"So it was you then, who told Eaglestar?" Bonefang looked at Singedthunder, he gave him a bored expression and suddenly turned into fury. "Get away from me!" he hissed loudly in the other tom's face, his fur standing on end. He didn't care if everyone in camp heard him, in fact he did want them all to know to stay the dark forest away from him!

Singedthunder had expected this to be the reaction, his ears twitched forward a sadness clear in his dark brown eyes. He shrugged his shoulders, backing away a little as to put himself outside of clawing distance. He spoke lowly, "I did what I thought was best for the clan, and it appears that an innocent cat has died because of it. You have my condolences."

" Before I speak , I ask that you be willing to listen to what I have to say , " She put on her charm as best she could , without it being intensely over the top and obvious . She'd been through the ringer before , if there was anything Rosethorn knew how to do , it was impress . " You're a smart leader , there's no denying that . You were right for doing what you did ; the clan can't have weak links ... So I have a proposition for you . "
She carefully moved her tail , revealing the four kits below her . she instead moved to the side , curling her tail around them to keep them warm on the cool ground . However , she made sure to keep them from Bonefang's sight .
" Morningflight died shortly after she gave birth , " She began to choose her words carefully , keeping her tone even and respectful , " However , despite her disadvantage in life , her kits appear to have nothing wrong with them in the least . It may sound a bit strange , but I can't help but wonder if it's some sort of ... sign , perhaps ? " She kept a curious air in her tone as she looked to the kittens .
" I mean , their mother was broken and yet these kits came out alive with nothing wrong - believe me , I checked thoroughly . I wouldn't bring these scraps of fur back to you if they were defective ... Kits are the future of our clan ; some wise words you've spoken in the past . These kits could be of use to us , even though their mother was not . Should anything be wrong with them as they get older , then you'll have to make decisions . But ... with our clan the way it is , would you want to risk throwing away four potential Warriors ? " She tipped her head to the side , her eyes widening slightly as she looked back to her leader .

"Go back to fearing your mouse-brained leader and your starry dead cats! The blood isn't on my paws, its on yours and Eaglestar's!" He spat, making a false charge at the tom to make him back off more. A loud growl rumbled in his throat.

Sparkkit squeaked and squirmed, she was a pitifully small scrap of fur but there was strength behind her little voice. A willingness to live. Her little voice echoed across the camp, as she struggled about looking for milk.

Eaglestar growled upon seeing the kits, but hearing Rosethorn's little speech he thought for a moment. Useless mother was dead and the clan would have four healthy warriors. "You certain the mother is dead? I'd rather not have to take care of that possible problem later on." he mewed with a grumpy tone.
Coldkit heard a hiss and tried to hide on the fluffy tail that was over him.

Sparkkit tucked against her brothers, finding warmth in the tail and trying to get away from the angry sounding voice. Even in her naivety she knew what anger sounded like, and to avoid it. She pressed close to Coldkit, the only other source of warmth in her close proximity and stayed quiet.
Singedthunder rolled his eyes, glancing over at Eaglestar and Rosethorn, twitching his ears as he watched the ongoings. "You might find interest in what she's brought into camp. But for starclan's sake play it cool." He added with a low growl, eyes narrowed. "No more innocent lives need to be lost today."

{Sure!}
Wildstorm emerged from the warriors den, the large tomcat shaking out his pelt as he bent into a stretch. Glancing around camp, he frowned as he looked for things to do.

" Affirmative , I saw her with my own eyes , " She assured him , " I know this is a lot to ask of you at a time like this , but I thought this could be a strategic move on your part . I think our best course of action would be to not give out the information to anyone whose kits they are . We'd need a Queen that can be trusted to take care of them , and if it would put you at ease , perhaps not let Bonefang be involved ... " She glared over her shoulder , but looked back with a sigh . " All of this I'm sure you've already thought of in this short period of time ; you're the leader after all , you know the best decisions . I hope you'll trust me enough to consider this one . " She dipped her head respectfully .

Coldkit felt something next to him, with a quick sniff he recognized it smelled like him almost. He relax against his sibling and tried to stare warm.
Bonefang looked at Rosethorn and Eaglestar, he took a few quiet steps closer to see what was going on. He thought he heard kits, "But where is Morningflight... His eyes widened and he felt like his heart was shattering, "No... No!"

Soon creating a little pile amongst themselves, the litter of four kits struggled to stay warm against the cold winds and without their mother. Sparkkit grew weaker the longer she went without a taste of milk, and a gentle mewl came from her throat.

Eaglestar thought for a moment, "Bonefang is no fool, he'll know those are his kits... However I think I have an idea. Thank you for this wonderful idea, and these wonderful new additions to the clan." he made a twisted smile and walked over to Bonefang.

" Thank you for your understanding , and your wise decision , " She smiled kindly , dipping her head . Her amber eyes met the kits and she began to gather them up and head for the nursery . One of the kits squeaked and mewled , clearly hungry . Rosethorn sighed , pushing her way through towards one of the queens . " Don't worry , you strange balls of fuzz ... You'll get somethin' to eat soon enough . " Though she didn't sound entirely irritated , she flattened her ears .
Relief washed over her , and she felt a surge of confidence course through her veins . Everything was falling into place .
As she coerced one of the queens to nurse the kittens , she thanked her and hurried off on her way , ready to continue with the next phase of her plan ...

Bonefang watched Eaglestar approach him, "Where is Morningflight?" he asked trying his best to stay calm.
"She didn't make it I'm afraid, it was her time to join Starclan. However it seems she had four, healthy kits." Eaglestar said glancing back at the pile of four kits. "I'm not sure they can stay though, considering they do have tainted bloodlines. I suppose I could over look that if..."
"They need to be here where its safe, so what do you want?!" Bonefang panicked, he just needed what was left of his family to stay safe.
"Two things, one you remain loyal to this no matter what you think or believe in, meaning you will listen to me and every word I say. And secondly, and this one is the best part, they can't never know their real parents. That includes you, you will not be a part of their lives in anyway. Do I make myself clear?" Eaglestar questioned.
Bonefang didn't want to agree to this deal, but if it meant they would be safe and he could protect them then he had no choice. "I agree to your deal, so long as they live." He gave a small nod.

Sparkkit soon found her way to the belly of the strange queen, not discriminating as long as she was able to find something to eat. The little shecat buried her muzzle deep into the queens side and drank thirstily, little purrs coming from the tiny shecat as at last her hunger was quenched. The tiny kit was an almost perfect copy of her mother, though whilst it was hidden now, her eyes were her father's.

Eaglestar left with a smile, very pleased with himself.
Bonefang went to the nursery and poked his head inside, he knew he could never be a part of their life. But he had to at least see them.
Coldkit nuzzled against the queen, the strong scent of milk drawing him closer to the she-cat's belly where he eagerly began to feed.

{Sure!}
Wildstorm emerged from the warriors den, the large tomcat shaking out his pelt as he bent into a stretch. Glancing around camp, he frowned as he looked for things to do. Ebonymask noticed Wildstorm and waved her tail at him, "Hello Wildstorm, how are you?" she asked staring at him with her clear blue eyes.

As Rosethorn glanced back to the kits one last time , she looked over to see Bonefang . Her gaze was cold , but she nudged him with her tail . " I'm sorry it had to be this way . You have my condolences . " She looked to the tiny scraps of fur before turning away . " I did the best that I could ... " She sauntered off without another word , heading towards her brother , who sat towards the center of camp , watching her with stunned eyes .
" What you did was dangerous and reckless ... but you did it . You didn't ruin something . "
Rosethorn scoffed , rolling her eyes with a slight smirk . " I'm not always a jerk , you know . "
" Could'a fooled me , " He gave her a knowing smirk , pushing a squirrel towards her . " Eat something , will ya ? That way I don't have to hear your mouth . " Barkpelt chuckled .
Rosethorn bit into the squirrel , relieved to have something in her belly . She lied down with her front paws tucked under her , chewing away when Barkpelt mentioned something that caught her attention .
" So ... Are you really over that whole Deputy thing ? "
Rosethorn shifted uncomfortably , but played it off as she swallowed and gave a nod of her head . " Yeah , I think so . I guess I just ... really wanted that chance to prove myself , yknow ? But ... Guess it didn't work out . "
" If Starclan wanted you to be there , you would be , yknow ? "
Rosethorn tried her best not to dramatically roll her eyes . " Sure . "
But they would ...

Tinyflower settled on her side watching her new little of kits in silence. She drew them close to her belly, she wasn't about to refuse a hungry kitten a meal. Even if it was painful to see any other queen's litter use her milk, which her own kits would never be able to use after they were taken from her by a fox in the night. She gently licked each of them over the ears, careful to keep them warm to the best of her ability, not noticing the tom at the entrance of the den

Coldkit mewled and snuggled closer to Tinyflower, happy to finally have warmth and a full belly. He kneaded the she-cat's belly as he went for more milk, his tiny claws pulling a little at Tinyflower's fur.

Tinyflower winced at the tiny claws at her belly, leaning down to rearrange the kit in an attempt to stop his tiny claws pricking at her soft underbelly.

Dawnkit snuggled close to her littermates and the nursing Queen , purring loudly with content .
