Well here is the next chapter. I hope you all enjoy. There is some great character development of Dandelionpuff and Lionshine as parents. I hope you all enjoy! Also please remember to leave a review.


Fawnkit raced under her mother's legs trembling. Thornkit joined her a moment later. Fawnkit thought 'Is Jupiterkit going to die? Please no! Don't take my brother away!'

Dandelionpuff nuzzeled her two kits and looked towards Lionshine with a pleading gaze. Before any of the family could move Dewdrop and Grasspaw entered the nursery and came out carrying Jupiterkit.

Jupiterkit let out a small whimper of pain his small paws flailing for his mother. Dandelionpuff's eyes grew wide as she attempted to move to her kit's side, but Lionshine barred her way. Dandelionpuff growled at her mate. Fawnkit looked back and forth between her poor brother and her mother and began to whimper. Thornkit joined in. Dandelionpuff sighed and turned her attention towards her other two kits and wrapped her tail comforting around them.

"Take him to the medicine den and make him a nest," Dewdrop ordered his apprentice.

Lionshine wrapped his tail around his mate and kits. He then licked Dandelionpuff's forehead, before turning his attention to the medicine cat.

Dewdrop said in a soothing voice, "Dandelionpuff you and your ktis shouldn't go into the nursery until I get a chance to clean out the old, sick laden moss. You should probly take the kits out of camp in order for you all to have some fresh air."

Dandelionpuff nodded, grief in her gaze. Lionshine nuzzled his mate on the cheek and said gently, "Come on, Dandelionpuff we need to take care of Fawnkit and Thornkit right now. Dewdrop will care for Jupiterkit while we are away. Trust him, he's a good medicine cat." With that Lionshine gently stood up and laid his tail across Dandelionpuff's back. She stood up and allowed her mate to herd her family out of camp.

Dewdrop watched the family until they exited the entrance to camp then turned and started to pad towards the leaders den. He needed to inform Greenstar that there was greencough in camp during newleaf.


Fawnkit grew more excited as they exited the camp. I get to see the trees up close! Oh, I hope I can see some prey! Fawnkit thought her mind racing.

They began to pad out into the forest when Thornkit meowed, "I'm hungry!"

Fawnkit realized that she too was hungry but that she was more excited to finally see the forest. Dandelionpuff sighed and said, "Come here kits we'll have something to eat before heading a little further out." After setting herself into a patch of shade the kits came over and began to suckle. Lionshine stood over them, protecting them from any dangers. After a few moments when the kits were satisfied the family moved off further into the woods.

Fawnkit asked, "Lionshine can you show me the hunter's crouch? Please…."

Lionshine purred and obliged his daughter dropping into a hunter's crouch. Thornkit tried to copy him, sitting back on his haunches but with his tail sticking straight up in the air.

Fawnkit purred, "Thornkit you'll never catch anything with your tail up the air like that! Watch this!"

Fawnkit dropped herself into a crouch with her tail flat behind her, swishing the leaves on the ground. Dandelionpuff purred.

"You'll both make great hunters one day!" Dandelionpuff praised.

The undergrowth rustled and a she-cat came into view her belly swinging heavy with kits.

Fawnkit and Thornkit rushed behind Lionshine who began to growl at the she-cat.

"What are you doing this far into Thunderclan territory kittypet!" Lionshine hissed.

The she-cat's eyes grew wide with fear at the two warriors facing her.

"I've come looking for a safe place to kit. I am no longer a kittypet, I just haven't been able to remove my collar will all the swelling of my pregnancy. Please, this is my first litter and I need help. I'm so scared," she meowed with fear edging her tone.

Dandelionpuff's eyes grew soft with sympathy. "Oh honey, what's your name? Hmm…. Lionshine we should bring her back to camp and see what Greenstar has to say."

The she-cat stated simply, "My names Esther. Please, I'll be willing to meet any cat that may help me and my kits. I've traveled far to get here."

Lionshine was still suspicious of this queen, but he could tell that she was weak with hunger and needed some shelter for she would be kitting soon.

The five cats turned and began to head back to the camp.

Fawnkit heard a sound and turned her head to see a flash of grey fur passing in the undergrowth. Fawnkit shook her head and thought, probably just a cat out hunting. I don't want to disturb them." With that she continued on with her family without a second thought.


Hey all I still need OC's for the other three clans! Onestar is the leader of Windclan but all other positions are open to have fun with!
