I padded back into the camp with a rabbit in my jaws and laded it on the fresh kill pile. It had been a moon since I told Darkstar about Scourge, and so far the small black tom hadn't spoken to me, but that's not the problem right now. My legs ached and I felt like I would fall down any moment from exhaustion.
Darkstar had noticed my state and bolted towards me.
" Winterstorm, lean on my shoulder. I'm bringing you to Rosepool." Autumnbreeze had moved to the elder's den and left Rosepool as medicine cat. I could every time I saw my sister that she missed Autumnbreeze more then ever.
" Rosepool!" The cream and pinkies she-cat poked her head out and beckoned Darkstar forward.
" She's exhausted, I don't know why." Darkstar mewed, obviously concerned. I licked his check and padded to a nest made of moss Rosepool had prepared me.
" Lay down." Rosepool ordered me. I did what I was told and Rosepool felt my belly, moving her paw in different places and smiled when I gasped.
" She's not sick, Darkstar. She's just expecting kits." Rosepool purred. I gasped and stood up. That what was all those feelings in my stomach, little kits growing inside of my belly. I purred and Darkstar looked at me with wide eyes and his gaze softened.
" I'm going to still give you an apprentice, I'll have their ceremony right now. Then you can move to the nursery." Darkstar mewed. I nodded and followed him out of the medicne cat's den and sat down in the front of the Skystone.
" All cats gather her below the Skystone for a clan meeting!" Darkstar yowled. Dandelionpaw, and Firepaw raced from the apprentice's den and soon followed Coguarpaw, and then Mousepaw. Frostheart padded out of the nursery with her three kits Lakekit, Frozenkit, and Lilykit next to her. Flowernose, placed her prey on the fresh kill pile and padded over to sit besides me.
" Cats of Lightclan." Darkstar mewed when all cats were in the clearing. " It is time Frostheart's kits were apprenticed. Lakekit, Frozenkit, and Lilykit come here." The three kits bolted towards Darkstar with Lakekit in the lead. I purred when I saw the kits and my heart swelled with pride.
" Froenkit, from this moment on you will be known as Frozenpaw." The pale blue tom puffed up his chest and his eyes shone.
" Leopardnose," Darkstar mewed. " You are a great warrior, and I know you will train this young apprentice well." The she-cat padded forward and nodded her head, eyes shining she touched her nose to her new apprentice's. She led him to the back of the clearing.
" Lilykit, from this moment on you will be known as Lilypaw." The reddish tabby she-cat's eyes shone and yellow eyes gleamed.
" Dewdrop, you will mentor Lilypaw. Teach her all that Oakfrost has taught you." Dewdrop nodded and touched her nose to Lilypaw's. My thoughts suddenly started to sink in and I looked up at Darkstar and smiled happily. Darkstar smirked down at me.
" Lakekit, from this moment on you will be known as Lakepaw." Darkstar mewed. The she-cat purred and bounced around happily.The clearing rumbled with purrs and Lakepaw stopped, noticeing what was going on.
" Winterstorm, you will mentor this young she-cat. Lakepaw is an energetic one, and I always knew you were also. I know you will be a great mentor to this young cat." I stood up and nodded my head at Darkstar. I touched my nose to Lakepaw's and the clan began to cheer.
" Frozenpaw! Lilypaw! Lakepaw!" Darkstar smiled and looked down at me, pride clouding his gaze.
" Also, we have a new queen moving to the nursery. Winterstorm is expecting kits!" Darkstar purred. The clan turned their gazes towards me and I looked at me paws, unable to met their gazes. Lakepaw purred and nudged my shoulder. As if a sigh, my clan mates began to file in and congratulate me. I nodded and smiled, but I really did smile when Darkstar and Dewdrop padded up to me.
" Im so happy for you!" Dewdrop purred rubbing her muzzle against me check.
" You'll be a wonderful mother, plus your having kits in green leaf. There isn't any danger." I then froze, danger. Loved ones, Scourge. It all made sense know. I bolted towards the nursery, ignoring Darkstar's and Dewdrop's shocked looks.
SCourge was going to try and kill me kits! He knew I was going to have them one day and know he's going to kill them! I curled up in a nest, know I didn't want these kits. They would died at Scourge's paws and I would feel guilty and heartbroken the rest of my life, but there was nothing I could do. No, there wasn't only wait for these kits to be born.
A half of a moon passed and I had just kitted three beautiful kits. A she-cat and two toms. I purred and licked each kit. Rosepool purred and Darkstar pushed his way into the nursery. When he saw the kits his eyes softened. I had never had the guts to tell Darkstar my fears, but I was to overwhelmed by happiness to think about them.
" Their beautiful." Darkstar purred laying next to me and licked my check. The she-cat looked just like Sweetstream, a black tabby. One of the toms had my white pelt with a single black paw, and the other tom looked like Tigergaze, a dark brown pelt but with darker brown tabby marks.
" What should we name them?" Darkstar purred.
" The tom with the dark brown pelt Frogkit." I burst. Darkstar nodded and placed his paw on the she-cat's black tabby pelt.
" How about for the she-cat Sweetkit?" I gasped and Darkstar's gaze was full of sympathy.
" Sweetstream would love it." I whispered, purring. " Then the last tom, Ravenkit." I mewed. Darkstar nodded and looked down at his kits proudly.
" Welcome my beloved Frogkit, Sweetkit, and Ravenkit." Darkstar purred. I purred but then my worries started up again, and then my worries came true.
