Pant, pant...Minutes passed, and something about the ground told Tigersun that they had already crossed their borders and were now in unknown territory. Trees fell in the grasp of the fire, huge trunks cutting their way once, twice before they reached the depth of a dead forest.
"We are trapped!" Lynxshade yowled in despair, hopelessness in her weak voice. She turned right and left, back and forward, but everywhere looked the same....Will we die here?

The huge black tom raised his head to the sky, amber eyes widening as he understood what was going on above them. They are... geese! I can hear them! And they brought hope.
Now Tigersun had a plan, and he was determined to make it out alive. I'll save you, my little sister. Please hold on a little more.

A burning, tearing sensation brought Lynxshade awake.
...
"Tigersun!!!" She yowled with horror, realizing her brother had been crushed entirely by the dying tree. The black she-cat tried to push the huge tree away without any result. Despair filled her whole body as she came to the conclusion that her brother couldn't be alive anymore.
...

It's my fault... my fault... my fault...! She thought with gritted teeth, head bent down as silver tears fell down on the charred grass.A shriek of pain left her mouth as a blaze hit her back violently, pushing her away from Tigersun's death place.With a huge effort, Lynxshade dragged herself beyond the tree that had just destroyed her brother's life and let her body collapse into the water of the river. She was too tired to try and swim, so she let her body float on the filthy water while the current took her away.
Half-closed eyes stared at the last ashes that followed her in the wind. This must surely be the end.
I can't... continue.I am... sorry, brother....

..."Goodbye, my brother. I will never forget what you did for me."
