the starry pelts of her children in front of her. She cried tears of joy and picked herself up effortlessly to hold them in an embrace. She looked up to see herself surrounded by her family, her friends, and Juniperfalcon, her love. She was finally back with everyone she loved. Everyone she cared about. At last... She was finally home. [oorp- hey guys! As you know (I mean I hope, you just read the srp, right?) Lavenderlynx has died. I was honestly surprised I kept her this long, I didn't think I had the motivation to, and if it weren't for all of you guys, she probably would have died back in November lol. I'd like to thank everyone who's character played a part in Lav's life! <333333]
