Frostpaw looked at her, confused. "Right about what?" she hadn't talked to her mom in moons.
Lillypool opened her mouth, to open, but was hit with a massive crying fit, and started to gasp for air, too weak and bleeding too hard to cry, for it caused her blood to flood faster out of her wounds and she passed out, too much blood lost.
Shimmereyes pushed Frostpaw back and gave her a stern look. "Sit and try to remember, but don't mess with her. Maybe Starclan will grant you with memory." She quickly put burlock root on Lillypools wounds and put cobwebs on her cuts, trying to get the blood to stop.
At that moment, Shimmereyes was thrust into a sort of daze that she rarely got in. She would snap at anything that was wrong, for it could spell disaster. "Stripetail?! Where is that water?!" she yowled, snapping around to look at him.
Swiftflare could not bear to see his mother like this. "I will get it!" he called, and ran off, his head bowed for his mother. He would help any way he could to keep his mother alive, and he craved to see her a healthy cat that could tell all of her history to him, and be like all of the other cats mothers, but that did not mean he didn't like her. He loved her with all of his heart, and if she never got her memory back, he wouldn't care, as long as she lived on.
Sitting there, all of the chaos twirling around her in a mass blur, Frostpaw tired to regain her memory of what she told her mother that night, but couldn't. She put her head on the ground, smelling her mother's fresh blood.
Whipping around to Frostpaw, anger in her eyes, Shimmereyes glared at her. "Get out of here! You need to be somewhere peaceful, not here! Go to moonstones if you have to!" she turned back and kept putting cobwebs on Lillypools fresh wounds.
"No! I regain memories when I am near the cat that I had the memory with." Frostpaw said, and looked at her mother, then closed her eyes.
"How dare you say no to me…" Shimmereyes started, but was cut off by Frostpaw's tail being swept across her muzzle.
Opening her eyes, Frostpaw jumped up. "Starclan no…"
Sparksoul was the first one to react, Stripetail in a depression, and Shimmereyes about to claw Frostpaw's fur off for telling her to stop, or hush. "What, do you remember?"
Frostpaw's eyes were big. "I told her that she was no mother of mine… and that was the last thing I said to her…" she whispered, trembling.
Stripetail snapped out of his depression at that moment and was at his only daughter's side. "So… what does that mean?" he had fear in his eyes, but wrapped around Frostpaw, trying to coax her into telling him what she meant.
Her eyes on the ground, then her family, Frostpaw started to softly cry. "She is not our mother." She whispered, shocked at it actually. The siblings looked alike, and were the same age, so it was clear they were from the same litter. But what was really confusing was that they looked similar to Lillypool, but it was pretty clear that they didn't look like Stripetail.
This was too much for Sparksoul to take in on his own. "I… I have to get Swiftflare." Swiftflare was his brother, but also his best friend. He was the only cat that he could go through this with. He stood up and ran off, his head low, but eyes dry, in too much shock to be that upset yet. He ran off, following his brothers scent.
Her eyes big, Frostpaw leaned on her father. "But… I didn't…. she has to be…. How can she not be…" she stuttered, not ending any of her statements, not able to for she could not bear to say that Lillypool was supposedly not her mother.
Stripetail put his head on Frostpaw's, anger and sadness in his eyes. "I know, I know. It is ok, blood relation or not, you will always be my little girl."
Just as things were slightly settling down in the clearing, Lillypool was not bleeding that hard, just passed out, and Frostpaw was calmed as much as a cat could be in that situation, Sparksoul charged into the clearing, panting hard. "SWIFTFLARE!" He yowled, barely able to stand he was gasping so hard.
Shimmereyes ran to him. "What about Swiftflare?"
Sparksoul's eyes were pained. "He is missing!"
