"so, no one's done much." benitoite lay on his side in the grass, eyes half-lidded. "should we be happy? diamond?" benitoite looked back at the cat in question. the molly appeared to be asleep.

"ah, yes. sunstone actually struck a blow on her. she needs recovery." velvetpreen yawned. "at least that means we get to rest, too."

"sunstone is dead now," benitoite remarked, "so maybe fate is in our side."

velvetpreen's gaze darkened. "you think so?"

"i-i mean, it could also be sheer luck," benitoite stammered.

velvetpreen's gaze narrowed, and he arose from his laying down position. "i should hope fate doesn't advocate for lives to be ended so brutally."

"well-"

"i know, we're both in league with diamond and her... antics... but we're her accomplices. we've set our path in stone when we chose evil." velvetpreen stalked over to his ally, a shadow crossing his face. "it's us against the world right now. and even after that, if other cats ever learn of what we are..."

velvetpreen didn't feel himself shaking.

"we'll always be alone."
