At sunhigh Shadewing, Robinkit and Frostkit's father, walked in through the brambles carrying fresh-kill along with his patrol; Duskleaf, Sunstripe, and Shrewtail. They dropped their catch on the fresh kill pile and dispersed. Shadewing tossed a squirrel to Frostkit and purred "Why don't you take that you Cloudflower and then we can have a mouse and talk?"

"Okay!" Robinkit and Frostkit said in unison. They  both grabbed the squirrel and scampered awkwardly towards the ledge Cloudflower was sunning herself on. "Shadewing told us to give you this squirrel Cloudflower!" Robinkit said hastily. "Well thank you kits." Cloudflower licked there ears and they raced back as fast as there paws could carry them. Shadewing tossed a mouse to each kit. They settled down and they listened as Shadewing talked about his hunting patrol. "We scented a water vole while walking past the lake and Duskleaf pounced but the vole tried to run to water, so Duskleaf went chasing after the vole and ended up getting splashed by the lake! Anyway-"
His story was cut short when Sootpaw ran in and yowled "Shadowclan are attacking we need backup!" Immediately the kits went running to Sootpaw but they were soon stopped by Silverfeather. "You kits must wait till your apprentices but until then you can guard the camp." "Okay! Not a single Shadowclan fox-heart will get in here!" Goldkit said with determination in her voice. The kits paced around the camp and watched the patrol leave. "I hope they get those mouse-brained, mangy fox-hearts!" Nightkit seethed.
