The dark grey shecat woke back up in the pack's camp and looked around. She was next to Muddle. She looked even plumper now. Shadow blinked my eyes and saw Pebble looking at her.
"You are awake! Thank you! You were out for about a moon and a half of a moon. I didn't know if you were ever going to wake up. Muddle is due really soon and I don't know how to deliver kits." Pebble explained making her eyes blink again trying to process all of this.
She was out for almost two moons. She was in StarClan seeing her sister kill innocent cats for almost two moons. I'll do it Sunwish. I'll train in the clans to get better. She thought looking just past Pebble.
"Did you all get rid of the fox? Did anyone else get hurt? No one died because I wasn't up did they?" She asked Pebble concerned. If Brown died because of her, she would feel really bad since he had saved her life since Mud was too dead to help her out.
"Yes, we got rid of the fox. Brown got a few bad cuts but he survived. Night got there a little later so he didn't get too many bad scratches." Pebble explained looking at the dark grey female. Shadow let out a sigh of relief.
"I'm just glad you woke up before I gave birth. I don't think Pebble would have liked to do that." Muddle joked but when she laughed she winced a bit. Shadow got up slowly but fell back down. Her legs hadn't walked in almost two moons. She forgot about that.
"No I wouldn't have. I wouldn't have known what to do. Do you need anything for the pain? Shadow is awake now so I can help more." Pebble said looking at Muddle worrisomely.
Shadow smiled then remembered Mud was gone. She hadn't heard anything about him. They might not had found him yet. That made no sense. He was dead. He would be easy to find unless he crawled away somehow. Don't get your hopes up. He's dead. You watched him die! Shadow hissed in her own brain trying to not act super happy that she hadn't heard anything about him. She had to ask.
"What about Mud? Is he okay? He didn't come to help me when we were hunting so I didn't know what happened." Shadow said slowly trying to make sure she didn't sound like he already knew he was dead. Pebble's whole expression changed at the mention of her older brother.
"We haven't found him but we found a lot of his blood. If I had to say, I think he died. He might have met the fox first and tried to distract it. He would have been badly injured and tried to get away. His scent went to the river and then it vanished. I'm so sorry Shadow. I know how much you cared about him." Pebble said looking down at the ground. Shadow frowned and looked at the ground as well. He really was dead then.
