Coldkit's eyes seemed to light up a bit and he nuzzled his nose against his mother's belly. He purred happily and closed his eyes, he couldn't understand how he felt but it was nice. It was safe here and he knew that very well, he made a small smile before going to suckle.

(sorry for poof, had dinner)
Tinyflower wrapped her long tail tightly around the little tom kit and drew him close to the curve of her belly with a rumbling purr.

Bonefang poked his head into the den, he was carrying a mouse he had caught earlier. He padded over to Tinyflower and placed the mouse next to her, "I know you're fully capable of getting prey for yourself, but I thought I'd help out." he mewed quietly before looking at the kits, he noticed they had started to open their eyes and he frowned a bit. He knew he would have to separate himself further from them now, but he was happy they were doing so well.
Coldkit looked at up at the bigger cat, it seemed to have a scent similar to his mother's. But the stranger still made him feel uneasy, he let out a little hiss, his fur fluffed out to make himself look bigger.

Twitching her ears backwards at the sound of pawsteps, the tiny shecat spun around at the further sound of her brother's hiss. Tilting her head to the side, she looked at him with curiosity. Her eyes widening at how much bigger then her she was, and she let out a little squeak. In contrast to her brother though, the miniature Morningflight crept forward, tail straight up behind her in a defensive manner. She sniffed at his paw, prodding at it. It didn't smell like her mother, and that was the only smell she'd ever known and as a result she was both curious and nervous.
Looking up at the sound of Bonefang entering the nursery, she grinned meekly. "Thanks, I haven't been able to peel myself away, and was beginning to starve." She said with a dramatic but kind tone, she would never have to go long without eating. The apprentices were always overly attentive when there were new kits in the nursery, especially wanting to meet the new clan members. She then looked down at her paws, with a gentle sigh. "They keep calling me mama?" She said lowly.

Bonefang smiled at Sparkkit, she looked just like her real mother. He sat down and flicked his tail a little bit in front of the kits, testing to see how they'd react. The big tom looked at Tinyflower and frowned, "I'm sorry, I know it can't be easy for you. When they get older maybe things will change and they can know the truth." he paused for a moment and sighed, "If it would help, once they can understand you can tell them you adopted them. Maybe they were found abandoned in the territory somewhere?" he suggested.
Coldkit looked at the tail curiously, he reached out a paw to touch it but he missed it. The kit crawled closer and tried to swat at the tail again, he managed to feel the soft fur of Bonefang's tail for a split second before it moved again.

Sparkkit followed the tail with her eyes for a short moment, she didn't know what instinct was driving her but she had the urge to pounce. So she leapt, and went skidding into the dirt with a yelp of surprise as her uncoordinated legs fell short of the tail. Grunting she sat up, surprised by her first experience of pain and unsure what to do. Her pale brown eyes welled up with tears, uncertain of what else to do.
Despite herself she shook her head, licking the kits a second time with a little purr. "Its not me I'm worried about, I wanted to know if it was ok with you?"

(Ack sorry I wasn't very active today or yesterday))
Ripplekit whined and curled up smaller at the scent and sound of a new cat. He made a small noise resembling a word. "Ma.. mew." Ripplekit squinted his eyes, the first light he had ever seen filtering through. He ever so slowly eased his big, gray blue eyes open. He saw his siblings, as small as he, and then he saw his mother. He mewled again, and snuggled closer to her, away from the stranger. The noise made him uneasy and he complained again "Mewww..."

Pressing her nose into the little toms fur, she purred to Ripplekit with a bright smile. "Hello to you too little one," she said with a light chuckle. Drawing him closer to the curve of her belly, instinctually protective of the vulnerable newborns even around their father.

"Of course its fine with me," Bonefang smiled, "They deserve to have a mother in their life and I'm glad a kind she-cat like you get to be their mom." he purred as he watched his kits play and explore their little world. Maybe some day if something happened to Eaglestar he would be allowed to tell them the truth, but by then would it even matter?
Coldkit noticed something had bothered his sister enough to make her feel bad, he puffed out his fur again and tried to jump for the tail to teach it a lesson. He missed and experienced the slight pain Sparkkit did, shocked by this feeling he didn't more or say anything, completely unsure how to react.

Sparkkit struggled to her paws, limping, but mostly for dramatic effect. She didn't know what had happened and very much was not a fan of this strange feeling. She wanted to curl up at her mother's belly, where she had always felt happy and safe. Pulling herself back into the nest with a less than elegant heaving motion, difficult considering how little she was. She sat beside her mother with a huff.
Blushing a little at his words, the queen shrugged her shoulders. "I lost my own kits because of my stupidity, I just thank starclan for a second chance." She mumbled, pulling the four kits close to her belly. Terrified that she would lose these little ones like she had Shadowkit and Daisykit. As a result she was ridiculously protective of the four.

"We won't let the same horrible accident again, even if I had to take on a mangy fox all by myself." Bonefang mewed, he wouldn't let anything happen to any of them including Tinyflower. To lose their birth mother is already terrible, they shouldn't have to to another or lose each other. "They're a blessing, to us and to the clan." He purred.
Coldkit purred when he was pulled closed to his mother, he curled up next to her and rested his head on his paws. Watching the world around him silently.

Eyes darkening with tears, she rested her head across Coldkit's back, tucking him close to her fluffy chest with a growl. Not at the tom but out of sheer anger, "I would take on ten foxes before I let them touch these kits," she said with such a dark honesty that one might have mistaken her for a dark forest cat, fury and pain lighting her gaze at once. The fur along her spine bristled on end.

Bonefang moved his tail and placed it one Tinyflower's shoulder as a sign of comfort, "They're lucky to have you, you'll be a wonderful mother for them. Starclan must have given you a second chance because they knew how good a mother you would be." he mewed quietly. "And I know they'll never replace your kits, but I know you'll still love them like they were your own." he gave her a soft smile hoping to put the queen at ease.

Grimacing outwardly, she swiped her tongue across his ear in a grateful gesture. "I can only hope I'd be half the mother Morningflight would have been to them," she replied with a quiet voice. Watching them with a sad expression, images of Shadowkit and Daisykit flashing in her mind, she tried to shake the thoughts away. Remembering all too well the day she had returned to the nursery to find her two kits, barely half a moon old, gone. Leaving behind only a bloodied nest and a broken hearted queen. Closing her eyes, she thanked starclan for the new four, and prayed her own little kits were safe in their ranks.

Barkpelt was floored ; this was the strangest experience he'd had in his entire life . It was weird and yet , so intriguing . He didn't understand , but he wanted to . He raced ahead of Leaf Eye , leaping in a half circle to stand before him with bright eyes . There was a sense of innocence about the large tomcat , that much was for certain in his gaze . " W - Wait , How - How do you know ? How ... How do you see these things ? " He wasn't demanding , in fact , he sounded genuinely fascinated . Could he learn to read the world around him like that , too ? Or was there something special about this cat ? Who was he , anyway ? He still didn't figure it out ... " Are you a Medicine Cat ? " Those were the only cats he really knew of that knew how to interpret signs from Starclan like that , if that's what that even was .

Barkpelt was floored ; this was the strangest experience he'd had in his entire life . It was weird and yet , so intriguing . He didn't understand , but he wanted to . He raced ahead of Leaf Eye , leaping in a half circle to stand before him with bright eyes . There was a sense of innocence about the large tomcat , that much was for certain in his gaze . " W - Wait , How - How do you know ? How ... How do you see these things ? " He wasn't demanding , in fact , he sounded genuinely fascinated . Could he learn to read the world around him like that , too ? Or was there something special about this cat ? Who was he , anyway ? He still didn't figure it out ... " Are you a Medicine Cat ? " Those were the only cats he really knew of that knew how to interpret signs from Starclan like that , if that's what that even was . "Well I suppose I could be compared to what you call Medicine Cats," Leaf Eye mewed, having only heard the term maybe a paw full of times. "I see things, though it is quite rare I see things that point to the future. Usually it is pieces of our beginnings." he explained. He seemed pleased that the tom seemed interested in him, not many cats talk to him thinking he was crazy. |

Coldkit yawned and started to suckle, feeling safe and loved right where he was even with the strange cat nearby.
Bonefang smiled, "You'll do just fine, I'm sure of it." he purred. He gave his kits a quick lick on their heads, taking a step back he got ready to leave so they could rest.
Coldkit mewled as he was given affection by the stranger, but deep down it seemed okay for this bigger cat to give him licks.

Sparkkit blinked up at him, using a tiny paw to bat at his muzzle out of curiosity. She leant up trying to sniff at his nose, licking him back in an imitation of what he had done to her. Screwing up her nose at the strange taste, Nothing like milk! She seemed to think, but it wasn't unpleasant. She sat up on her back paws to try and look at the stranger properly. It was unsteady but she managed it, resting her front paws on his knee, as that was the only place she could reach.

Bonefang chuckled and purred at the kit, "You're beautiful just like her." he whispered and wrapped his tail around her to help lower her down gently. "You all make wonderful warriors someday." he smiled looking at all four of them.

(( I think Rose is occupied and Barkpelt is out with Leaf Eye , unless someone wants to talk to Rose in the med cat den ? ))
Barkpelt couldn't help but be curious , and was surprised to find that Leaf Eye didn't seem to mind him too much . He wasn't exactly a clan favorite , especially whilst living in the shadow of his sister .
" That's so cool , I wish I had some sort of gift like that ... I'm not good for much of anything . My sister , Rosethorn , she used to have to hunt twice as much just so I could become a warrior , I was so bad at it . " He flattened his ears in embarrassment .
He pelt burned a bit ; he wasn't that old and still had his life ahead of him , but he felt so lost without a purpose like his sister seemed to have . She had something to drive her to do more in her life ... Barkpelt ... Didn't .

(I meant Dawnkit XD)
Sparkkit laughed at his touch, gentle like a feather it tickled her. She licked his cheek again, before bounding back to her mother's side, tucking herself up beside the queen. Not taking her eyes off the massive tom, curiosity burning in her pale brown eyes.[/b][/sub]

(( OH YEAH IM DUMB SORRY OMG ))
Dawnkit was kind of off in her own little world . She seemed to have been going about stuff a little slower than the rest ,
only opening her eyes here and there the past sunrise or so . However , as she did open them , she slowly glanced up toward Bonefang , her face screwing up a bit as she tried to figure out who he was . She curled closer to her mother , making a low rumbling sound in her throat .

Leaf Eye tilted his head when Barkpelt mentioned his sister, he smiled "Do not worry, everyone has a place here. I'm sure you'll find your own path or reason to survive. Starclan brought us here to freedom so we could be ourselves, though I suppose having to take orders from someone like... Eaglestar must be unpleasant." he mewed, sounding a bit bitter at the end. He didn't know the leader personally, but he never really heard anything good from leader's in the past.

Tinyflower leant down to press her nose into the little shecat's fur, "Wake up little one?" She asked, concerned that Dawnkit wasn't as active as her sister and brothers. She rasped her tongue across the kitten's ear, a touch as soft as velvet. Careful with the small kit, wrapping her long tail around the fur with a rumbling purr as they buried deep into her belly fur.
