The crack in my foundation

She knew she wasn't getting through to him, but she had to try. She had to. She couldn't leave him here like this, couldn't abandon him to let his paws get burned away while he sat staring at the corpse of what they could only presume was Zee and Azure. At this point it didn't matter if it was actually them or not because in his mind it was so he was hurting himself either way. She latched her teeth onto his scruff and began to pull him back toward the drifts of snow just beyond where the fire had gotten cut off in its spread, but before she got more than an inch she suddenly felt her paws lift away from the ground as he shot up before she had time to react and release his scruff.

A sharp, stabbing pain went through her from her shoulder as his claws gripped into her, causing her to release his scruff with a sharp, pained gasp. Just as suddenly she felt herself being tossed to the ground and she hit the earth with a hard thud, landing hard on her shoulder with a hiss of pain. She was quick to scramble back to her paws, stumbling back ward a few feet away from Sirius, her eyes wide with fear as he turned toward her with a hard gaze that she had never received from him before. His promise sent chills down her spine and all at once she felt like she was back in the room she had once shared with Resin, staring down her snarling mate with no sympathy or recognition in her golden eye.

no no no NO

She couldn't do this again. Not again. She refused. Even as the fear gripped her lungs and made it hard to breathe, she forced herself forward with gritted teeth, running to his side and dodging any swipe of his teeth or claws to be able to shove him forward and away from the bodies and the embers he seemed to refuse to leave. Searing pain stung at her paws, but she had to save him. She had to. "I can't loose you too, Sirius!" she cried, biting back the tears that welled up in her eyes, desperately doing everything she could to shove the mountain of a wolf to the safety of the snow. "Do you understand?! I can't! I can't loose you too!"
