For the next few days the cats took it easy as they made their way out of the Twolegplace. Stormfire was no longer sure if they'd ever make it to Sky's Barn. Was Sky even alive? None of the cats knew.
Stormfire barely noticed the wide open expanse of grass that opened up in front of her.
"Woah," Mousewing meowed.
Stepping back Stormfire realised she could see nothing but grass in front of her.
"We found the field," Clpudpelt meowed.
"And it's filled with mice!" Hazelberry purred four fat mice in her jaws.
"I'll catch a few more," Stormfire decided.
Ignoring her injuries she headed into the field. She smelt the mice instantly, tons of them! Stormfire struck out with a paw, faster then a snake killing three instantly and bringing back to her companions.
"You sure you need to eat Stormfire? Your plump already!" Cloudpelt teased.
Looking down at her belly Stormfire suddenly realised how swollen it looked. She couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Are you expecting Mousewing's kits?" Hazelberry asked.
Stormfire nodded.
"They look like they're due soon," Fallowflower sounded worried.
Stormfire didn't blame her. If she kitted before they got back to the clans it would be very hard to carry however many kits she'd have all the way.
"How will we get back?" Mousewing asked. "The Twolegs brought us from the forest,"
"We'll figure it out when the time comes," Fallowflower hissed. "Right now I'm hungry,"
The cats tucked into to the mice hungrily. Stormfire looked her lips when she finished glad for the meal.
The cats continued along through the long grass walking forward for they did not know what else to do.
Stormfire felt disorientated as she padded through the long lush grass. Mice scent was everywhere but they were too full to hunt. Eventually they all stopped. The moon was well up when the five cats decided to sleep.
Stormfire slipped into a dream. She stood underneath tall pine trees. The sun cast a brilliant light through the gaps between branches. In her dream her Father stood there in the forest.
