Chapter24
"Let us all cats old enough to catch their own prey. Gather around here under this rock for a clan meeting."
Every cat stopped on their tracks and quickly padded underneath YellowStar. Excited murmurs rose in the clan camp. YellowStars ears twitched. "Silence." Her deep voice rang. Every cat turned towards her with huge eyes. "I have called you all here for a wonderful news and a shocking news." Questioning chatter rose in the hollow. YellowStar rolled her Amber eyes.
"Hush!" All eyes on the Northclan leader round eyes as moons. "SnowTail and BlizzardFang has given us three healthy kits today." Cheering yowls and congratulating meows rose. BrookHeart was at the Medicine cat den with BrackenKit next to her side. He was still trembling against her. Bolt was near by with SpikeFur at his side. SkyPaw couldn't help but admire SpikeFurs broad shoulders. BrookHeart rolled her eyes as she chuckled lightly. Then she turned her gaze towards BlizzardFang. He was sitting straighter,his dark green eyes shining. "And now for the shocking news." BrookHeart cleared her throat,anxiety rising. "StarClan has given us a visitor today. He was found by two of our warriors out next to the river. BrookHeart and Bolt." All eyes went towards Bolt and BrookHeart. Bolt smiled as his ear twitched. BrackenKit scrambled back bristling over fear. "BrackenKit. He's a 5 moon kit who was brutally beaten by a SouthClan warrior." All cats gasped over dismay. "ShotTail is his name." BrookHeart looked at Bolt as SpikeFur gasped. "Oh no." He hissed under his breath. BrookHeart narrowed her eyes at the young Tom. 'What does he mean .Oh No'
"That's against the Warrior code!" Hissed AshTail. Moonlight nodded as RedNose murmured in agreement. SilverHeart,who was barely expecting RedNoses kits,pushed her silver tabby fur against RedNoses dark ginger. "I'm not gonna let anything happen to you or our kits." RedNose vowed inSilverHearts ear. She buried her head at the crook of his neck and twined their tails. "I know."
BrookHeart watched with sadness. 'Only if that would be Bolt and I' she thought miserably. "Tomorrow is the gathering. I must speak to WhiteStar about it. " SpikeFur narrowed his eyes. He quickly bounded towards his leader. "Wait!Wait wait!" He yowled. He looked up eyes shining. "I... Well.... Yesterday.. Before my warrior name ceremony... I ran into a warrior from SouthClan and h-" "In our borders?" Hissed YellowStar. SpikeFur,startled, shook his head ashamed. He caught his former mentors narrowed green eyes then quickly glanced back at his leaders. "Well no.. I was hunting and I heard hissing... So I wanted to know what was happening... I snuck around and peeked through a bush.. And well.. I saw MintTail and his apprentice..umm he was abusing his apprentice and I heard him say NightStar..." YellowStar sat down carefully listening. "And his apprentice.. It was Shot..ShotTail..." Every cat gasped in shock. Angry murmurs rose in the hollow. "You trespassed in their territory?" She meowed with narrowed eyes. SpikeFur bowed. "Yes. I did." YellowStar huffed. "And have they caught you?" She asked bitterly. SpikeFur shook his head. "No." He lied. She sighed and nodded. "Thank you SpikeFur. I must talk to this NightStar. I can't wait to meet him face to face." She meowed. "The meeting is over. Proceed on necessary duties." She leaped off of the rock and padded towards BrownFur.
BrookHeart padded towards SpikeFur. "Hey? " he jumped and settled himself. "Oh hey" he meowed calmly. BrookHeart can see the shame in his Amber gaze. "You don't have to feel guilty for trespassing SouthClans territory." She giggled. "It's not like your gonna go back to apprentice jobs for it. In Fact you'll probably go to the gathering." SpikeFur looked up,his eyes blankly. "I know. May I speak to SkyPaw." BrookHeart just stared at him. "Of course you can. You don't have to tell me. Nor WolfClaw..." 'Ugh he already knows that bolts the father.' SpikeFur straightened up and smiled. "I haven't told any cat. Don't worry." He whispered. BrookHeart watched with shock. 'How in the name of StarClan did he know.' "I could tell,BrookHeart. I don't have powers." He chuckled and bounded away towards her daughter,who was talking to her sister and SilverHeart. 'Oh he's a cheeky one' He whispered something in SkyPaws ear. She giggled and nodded. BrookHeart just smiled. 'After your warrior ceremony. You'll have kits already in Ya.' She thought. 'And I'll be a grandma' she stared off,blankly till she felt a soft tug on her tail. She turned and saw BrackenKit playing with her tail. BrookHeart smiled and moved her tail left to right up and down. BrackenKit squealed as he jumped and swiped at her tail tip. She jumped on all fours and bristled playfully. "Oh you! I'm a horrible badger. And I want your brains!" She hissed. BrackenKit just squealed as he got in hunters crouch. "Over my dead body!" He hissed. He leaped at her shoulder and nipped at it. BrookHeart began to giggled as she fell on her side. She began to gag. "Oh. It's. Painful.Ehhhh" she let while body limp and held her breath her tongue hanging out of the side of her lips. BrackenKit got on her side and stood up straight huffing his chest. "I'm a fighter. I'm not a loser." He got off and nudged BrookHearts nose with his little pink one. BrookHeart playfully cuffed at his ear and staggered up. She shook herself embarrassed as she noticed WolfClaw watching with amusement, while meowing to Bolt. BrackenKit followed her gaze and gasped,scurrying behind her her,blocking the view of the huge blackesh brown warrior while he was approaching leaving Bolt watching with narrowed eyes. BrookHeart laughed lightly. "He's shy." WolfClaw nodded. He stalked slowly around BrookHeart as BrackenKit was peeking through her side facing the other way. BrackenKits nose twitched as he quickly turned and squealed as he was nose to nose with WolfClaw. "Hey there,BrackenKit." He meowed winking. BrackenKit just puffed out his chest. "You don't scare me." He meowed confidently.WolfClaw sneered. He lifted his lips and exposed his teeth. "Do I now?" BrackenKit narrowed his eyes and lifted his lips exposing his small teeth. "Do I scare you?"
WolfClaw chuckled and padded in front of BrookHeart. "Oh yea. He's another pawful. Just wait till he's a full grown cat. Skillfull and Loyal ." BrookHeart giggled while BrackenKit pranced around her. "Oh yes. I want to be leader to." BrookHearts eyes widened with shock sighing and looked down at her new foster kit. "First you need to know the warrior code. You have a lot of learn,first." She looked up and met her kits Foster father. "Don't praise him much. He's new here." She whispered. WolfClaw just shrugged and flicked his tail at BrackenKit. "Catch you later. I must join a hunting patrol." He bounded towards BrownFur. BrookHeart looked up and noticed the sun was lowering. She sighed then gasped when she met bolts blue eyes. He smiled and padded towards WolfClaw and AshTail. 'Well at least we had a lone time together.' She looked down at BrackenKits wondrous pale green eyes. She smiled after a moment. "Cmon. It's time we take a nap." She bent over and licked her foster kits head. She carefully lifted him from his scruff not wanting to make him feel pain after his injuries. When she padded in the nursery den memories flushed through her head when she remembered SkyPaw and RainPaw very small and fragile. No cat can blame them for worst things. Now their apprentices. Older and stronger. 'Hopefully they don't do horrible stuff' she padded towards her former nest in the nursery a fox length away from SnowTail. 'Not like me. Not what I did.' She lightly placed BrackenKit down and then she settled herself down. BrackenKit curled in front of her belly and let out a small yawn. "Goodnight momma." He lifted his head startled after he called her momma. BrookHeart purred. "I am you new momma. You can call me that." He purred along with then nuzzled her belly fur,his breathing becoming more shallower. BrookHeart licked his head softly not wanting to wake her new foster kit up. She paused and glanced at her best friend. The snowy white SheCat was watching with amusement. "Finally we have something to do together,huh?" She asked. BrookHeart nodded with acknowledgement. "Oh yes." She glanced at SnowTails kits. One was a ginger and white SheCat the second was a golden SheCat and the third ,which was the smallest ,was a white Tom. "What are their names?" She meowed with a curious face. SnowTails eyes widened. "Oh my. Where are my manners. The ginger and white is SunnyKit. The goldenesh one is GoldenKit and the white is FrostKit." She pointed to each kits when she mentioned of their names. BrookHearts eyes began to shine. "Only if I had my first litter with you,SnowTail." She meowed miserably. SnowTail giggled. "Oh,BrookHeart. You have BrackenKit right now with my kits. At least they'll be together for a month." BrookHeart shook her head. "It won't be the same,SnowTail. We were closer." She meowed sharply. SnowTail just tinted a small smile her blue eyes hurting. BrookHeart let out a small gasp with her green eyes flooding with guiltiness "I'm so sorry."
SnowTail just shook her head. "Don't be silly BrookHeart. There's no need to apologize." She lowered her head narrowing her eyes with amusement. "Remember when we were kits?" She whispered. BrookHearts eyes flashed with amusement while nodding her head,purring. "Oh yes." SnowTail raised her head "Well remember when WolfClaw, BerryClaw, AshTail and BlizzardFang and us had a competition on who can run the fastest." BrookHeart let out a small mrrow of amusement. "Or who can climb the fastest." She added smirking. SnowTail rolled her eyes smiling wildly." You and BerryClaw would always end up as a tie then horrible quarrels would start." Both SheCats just sighed over their old memories. "Now look at us. Grown cats and already with mates and kits." BrookHeart nodded in agreement. "Or lonely." She cleared her throat and quickly added."AshTail." They both cracked up raisiny the. Hushed up for their kits. SnowTail yawned "I think we should get some sleep. Tomorrow we both have busy days." BrookHeart nodded in agreement. She watched as SnowTail curled around her kit protectedly and rested her soft bushy tail on her nose. BrookHeart did the same and sighed as her eyelids closed.
'I've rescued a kit and i need to care for him. Oh please StarClan let BrackenKit have a wonderful future.'
