Sorry for late reply!)

Swiftheart cocked his head enquiringly.

Bravebird
Despite her growling stomach and thin frame (with each day passing, it seemed another rib was outlined) Bravebird bolted across the moorland, no emotion present within her gaze.

Redspeckle walked into Twilightstar's den, xe needed to talk with her about Laurelpaw and Beepaw, Laurelpaw had hurt Beepaw badly, and it wasn't okay to do that. Besides that, there were some other things that xe needed to discuss with Twilightstar, such as Barkpaw's death. A lot of things had happened recently, and after the gathering, xe needed to talk about that too. "Twilightstar, I have a few things to discuss with you, the first is about Laurelpaw and Beepaw"

Rabbiteye winced. "I needed to visit someone," he muttered, shoving down a pang of sorrow as he remembered the yellow fur. "Should I tell Fallownose now?" he asked, hoping the medicine cat would not ask any more questions.

Swiftheart nodded. "Cool."

"Go where?" Asked Swiftheart.

~ TWISTEDKIT OF WINDCLAN ~

Twistedkit nodded adamantly as Twilightstar talked about getting another queen to nurse her. Yay! She’d still be able to drink milk even though Mother couldn’t feed her! But… would they replace Mother? Twistedkit didn’t want Mother to be replaced. Her mother was Willowsky, and she didn’t want to throw that away. The thought made her a bit nervous, but then Twilightstar talked about having some friends in the nursery! The one-and-a-half-moon-old kit’s brain shifted gears completely, and excitement spread across her face. Her non-blind eye lit up as she thought of all the cool cats she’d met!

”Friends!” she squeaked; her dented, bulging tail-tip twitched erratically between her extremely small ears. ”Hickorypaw and Laurelpaw are friends! Cowpaw is a friend! But he’ll be taking care of Mother, so I won’t be able to stay with him.” Twistedkit was disappointed for a moment, but it didn’t last long. ”Oh! And that cool warrior… she caught an adder! She had black and white fur… Shattervenom!” Twistedkit was sad that she couldn’t stay in the nursery with Mother, but she had a lot of other cool friends, too! ”Wait. But… none of them have milk? How will I eat? Mother says my jaw is too broken to eat big-kit prey yet.” Twilightstar was super smart, but Twistedkit was confused. She tended to be confused on a lot. Like how getting nipped wasn’t normal.

They didn’t know how sick she was or what she was sick from. Twistedkit didn’t like the thought of being away from Mother for too long, but she had to do it if she would get better. Hmm… Mother was upset a lot, but only at Twistedkit. She never snapped at the other queens or kits. Did she have something that made her sick? Concern ran through the black-and-light-gray she-kit. Mother was always mad at her, so what if she had made her sick? Twistedkit suddenly felt awful and very sad.

”Did I make Mother sick?” Twistedkit’s distorted voice came out quiet. Suddenly, she felt like Twilightstar and/or Cowpaw would get super mad at her. For one so young, she had a lot of thoughts tumbling around her head. Twistedkit looked at her paws, feeling suddenly shameful and shy. ”Am I why she’s sick? She’s only mad at me, and not anyone else, so I had to have done something. And I was born weird… Mother always says I’m not normal. Is that why? Did my weird parts make her sick?” Twistedkit found it difficult to understand what she herself was saying, but it had to make sense, right? Why else would Mother hate her so much? Surely someone born weird who was hated so much had to be an issue? Twilightstar said no, but… could the super smart and also old leader be wrong? Twistedkit didn’t know. All these thoughts were scary and confusing, and she didn’t want to think about them; however, how could she not think about them?

Twilightstar’s next words seemed to confirm Twistedkit’s worst fears. The leader talked about her son, who used to get all sorts of things in her fur and who often cried. She couldn’t help feeling surprised. If she accidentally splashed milk on her mother, she’d be bitten and/or yelled at. And if she was too loud, Mother would yell at her to be quiet. Twilightstar had said a lot that mothers had to love their kits… Surely Mother loves me? I love her a lot. Twistedkit was confused, but she also wanted to defend the cat who had birthed her and raised her. ”Mother is a great cat. If she’s mad, there’s gotta be a good reason. Maybe it’s me? All I wanna do is make her happy.” Twistedkit wished she didn’t feel so sad and confused, but how could she not? The fact that a kit under the age of two moons was having these thoughts certainly said something.

See them? Twistedkit was confused, but when Twilightstar kept speaking, she remembered. Oh, right, Twilightstar’s kits! The she-kit brightened a bit, but her thoughts and questions did not leave her mind. Queen to nurse her… what about her friends? She was still confused on that. Cowpaw was gonna get Mother, and Twistedkit got to spend more time with Twilightstar. That was cool, but at the same time, she had a lot of confusing emotions right now. ”Before she goes, can I see her again?” Twistedkit asked, looking up at the leader with her small round eyes that, stretched out like they were, appeared bigger than normal. ”I wanna talk to her before you go. I want her to know that I really love her, and that I wanna do stuff to make her happy. Also, I… wanna know if I made her sick.” Twistedkit looked desperately at Twilightstar. She wanted to see Mother one more time, before they had to be taken away from each other.

Doepaw dropped the rabbits from her mouth into the pile. Twoleg kits had chased her from her and Batsong's patrol, and she was exhausted. She slinked off to bed, ready to pass out.
