Prologue:
A screech echoed throughout ThunderClan's camp. Hearing it, many cats stopped what they were doing to glance, concerned, at the nursery. Inside, a brown-and-white she-cat lay on a mossy nest, her limbs splayed around her. Her stomach, swelling with unborn kits, rippled harshly as she writhed. Next to her, a reddish-brown she-cat stood by, placing her paw at the queen's stomach.
"Get your filthy paw off my stomach, Pinetail," the brown-and-white she-cat hissed through clenched teeth.
"Sorry, Leaftail" Pinetail meowed, "I know it hurts. But your kits will be out soon. Just hold on a little longer."
Leaftail convulsed, knocking Pinetail away. She screamed again, and the first kit slid out. Pinetail quickly grabbed it and nipped the sac open. "A she-cat," she told Leaftail, placing the kit at her mother's side. Leaftail turned her head to gaze at her firstborn, when another convulsion wracked her body and she hissed and flailed. Soon, the second kit was out. "Another she-cat!" Pinetail exclaimed, obviously trying to take the queen's mind off the pain.
"Am I done?" Leaftail panted, until she was cut off by another spasm.
"Only one more to go," meowed Pinetail, causing Leaftail to turn and hiss at her. When the final kit came, Leaftail wailed so loudly that Owlfeather, her mate, rushed into the nursery with wide, scared eyes.
"Is something wrong? Is Leaftail all right? What happened? Do you-"
"Enough!" Pinetail hissed. "Everything is fine… Congratulations, Owlfeather," she added after a moment, "You're a father!"
"A-A f-father? M-Me?" Owlfeather asked breathlessly, looking as though he were about to faint.
"Yes," Pinetail sighed, exasperated. "I'll leave you two alone to name them. Don't take too long, though, Leaftail needs rest.
With that note, the medicine cat whirled around and stalked out of the nursery. Owlfeather ignored her, and instead padded over to his mate and kits.
Leaftail purred as her three kits suckled, then glanced up at Owlfeather. "Three kits, all female," she meowed, letting her head droop onto the nest. "Do you want to help me name them?"
"Of course." Owlfeather gazed in shameless awe upon his new family. "They're so beautiful. I hope our names can do them justice."
"Do you have any ideas?" Leaftail asked. "Because I've always loved flowers and plants, but the name 'Flowerkit' just doesn't have a nice ring to it."
"Let's see," Owlfeather murmured, "Plants... Plants…" He gestured at the first one, a pretty grayish-red kit. "She's red…Red like a rose."
"Rosekit!" Leaftail gasped. "It's perfect! But what about the others?"
"The second is white, with a few black spots dappling her flanks. They remind me of flower petals. So another flower, to go along with the theme?"
"Yes! Flowers… There are lilies and lilacs and irises, and then the herbal flowers, like borage and chamomile and daisy- Daisy! That's it! Daisykit!"
"Daisykit," Owlfeather purred. "It's a very pretty name!"
"So we have Rosekit and Daisykit, but what about the third kit?" Leaftail wondered.
"She's stronger than her siblings," Owlfeather observed. "It almost doesn't seem right to name her after a fragile flower."
"A plant, then. There are several strong yet pretty-sounding plant names that aren't flowers…"
Just then, the last kit pushed her siblings aside to gain more of her mother's milk, causing Leaftail to grunt in surprise and the other kits to squeak angrily. "Wow, she's… She's… "
"Greedy?" Owlfeather suggested dryly. "That reminds me of a plant… Isn't ivy pretty invasive?"
"It is. So… Ivykit? I like it."
"Perfect. Rosekit, Daisykit, and Ivykit. My three little blossoms.
Yes, I know it's a really cliché way to start a story. Sorry about that; it'll get better soon! Anyway… Not much to say, except PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE review!
