When I'm Gone

Before her weight would crumple onto the ground's unyielding surface the boy who was Cherokee's exact replica would be at her side. She would lean into his form as her bicolored gaze stilled itself on her husband's form. Why had he left? What tragedy would cause him to leave his family with out a single word? Still her features would shake as she watched, Cherokee would also loose himself. Falling in on his support as Song would have done had their son not appeared. Tears would occupy their cheeks as their mismatched gazes would peer into each other, his gentle voice would reach her. It was only her name but in that moment she would come to fully realize what she already knew. There was a reason for his departure, there had to be. Her black knight would not leave her so. She would feel her paws carry her to his side, his warmth flooding through her as she pushed her features under his chin. "Why..why did you leave me my love?"
