CHAPTER 1

Autumn parted her jaws in a soft yawn, looking towards her two kits, dreaming softly in her fluffy, bright red fur. The sounds of cats talking outside whistling through the wind. Autumn gently stood, picking her way past her kits, careful to not awake them.

Outside camp, Shadow, Autumn's mate, was organizing patrols. She sat beside her mate, a purr rumbling in her throat.

"Good morning, Autumn." Shadowed meowed, pressing his dark fluffy fur against Autumn's, their fur clashing perfectly.

"Autumn!" A voice broke through the hollow, then Spark, a brown tabby, skidded to halt Infront of Autumn, panic flickering in his deep eyes.

"Me, Cloud, and Willow scented OceanClan on our territory!" The tom meowed in panic. Autumn and Shadow exchanged a furious glanced and the red she-cat stood.

"Where are Cloud and Willow?"

"Still checking the borders." Spark responded.

"I'll tell all border patrols to keep an eye on the OceanClan border." Shadow spoke sharply.

A few days had passed since the OceanClan drama, everything was normal again. Autumn led Squirrel and Dandelion outside, where Bumble and Black rustling in front of the nursery. Squirrel bounded towards Black, squeaking excitement as he freed Bumble from her brother's grasp.

"Kits." Larch purred, padding beside Autumn, her mother.

"Hello, Larch." Autumn responded, pressing her nose into her daughter's thick, white pelt.

"Do you need anything?"

"Oh yes, I was just going to get Swallow to help with Thorn's ticks and replace her bedding." The white she-cat responded, swiping her tounge over Autumn's ear.

"Alright," Autumn meowed "Let Shadow know if you need any herbs!"

Larch nodded her head, padding off to her den as Shadow Approached her, exchanging a few words.

Autumn yawned, lapping at her chest fluff, watching the kits play. Soon, Bumble approached her, "Hey, Mama! Look!" Squirrel squealed excitedly, a dead butterfly at her paws. Autumn's whiskers twitched with amusement, she bent down and slashed her tounge across her kit's head. "You'll be a great hunter one day, Squirrel.''

Squirrel let out another excited squeak and bounded off towards Dandelion, leaping onto her sister.

[I wonder if OceanClan will invade again....] Autumn thought grimly.
