them

Flames licked at the small black and white speckled kitten, causing it to press itself against the log, eyes wide in terror. The kitten's fur was singed in places, and shrill mews of horror erupted from its tiny mouth as it watched it's childhood ripped away by the fire, crumbling under the flames.

The kitten opened it's mouth to cry out in pain as it's paw got burned, the fur smoldering, but smoke entered its jaws, trying to pry the life out from it's mouth.

The world blurred, and the kit came close to collapsing, to joining its home, to be found along with the wreckage buried under ashes, to have its friends and family mourn for it, for them to long for the kit's company again.

That would never happen.

That was the problem for living forever.

The problem with being an Eternal Guardian of the tribe.

The problem with being the chosen one.

If the kit's life was ripped away, the kit would still be alive, being forced into the harsh prophecy that it was born into all those seasons ago.

The kit was one of the first leaders, a founder. The kit was large and sleek, with creamy tabby fur, at that time. Healthy, the kit was a leader, well known, thought of as the most important cat in history.

The kit was dead.

It had been dead so many times, that dieing again wouldn't matter, it would just happen again.

And again.

And Again.

Sadness.

Grief.

Regret.

<p style="text-align:left;">All of these feelings washed over the kit as it felt the searing pain of the fire burning through its soul.

<p style="text-align:left;">What kind of savior am I?

<p style="text-align:left;">A terrible one.

<p style="text-align:left;">The fire would kill the kit, cause it to lose its tiny life.

<p style="text-align:left;">And there was nothing anycat could do about it.
