Lightshadow yowled as the last spasm shook her and a tiny wet bundle slid out into the moss. The sent from the wet scrap told her that is was female. She licked her kit's fur the wrong way to get her blood pumping. Huh, interesting... she thought as she looked at her kit's light blue fur and cream paws. She was different then her litter-mates, she was blue and they were gray- or black. But Lightshadow still loved her. She drifted into a soundless sleep, while her kits were suckling.

Stormpelt burst into the nursery, for the third time today, and bounded over to his mate and kits. "What should we name them?" He asked Lightshadow, settling down next to her. Lightshadow's gaze flickered over to the blue kit. She softly laid her tail on the suckling kit's head. "Mistykit," She turned her head towards him giving him the, 'your turn' look. He looked at the other kits. The were all toms besides Mistykit. "Shadowkit," He meowed looking at a black tom. "like you." Lightshadow purred and they named the other kits. The white tom, Blizzardkit, gray tom, Rockkit, yellow-creamy tom, Sunkit, and then Shadowkit and Mistykit. Lightshadow gasped as Mistykit let out a little squeak as she got dislodged from her mother, and opened up her blood-shot red eyes.
