Two moons later I lay in the nursery, giving birth to my kits. I cry out in agony and I hear Bumblestripe struggling to get in, with no luck. Ivypool holds him back. A ripple of pain courses through my body. I howl into the night. A beautiful she-kit just like me slides out. Then comes (with another screech) another she-kit. A she-kit just like Ivypool. Next is a tom, strong, just like my mate. Soon, I have four kits laying beside me, the final one being another tom, the two boys exactly alike. Bumblestripe stands beside my nest, pride glistening in his gaze.
"What are their names?" He asks softly.
"For the grey she-kit, what about Dewkit?" He purrs in agreement.
"How about Ivykit for the other?" I smile.
"Perfect. And maybe…"
"Oakkit! For the Tom."
"And Darkkit?"
"Perfect!" I purr, and quickly fall asleep.
"Dewkit's a slow slug! Dewkit's a slow-mrroww!" Dewkit's bowls over Darkkit growling. She's small, but feisty.
"I am leader of thunderclan! I am Ivystar! C'mon Oakkit, let's ambush the Shadow clan scum!" With a yowl, they leapt into battle. Dewkit's squealed, but was able to escape their grip.
"Hey." Bumblestripe drops prey at my feet. I smile and we dig into the fleshy vole. I nuzzle him and realize, it can't get much better than this.
I named the kits Ivykit for Ivypool, (my fave character) and Oakkit for Bluestar, and Dewkit and Darkkit were just nice names. I love Dovewing and thought she deserved a happy ending. I never really liked Tigerheart, although I don't hate him and that's why I chose Bumblestripe. And he's the more sensible choice. Thx for reading!
