Aria's P.O.V. (Sweetfrost)
I woke up the next morning to see Flame staring at me. "Good morning Aria." He says and i purr. "Good morning Flame." I poke my head out of the den. I see no one in the clearing. I walk down into the clearing and soon Flame joins me. I groom myself while Flame goes to check on Jordan. I see Flower and Marissa tumble out of their den. Amber follows them. "Hey Aria!" Marissa says and i purr. "Hello kits." I say and the 3 of them jump around me. "Aria, tell us a story!" Amber says and i purr. "What do you want to heat about?" I ask and they look around. "The clans!" They said and i giggled. "Okay, there are..."
I finish telling the kits all about the clans. I see Apple and Ariel pad out and walk over tword me. The kits run around the center of the clearing. Ariel sits next to me and Apple sits next ro her. Flame pads out soon after and settles on my other side and we start disscussing randome things. "Hi Ariel. Hi Apple!" The kits say after a while and come over to us. "Aria told us a story!" Flower says and i laugh. "Did you like the story?" i asked them and they nod their little heads. "Good." I say. Blaze and moon pad over to us. "Okay, lets hunt!" I say and I set out of camp with Blaze, Flame, and Ariel. We pad through the trees.
I caught 3 squirrels. I put them in a pile and walk up to my den. After awhile Flame comes up and I purr. He moves his nest next to mine and lays in it. "It will be hard for them to know about us." He says and I nod. "Then we will keep us a secret." I say and he nods. I look out of the den and luckily the clan cats are still asleep. Then I go back to my nest. Then I smell fox scent and run out of the den with Flame right behind me. I see a fox stalking tword the kits and pounce on him. It tries to shake me off but it doesn't. I pounce of and dig my claws into its shoulders. Then Flame comes and the fox runs away. "Good job." He says, smiling at me and the kits run over to me as the clan cats come out. "ARIA!" They scream and jump on my back.
"Its okay, the fox is gone." I say and they nod. They are shaking pretty bad so I take them to their parents. Dawn is sitting with her parents so I assume she was still sleeping before the hunt. I see the clan cats look at me and I pad over to them. "What did we miss?" Cherryflight asks. "A fox come in and Aria fought it off!" Dawn says as she pelts over her with her sisters. "Wow. Good job." My father says. "I think we are heading back now but I am sure we will see you soon Sweetfrost." Blackclaw says and the others nod. I watch them walk out with Blaze in the lead and I sigh. I pad over to the others and sit beside Flame. "How's Jordan?" I ask Apple. "She is good, the bleeding stopped and she is starting to heal." He says and I purr. "Well, I am tiered from the fox so I am going back to sleep." I say and pad up to my den. I settle into my nest and Flame comes in. He purrs when he sees me and walks over to his nest. He settles into his nest and puts his tail around me.
ONE MOON LATER.
I follow Flame and Jordan out to the clearing where we always split up. I freeze when I hear a noise that is suspiciously familiar. I jump into a tree and stalk to the clearing. I see Blackclaw, Cherryflight, And my parents. I see Jordan and Flame leap into trees. "Flame, come out wherever you are." Cherryflight meows and he comes next to me. He licks my cheek and jumps down. I see Blackclaw narrow his eyes. "What brings you to the forest?" Flame asks and Jordan jumps down behind the clan cats. "You know why we are here." Pebblestar meows and he nods. Very well we shall take you to the cave." He says. I see him look at me and I nod. I sprint through the trees and into the camp.
When I get to camp I walk up to my den. I pad over to the pool and take a nice long drink. Then I settle into my nest. Soon I hear voices and Flame comes up. "Come on, they missed you." He says and nuzzles me. I purr and pad out of the den. I reach the bottom of the clearing and my sister runs to me. She licks my sholder and purrs. My parents run up and pull me in a hug. I see Blackclaw pad over and sit next to Cherryflight. I see Flame look at me and i almost purr. "We miss you." my mother says and i nod. "Mother, we should be going. The gathering is tonight." My sister says and my mother nods. "I just wanted to say hello." My mother says and walks out with the others following. I pad over to Flame and watch as Cherryflight's tail disappers. I wait a minute and then nuzzle Flame. He nuzzles me back. "Are we mates then?" He asks and i nod. He purrs and i purr.
3 Moons Later
I wake up and lick Flame on the head. He purrs and we get up. I stand up and he looks at me. "W..what is it?" I ask and he looks at me. "Your pregnant." He purrs and licks my cheek. "They are due on two moons." He says and i nod. "You will stay in the cave and will not go out with out me. Okay?" He says and i nod. "Okay, now i am going to hunt so please stay in here and don't go. Okay Aria?" He asks and i nod. "Good." He says and licks me between my ears. He leads me out of the den and over to Apple and Ariel. "Take good care of her." He says as i sit down. "Ah.. Kits." Moon says as she brings her kits over to us. Flame walks out and i purr. "So Aria, when are they due?" Moon asks. "Two moons." I say and all the she cats purr. Blaze comes in and i see my sister and Blackclaw walk behind him. Flame comes in with a squirrel and i see Cherryflight and Blackclaw stare as he pads over to me. He sits down and my sister comes over. "I am having kits!" my sister says and i purr. "Wow so am i!" I say and my sister sits next to me. "Who's the father?" i ask her and she looks at Blackclaw. "Ah." I say and my sister nods. "and yours?" She asks and i flick my tail to Flame.
She nods and leads me over away from the others. "Him? The murder? What were you THINKING!" She says and i look at her. "He is a nice cat!" I say and she growls. "Really, He killed 5 cats!" She says and i stare at her. "you guys almost killed Jordan!" I meow and she stalks over to Blackclaw. Flame comes over and nuzzles me. I purr and lick his cheek. "She just dosn't understand." I whisper and he licks my cheek. I look over to see my sister and Blackclaw staring at me with disbelife. Cherryflight pads over and i hold back a growl. She looks at the ground. "I didn't know." She says and i put my tail around her. "Its okay." I say and Flame nuzzles me.
