Tallwhisker simply stared at it, a growing silence filling the air and crushing him mentally. When finally he snapped out of his shock and grabbed the kit up by her scruff, it's scruff? His scruff? he couldn't really tell at this point because two thirds of the kit was buried beneath the snow. At first the kitten didn't come free and he was required to gently tug at the kitten to remove it from the icy hole before he stumbled around for a moment unsure of what to do. Mumbling around the kits fur "t-try to find its mom!" he meowed. Everything looked and felt so real to him. It hurt him mentally to think someone would do his to such an inocent kitten. It felt like his own kits, like his own kits life was in his paws. He had been denied the ability to visit his own kits because his mate had turned out to be using him. He had spoken to goldenstar about it and this walk was trying to get his mind off it, which finding a stray kitten which so closely resembled his own kin made his panic increase. So instinctively the Tom sat down and laid on his back still clutching the kitten, than he gently set the kitten down on his belly where his stomach fur was the thickest and warmest. The shock of how cold the kittens small paws made him gasp and flinch but he continued to try and warm the kitten up by curling into himself with his belly facing the sky and his paws on either side of the kit barring it from falling off. Now that he could see clearly the kitten was female, it had been outside for a long time now he had assumed, To allow this much snow fall to basically bury her. By looking at her face he could tell she was terrified which hurt his heart, so using what he knew about kittens he tried to soothe her. "Shhh, your okay now little kitten, there's nothing to worry about, we are here to help you" he meowed softly, his voice dropping a few octaves and becoming more gentle. [/CENTER]

Golden was still somewhat frozen in shock, watching motionlessly as Tallwhisker picked up the kit. Who would leave someone, especially a kit, right here? In the snow? They could die! Well, he guessed the parent that had done this was either the worst parent in existence, or they had died themselves. Thinking the second thought sent a shiver up his spine, but he knew it was probably true. The more moments that passed, the more he knew he needed to get out of a daze. Find the parent? He had snapped to attention long enough to hear what Tallwhisker was telling him to do. Despite the rouge scent everywhere, he was reasonably positive that it came from the kitten, anything else seemed pretty stale to him. Despite hearing Tallwhisker’s attempts to calm the kitten, he knew trying to find their parents wouldn’t work. “There aren’t any parents, at least not nearby,” he hissed in Tallwhisker’s ear, not wanting to startle the kit. “We need to get it back to camp!” He said quickly, snapping to attention for a moment. What else could he do? He had no idea, he had enough on his plate already. Taking a shaky breath, he looked back at the kit, smiling to the best of his ability.
