☝️small oneshot i wrote becauseee I am too busy working on my Ben Folds OCs to draw moon 3 part 2. Woops

Moon 0.

The warm spring wind flew down into the low grounds of the newly made camp. The sun was setting as the cats bustled about. SkyFlow and CloverBadger were deciding which den should be which while QuickStep and ShatterClash reinforced the branch walls. SnowyPaw and RobinKit were playfully sparring as EggPaw watched with interest from the side.

BumbleStar looked over the camp from the high rock he was lying on. He looked up to see the tall trees flowing in the wind and the birds dancing in the air. The soft, faint vibrations of paw steps reached his fur, and he turned to see RedTooth looking at him.

"Have you received your lives?" He asked, hesitantly sitting next to the tabby.

"Yes," BumbleStar replied in his regular monotone voice. The blowing leaves on the trees and the voices of cats below filled the air.

"Did you see her?" RedTooth started. "In StarClan?"

"StormPaw? Yes," BumbleStar sat up. "She gave me my lives,"

"All of them?" BumbleStar nodded.

"She was the only true one there. It wasn't fully barren, but every other spirit were distorted, only StormPaw was clear. It's puzzling me." He took a moment to breathe. "Has CloverBadger received any visions, or talked to you anything?"

"Not that I know of, no."

BumbleStar sighed deeply and layed back down on the bumpy rock. His ears and whiskers twitched as he thought deeply.

"I know I was only a kit, but I still remember when she died," RedTooth stated and BumbleStar's ears pinned back at the memory. "I wonder why she was the only one to give you your 9 lives."

"I wonder too," He looked down at the camp to see SkyFlow and CloverBadger laughing happily, and QuickStep and ShatterClash were now laying together and sharing tongues with TornPaw. "I have an idea for my deputy," RedTooth's head turned at the mention of the second in command. "I need to announce it soon,"

"Whoever it is, may StarClan approve your choice."

"You're a wise cat, RedTooth," BumbleStar stood up. "I know you're the most responsible to take this role."

"..Are you appointing me deputy?" RedTooth asked slowly and skeptically. BumbleStar nodded.

"We have many differences, but the moments when we work together are moments to strive for." BumbleStar paused and looked at the cat. His eyes shown not with malicious intent, but genuine hope. "I know you don't think the best of me, but I hope you will use this chance to make this new clan proud."

BumbeStar turned to get the attention of the other cats as RedTooth jumped to the dusty ground. He stilled for a moment, wondering if this really was the right decision for him.

In the light of the setting sun and the rising moon, he spot a shooting star race across the dark purple sky, growing his certainty.

---

For context: StormPaw, the StarClan guide, is BumbleStar's half-sister and she died when Bumble was a newly-made apprentice and when RedTooh was a kit

RedTooth also has a major dislike for BumbleStar 💔

— Don't close your eyes, stay here. — Mel begs, desperate, as he tries in vain to contain the black liquid that runs between his fingers from the beetle amulet.

With his head in his lap Beetlejuice seems to be resigned, his energy fading quickly, his green eyes almost dull, lost somewhere far away. His voice is weak and broken but no trace of tears graces his spectral face.

— I love you. — He murmurs, the words echoing in the space between them. Confident, devastating. Mel's eyes widen in surprise, the tears now falling even harder, mixing with the infernal blood spilled.

— My ghost friend is such a liar that I almost believe him. — he murmurs, his voice more broken than he would like to sound. Beetlejuice smiles, a weak smile, as a black liquid, hot as hellfire, drips from the corner of his mouth. The beetle amulet has almost all the black liquid on the ground, and the hope of saving it slowly disappears.

— I love you too, damn it. — The brunette admits, his intense blue eyes fixed on Beetlejuice's, as sadness and despair surround them. A lump tightens his throat, suffocating him with the pain of imminent loss.

— I know.... Sorry it took so long. Feelings. Ew...— Beej whispers, his purple strands slowly losing color, taking on a pitch black tone.

— Don't you dare leave me here, alone, Bug. I won't make it, not without you. — Mel pleads, observing the crooked smile on the demon's lips when he tries to speak, but can't. His body, which used to be so restless, now remains completely still under his arms. The artifact dangled in his hand, without a single drop left.

He's gone.

He had no turning back. Her beloved died and would not return this time. Mel remained there, hugging him, until no tears fell and he no longer had a voice. Melancholy and loneliness filled the space where love once existed, leaving only the emptiness and sadness that eternity without Beetlejuice would bring.

Yes, I torture myself with annoying thoughts.
