"Sky! Sky!"

The lithe form of the prey hunter quickened his pace. His mate, Splash, had his kits yesterday, and it was time for them to be named. Ducking his head under the cave entrance, he padded towards his mate. Splash was standing with a few Cave-guards, protecting the tiny bodies from predators, while gazing around the mountains.

"Splash! Is everything alright? Did I get here on time?"

She ignored him, focused on their kits.

"This one shall be named Wings of a Blue Moth" the kit mother mewed suddenly, nudging their grey kit.

Sky smiled, watching his mate.

"This one will be Thorns that protect the Holly Bush" The ginger kit in question let out a soft mew.

"And... this one will be Bird that flies from the Maple Tree." The last kit let a tiny bit of air through her nose that sounded like a huff of approval.

"Splash... these names are perfect."

Splashes of Falling Rocks turned around, a purr escaping from her mouth.

" These kits will be great, Sky. I... can just feel it."
