The silver and brown tabby leapt up onto her fence. She licked her paw and swiped it over an ear as she waited. A rustle in the bushes made her look as a black muscular cat stepped out. He leapt up beside the she-cat.
"I thought you weren't coming for a while." The she-cat meowed and pressed her muzzle to his.
"Why wouldn't I come see my mate and kits, Merry?" He mewed and leapt down into the yard. Merry followed closed behind as he pushed into the twoleg nest.
"So, Ravenstar, your keeping your promise of taking two kits back to Thunderclan with you right?" She meowed quietly as her kits suckled.
"Of course!" He snapped. "Sorry." He mewed quietly. "I would give my life for you and the kits." He sat down and licked the kits each in turn.
Merry licked a small grey she-kit with a black tail and paws and then a big silver she-kit with light and dark brown spots mixed together. "These two are the strongest. They would live longer in the forest." She said to her mate.
He nodded and stood up. "Once they are six moons they will come back and see you. I will have to make sure nobody knows their kitty-pets...." He mewed the last part to himself.
Merry sighed heavily. "I know. Their best off not knowing me either...." She licked their heads. "You should take them back soon. My twolegs are coming back soon."
"I will. But you will see them every other day. And you will get them the whole day on full moons." He declared licking between her ears. "I will tell the Clan I am helping them." He said and placed the two kits on a piece of twoleg fur.
He bundled it up and touched noses with Merry before padding out of the twoleg nest and into the yard. "COME SEE ME SOON!!!" Merry called as he leapt down into the forest the bundle dangling in his jaws letting out tiny mews.
