p style="text-align: left;" The darkness surrounded her.. It swallowed her.. Only the faint sound of yowling could be heard. -The tunnels are the only safe place..- She thought, shivering at the slight thought of being out there. A shape moved towards her, she stayed quiet, but noticed it was an ally.. Her mate. "Why have you come down here? They will surely follow you, and who knows if we´ll survive?" She whispered, with irritation, to him, making sure to not be heard. The tom sighed, "The battle was lost.. The others won.". She had just noticed the sudden silence, "Who survived the attack?" She asked with a frown. The tom sat in font of her, "Gorse, Heron, Abyss, and your mother, Dawn. Sadly she is slowly dying from the wounds. As our medicine cat was killed, there is no way to heal her. All the cobwebs are torn or taken." He said, his claws digging into the stone ground of the tunnel. The she-cat sighed, then felt a pain in her stomache, and inhaled sharply, "The kits are coming!" She mowed with urgency. Her mate ran to tell the others./p

p style="text-align: left;" Minutes later, the she cat had 4 kits, each scrabbled over to her. 2 toms, and 2 she-cats. One of the toms was a grey tabby, with piercing amber eyes and a tiny body, like his father. The other tom was a lighter grey, with green eyes and larger than his brother. One she-cat had a pure white pelt with green eyes and a long tail, white like her mother. The other she-cat was quite unusual. They were a calico cat, with white spots sometimes overlapping the markings, almost as if droplets of white water fell onto their pelt, including amber eyes. Both their mother and father were confused, no amber eyes in either mother or father, and no calico markings. "Silk, what shall we name them?" The tom asked. Silk Pointed to each kit with her tail, "The calico, Cloverkit. The small grey one, Smokekit. The lighter grey tom, Moonkit. What shall we name the white she cat?" She asked, as she wanted her mate to name one, "Hopekit. As for hope for a new clan. A new beginning, a new dawn.."./p
