Adderfern yowled in pain. The last kit plopped out onto the bedding. "Three healthy kits." Featherwhisker reported. "A she-kit and two toms." He licked the kits clean and put his ear to them to make sure they were okay. He nodded and padded out of the den.

Stonestar came in moments later. The three kits squirmed around. The she-kit was silver and black so she kind of looked like Stonetail. The toms were light brown and black. "Mistykit, Ravenkit, and Birchkit?" Stonestar suggested. Adderfern thought of the names for a few minutes.

"I love them." She purred. She twined tails with the grey leader. Ravenwing joined the elders and Stonestar became leader making Bluestorm deputy. Adderfern was proud of her mate. And she was glad none of the kits looked like Hawktail, then she would have to tell the kits who their real father was. The kits all had green or blue eyes like she did. She curled her tail over the kits and fell asleep.

When Adderfern woke up it was the next day. The kits had their eyes open already. The tabby queen yawned. Nightwing looked over at her. Redkit, Blackkit, Yellowkit, and Whitekit were tackling each other using moves the apprentices taught them. Adderfern heard a yowl from the clearing. Hawktail was up on the high rock yowling. "Hawktail. Get down from there!" Featherwhisker snapped.

"No time. Twolegs are coming!" He screeched. Stonestar came through the fern tunnel as he said it. His eyes flew open.

"What? Why didn't you come get me sooner?!" He snapped. He leapt onto the highrock and yowled for a clan meeting. As soon as everyone gathered he started, "Hawktail, you may tell the clan what you saw." The leader backed up so the striped tom could walk to the front.

"Twolegs had huge machines and they were clawing up the ground and cutting trees! We have to get the other clans and leave!" He hissed. He leapt down.

Stonestar stepped forward and started shouting orders. Bluestorm helped too. She sent two apprentices to find something to put the freshkill in. "Sandpelt help the elders to the nursery. We will go out the back of camp." She ordered. Sandpelt nudged two elders to their paws.

"Hawktail go to windclan and tell them to bring the whole clan for an emergency. Silverstripe go to Riverclan and do the same. I want Bluestorm to go to shadowclan. Senior Warriors help carry the kits. Apprentices, help Featherwhisker and Tawnypaw gather the herbs and Fuzzypaw, you have to help hand out traveling herbs. Make sure you get everyone." He leapt down from the highrock and all the cats scattered. The cats he told to get the other clans headed out of camp as did the apprentices told to gather the fresh kill.

~*~
Moments after the cats left Stonestar padded over to Adderfern and her three kits. "When are we leaving?" Birchkit squeaked tackling his sister, Mistykit.

"Soon. Stop fighting." She scolded. He got off the grey shecat and sat down grumpily. His eyes still shone with excitement of traveling. "It's going to rain." Adderfern said tasting the air. "And soon. Can we delay the travel?" She asked her mate worriedly wrapping her tail around the three kits.

The silver leader shook his massive head. "We cannot delay. Hawktail said the Twolegs are almost at the river, the thunderpath, they invaded the moorland and now they are at the ravine." He looked at the kits. "Our warriors and scout a head to look for a sheltered place for the queens every now and then so the kits don't get white cough." He licked her ear and turned back to his waiting clan mates.

"Where are we going?" Whitekit asked Nightwing. Redkit, Blackkit, Yellowkit, and Whitekit were all sitting in a line.

"I don't know. Nobody does." She said licking them all in turn.

"Will we come back here?" Redkit squeaked his small red tail stick straight up in the air. His mother shook her head. "Can I bring our moss ball?" He asked worriedly. Nightwing looked at Adderfern and they both purred with amusement.

"Yes. Play in camp while you still have the chance but don't get in any cats way!" She called as they raced away. They tossed a ball of bright green moss around, dodging Warriors and apprentices.

"Can we go play?" Ravenkit asked Adderfern digging his tiny claws into her leg.

"Only if you stay close. If you go over by the highrock that's fine but please don't bother any cat! And be polite to the other clans!" She called to them as Riverclan cats and Shadowclan cats streamed into the camp. The kits scurried away.

Ahem *cough cough cough*
Mistykit's POV Enjoy!
--------------------------------

Mistykit ran after her brothers dodging smelly shadowclan cats and wet Riverclan cats. "Ravenkit! Birchkit!" She called as she neared the highrock. She bumped into a Riverclan tom the was ten times her size. She gasped. "Sorry!" She squeaked. "I am trying to catch my brothers." She gestured to the highrock where the two toms were wrestling.

"And you are?" He asked lowering his head that was twice the size of her.

She swallowed hard. "M-Mistykit." She stammered.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Pebblestar." He said smiling.

Mistykit's eyes were wide with shock. "Your riverclans leader!" She gasped. She bowed her head in respect. "Sorry for bumping into you, Pebblestar!" She apologized quickly.

"It's okay." He chuckled. He looked around. "Where's your mother?" He asked.

"She's over at the nursery with Nightwing." Mistykit mewed. She led the brown leader to the bush where the nursery was. "Hello, Adderfern. This is Pebblestar!" The silver kit mewed bouncing on her paws.

"Pebblestar." Adderfern said dipping her head respectfully. "How's life how's death how's everything?" She said quickly.

"What?"

"Nothing, Pebblestar." She purred.

The leader shrugged and started playing with Mistykit, Whitekit, Redkit, Blackkit, Birchkit, Yellowkit, and Ravenkit. They all tried to cling to his pelt but he kept shaking them off.
