Maggotscreech paced around the Warriors' Den, he seemed to be sort of half angry and half crying... He felt as if he could no longer control his actions or feelings and was more of a robot controlled by nothing but the horror that life was.
A large Cheshire-like grin formed on the brown tabby's face as he suddenly halted at the back of his den. There was something crawling along his bony spine. A bug. They had been crawling around his pelt and running at his paws his almost his entire life since he had discovered that they interested him. They were usually tolerable, but this one...
It began to itch where the bug was crawling, had it bitten him perhaps? Irritated, Maggotscreech rapidly spun his head around and started to bite himself, trying to kill the creature that wouldn't leave him alone. He began ripping numerous chunks of his fur out.
This was distracting him so much that he didn't realise someone was nearby.

Echoflight had been standing on the other side of the den, wrapped up in her own thoughts--where the sun went after it set and such topics--when her musings were distracted by a scuffling noise on the opposite side of the den.
Echoflight being still and simply thinking was a rare occurence, but today she was not feeling quite as energetic as usual. She rounded on said scuffler, prepared to be mildly annoyed, but words failed her.
A brown tabby was gnawing viciously on his back, where something live seemed to be scuttling--a bug, perhaps? Echoflight shuddered a bit as the tom began to tear out large clumps of his already-matted fur.
"Hey!" she said, surprising herself and hurrying over (not too close). "What are you doing?"

Maggotscreech twitched as he heard the voice of his watcher spoke. He snarled at her in response, his hisses failing to form real words as clumps of brown and black fur fell from his sharp toothed jaws.
He stopped speaking and was silent, bright green eyes staring at the she cat with barely any emotion.

"Ah!" Echoflight jumped back as the tabby rounded on her with a snarl. What the heck? His own fur was falling from his jaws, and the tiny she-cat tripped over her own feet as she backed up. His eyes, a clear green, were bright with a strange sort of light, the kind of light that is dark.
Echoflight swallowed hard and glanced at the door, ready to make a break for it if he started foaming at the jaw or something. "You okay/" she asked cautiously.

Maggotscreech nodded slightly. He flicked his ear and dropped moving, just staring as his fur continued to drop from his mouth until there was only about three strands around his muzzle.
He nodded again, starting to sit down.

What's with all that commotion? Willowflower thought, as she woke from her snooze. She woke to see clump of fur; that was the first thing she saw. Grossed out, she looked away."Ew!" she cried. "What are you doing to yourself?"

Echoflight, already jumpy, squeaked a little as another head rose from in the warrior den and gave a shrill cry upon seeing the self-bloodied warrior. She surveyed the she-cat for a second--a pretty white and ginger she-cat who's name she couldn't remeber--then torn, glanced between the both of them, her paws bouncing back and forth.
"Do you need anything?" she asked at last, trying not to appear outwardly frightened at the tom's bloody appearance. "The medicine cat?"

"Yeah, what happened?" Willowflower asked with concern. She didn't know what else to say, because she didn't know any details, other than the fact that he had ripped his fur.

Maggotscreech stared at them with almost neon green eyes. He shook his head and looked between them both. Things were getting crowded now. He looked around a couple of times before running through the middle of them and exiting the den.

"What on--" Echoflight whirled around and stared after him. "Hey!" She followed after him, a bit grumpy now. "You're bleeding." Did he even talk?

Stormshine padded into the Warriors' Den just as Maggotscreech raced out. She looked around inside and saw Willowflower and Echoflight. "What was that all about?" she asked, padding up to them.

Willowflower, not noticing Stormshine, hurried after the cat. "Hey-! You didn't even tell me who you are...!"

"Willowflower! Wait!" Stormshine called out. "If he does anything....." she stopped, realizing she was thinking out loud.
