Chapter 25

"OOPS I DID IT AGAIN!" I accidentally wrote that Thornlight was Berryfoot's mate, but he's actually her son, sorry Fox! Please forgive me! And don't knock me out! Also, I know Fox was upset that Summerpaw died, Daisymist died, and that Foxflame became a warrior again. So, Daisymist is still MAJORLY in this book, as is Summerpaw. As for Foxflame, I made her a warrior so that she could stay with her mate and have another chance at kits. Hope this is ok Fox! Also for Keeper, I warned you girl, tissues will be needed in this chapter! Told in Whiskershadow's POV. I know I've been using him a lot, but I need to so that he can live through this and feel his reactions. This is the last chapter I'll be using Whiskershadow for a bit.

Two days had passed since her death, and it still stung like a bee. He knew Vitapool was pregnant now, with three kits. He was always looking out of her, making sure Galeclaw stayed as far away as possible. No one will hurt her, ever again. Foxflame had become a permanent queen, always helping our Vitapool and Whiskershadow in the medicine cat den. He walked over to the white and ginger queen.

"Hey Foxstar can I ask you something?" She nodded sadly. "Well I loved your daughter very much, more than anything. I know it's the warrior code, but nothing could keep me from her." Foxflame teared up and smiled at him.

"I remember when she was really young, she would always say that she wanted to have kits with you, and be a family. I told her you would become a medicine cat, and you couldn't have a mate. She always said that you would come to her and never become a medicine cat again." Foxflame laughed half-heartedly.

"It's true. I would have given up everything for her. And I believe she's not truly gone." She smiled and nuzzled him.

"I do believe that also Whiskershadow. Thank you." For a while, they cried together, soaking up each other's tears. "Please, care for Vitapool. I know she's expecting." He looked at her surprised, but Foxflame smiled. "If it were me I would throw her out, but I had the same problem. When I was in Skyclan, I was medicine cat, the leader, then mother." She smiled and settled into sleep next to Sparkheart and Berryfoot.

Whiskershadow walked out of the nursery, smiling. Foxflame will always be one of my closet friends. I love her very much for it, for basically taking my sisters and I in after mother died.

A few weeks later…

Everyone eventually knew that Vitapool was pregnant, her belly was giant. She walked into the den where Whiskershadow was sorting through herbs. She came in grunting and passed out in her nest. "Vitapool, what's wrong? Tell me now!" She looked up at him, pain filled her eyes. "Oh no..."

"T-The kits are coming!" She screeched quietly. His shocked expression was quickly replaced with hope. He led her to the quiet part of the medicine cat den, vines blocking their view of camp.

"Vitapool push!" He gave her a leaf, that she immediately licked up. After a few pushes, the first two kits were born. "One more, please don't give up now!" She cried out in pain until the third kit was born. The grass where she lied was drenched in blood, this wasn't supposed to happen!

"W-Whiskershadow? Why is there so much b-blood?" Whiskershadow shook his head grimly. "Don't look at me like I'm about to die, I still have cats to save!" She looked at the 3 little kits lying next to her belly. "What are these? Why are these cuties next to me? They're drenched in blood!" She immediately started cleaning them up.

"Stop Vitapool you need to eat something, t-there's too much blood, you could get hurt." He tried to stop the shaking in his voice, but he couldn't. Vitapool was dying, and he was powerless. "Vitapool you don't understand, you're dying. There is too much blood loss, you're hallucinating." She shook her head and laughed, before she stated coughing.

"Stupid child. I have much life in my paws!" She lied her head on the moss, closing her eyes for a long time. She finally drowsily opened her eyes. "I'M DYING AREN'T I?" He nodded, tears flowing out of his eyes. Vitapool was shaken by sobs. "It's not fair, my kits will have to drink another queen's milk, I wanted to be their momma!" She violently thrashed out.

"Vitapool stop, please. You only have so much time left."

"At east let me name my children." She pointed to the whit she-cat with misty eyes. "Mistkit, for Daisymist. I had a dream while giving birth to her, that Daisymist's spirit jumped into her tiny body." She then pointed to the black and white tabby tom. "Midnightkit, for your eyes. I've always loved your eyes the most." She then pointed to the black, white, and gray tom. "Dapplekit."

"Those are beautiful names," he answered, all chocked up. She smiled at him, and lied down.

"Whiskershadow I've always loved you, more than I had ever loved Galeclaw." She licked his forehead. "Take care of my babies, because I have so much more life to live!" As Whiskershadow cried, Vitapool lied her head on the moss, her breaths slowing and her eyes closed. When she finally gave her last breath, Whiskershadow wailed.

"I've lost almost everyone in my family. I only have Skyflower and Moonfire, I will never let them, ever get hurt." He wailed over Vitapool. Suddenly, a red rage crossed his mind as he stared at his mentor's body. "Galeclaw caused this, and he will pay," he mumbled grimly.

He carried her kits to the nursery where Foxflame and Sparkheart were chatting. Mistkit in his mouth Dapplekit on his back, and Midnightkit also on his back. "These were Vitapool's. Foxflame, Sparkheart this is Midnightkit, Mistkit, and Dapplekit." He leaned down to Foxflame. "Mistkit is Daisymist, she was reincarnated, but never tell her. It's against Starclan's rules." She nodded and snuggled the kits close, and Sparkheart smiled.

"We will take care of them," the promised. He nodded and walked out of camp walking to Galeclaw.

"Where's Vitapool, is she ok?!" Whiskershadow snarled and pushed her down.

"You killed her! She died birthing your kits! They will never ever know you, from now on they are my children! I will provide for them, and be there for them! You killed her! Get out of my clan, and never come back!" Whiskershadow roared as he brought his claws down on his face. Galeclaw's were drowned out by Whiskershadow's screeching. "You killed her!" He repeated multiple time before he finally stopped clawing Galeclaw. The to stated at Whiskershadow terrified, and bloodied. "GET OUT OF MY CLAN!" He roared.

Galeclaw bolted out of camp, running as far as possible. Whiskershadow collapsed to the ground, sobs taking over his body. Moonfire walked over to him. "It's ok, I promise that you will be ok," she said calmly. He allowed himself to be vulnerable and nuzzled into her embrace.

Guys I'm sorry I'm a killing machine! I loved Vitapool, but she gave us beautiful babies! Don't worry though! Whiskershadow became a bad-a$$ and took Galeclaw down! Post again tomorrow bye! Remember comment or PM about how you felt, and we still need and animator B.T.W! -Majesty
