Maxime growled and attempted to lunge forwards but was stopped by Ice Fang. "Let me handle this Maxime. You, are coming outside with me right now." He said, shoving the other winter wolf violently towards the cave opening. As soon as they reached the entrance he straight up kicked Baxter to the ground outside and proceeded to drag him around some boulders by his collar, choking him in the process.
"What in the world are you doing? Are you stupid? She insulted you so you tried to kill her?" He asked, smacking Baxter across the face as hard as he could. "You know there's a good limit to what even I can stand for. You've been ruining everything since the moment we got here and whenever it seems something is going to go right you up and ruin that as well." He smashed Baxter's back against the rock. "What is your problem? Alpha up a bit! Take responsibility for your actions you got these dogs' friends and family killed! They have every reason in the world to berate you!" Ice Fang pulled Baxter up by his collar and head butted him again and again until he felt his forehead bleed, then smashing his back against the rock once more.
"You make it impossible to tolerate you, you know that? And I try, I REALLY try. I'm your friend but I can't stand for this behavior any more. You're a sociopath, you've got issues from here to the zebra lands but I'm not going to let anyone else suffer for it you hear?" At that he grabbed Baxter's snout to keep it shut while he leaned down close and kneed him hard in the stomach. "One more thing like this, and you won't have to worry about Sharp anymore. You understand me?" At that he took Baxter's bow and broke it over his knee, throwing the two pieces at the sitting Diamond Dog before heading back to the cave.

Baxter was pretty sure he knew what was coming when Ice Fang had told Maxime to hold back, but when Ice Fang shoved him out of the cave, he realized it was going to be a lot worse than he could imagine. The wolf could only desperately pull at his collar as Ice Fang dragged him away, obviously doing his best to choke Baxter as he did so. As soon as Ice Fang had started head butting him, the archer had completely lost the will to resist. He couldn't talk. He couldn't do anything other than look at Ice Fang with fearful eyes as the bigger wolf delivered punishment after punishment.
He almost threw up when he was kneed in the stomach. Afterwards, he slumped against the rock, staring pleadingly at his friend, his eyes begging for any sign of forgiveness. He hardly reacted when his bow was broken and thrown at him, instead merely watching distantly as Ice Fang walked away.
The wolf sat alone against the rock, feeling lower than he had ever felt. It was too terrible to take full responsibility for everything he had caused, but he knew Ice Fang had been right. He was a screw up, and a sociopath. He ruined everything he touched. He was worthless, pathetic, scum, and Sammie had deserved to call him that. It was bad enough knowing all that, but also having his only friend get so mad that he had beaten him senseless... It was too much.
Eventually the wolf stood up, walking almost absentmindedly into the woods. The only thing he left behind was the collar he had been wearing and the two halves of his broken bow. He hated Sammie for attacking him without hesitation, reminding him of why he was so awful. He hated Ice Fang for making him feel like dirt, for not knowing or caring how Baxter felt about anything that had happened. He hated the world for giving him such rotten luck. And most of all, he hated himself. For making everyone's lives worse, for not being able to do a single thing right, for being a negative figure.
He'd find his own way back to the barrens. He wasn't going to screw things up for Ice Fang any longer, nor did he think he could look at the wolf ever again. He'd find his own way back, alone. Somehow.
