2 moons later...

"Ahhhhhh!" Squirrelflight moaned.

A ginger tabby popped out at Daisy's feet. She nipped her sack and lickeed her fur.

"Meeerrrrow!" She moaned. A light brown tabby rolled out.

Ferncloud nipped the sack and licked her fur.

Jayfeather smelled the warm sent of milk.

"Can Brambleclaw come in now?" Ferncloud smilled.

"Sure. Brambleclaw!" Jayfeather mummbled.

Brambleclaw slugged in.

"Aren't they beautiful!" Squirrelflight looked up hopefully at her mates eyes.

His eyes were cold. "Yeah.." He mummered.

"What should we name them?"

'I don't know." Brambleclaw turned tail and left the nursery.

Hurt and shock flashed through Squirrelflight's pelt.

"'What about Berrykit?" Blossomfall shuggusted.

"Okay. And the other one should be...Honeykit." She nudged the ginger one. "In memory of Honeyfern..."

"I'lll be the warrior and you be the mouse!" Honeykit mewed.

"But I was the mouse the last 2 times!" Berrykit squealed in protest.

"Stop fighting you two." Squirrelflight scoweled the two kits. "And Berrykit's right, let her be the warrrior."

"Sorry..." Honeykit looked at her paws.

"You guys are 3 moons old, you should learn to behave." Daisy said.

"I bouught you guys some fresh-kill!" Cherrypaw came into the nursery carring several pecies of prey.

"Thank you." Blossomfall said.

Berrykit picked a juciy vole from the pile, twice as big as her, and dragged it over.

"Mmm!" Honeykit took a bite out the leg.

"Delicious!" Berrykit bite the other side.

"Save me some!" Squirrelflight took a bite.

When the finished, the sisters went out the entrance.

"Brambleclaw!" Berrykit mewed excitedly.

Brambleclaw looked up, but when he saw her, he pretended to look busy.

Her green eyes sparkled with sadness.

She walked back into the nurrsery. "How come dad never talks to us?"

Squirrelflight sighed. "You''ll understand some day. I hope you and your sister never make the same mistake..."

"Won't you be having kits soon?" Berrykit heard Honeykit mew to Blossomfall.

"Yes, in fact it'll be only half a moon now." She smiled.

Brambleclaw came into the nursery.

"Daddy!" Berrykit and Honeykit jumped on their dad's leg.

"Get off me!" Brambleclaw hissed in their faces.

Both kits scrambled over to Ferncloud, wide-eyed and shaking with fear.

"Brambleclaw!" Squirrelflight hissed.

"I need to speak with you outside."
