Lionblaze paced around the clearing. Cinderheart had been in labor with his kits since dawn. It was already half to sunset.

Sorreltail, Cinderheart's mother, was also in the clearing, trying to calm him down. Brakenfur and Poppyfrost had gone to look for Leafpool to assist Jayfeather, and even she had told them to go get Littlecloud. This was one of the most complicated births they had ever seen.

"I'm going to lose Cinderheart, and the kits! I already lost Hollyleaf!" Lionblaze wailed.

The whole clan had been trying to comfort Lionblaze, but the only cat that could truly calm him down was Cinderheart herself. A small pile of poppy seeds lay in front of him. Earlier, Brightheart had tried to get him to eat them, but he protested, saying "I want to be awake when Cinderheart needs me".

After what seemed like moons, Littlecloud, Leafpool, and Jayfeather walked out.

"Lionblaze," Jayfeather called his brother over. He was brimming with pride, as these were his kin as well. "You have two beautiful daughters."

Lionblaze rushed in. Before him, Cinderheart lay with her belly in a curved, grooming a small black kit nuzzled in her belly. Daisy sat whisker length away, grooming a light brown tabby kit.

"Daisy? Can I see my daughter?" Lionblaze asked.

"Of course," Daisy handed the kit to Lionblaze.

Lionblaze placed the kit close to its littermate. "What shall we name them?" Cinderheart looked at him.

"I think the black one should be named Hollykit."

Hollykit was more than just a name.

"And the brown one should be Honeykit," he meowed. "Those are wonderful names."

Thanks for the tips! Yah, this was in paragrapgs before, when I loaded it something went wrong
