A.N.: Okay, here's the story.
Swiftwind, the brown tabby queen whose mate was Jaystar, glanced at her two newly born kits, Sagekit and Waspkit. They both suckled with anger at the fact they were indeed out of their mother and part of the clan. But Swiftwind was joyful that at least two of her kits hadn't been still-born. Only one, she reminded herself. Only one. Wishkit had been the still-born kit. Wishkit took her place in StarClan. Swiftwind let her kits suckle for as long as they wanted… and she drifted into dreamland.
Wishkit stared at the rest of the ranks of StarClan. "When's mommy gonna fall asleep?" she asked the long-ago ThunderClan leader, Firestar. "She'll fall asleep soon enough." When Swiftwind appeared, Wishkit was giddy with joy.
"Swiftwind or mom? What should I call you...?" Wishkit's small voice whispered. There was a confused expression on Swiftwind's face. "Oh, I'm Wishkit. Remember me? I was born dead?"
"Sweetie, don't say that. Just say you died in battle for milk from me."
"Or that I was born dead. That's the truth, part of the warrior code, am I right?" Wishkit gestured to the other deceased cats.
Swiftwind yowled at herself, in her head. "You were born dead, but a more pleasant way to say it is 'still-born'," she pointed out.
"Dawn is here. Wake up," commanded Wishkit.
Swiftwind awoke with a jolt, startling Waspkit. It was pouring outside, but ThunderClan had trees to keep them from getting wet. Wishkit was right, dawn was here, but she didn't warn her about the rain!
Swiftwind's POV
I woke up right after Wishkit told me dawn was here. Waspkit opened his eyes and stirred before falling asleep again. Sagekit stayed curled up beside me. She was a beauty. A white spotted pelt from Jaystar, my mate and her father, and the spots were brown and tabby-ish from me. No clue how she got her turquoise eye color, though. Waspkit looked just like me, except with yellow eyes from Jaystar. Wishkit, in StarClan, was totally white with amber eyes from me. When they woke up, I told them The Legend of Tigerstar. "There once was a scornful, murderous warrior named Tigerclaw…" That one is good. It nearly scared them to pieces, but they masked their fear with yowling out loud. "Hey,you're only kits once!" They said, "HUH?" I told them, "You are only kits once" Mama likes to have her some fun…
Sagekit's PoV
Almost immediately after I woke up, Mom told a legend about some tom named Tigerstar from long ago. It was actually silly how someone could believe there was a 'BloodClan' filled with kittypets. And losing nine lives in one blow? Ha! No cat could be that powerful! No cat except me… POWER! WAHAHAHAHA! Wait, did that just come outta me?! Just- use that as a scratching post. Heh, heh. Until I stopped zoning out, I didn't notice my mom being a mouse-brain. "Let's catch some invisible mice," I shouted. Being the older one of the litter, I was more powerful. No! I won't let Tigerstar's treachery get to me again. Stupid legend…
