Two reveiws, yay! Also, it turns out Dapplestorm is two Cate from twomof my books. Oops! Anyway,
Gracedapple~I like your idea but I'm not sure that Swiftkit will be mentored to Darkpaw when she gets her warrior name. I thing Swiftkit will join Rainclan though and I will borrow a bit of your idea. I tend to use people's ideas and change them slightly so they are partly my own. Thanks!
Chapter 10 (somehow)
Morningpaw sat at the gathering. She was chatting to Whitepaw as usual and Darkpaw was with Palepaw and Lionpaw seemed to be looking for Fernpaw.
"Where's Fernpaw?" Asked Morningpaw.
"She has Whitecough." Informed Whitepaw. "Fallenmoss is worried it will become Greencough."
"Silence!" A warrior next to them hissed, "It's starting!"
Moonstar stood back, letting Ripplestar step forward.
"We have one new warrior, Aspenfeather. Blossomsong has also given birth to three kits, Rosekit, Jumpkit and Shimmerkit. Wavewhisker's eyes gleamed with pride.
Then Streakstar stepped forward. "We have no new kits or apprentices but we have one new warrior, Stonesplash. Mallowpaw has also recived her medicine cat name, Mallowtail.'" Already! The two cats looked extra pleased to be warrior and medicine cat and Morningpaw felt a pang of jealousy. "We have also lost our deputy, Breezefur, due to a fox attack, Wolfdapple died as well." Whitepaw's eyes listened with fresh tears at his dead mother's name." I wonder how I would feel if I lost my mother. "The new deputy is Cinderlight." A grey and white she cat sat whee Breezefur would have been.
Moonstar stepped forward "We have one new warrior, Flowershine." Morningpaw glanced at her friend, nd he was struggling to hide her delight when the clans called her name and cheered. Flowershine must have been popular, "Shakenmoss will be having her kits at any time." Morningpaw faintly remembered a cat who had just moved to the nursery a few days after her birth. "We have lost Copperkit and Swiftkit to what we think was a fox."
Frogstar stepped forward this time, "We have one apprentice, Squirrelpaw. Stormeyes has also moved to the nursery with Wolfstripe's kits. We also have a single new warrior, Mossydapple. Kinkpaw and Mouthpaw have gone missing and are presumed dead."
The moon hadn't yet covered so Morningpaw chatted with Whitepaw. She didn't love him, well not right now maybe, She just liked him as a friend, but why couldn't she stop thinking about the other apprentice as she tried to sleep later that night? Her thoughts were also on Bushtail.,I won't be expecting kits so why does he want me to look after them? She managed to stop him and just as she nearly manegednto drift off, screeches split the air. Dawnpaw awoke the first, hee eyes blinking blearily.
"Shakenmoss's kitting!" Morningpaw gasped. She peeked out of the den and saw Shakenmoss, screeching and yowling fit to burst. I know kitting queens screech a lot but not this much! It was obvious that she was in a lot of pain.
"The first kit is coming." Mewed Dawnheart. Goldenpaw sat next to her. A she kit fell onto the moss. It has Shakenmoss' plumey tail and Lostear's light brown tabby pelt.
"How about Plumekit?" Lostear asked, padding over.
"Perfect." Purred Shakenmoss before she screeched again. A pale grey kit slithered out. It has Shakenmoss' light grey fur but Lostear's stocky frame. The kit wailed loudly as he was licked.
"Loudkit maybe?" Lostear mewed, "For the noise he is making."
"Ok." Agreed the queen.
Two more kits were born. One was a pale grey tabby tom called Silverkit, and the other was a tiny dark brown she kit called Softkit. Shakenmoss was panting after giving birth. To morningpaw's horror, Softkit seemed to be getting weaker.
"She won't make it." Mewed Dawnheart solemnly as the kit got weaker, "She was too small and weak." Shakenmoss wailed as Softkit lay still. "Loudkit, Silverkit and Plumekit are strong healthy kits though. They will be fine.
Finally more kits! Also Expeon2.0, I loved Flowershine, I had chosen that one right from the start, lucky you. Also, I love killing good kitties, sorry Wolfdapple, Breezefur, Softkit and all the innocent cats who died. Now, I will wait for two more reveiws before the next chapter...
