She nodded at Pikestar's input, and left father and daughter in order to call for the medicine cat apprentice.
--

"Stonepaw?" She called softly for the apprentice. "Could you spare a couple minutes? Silversnow brought three orphaned kits into camp. They were out in the cold, but we've put them in the nursery for the time being."

Silversnow calmed just slightly as Lilycreek laid her tail over her, and spoke. She had to be calm, for the kits. She knew that much. She looked to her dad, who was always so strong,
but he seemed so, so distant. She took a breath, as to not worry herself more. The kits would be-

Broken.

"He.. his... what?" She had heard what Lilycreek said, but it didn't quite register with her for a few moments. She felt her heart race, and she worried that it might explode. Fawnlight and Stonepaw. Lilycreek was getting them. She stood, moving closer to her dad. Her fur was standing on end as she gazed at the little bundles. "I don't know what to do, Dad. I made them a promise, to keep them safe. Is this what have kids feels like? Being powerless to help when they're in danger?" She knew her dad would have an answer; he always did. He was the one cat she truly felt safest around. She sniffled, looking at the kits.

"I want to raise them, but I'm scared. I don't want to hurt them. I don't want to see them get hurt." She let out a soft huff, a sad huff. She didn't know what to do. "I named them Cherrykit, Deerkit and Shellkit. Deerkit is the tom, Cherrykit is the fluffy calico and Shellkit is the little tortie."

Featherspirit laid there cleaning her kits feeling kinda lonely today as they was wiggling about but she smiled down at all them.

PIKESTAR

After a moment of sitting there in utter disbelief, feeling sick to his stomach due to things he didn’t want to talk about, the lanky RiverClan leader looked over at Silversnow once she asked him if this was what it was like to have kids. “...Yes.” Pikestar quietly answered, then swung his head around towards the clan's nursery entrance, “But it’s better to try than to do nothing at all to keep your children safe. Stay here, I'll be back shortly.” He wished he could’ve said more to her in such a scary moment, but there was something that he needed to correct before it was too late. Swiftly, the dark-furred tomcat stood up and left the den, trailing after Lilycreek who was still looking around for Stonepaw. “We should get Fawnlight as well. Stonepaw is still young, and learning how to handle these things. We should probably have someone with more experience alongside him in this whole check-up, I'm sorry for the confusion.” As much as he feared bothering the dappled she-cat with this matter, they knew now that it was right thing to do after putting some more thought into it. "Fawnlight! Stonepaw! We need you two here, please!" The mighty Lord of the Waters called out into the clearing, hoping that either of them were in camp right now. What had he been thinking? Allowing Stonepaw to handle this alone? A foolish choice now corrected hopefully.

★ DEERKIT ★

The small tabby kitten squirmed and wriggled around his siblings. He let out a cry for his mother. Many new scents overwhelmed him and he buried his nose in his sibling's side to try and block them out. His closed ears could only pick up muffled sounds but there were so many. So many new smells and sounds flooded his senses. Deerkit meowed a distressed call, wanting only the comforting and warm scent of his mother to soothe him.

Deerkit's kinked tail only made him more uncomfortable as he shifted around his littermates. The pain had gone down by now but there was still a nagging ache. Where was his mother when he needed her most?

Cherrykit [she/her]
_____________________

The tiny calico wriggled around, confused. Where had her mother gone? She felt overwhelmed; too many weird, new smells, and definitely way too loud. Her brother's cry was slightly reassuring, reminding her that she wasn't alone. She continued to squirm, looking for her mother.

Who were these cats, talking loudly around her and her siblings? They were not her mother, and that was the only cat she wanted right now. She was hungry, and though being squished next to her siblings provided some warmth, she was cold. She let out a cry, reminding the others that she was there, in case they had forgotten, and she was hungry! However this didn't seem to do much. She buried her face in the fur of her sibling.

"Sure you were, and probably off almost dying too huh?"
Elkkit bit back, figuratively, though against very little. He blatantly ignored the brief flash of hurt that had come across Firekit's face, no wanting to give in to temptation. She abandoned them, she made a choice.
"We don't need a dad we've got mom.."
Pissed, Elkkit muttered those few words as he sat down, naturally looking broody and glum. Still, his ear gave a light twitch hearing his sister mention she was taught something by some stranger - the idiot, it could've been dangerous! But Elkkit would lie if he said he wasn't curious. His defences were up, but if Firekit tried to get closer again he wouldn't budge again, letting her invade his personal space which is when he grumbled his little question:
"...Taught what?"
As if he cared. He did - he was curious.

[Pondkit] 1/10

Pondkit squirmed next to her mother, breathing in the familiar milk-scent from her. Their eyes were almost ready to open at this point, but not quite there. Man, was she trying though! The calico she-kit mewed a couple times, merely seeking the familiar licks from her mother.
