However, it seemed like there wasn't only one cat in front of him- looking down towards the small gray kitten which Whisperblaze was escorting, giving the small tomkit a friendly smile. "Hey, who's this little guy?" He laughed, nuzzling the kitten's cheek as well with fondness. Turning back towards his mate with a playful gaze, his thin-furred tail flicked back and forth as his paws shuffled awkwardly. "It's really nice to have you back- I thought you'd left for good." He loved Whisperblaze with all of his heart, and if he'd left the clan for a second time he wouldn't be able to bear any of it. Pausing for a few seconds to let the tom reply, he suddenly found himself distracted by a scent he hadn't been faced with for moons, something he knew quite dearly. Oh my StarClan- she can't be back here, not now! A panicked expression suddenly stretching onto his face, he froze with fear as he caught sight of his ex-mate Shellfeather having arrived in camp. His son, Spicepaw, had also arrived, but he didn't scare him quite as much as his mother did- he thought he would never see again, and he'd finally been able to move on. "Whisper... don't look behind you." He mumbled to his mate, pressing his nose against his cheek for a few seconds, the leader's expression paralyzed with worry.
Rabbitpaw was too late.

Even hearing his mates voice was such a relief to him. His body felt exsauted, wanting to just curl up in their shared nest and just rest. But there was a kit balanced on his back, and he wanted to have him settled before anything else. ¨Hi love, I missed you too. Even if it was olny two days I was gone it felt like moons.¨ he gave a soft chuckle. He looked on his back to where the kit was settled, ¨This is Shiverkit,I wanted to raise him myself, I know Im not queen but hes old enough to eat pray and-¨ his rambling stopped when his mate thought he was gone. He gave a soft smile, ¨Im never leaving for good, I promise you.¨ his voice was sincere. he knew a lot had happened to Russet in his life time, apprentices dying,kits dying, and exiling his own sister. And then Shellfeather had left. It seemed everything important had left his mate, and he didnt want him to think the same of him. He felt slight guilt for when he left for Thunderclan, and how scary that had been for the both of them. ¨I promise.¨ he whispered as a quiet promise between them. When his mate leaned close, he was expecting sweet nothings whispered in his ears or something,not words of pure fear. Dont look...behind me? ¨Russet, whats wrong? You look terrified...whats behind me?¨ his voice was unsure, quiet and searching for more detail.
