Blazekit squirmed and squealed as his eyes flicked open, so much that only a tiny pool of light filtered in, the dusky lighting in the nursery made it harder to see everything, and what he could catch sight of was quite blurry. Squeezing his eyes shut he wriggled closer to his mother, their ginger pelts blending together. His tiny wet nose scented the air, it was warm and milky, not very fresh either. Sneezing he was showered with a light mist. He squealed as the cold moisture touched his body. His tiny paws stretched out towards his ma as his lust for milk drew him closer again. Tiny paws pressing against her belly he fought with his eager siblings for some milk.

"Yeah, you know those somalis are beautiful cats, you're right," Contentedly. her head bobbed up and down, teal eyes filmed over with a layer of distant thoughtfulness, imagining this make-believe life with that wonderful, handsome mate and beautiful kits scurrying around and misbehaving in a vividly colored painting, like a paradise that she could never grasp. Somehow this didn't make her sad though, it filled the delicate queen with longing and hope, for herself, for her family, for her new friend. Head snapped up and her eyes wide, recovering from her dreamy revere, Abyssbird watched silently as the silver medicine cat slipped inside the nursery, smiling encouragingly, but her green eyes sunken with distress. Before the small black she-cat could pipe up and ask what was wrong, Stormwind was talking, complimenting the beautiful kits, Abyssbird had to agree, they were a nice bunch of kits, but what was worrying the medicine cat so? Flamingarrow spoke before her, and Stormwind's reply made the onyx she-cat freeze in fear. The kits! " What is Lynxstar going to do?" She finally managed to squeak, eyes wide.

Stormwind bowed her head. Suddenly the she-cat felt moons older than she really was. She had not expected anything like this to ever happen. The clans combining...it was unthinkable. Yet, for one cat, it did seem like a possibility. Cursing the TempestClan leader, Stormwind looked upward. Though she could not see the bright blue sky or stars of StarClan, she could imagine her starry ancestors all too well. Why hadn't any of them warned her about this?! Had they not seen something as drastic as this coming? How could they have not? A sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach formed as she thought of the other medicine cats. Had they seen this coming? If they had, why hadn't they shared this? Or maybe they had been told not to. It was all too confusing, too upsetting. Letting out a sigh, the she-cat turned back to the onyx queen who's eyes were wide with fear and confusion. "Lynxstar tried to reason with Perilstar and Vividstar, but they proclaimed that, because of their love, the decision was already made. Now she's going to talk to Wreathedstar later. I suppose to see what needs to be done about this. Only one solution seems possible to defend ourselves, and that's combining with ZephyrClan." She meowed.

Lavenderpaw stared patiantly at her mentor, or tried to. Her paws were itching to run and go on the evening patrol with Lilythorn! "Please Raidianteclipse, please. I don't want to sound whinney but I feel like I haven't been on a patrol in days! I really want to be able to train better." she mewed excitedly. Her lilac orbs were round and large as she waited for an answer. ooc, really short post, but I posteed earlier Raid, but you musn't have seen it.

Rowanleaf looked around at the cats discussing, and sighed. He knew he would have no part in this. Why would he? He would just have to find something to do while it went on. He wasn't really bothered if Vertigo and Zephyr combined, it would be fair really. As long as the clans accepted it of course, when Tempest and Celestial merged it didn't look as if Celestial agreed. So what could he do? He looked at Lavenderpaw, who was asking to be trained, or at least in a patrol. Maybe he could help there, he padded over to her and Radianteclipse. "Ummm..." He started, looking at Lavenderpaw then Radianteclipse, "If your, err... busy Radiantecplise, should I take out Lavenderpaw? For hunting? I know i'm probably not old enough to be a mentor but just to keep her busy?"

Radianteclipse flicked her tail to dismiss what Lavenderpaw was saying. "Yes Lilythorn, we would be glad to join you on a hunting patrol." She meowed to Lilythorn before turning to Lavenderpaw. "Please Lavenderpaw, I know you have not been an apprentice for too long, but please try to contain yourself a bit more, yet I am happy with your enthusiasm, I would not want you to lose that, let us go." She meowed as kindly as she could. She had to help her apprentice to understand training was more serious than she thought. As she heard a tom speak to her she turned to look at him. "Wait up!" She called ahead of her looking at Rowanleaf. "No thank you Rowanleaf, I am not busy and I can train my apprentice, maybe you will be able to mentor one of the kits from the new litters when they grow up, however you are free to join us, that is if Lilythorn does not mind, and you do not mind being with a group of she-cats." She chuckled, but making herself calm and clear on the first part.

Rowanleaf brightened up when he heard one part of her sentence, he might be able to mentor someone! That would be great! He wondered if Lynxstar would allow it, after all it was her who decided the mentors wasn't it? Though it did sound like fun. "I dont mind!" He said cheerfully, "Hunting with anyone is great!"

Eyes warming comfortingly as her terrorized sstory spilled from Serenewinter's mouth, quivering and frightened, but also angry, hateful, loathing of these cats. It was so hard to keep a comforting and encouraging look in one's eyes when one felt such emotions, and her eyes soon turned stony cold. Lynxstar felt it, and turned her broad face away from the poor she-cat, staring past the newest queen in the clan numbly, turning over the sad situation in her mind. Serenewinter was pregnant. She was pregant. Poor, poor child. As much as she wanted to get up and stand beside the warrior warrior and stroke her softly and rasp her tongue over her ears like a mother with their kit, Lynxstar did not, for it was not dignified. Thoughtfully, her dull-hued eyes suddenly became thoughtful, though still sullen. In such a sorrwful situation, it was difficult to feel much else. "Well," Began the mighty leader, diferent expressions playing across her broad, intelligent face. "If we were to keep them, we would bring war to ourselves, and with CipherClan already at our backs, it would be difficult to defeat them. I'm sure we could, but not without many casualties. I don't really believe in it, bu what if that old tale that parents personalities, even without contact, can rub off on their offspring? In that case, then these kits would certainly be a hazzard. But I feel that there is such a deep sin hiding inside of the simple action of giving them up. It would be our very own fault to produce more killers in the world. I certainly don't want them trained, living, and killed in the life of a Delirium cat, but.." The leader let her voice trail away, punctuated with a small sigh. "It is up to you Serenewinter." She finally mewed softly, meeting the other she-cat's eyes solumnly.

Serenewinter looked down at her paws, not wanting to look her noble leader in the eyes any longer for she feared for what she might see, even though she trusted Lynxstar dearly. There was a silence that stirred through the den becoming more awkward by the moment. Reluctantly she brought herself to break it, without really knowing what she would say. "I -" She managed to meow before being cut off by a pain jolting through her sleek bodice. Her bottom lip began to tremble as tears welled up in her eyes. "Lynxstar help me." She gasped holding back a sob and falling at her leaders paws. All dignity she had - gone. Just like that. She tried to hide her face in her paws embarrassed, but the pain left her squirming and jolting. Then a thought managed to enter her head. Who was in the nursery? But the one and only Abyssbird. She gasped, but she had to try and keep her breathing calm. "I - argh - can't go to the - ow - nursery!" She managed to get out. She looked up at Lynxstar with big and gentle, but pleading and pain filled eyes. Oh Starclan.

She was in labor, just like that. Oh how fate had such a silly way of working! Heaving up her massive frame, Lynxstar trotted over to the broken ivory she-cat and sat beside her, wondering if Darkfog should be there. No, best not. He had no reason to be, really. "There, there," The leader murmured, her now-brown eyes were comforting as they could become as she gently drew the back of her forepaw along Serenewinte'rs fur, stroking her softly for comfort. "Odd, I just went through this not long ago with Flamingarrow. Shall I get Stormwind?" She mewed quietly, moving her 'nub' of a tail to and fro thoughtfully. Was Serenewinter afraid of Abyssbird? Why? Doubtlessly it had something to do with Darkfog, but Abyssbird thought that Serenewinter hated her. Oh with a convoluted web these young cats had woven. "Take my nest dear, it's softer. We want those babies to land nice and gentle, alright? Im going to get Stormwind. Be right back, alright?" She asked, talking in a hushed voice stilled, wondering if the queen could hobble to the nest. Yes. She probably could. Darting out of the den, Lynxstar flew into the nursery, nearly bumping into the silver medicine cat. "Serenewitner.. come quickly to my den." She mewed, then padded back just as quickly, to sit beside the queen and wait for Stormwind to come with her herbs.

Serenewinter nodded when Lynxstar brought up Stormwind. "Yes please." She forced out through gritted teeth. She would not yowl. She would not screech. She would be as silent as she could. Her belly was not even that big! What if they were coming too early? Would they all be still born? Eclipseomen would never believe her, she would be doomed if that happened! No - she would keep herself calm. Digging her claws into the soft earth she dragged her body over to Lynxstar's nest. She was being so kind. She ground her teeth together as more pain came to her. She would be as quiet as she could. She would not have the cats of the clan whispering and gossiping about her. She could never have that. What would Abyssbird think? Darkfog taking her back and she was having another toms kits too? She would think Serenewinter had no reason to hate her. Yet, this had been forced upon the young she-cat. She did not want this, she had never even given kits a second thought while going about her daily life. Now they were coming! She gritted her teeth and dug her claws into the ground, but this did not make it better, she still felt the pain, but she was strong. Air seeped through her gritted teeth and her eyes squeezed tight shut. She let out a few tight hisses. This was horrible! What had Shard done to her? She was so angry - she could march over there and rip him apart bit by bit. She whimpered quietly. "S-sorry." She stuttered to Lynxstar for getting her den messy. Yet the leader was right, her nest was softer. She let out a very soft squeak and every muscle in her body tensed as one kit left her body and fell to the nest behind her. She relaxed her muscles and lay gasping, but it felt like another was coming. She wanted to yowl, screech and scream, but she tried so so hard to keep quiet.

Lavenderpaw jumped as Rowanleaf came up behind her and spoke to her mentor. She was about to ask if he could take her out, because Raidianteclipse wasn't doing anything with her, when the older she-cat spoke up, saying that they would go. Part of her was dissapointed that she wasn't going just with Rowanleaf, but it quickly was swallowed by the excitment that swelleed in her heart. "Oh thank you Raidinateclipse! I promise I'll try my hardest, I will I will! Oh can Rowanleaf come too please!!" she trailed off, looking up at her mentor sheepishly, twitching her tail. "Opps." she sighed defeatedly. "I guess that wasn't a very good way to practice what you said. I'm sorry Raidianteclipse, I'll try to do better I really will. Watch." she said, planting her body firmly on the ground and making her tail stay still. "May Rowanleaf please come on the patrol with us?" she asked politly, struggling to stay still. ooc, Awww Minty she loves Raidianteclipse...

Radianteclipse watched the apprentice and could not help but be amused. "No not always the best way to practice Lavenderpaw." She told the smaller she-cat. "Just a minute." She told Lilythorn with a chuckle as Lavenderpaw actually sat down for once. "Yes, he may." She answered in reply. "But get a move of we don't want all the prey to be gone." She told her and turned to pad off into the territory, but she paused, swearing she could hear a cat in pain, but she padded on.
Radianteclipse to terra.

The tom padded slowly out of the warriors den, stretching elegantly. He glanced around, seeing Serenewinter. She was in labor? Hadn't this just happened with Flamingarrow? Wow, so many new litters of kits! The tom sat down outside the warriors den and proceeded to begin grooming his pelt. First the paws, then the ears and the maw, then onto his chest fur. It was a routine he had gotten used to. The tom was itching to get out onto the territory and on his way to ZephyrClan to see about this CipherClan. What nerve, Perilstar had going together with the newly appointed Vividstar. It was a choice many cats, he was sure, despised. He wondered if there was anything in camp he could help with. He loved to help, hence why he jumped at the chance to go to ZephyrClan with Lynxstar. It gave him a chance to speak with her without the others around. She surely had something on her mind, she was trying to do everything! That wasn't her job, she was supposed to tell them what to do. He smirked at the thought, but it was true. She was supposed to tell them what to do because she was the leader. Sure, she could help, but she was taking everything so calmly! How could she manage that? He would crack, surely he would crack. The tom sighed, realizing he had finished grooming himself and he was staring into a deep, blank nothingness. He shoved himself to his paws and stood silently, looking around like a complete fool. He had just woken up, so he had an excuse.

Lavednerpaw's heart sunk momentarily, but then she heard the laughter in her mentors voice and smiled. She remained sitting, and almost till she was sure she would burst, Raidianteclipse started out of camp. Lavenderpaw jumped up swiftly and followed her. As Raidianteclipse paused, Lavenderpaw perked her ears, and winced when a shrill yelp entered them. That voice...it was...Serenewinters! Her lilac eyes darted around the camp, looking for her newfound freind. It must be the kits...and they were coming to early! She had the deepest disire to run to Serenewinter's side and stay there till the poor cat was through with it, but she waiteeed and slunk out of camp to follow her mentor. She assumed that Sernewinter hadn't told the Clan yet, so it wasn't her place. She did however run to Raidianteclipse's side. "That's Serenewinter!" she gasped, already out of breath. "Shouldn't we..." she trailed off, noticing that the she-cat was already ahead of her. With nothing left to do but follow, she sighed.
Lavender to terra [/blockquote]
