Prologue

Leafdapple lay in the nursery, as bored as ever; she yearned to race out of camp and climb trees with Tigerstar once more, but her kits were coming in about 2 or 3 moons at the most and Frostwing simply refused to allow her to leave camp. She was torn away from her day-dreaming by Tigerstar's anxious voice, "You alright, Leafdapple? I could bring you some prey if you'd like." Tigerstar then looked over his shoulder and called, "Tigerslash, Autumnstripe, stop fooling around!" The two felines scuffed the ground with their paws and both walked out the camp entrance. The green-leaf breeze swept across their massive camp and the dappled she-cat shrugged. "Hey Autumnnose, you need anything?" Riverclaw asked as he swept into the nursery, giving his mate a quick nuzzle. Autumnnose gave a soft yawn before nuzzling the tom in return and purring, "How about we go and share a mouse. Oh, Leafdapple, is it alright if you can take care of my kits for a few minutes?" Leafdapple chuckled and replied, "I don't mind at all." At that Pinekit, Molekit, Tinykit, and Burrkit trampled over one another in their haste to go over to Leafdapple. Tigerstar's lips curved into a smile and he suggested to Leafdapple in a whisper, "You should tell them a story."

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Riverclaw intertwined his tail with Autumnnose's and led her towards a quiet and shady area. Riverclaw fetched a decent sized squirrel and came over to Autumnnose. He dropped down beside her and they began to share the squirrel whilst chatting unconcernedly with his mate.

Leafdapple purred in amusement as the kits tumbled over her paws and sat down inside her nest, waiting earnestly for her to begin the story. "Well, I'm going to tell you all about the battle with SwampClan and how we won…" A few minutes passed and at last she finished, "And Tigerstar picked up Shadowstorm and Darkstar and tossed them to the other side, no other SwampClan warrior remained after that." Autumnnose walked in with Riverclaw in tow. Molekit, Burrkit, Tinykit, and Pinekit mewed their thanks and bounded over to their parents. Leafdapple yawned and fell asleep almost immediately.

3 moons later in the nursery a muffled moan of pain escaped Leafdapple's maw as a spasm of pain wracked her body. The stick was gripped tightly in her jaws, it was steadily beginning to splinter as her belly convulsed and the last kit emerged. She dropped the stick and lapped wearily at the sodden moss as Tigerstar began to lick his kits clean. The dappled she-cat glanced over at her kits, stifling a gasp at how big they were despite them being newborns. Tigerstar purred and meowed softly, "They're beautiful…" Frostwing flicked her ears and pushed some borage towards Leafdapple, she licked up the borage before shuddering and curling around her kits. She fell asleep with Tigerstar curled around her and the kits, they were both purring softly as if to lull the kits to sleep.
