Eyes blazing, Galeheart breathed heavily, looking from one tom to the other. He caught Owlgaze's gaze (XD) and nodded the tom towards Spiderstar. The massive deputy was furious, and rightfully so. "What in STARCLAN'S NAME is going on here? Fighting, claws unsheathed in the nursery? With newborn kits right next to you? Explain yourselves!" He ordered.

Now favouring her leg heavily and limping on the side where fresh claw marks now ripped through her fur and skin, blood quickly soaking her fur red rather then simply damp from the rain outside. Her ears were pinned flat to her skull in pain, struggling to remain upright. She snarled at the pain, her tail lashing from side to side as her knees buckled from beneath her. Leaving her sprawled out on her side.

As much as he didn't want to believe Pounceclaw of all cats, a cold feeling trickled down to his feet, giving him the feeling that he was telling the truth. "Is this true, Duskblaze?" He asked, his mew nothing more than a cold, quiet growl.

Pounceclaw's amber eyes locked onto Galeheart. The tom shook his head in feign disbelief at what had just unfolded. "Duskblaze and I got into an arguement...before I knew it he was throwing himself at me with claws unsheathed..." He meowed before adding, "I was just trying to defend myself." He then asked in a surprisingly convincing worried tone, "Is she going to be okay?"
Owlgaze's tuft ears pinned back slightly as he snapped at his brother, "Shut up! Let me work!" He then called out, trying to keep his voice steady, "Mistypaw where are those cobwebs?!" He hurriedly grabbed them from his apprentice and pressed the wad to Spiderstar's wound. "Come here and help me press these down!" He instructed.

Duskblaze stepped back in horror, “Spiderstar! No!” He began trembling violently, “Owlgaze, what should I do?” He wanted to howl in fear for his mate and their unborn kits

Owlgaze's eyes narrowed slightly at Duskblaze. The small medicine cat wasn't one to have an angry side but Duskblaze not only had hurt his own mate, but had attacked his brother as well. "I think you've done enough." The medicine cat meowed flatly, turning his attention back to Spiderstar and her wound. "It's ok Spiderstar, just take it nice and easy. Deep, slow breaths."

Blood was quickly staining the moss beneath her slender frame, in his mates anger his claws had torn deep through her skin and into her swollen belly. The leader hadnt thought in trying to intervene in the fight, and now she was paying the cost for it. Spiderstar's eyes glazed over and her small frame started to spasm and jolt with pain. Until she fell still and her eyes closed shut. She was losing her first life, and probably her kits with it.

Springfur rushed up to Galeheart and Pounceclaw, “You can’t possibly believe this mange pelt can you?” She hissed at the deputy, “Duskblaze would never unsheathe his claws unless he was in danger!” She defended her shaken brother with her head held high

Sweetberry couldn't help but feel her pelt rise slightly. The she-cat wasn't one to be outspoken, but when it came to her family she had to do something. "Now wait a second! Pounceclaw didn't lunge first! Duskblaze did!" Her green eyes glittered in defense, "Regardless of what Pounceclaw may have said in an argument it didn't call for claws to be unsheathed!" She meowed in protest, locking eyes with Springfur.

"Quiet, Springfur. Duskblaze can speak for himself. Well, Duskblaze? Is this true?" Galeheart repeated. He didn't want to believe it, that a noble warrior like Duskblaze could have done such a thing, but he needed to hear the truth from Duskblaze. He cast a worried glance at Spiderstar. Both Owlgaze and Mistypaw were with her, however, and the Clan needed him to sort this out before anything else.

Swansong shook her head as much as she hated to she had to tell the truth "I saw the whole thing. The two of them taunting each other. I warned them to cut it out but they didnt listen. Duskblaze attacked first but Pounceclaw was doing more than just defending himself." She told the deputy. She would have said more but she turned and her eyes widened as she saw her leader spasm knowing what was happening. "Shes loosing a life." she meowed softly knowing the kits would die with that life

Oh no...please Starclan...don't let this happen... The tom shook the leader gently, "Spiderstar come on stay with me! You're going to be ok! You hear me?! Stay with me!" He cried out grabbing more cobwebs, his white paws soaked with her blood.

The enraged deputy sighed, closing his eyes for a second to gather himself. "For now, both of you stay well and far away from each other. I don't even want you two on the same side of the nursery. I'll decide on your punishments later. Our leader needs me right now." He decided. He rested his tail, signalling that both toms were free to go for now, before padding to Spiderstar's side.

Pounceclaw gasped. "I did no such thing!" His tail lashed slightly. "It was you that started hurling insults and being hostile when I merely wanted to have a conversation with you!" His amber eyes then shifted over to where Owlgaze was tending Spiderstar and he had to suppress a smile. She was losing a life...that meant her kits were as good as gone too. The tom shot one more look over to Duskblaze before padding away, his eyes glittering in victory.

Duskblaze shoved past Galeheart, “Spiderstar, please Spiderstar wake up!” He pressed his nose into her fur wailing silently, “I’m so sorry my love”

(Oh snap)
Whitehawk walked over to Pounceclaw, hoping to prevent anymore fighting. "Jeeze, what was he thinking." He muttered to Pounceclaw, glaring at Duskblaze. "Some warrior." He shook is head as he noticed that Spiderstar was struggling.
Redwing relaxed a bit, glad the fighting had stopped but was now worried about Spiderstar. She hadn't moved, and the medicine cats were all over her. She felt bad for Duskblaze though, he must feel terrible.

"That's enough." Galeheart ordered sharply. "We'll have no more of this. If I hear any more from either of you two, you'll be combing the elders for ticks for the next moon." Unwilling to let the two squabbling toms impede him any longer, he looked worriedly to Spiderstar. "What can I do to help?" He asked Owlgaze.

Owlgaze was at a loss for words. He had never been in this situation. The medicine cat could feel his eyes begin to well up, but he choked in down. He couldn't lose his composure right now. Everyone would panic if they saw the medicine cat lose it. Instead the tom whispered, "Just keep pressing the cobwebs...please." Owlgaze looked up sadly at Galeheart and just shook his head. "She's in Starclan's paws now."
Pounceclaw glanced over at Whitehawk and gave a deep sigh. "The last thing I wanted was anyone to get hurt. Let alone Spiderstar..." It was a flat out lie. In fact, Pounceclaw got more than he had hoped for.

Galeheart closed his eyes briefly, sending a silent prayer to StarClan. Please StarClan, don't take them from us. Please. He couldn't let the clan see how rattled he was. Now more than ever, he needed to be strong. "Alright, everyone please go back to what you were doing." He mewed, forcing his mew to stay calm. "Let's give Owlgaze and Mistypaw space to work. That's the best we can do for Spiderstar. That means you too, Duskblaze." He added, with a tone that meant Duskblaze was better off not arguing with him after what had just happened.

It seemed to be an eternity before Spiderstar began to breathe again, the way her flank rose was jerky and struggling to take in breath, but she was alive even if she had lost a life. Spiderstar opened her eyes with a gentle whimper, looking more weak then anyone had ever seen their young leader. She said weakly, "My kits, my kits. Are my kits ok?" Her words were croaky and painful.

(Wait just for clarification her kits are dead? or no? I just want to make sure)

(So we had two options here and I wanted input on it:
i - The kits die with the life, end of, Spider= incredibly sad.
ii - StarClan saves the kits, but at the cost of four of Spider's further lives [four kits, one for each of her next lives] leaving her with five lives left, and giving Pounce a greater chance/ability to kill her.
What do you think?)
