Heron Lake Plateau Have you ever heard of the Butterfly Effect?

When she did not attack him immediately that made his guard weaken just a little; suddenly he was invested in this conversation and, unlike the other versions he had told, this time it really mattered that he tell the truth and get his side of things out in the open. As irritated as Screech was by the unfolding events (and as much as hr wanted to keep fighting and let off steam) he had to pause and take a shot - his only shot.

I went for a run to test my leg, since mom -- Raven -- had been looking after me after Blackfeather. When I found the borders of Moonspear, I was gonna pop by and say hello but this girl came running at me outta nowhere, and before I could do anything - she passed out. At least he thought she had fainted. Everyone knew what happened after - so he didn't go in to detail about that. His ears slicked back regardless as he added, I didn't touch her.

None of it mattered now.
