Chapter Two
"Relax you three,MarshStar or one of our clan mates will find them."The pale grey she cat with dark ringlets around her paws an tail mewed."Relax?! Are you Really telling us to Relax JadeFlight."IceHeart hissed pushing her pure white muzzle into the deputy's face.Her pace icey blue eyes narrowed into tiny slits.BlazeWing let her claws slid out an worry the moss bed into small bits.Her yellow eyes scanned the camp and the enterance as her ears pricked back to the agruement.-Poor JadeFlight.-She though glancing back at the young deputy.The poor she cat had taken a step back as if the white queen would turn into a badger and eat her."Ye-Yes I am .Your upseting the rest of the Clan who mind you are already worried about your missing kit's."JadeFlight managed to mew.She had swallowed a growl that had rose up in the back of her throat.Turning on her paws ,JadeFlight stormed over to BlazeWing.Her jadegreen eyes flashing as she sat down hard next to her."I can't talk to her."She hissed bowing her head.
BlazeWing sighed an rested her tail on the deputy's back."IceHeart is just upset...Bloodkit is her only son and now his gone."She mewed softly flattening her ears.The kits had been in her watch and the second Jadeflight and eaglepaw had stepped away the kits had soon gone.The orange queen sighed an looked down.JadeFlight lifed her head as the russle of cats entering the camp reached her ears.MarshStar strolled through carring four voles and a mouse but no kit.But just as the light grey she cat was about to drop her gaze Hawkfire and TalonFleet paded in side by side .Each carring a tom.IceHeart was oput of the nursey as if bees had swarmed around her.Pelting to her mate an kit the white she cat purred .TalonFleet set Bloodkit down on the ground an the dark red tom placed a browish red paw on his son's tail, keeping him in place.IceHeart pushed her nose into the toms's shoulder her body shaking with emoistion.Before TalonFleet rested his head on his mate'she caught JadeFlight's eyes.In that moment she knew why everything she had said to the queens might had scared and angered them more.His Green eyes where alive with a feral light .
"It's alright.IceHeart.Sweetheart ,Bloodkit is safe.His home."TalonFleet mewed softly ,his muzzle an tiny mouse tail away from her white ear.His mate shook slightly as silent cries escaped her.Shaking his head TalonFleet licked his mats ear repeatedly in soft little strokes.IceHeart had finally calmed down and pulled back a little to look at TalonFleet."Thank you for finding him..."She mewed her voice threating to crack once mew.Bloodkit flattened himself to the ground.He never though that the clan or his mother for that point would go crazy that he was gone for a little bit.Glancing up he saw his mother's muzzle in his face with out a warning.
Her pale eyes where red rimmed but rage roared its ulgy head once more."Your lucky that they found you Bloodkit.What where you thinking...Mabey I'll tell MarshStar to cancell your appertince cermony for pulling this."She growled grabbing him toughly by the scruff.Bloodkit blinked.Cancell the ceremory.His aqua blue eyes glanced at his father. His expression must have show because TalonFleet smirked an shook his head."Mom..Mom please i'll never do it again.Just don't go to MarshStar." he wailed as him an his family marched into the nursey.
MarshStar noded to HawkFire to set Moonkit down on the ground.The rusty red Tiger tabby noded an lower her head an released the kit.Flicking her feathery tail the warrior stalked away muttering about crazy kits an not looking forward to being a mother .Glancing at his son,MarshStar flicked his tail for BlazeWing to come to them.A sigh escaped the queen and she walked over to her family.Her pur welled up as she licked Moonkit's head."Crazy tom."She murmured to her son before looking up at marshstar.Her yellow eyes hopefull.MarshStar gulped an dropped his eyes to his paws,his dark brown ears flicking back."No..We didn't find Sunkit or."He swallowed harder"Jaggedkit.Not yet any ways."MarshStar lifted his head an met yellow brimming with unshed tears.Turning her head away Blazewing let out a ragged breath."I know you're trying you best.."She mewed unevenly. Bloodkit flattened his ears an placed a paw on hers"Mom?"He asked softly .When he didn't get an answer he gentally nudged her with his head."Sunkit will always come back home.She'll bring jaggedkit home too."
BlazeWing fought to keep the tears at bay.She won't break down infront of the two tom's that mean the world to her.But it was getting harder an harder with moonkit being a gental tom.Worry an concern in his words.Letting asnother shakly breath out ,BlazeWing glanced down at the young tom."I hope so." she mewed trying to smile an failing.Before MarshStar could comfort her ,Blazewing bent down and grabbed moonkit dartting back into the den.The leader sighed an dropped his head.What was he going to do...The queens where upset from lossing the kits.-Expecillay BlazeWing.- he though glancing back at the nursey.She told him before the patrol that she had been watching the kits.So he knew she was blaming herself for not watching them close enough.
Shakinging his head MarshStar leapt up to the smaller stones an zig zagged his way up to the high rock"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the Highrock for a Clan meeting". He yowled his voice ringing loud an clear through out the camp.Cats from each den began to walk out an settle under the rock.Flicking his tail as Jadeflight broke away from the nursey an made her way to him.Her pale pelt moving swiftly through the sea of cats.Jumping on to the smaller rock the was a littl higiher off the ground ,Jadeflight looked up at him.
Clearin his throat ,Marshstar looked down at his clan an sighed."There is good news and bad news."He started"We have found Moonkit and Bloodkit and now their safely back in the nursey.."He mewed.Several cheers called up as cat seemed to glow with happyness." A pure silver tabby shake her head an reared up on her hind legs."But what about jaggedkit and sunkit?" Riverleap mewed letting herself fall back on all four legs.A murmurr ran through the crowad all asking the same thing.Waiting for the clan to quiet down Marshstar kneed the rock.His claws sharpening on the rock ."That's the bad news.... Those two are still out in the forest." he finshed closing his eyes.They where pushing the boarder patrol because of DarkClan.How much more stress could he force on to his clan.An appertince pusehd through the crowad grinning ,-Eaglepaw- Marshstar though looking down at the tom."Yes?"He aske tipping his head.Eaglepaw glanced around an cleared his throat a few time the young cat sat up tall."I believe I speak for the appertince when I say then wha are we waiting for?"He yowled.The younger cats cheered an purred calling out yeahs an lets go.Purring Marshatar look down at him."Well I'm not sure what we're waiting for. Lets go get the kits.JadeFlight...Get patrols of every cat and sent them out in different dircetions"With that MarshStar flicking his tail an jumped down heading to the cats below.
Sunkit felt like she was in the middle of a huge storm.As the fox tossed is head back an forth snapping at her,Sunkit clung on.-This might not have been my best idea.-She though for the hundred though.She didn't know why but the moment the fox had gone after jaggedkit she had felt a rage brake through her terror.Glaring into the other animal's eyes Sunkit bit down on its muzzle.She hadn't seen jaggedkit since she had lept on to the fox.As the fox let out a yelp it's paw with claws out came up an swatted her off its muzzle.Pain exploded through her as she flew through the air.Blinking rapidly as she landed on her paws ,she looked at the four scratches.-RobinFeather's gonna kill me.- she mused.Blood had started to well up on the cuts and a hiss sounded from the other side.Jaggedkit had lundged forward and clamped his jaw around the fox's back paw.Purring Sunkit dartting to its side and lept up once more.Her claws kind of digging into its back..Even though they where landing blows on it Sunkit knew that two kits would not even beable to chase this thing away.Shaking her head,Sunkit glanced down at the fightint tom an took a breath an let out a yowl of all yowls.Birds scattered from the branches.Though it startled the fox into shaking her an jaggedkit off.Once agains sunkit felt herself flying through the air.Only this time she didnt land as nicely as before.Hitting the ground on her right side ,she whimpered.The male fox snarled at jaggedkit before turning to her an stalking forward.Its semi rounded ears flatted against its skull.Blood dripped from its muzzle, back and hind leg.Jaggedkit hissed at it trying in vein to get its attention once more.Yellow green eyes stared over at her wid with worry an fear.Strangly sunkit stared calmly back at jaggedkit.her electric blue eyes fearless."i'll be ok." she mouthed trying to give him comfort even though it looked like she would join starclan before her life ever began.Pulling her gaze up she hissing at the fox her eyes slitting.
-I'll be ok....Is she serious?- he though shaking his head.There was no way he would be able to scramble over to help her in time.The multi-colored tom flatted his ears an growl still praying the fox would give heim at least a look so that she could run.But no the massive dog had cornered the golden she cat. Shaking his head once more he pushed up.His legs wobbling under him as jaggedkit staggered trying to reach her.-Please let the clan or someone hear us.- he though sending up another pray to star clan.
SilverBlaze lifted her head as she heard a feint snarls an snapps and a loud yowl.Shaking her head the pure silve she cat that looked like a phantom turned her light green eyes to BoulderClaw."I think their that way." she mewed flicking her tail up the stream .The dark grey tabby tom noded an took off his paws carrying him quickly to the fight.Silverblaze glanced down at the two appertince who fllattened their ear determination written in their body stand."Falconpaw ,Ripplepaw lets move."She mewed finally chasing after the tom.The white silver appertince darted right beside her.The she cats eyes bright.On her other side the grey blue tabby tom raced with her.Pulling to a stop she breathed in ,the scent of fox an the kits.Growling silverblaze leapt over the bush an on one side of the fox.BoulderClaw had placed himself inbetween the fox an sunkit.Already on his hind legs the tom had foced the dog back.His long claws scoring wicked marks in it muzzle.Desicding to protect jaggedkit in case the fox turned around to go after him SilverBlaze noded to the appertinces.
Falconpaw let out a shriek an slid under the russtle colored pelt an flipped onto her back.Getting a great view of its stomach ,she performed the belly rake.Crisome blood falling onto her cover.Letting out a short whimper the fox jumped back growling.Only had run into Ripplepaw.The tom had bit down on its tail an was pulling his head back.A frantic light had appered in the fox's eyes at more cats coming in.Flicking its tail the fox tryed to get the other tom off of its tail.But Ripplepaw just du ghis claws into the ground barely holding his ground.Blood had started to show from his claws as they threated to rip."Ripplepaw...Let it go."SilverBlaze yowled seeint the fox started to run away.The tom obeyed an collaped to the ground panted.As he shook his head ,ripplepaw looked up at falconpaw an spat out a mouth full of red orange fur."Thats bloody disgusting." he hissed .
Jaggedkit smiled an dipped his head.His clan mates had come just in time.The fox had just been about to take a bit from sunkit when Boulderclaw had leapt from the bush.It had taken the fox by surprize.Glancing over at sunkit,Jaggedkit blinked.-Was she hurt badly?-He hadnt seen her try to get up from the fall.Mabey she had broken a paw or a leg.Hissing in sypthly he looked up at sliverblaze an shriank back."The silver she was glaring at him like he was another fox."Do you know the worry you have caused the clan!!!!!!!!!!1"She growled cuffing him over the ear.Stars bloomed in his vision once more at the blow bowled him over.Scrambling away from the crazy she ,he went to sunkit.The other kit licked his ear softly her tongue a slightly rough warmth.Turning his head jaggedkit blinked woundering if star clan had come for him."Thank you.. jaggedkit you could have run an left me for the fox to kill."She mewed struggling to her paws.Pain flicked through her eyes as her first right paw touched the ground.Jagged kit flicked his ears back."I won't have left you."He mewed before BoulderClaw picked him up by the scruff.SilverBlaze rolled her eyes an very gentaly grabbed sunkit."MarshStar is going to have our fur..."She muttered through sunkit's fur."come on guys lets go."She whipped around an started back to the clan.
Falconpaw sighed her ears down.Boy where they ever going to get in trouble.One the kits had gotten hurt .Two they hadn't stoped it.Alreadty she could pitcure the leader's claws on her pelt.Shaking her head falconpaw let her mind wander back to eaglepaw as he stood up an told Marshstar what they had said lets night.Affection for the tom her come from her as she purred.Glancing over she looked at ripplepaw who was wincing with each step."Pulled to hard on my claw.... Just tender."He mewed looking at her with a grin.The cats headed back to the camp.As the leaves parted from to the tunnel Falcon paw sighed in relief.At least they had found the kits.Now all that was left was what would happen now that they where back.
