BloodBane got up groggily from where he had been napping on a pile of lava rocks. Blinking, he gave a short stretch and limped his way to the exit of the Apprentice Den. Once he reached the exit, however, he paused. "Where am I going, anyway? I might as well stay here."
He made his painful way back to the heap of rocks and eased himself down with a lazy yawn. "Was I supposed to meet Shadefang anywhere? I don't remember. Whatever." His heavy-lidded eyes drifted closed. "My paws hurt." He had said it so many times that he wasn't even aware when he said it anymore.

The young wolf fell into a troubled doze, his bruised paws twitching and sharp flank rising and falling rapidly. Troubled thoughts masked as dreams and drifted with icy horror through his sleeping mind...

Shadefang padded into the apprentice's den, he had been in the clearing all day long waiting for his lazy apprentice.
"Blood Bane!" he growled waking up the little slacker.
He lashed his tail.
"You were supposed to meet me two hours ago at the Scorched Trees! Now get up and train or you'll never be a warrior." He gave a really hard nudge on Blood Bane's rib cage.
"I will be waiting at the lava tube that exits camp, be there within five minutes or I am afriad I will lose it."

BloodBane growled quietly to himself, rubbing his sore flank with his muzzle. "Slacker, eh?" He muttered into his rough fur. "I suppose he doesn't realize...but no matter, no one does. By the stars, I wish this world would end!" Shaking his head, he staggered to his feet and limped to the exit, heading for the lava tube. He had been up for forty hours straight now, most of the time spent pacing restlessly, and in addition to being spread unnaturally his toes were now torn, even the callouses. "I'll show that wolf...whoever he is...argh, that's right, I'm his apprentice. Well I'll show him anyway..."

"ARGH!" He was only a few pawsteps from the exit, nearly there, when he just slumped to the rocky ground and lay there a few moments. "It's not fair...I'm just so sick of everything...and what makes it so frustrating is no one will ever understand...this is all a joke, this whole life..." he picked himself back up, laughing creepily.
"It's a twisted joke...they all died except me, I must have been chosen by the Heaven Clan to suffer. Should I be honored or furious? Or could I be both? Seems that to have opposite emotions is impossible, or really is the truth that the opposing forces merely intensify both?"
A surge of furious rage and frustration and grief boiled his bones and he bit down on his tattered front paw. "WHY?" He screamed, and then laughed bitterly, exiting the den with a graceless hop.
