Bushes rustled. A squirrel squeaked. a white she-cat tredged through the muddy path, looking for Eagle and getting her pelt dirty along the way. "Eagle? Where are you?" She yowled. Would she have to take care of the 4 noisy kittens that hung from her mouth as she carried them by the scruff, alone? Right as that thought exited her mind, Eagle stepped out of the bush. "No, you wont." He said. Did I say that out loud? "Yes, you did, and you said that, too, Pillow." She blushed. "Oh."
"So..." She began. "Listen, I know what your thinking, where was I?" "Err, yes. I was thinking that but where?" "I was out hunting, when there was a fox!" He mewed. Pillow lifted an eyebrow. "You and I both know that isn't true." He looked guiltily at his paws. "Now, where were you, really?" Eagle shifted his paws uncomfortably. "...Spying on the clans."
She sighed. "Again? Listen, the kits wont get proper care if you aren't there for them!" she meowed loudly. "Well, SORRY for worrying about my former clan!" he meowed back. She sighed. "Listen, I know you are worried about your brother, but think of the kits! Think of how proud he would be! Don't worry about him, he's a strong warrior that can take care of himself." She shuffled closer to him, purring. "Just like you are." Eagle blushed.
He sighed. "I just... There's a war between the clans. My brother is in that war. It's against SHADOWCLAN! Home to most strong warriors! What could WindClan, the clan my brother is in, possibly go against that? WindClan has always been weak, and it's LEAFBARE as it is!" he shouted. Pillow flinched. He never shouted at her. She now knew something was wrong. "L-let's just go home." She mewed immediately and uneasily."
"...If you say so..." he said before curling his tail around the round belly of his mate.
