"Neither, I slept fine." Cottonpelt said with a grumble. "I don't really have anything on my mind either, but the fact remains, I am tired and cannot concentrate."

Cottonpelt gave Maplepaw a quizzical look as he mentioned Shadekit, but figured it'd be prying if she asked about it. Instead she nodded. "I just came from an unsuccessful hunt, but I'm game to try again!" With that she flexed her claws, as if testing them, and added. "You want to tag along? If I end up being useless as I was earlier then you'd make good backup."

"Great." Cottonpelt said, trying to sound enthusiastic, but yawning afterwards, the tiredness not worn away. "We're supposed to avoid fishing, right?"

Contest Results: First off, I'm sorry for the delay in this but I was really sick last week so I had to take some time to get better before doing this.
There were a total of three entries, and, ironically, each was for a different request. However, since Fern has been deleted from the clan, I'm omitting her entry.
Since there were only two entries and both were great, it was really hard to judge which would win. I think I have finally made my decision.
Winning entry: By RainyEverything was dark, no matter where she looked she couldn’t see a thing but that doesn’t mean she was alone.
“Tumble, my sweet Tumblekit are you awake?” The voice was soft and the cat who spoke had a very warm tone.
Suddenly it was bright, it hurt the little kits’ eyes and she wanted to close them again but soon colors filled her vision and all she wanted to do was look around to take in more colors and more sights. It was incredible, is this what she’d been missing? She should’ve opened her eyes sooner if she’d known just how beautiful the world was, and how beautiful the cat in front of her was.
Earlier she’d learned that this was her mother, and for the first moons she’d been alive she specifically identified her with scent, and oh how comforting it was. The little Tumblekit curled up even closer to her mother’s still swollen belly, the smell of milk strong. The small calico would eat later, she wasn’t all too hungry now. Her brothers on the other paw were desperately suckling at their mother’s teats like they’d never known a full belly, it made her giggle.
“Tumblekit, eat, you’re so small you need to grow big and strong like your brothers.” It was nice to match a face to the sweet-sounding voice of her mother, such a soothing sound.
The kit leans in to finally eat, but suddenly the scene changes and she’s being chased by one of her brothers, they were kicking up dirt as they ran around in the camp clearing. Fun, this was fun! But she was getting so tired so fast, they hadn’t been running outside of the nursery for very long, Tumblekit didn’t understand why she was feeling so weak so suddenly. It made sense though, that she couldn’t keep up with her brothers. They were bigger than her, and they were stronger than her. She was small, and if she remembered correctly she was the smallest of any litter currently in the nursery.
“Tumblekit, don’t stray too far. Stay with your brothers, they’ll protect you. Tumble, where’d you go?”
Her mother, her mother was calling for her, she’d better go back inside she still needs to eat. She trots back over to the nursery, but once she steps inside the den she finds that she’s not standing in the nursery but in another den. A den that smells strongly of herbs and faintly of…of sick cats. This doesn’t feel right, where’s her mother? Where are her brothers? A wave of relief hits her when she finally finds her mother, curled up in a nest that’s not her own and looking so thin, but the smell of milk entices the little kit and so she lays with her mother and beside her brothers who don’t move at all for her, rude. Tumblekit nudges her face in the belly full of milk to finally have a proper meal. As she suckles, she jumps back in surprise to find that the milk tastes sour.
“Darling no, momma’s milk will make you sick and you’re still so weak. Stay with your father he’ll protect you. We’ll all be better soon. Listen to me, we’ll be better soon. I love you.” The sweet-sounding voice no longer sounds sweet, but distorted and raspy. Something isn’t right.
The air smells foul, and of death.
“Be better soon. Be better soon. Be better soon. Be better soon.” It keeps repeating in her head, over and over and over again. Someone calls out to her, their voice quiet but she can still hear. The voice turns into voices which then turn to wails, interrupted by coughing fits. The foul-smelling air grows more pungent, more awful by the second. The ground shakes with the coughing and now the calico is rubbing her head on the ground, trying to drown out the sound, drown out the wailing and the coughing. Father, where is her father? He’s supposed to be here, he’s supposed to be protecting her.
Finally, finally she spots him and she feels safe again. She was lost but now that she’s found him she can relax again, she can finally be happy again. Tumblepaw goes to press against her father but nearly falls because there’s nothing there to support her.
“Don’t follow me. Stay with the clan, they’ll protect you. I’m sorry. I love you.” The words hang in the air and Tumble is alone again.
She wails, she screams, she cries out just trying to be heard by anyone, by her brothers or her mother. She calls for her father, begging for him to come back. The image of him leaving replays itself over and over in her head and no matter how fast she runs after him she can never catch up.
Everything is dark, she can’t see a thing.
“Tumbleblossom, Tumbleblossom wake up. What’s wrong? Are you okay?” The voice is deep and sounds concerned.
Opening her eyes again she finds her mate, Windlash, staring at her. His face silhouetted by the light of the moon that seeps into the den that smells of milk and kits. She looks down to find three furry bundles curled around her belly, not having been disrupted by their mothers stirring or whimpering while she slept. Bringing her gaze back up to the tom, a gentle smile falls on her lips and she finds herself relaxing once again, feeling safe once more. It takes her a moment to realize that this is her reality. She’s got a loving mate by her side and kits at her belly, this is more than she could’ve ever asked for. A family, she has a family again.
“Yes, I’m fine. Thank you. Just a dream is all, I’m fine, really. I love you.” And the incredible entry by Hawk:Cherrypetal blinked as she listened in on a conversation about Sunstripes. The two she-cats were going on and on about Sunstripe's looks and his heartbreaker ways. She shuffled her feet feeling uneasy. When she joined the clan, Cherrypetal had o idea Sunstripes had a record. For a time, she wondered if he truly cared about her. Cherrypetal looked down at her paws as he mind started going down a dark path. Maybe joining the clan had been a mistake. I don't exactly fit in.
"Hello there beautiful." A deep voice rumbled. Cherrypetal looked up in surprise to see Sunstripes looking at her. When did he come over and from where? He leaned forward and licked her cheek. "Ready to head the meadow? The sun is going to set soon." Cherrypetal stared at him for a few minutes before nodding her head. Seeing the way, he looked at her made her doubts disappear. "Y-Yeah let's go." Prize:
In upcoming events, we are about to meet two young cats named Tiger and Flame. They reveal themselves to be the children of Goldenstar and her mate Tigerflame.
The prize for winning this event is the character Flame!
