Thistlestar's Rule

Ch1

Bluefur's POV

I curled close to Mistykit, Stormkit, and Mosskit. No one-not even my own sister- knew that their father wasn't Thrushpelt, it was Oakheart of Riverclan.

I had given up the place as deputy so that my kits could at least know their mother for a while.

"Let all cats old enough to catch prey gather here!" I perked my ears and stood up. "I wonder what Sunstar wants to say." Sparrowpelt mewed.

Instead of Sunstar, Thistleclaw stood. "Sunstar is dead!-" Gasps of horror passed through the crowd. "As I was saying, since I'm deputy, I will go to the Moonstone tonight. But before I do, I will name Adderfang as my deputy!" Thistleclaw yowled.

Adderfang dipped his head. "I will do my best Thistlestar." Thistleclaw purred. "Yes. I am now Thistlestar!"

Beside me, my sister Snowfur yowled happily, "Thistlestar! Thistlestar! Thistlestar!" I glared at her. "Are you a mouse-brain?!"

Snowfur growled and lashed her tail. "What do you have against him?" I narrowed my eyes and Goosefeather's head shook frantically.

"N..Nothing. It's just something about him." I stammered and I dropped my gaze. Snowfur twitched her whiskers and mewed, "Well he's your leader. It's in the warrior code to stand by him."

I sighed. "I know, but honestly I just want to care of my kits and that's it." Snowfur nodded. "I get it. I mean you really liked Sunstar."

I purred. "Thanks Snowfur. I've got to go see the kits." The white she-cat nodded. I flicked my ear and heard the soft pitter-patter of Mistykit and Mosskit's paws.

Mistykit leaped on me. "Surrender you Shadowclan filth!" I mock yowled and fell to the ground dramatically. "No..don't

Don't hurt me!" I whimpered eyes gleaming.

Mistykit growled, "I'm taking you to Mossstar." I gasped and pawed the air "No...Not Mossstar!" Mosskit bounded toward Mistykit. "Great job Mistyflight!"

Snowfur purred. "Ok kits come on. Time for bed." I pushed Mistykit off lightly. "Yes kits. Listen to Snowfur."

Thrushpelt appeared and Stonekit and the other kits yowled happily and pounced on him. "Help! The mighty Thunderclan got me!"

I purred and picked Stonekit and flicked my tail. "Come. Time for bed." Mistykit and Mosskit whined.

I leaped and awoke to loud screeching. "Snowfur!" I yowled and whipped around to find her panting hard.

"G..Get Featherwhisker and Goosefeather! Kits are coming!" I blinked and gasped, "Your expecting!?"

Snowfur nodded. "Yes... their Thistlestar's. I've...been expecting...for moons now."

I stared at Snowfur. "You're expecting THISTLESTAR'S kits!" I screeched. Featherwhisker raced in.

"What's happening?" He meowed eyes wide. "Snowfur's kiting. Thistlestar's kits." I hissed. Featherwhisker's eyes grew wider.

"There early!" "I'll be back." He mewed and dashed away. "He knew!" Snowfur nodded, to tried to answer.

Featherwhisker appeared again, this time with a stick and a few dark green leaves. "Bite the stick."

Snowfur didn't reply but gripped the medium sized stick firmly. "First one is coming." Snowfur have a muffled squeak. "A tom." Snowfur yowled and splinters fell.

"A she-cat!" Featherwhisker mewed. "I think their is one more." Snowfur gripped the stick and yowled again and the stick fell in splinters.

"Another tom!" Featherwhisker purred. "Good job Snowfur. Your done." The entrance shook and Thistlestar pushed through. "Snowfur! What happened!?"

Snowfur panted and gasped, "Your kits. They came early." Featherwhisker mewed. "Congratulations Thistlestar you have two she-kits and a tom!"

Thistlestar purred. Snowfur gazed at her kits. One she-kit was silver with white patches. The tom was completely white with amber eyes, and the other she-kit was black with blue eyes.

"The black one, Ravenkit. The white tom, Whitekit, and the other Cloudkit."
