Lionclaw raced from the warrior den, and to the nursery, his heart pounding. He stood at the entrance, careful not to get in the medicine cats' way as he watched his mate give birth.
Fireflower ran, her belly swaying, and ducked into the nursery, and past Lionclaw. She came in, and stood at Icesong's side. "Stay calm." She advised Nightfeather, and Icesong both. She waited a moment, then looked at Nightfeather. "She'll need some chamomile to calm her nerves, and after she gives birth, some juniper berries. She may need more, but we'll have to see what happens." She mewed, and began to lick Icesong's head, to soothe her.
