Leafstorm
Leafstorm was in the nursery giving Sparkstream a large ball of moss dripping with water. The slender she cat just gave birth to Clearstrike's kits. Her honey colored eyes were filled with love as she focused on her kit. There was only one kit, a tom. He had a red-brown pelt just like his mother.
"Have you named him yet?" Leafstorm asked.
Sparkstream nodded, " We decided to name him Thornkit. "
Just then Clearstrike came in the nursery holding a couple of mice in his jaws. With a small dip of his head, Leafstorm left the little family together.
Leafstorm gave a big stretch and started to groom himself. He just started on his tail when Sleekflight limped into camp carrying a small bundle of dark grey fur.
"Woodpelt!" Leafstorm called. Kesterflight died last night, leaving Woodpelt alone in the medicine cat den.
Woodpelt poked his head out the medicine cat den and gasped when he saw the injured cats.
"What happened?" He asked, sniffing the cats from nose to tail.
" Dogs, " came Breezepelt's reply.
"What happened to our kit?" Heathertail rushed out of Crowstar's den.
Breezepelt pushed his side comfortably to his mate's.
"We were attacked by dogs by the Shadowclan border. Wolfpaw jumped onto one of the dogs and saved Sleekflight," Leaftail meowed.
"Sleekflight take Wolfpaw into my den and stay there so I can check your wounds," Woodpelt ordered.
Sleekflight nodded and limped to the medicine den.
Leafstorm shivered with fright, he met a dog once, when he was apprentice.
"Leafstorm! I want you to take Amberwing, Crouchfoot, Shadeclaw and Larkwing to the Shadowclan border to make sure that the dogs are truly gone. Then hunt on your way back," Crowstar ordered his son.
Leafstorm dipped his head and went to round of the cats for patrol.
Leafstorm picked up a faint trace of dog at the border. The dogs were gone and would hopefully stay gone. Larkwing had already caught a squirrel on their way to the border.
"I think we're good," Amberwing meowed. She was at a bush sniffing around.
"Yeah, the dog scent is very faint," Crouchfoot agreed.
Leafstorm nodded and took his patrol along the Thunderclan border.
"I smell Thunderclan cats," Larkwing announced.
Leafstorm lifted his nose and opened his mouth and there was indeed Thunderclan cats nearby.
Squirrelflight and Jayfeather stepped out behind a bush.
"Hello Leafstorm," Squirrelflight greeted her nephew.
"Hello! What brings you here?" He asked.
"We are on the way to the Moonpool," Jayfeather meowed .
"Did something happen?" Crouchfoot asked.
"Yes, Bramblestar died this morning," Squirrelflight's voice cracked with grief.
"We're so sorry about Bramblestar," Leafstorm said. He remembered when Bramblestar took him and his siblings in after a fox attacked them.
"Who is the new deputy?" Amberwing asked.
"Lionblaze," Jayfeather answered.
" Well I hope everything goes well for you, " Leafstorm meowed.
"Me too," Squirrelflight flicked her tail and left with Jayfeather right beside her.
Darkpool
Darkpool's stomach growled. The black she cat just got back from a border patrol. Darkpool was just about to eat a thrush when Silvermoon slipped out of the medicine cat den.
"Darkpool! I want to talk to you," Silvermoon meowed.
"I was just about to eat!" Darkpool protested.
"If you were already out then we can eat out there, please! It's really important," she pleaded.
"Okay fine! This better be worth it."
"It will be! I promise!"
Darkpool and Silvermoon headed outside of camp and walked to the lake. The two sisters sat down beside each other, and watched the lake ripple.
"I'm going to go hunt," Darkpool meowed.
"Okay," Silvermoon said, she was still staring at the ripples.
Darkpool headed away to a place where she knew squirrels were plentiful. Darkpool saw a gray shape chewing on a nut. Darkpool crouched down and silently creeped towards the prey. She avoided some twigs and used some tall grass as cover. Then Darkpool pounced on the squirrel. The squirrel dropped dead and Darkpool carried back to where Silvermoon was waiting. Darkpool set the squirrel down and the two sisters tucked in.
"What is it that you wanted to talk about?" Darkpool meowed after eating a few mouthfuls of the squirrel.
"I'm expecting Shadeclaw's kits!" Silvermoon squealed.
"Kits! But we just became warriors!" Darkpool protested.
"I want a chance for Leafpool and Crowstar to have a chance to have grandkits," Silvermoon meowed in disbelief at her sister's reaction.
"But I'll miss you! You are my best friend!" Darkpool was running out of reasons why Silvermoon shouldn't have kits.
"I'll still be here," Silvermoon soothed.
"But it won't be the same," Darkpool whimpered.
"It will just be for six moons then me and you can go back the way we were. Besides I don't think I will be alone. I have seen the way Hawkpaw looks at you and the way you look at him. And just look at Wolfpaw and Sleekflight."
Darkpool nodded and pressed her pelt against her sister's.
*I'll be happy for you, I promise*
