EPISODE 9

In this episode I use "OMW" a lot. I don't like "OMG" and what it stands for, so I used a "W" instead. It stands for "Oh my whiskers"!

*The camera is off; only voices can be heard*

Smokesplash: Patchclaw? Patchclaw!

Patchclaw: Huh? What? (yawns)

Smokesplash: It's almost time for the show to start, and the camera's broken.

Patchclaw: Jus' five more minutes…

Smokesplash: PATCHCLAW!

Patchclaw: Fine! Coming. Hmm…the [technical word] has snapped, and that broke the [different technical word].

*clanking noises*

*sizzle*

Smoke & Patch: Now look what you've done!

?: Maybe I can help.

Patchclaw: Who are you? ! (I have to put a space between them because the site deletes extra symbols.)

?: New. *more clanking noises; the screen turns on*

Smokesplash: YAAAAY. Thanks New!

*Redfang and the rest walk in*

Redfang: Techypaw! You're early! (to audience) Techypaw is an apprentice camera cat submitted by XxPieInYaFacexX. To prevent any confusion here's his description:

Techypaw: silver tom with yellow eyes. His pelt has a sheen that makes him look almost metal.

Silverstreak: (falls over dramatically) MY KITS ARE COMING!

Everyone: *sweat drop*

Honeyleaf: (poofs herself, her apprentices, and Silverstreak into the nursery)

Redfang: Anyway…we have some other cats! Another camera cat apprentice: Stormpaw!

Mothstar: (randomly appears) Thanks a lot, Articmist! I had to look up a ton of words!

Redfang: She's just made because you actually found words she doesn't know. As I was saying…Articmist submitted Stormpaw! (poofs up a dark gray tom)

Stormpaw: (throws a vase)

Redfang: (ducks) Time for the dare! (poofs up Jayfeather and Longtail)

Long & Jay: Am I where I think I am?

Palestorm: Yup. (poofs up two rows of hurtles)

Mothstar: (goes back and fixes his name)

Palesmoke: Yup. (poofs up two rows of hurtles)

Leafpaw: Shouldn't they be able to see?

Rockypaw: (poofs up another set of eyeballs on Jayfeather and Longtail's foreheads)

Longtail: (happily) OMW I can see!

Jayfeather: (freaked out) OMW OMW OMW OMW! (runs in circles clawing at his new eyes)

Nightfrost: (drags Jayfeather away)

Jayfeather: (comes back with Nightfrost two seconds later with only one set of eyes on his face)

Leafpaw: (poofs away Longtail's extra eyes)

Longtail: Fox dung.

Patchclaw: You must race through an obstacle course.

Long & Jay: Why? ! ? !

Smokesplash: On your mark…get set…GOAT!

Everyone: *groans*

Smokesplash: On your mark…get set…GOPHER!

Longtail: *Falls asleep*

Smokesplash: On your mark…get set…GOAL—

Everyone: —GOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*Long wakes up, and Long and Jay start running. Jay crashes into the first hurtle but jumps over a lot of the rest. Longtail, however…*

Longtail: (plows through hurtles) Oof-oof-oof-oof-oof-oof-oof-oof-oof-oof I MADE IT!

Jayfeather: What took you so long?

Longtail: :'(

Redfang: Next you must race through this field of mines. Each mine is marked with a flag.

Palesmoke: (poofs up mines buried in field)

Smokesplash: On your mark—

Redfang: YOU ARE NOT DOING THE COUNTDOWN THIS TIME! On your mark…get set…GO!

*Long starts running, but Jay tentatively reaches a paw to the front and sides. Long immediately runs into a tiny flag and blows into bits, but Jay creeps carefully around a flag.*

Redfang: That's another thing! If you get blown up then you get sent back to the beginning!

Longtail: (falls from ceiling) Fox dung.

Jayfeather: (blows up)

Longtail: IN YOUR FACE! (starts running through the minefield again…and blows up)

Jayfeather: (falls from ceiling, blows a raspberry at Longtail, and starts through the minefield)

Longtail: (finally gets through) I MADE IT OUT ALIVE!

Jayfeather: (polishing nails-claws-whatever you want to call them and whistling) Oh…hi! You took a long time.

Honeyleaf: Is Jayfeather out there?

Jayfeather: Yes? I'm here.

Honeyleaf: Silverstreak's having her kits, but something's going wrong!

Jayfeather: (rushes into nursery)

Longtail: Can I see?

Redfang: (sighs and poofs him away)

30 tense minutes later

Jayfeather: (from inside nursery) The last kit's coming! You're doing great, Silverstreak!

Silverstreak: (pained yowl)

Honeyleaf: Almost there…

Silverstreak: (screeches)

Jayfeather: This one's a she-cat! Good job, Silverstreak! Can you eat this? (pause) Shimmerpaw, come help clean up the nursery. (gently) Do you want me to chew up the herbs and borage for you? (pause) That's it…eat it all.

Silverstreak: (hoarse croaking noise)

Honeyleaf: (to Shimmerpaw, who is dragging blood-soaked moss out of the nursery) Get some moss soaked in water while you're out there for Silverstreak, and then get Palesmoke to clean the floor here and move the nursery.

Shimmerpaw: (deposits soiled bedding into trash can, gets Palesmoke, and gets soaked moss)

Palesmoke: (poofs nursery to a different part of the room and starts mopping the bloody floor)

Jayfeather: Leafpaw, the worst of it's over. Please come and help me clean her fur.

Leafpaw: (obediently pads to nursery)

5 minutes later

Jayfeather: (leaves nursery with Leafpaw) Smokesplash? Which one of you is Smokesplash? (Smokesplash meows) Your mate wants to see you.

Palesmoke: (makes nursery bigger)

*Mothstar, Jayfeather, and Smokesplash go to nursery. Silverstreak looks horrible, her silky fur wet and rumpled. Jayfeather and Leafpaw's gentle grooming had washed away the blood and smoothed the fur that had started to mat. Silverstreak is lying on her side, utterly exhausted, with three kits suckling at her belly: a light brown striped tom with green eyes, a dusty gray tom with amber eyes, and a light ginger she-cat.*

Smokesplash: (softly) Silverstreak?

Silverstreak: (makes faint noise) (weakly) Oh, Smoky…Smoky… (stifles a sob)

Smokesplash: I'm here, Silver.

Silverstreak: (moans softly) Oh, Smoke…it was horrid. The pain…the pain…and all that time I was wondering, is this supposed to happen? Then I saw the blood…and I knew something was wrong…oh, Smoke…Smoke…

Smokesplash: Hush, Silverstreak. That was in the past, and you're fine now. Why don't we name the kits?

Silverstreak: (wavering voice) What if they die?

Smokesplash: (determinedly) Then we make sure they go to StarClan with a name. Besides, Shinyheart is here. She can help nurse your kits. And…what about Ashkit? (he stroked the gray tom with his tail-tip)

Silverstreak: Yes…that is a good name. And…and I was thinking Splashkit for the other tom. Af…after his father.

Smokesplash: (touched) I think it's a great name. And the only she-cat…any ideas for her?

Silverstreak: Spark…Sparklekit. (flops back down)

Smokesplash: Sparklekit, Ashkit, and Splashkit.

Mothstar: Welcome to the show.

Silverstreak: (lifts head weakly) Jay…Jayfeather…and H-Honeyleaf…you saved my life. T-thank you.

Jayfeather: (looks at her with an unreadable expression before poofing away)

Mothstar: That's the end of Episode Nine. We need KITS FOR WILLOWHEART WHO WILL BE GIVING BIRTH IN THE NEXT EPISODE! AND WE NEED MAINTINENCE CATS! Myrtlefalls, I did what you asked, but changed the name of one and added another. THERE WILL BE THE PUFFYDOODLE DARE SOON! And I loved the ideas for the kits—I just didn't remember the descriptions when I typed this. AND NONE OF THEM WILL DIE CUZ THEN THIS WOULD MAKE ME CRY (unless I hated the cat)!

Please review and Mothstar is still talking but she put this in bold so you would PAY ATTENTION TO IT! Two things: a) we need dares! And b) please tell me if I should change Palesmoke's name to Palestorm! I don't know if I should change his name!
