A/N: Okay guys! This is it, the beginning of the sequel. I hope you like it, it's short.
StarClan this hurts! Grasstail thought as she began her labor. Why don't they make this less painful?
Spottedface came up to her and rubbed the side of her face. She glanced up at him wearily, and he looked at her with concern.
"Do you need Sunflame?" he meowed softly.
"It couldn't hurt," Grasstail muttered, still in pain.
Spottedface turned to leave and Grasstail meowed after him, "Be quick- I don't want you to miss it!"
Nodding, Spottedface left. Grasstail was left alone in the nursery again.
Not for long, she thought as she heaved again. Wondering how long it usually took, she looked down, then looked again in surprise. There was a head poking out of her butt! She blinked, but could do nothing else as another contraction took her efforts. The blind kit was now totally out, meowing helplessly as it looked for milk. What do I do? Grasstail wondered as she instinctively reached out to lick the tiny thing. As she did so, she noticed several small spots on the top of its head.
"Frecklekit," she muttered, once again by instinct, and wondered why the name had popped in her head.
The kit lifted its head and followed her gentle lead towards her belly, where it immediately began to suckle.
Caught up in the moment, Grasstail barely noticed that the second contraction had begun. Soon another two kits were at her belly, Featherkit and Eaglekit. She was exhausted, but she also knew that there was one more. But before the labor could continue, Spottedface rushed in, out of breath. There was a cut down his eye and sweat on his pelt.
"LionClan!" he panted. "They're attacking!"
