Doe nodded, slightly giggling. She was still much shorter than Jad, and most cats for that matter, but she had grown since they were last together. She now held scars of battle training, and her claws, much like her father's, were long and sharp.

Ember blinked. "She's dead?"

[Cradily]

"Like this!" Weaselkit flopped around on his belly. "You have to guess what I am!"

Jad made a face of disgust. "Noooo." He walked around in uneasy circles.

"I don't know," Mintheart admitted. "She disappeared a while ago. Peachtail, Jackdawflight, Steelpelt, and Meadowpaw left to find her."

[C a s]

Ember nodded, trying to remember of the names meant anything to her.

Doe shook her head. "Lets go. I bet you've worried Diamond."

[Dark Moon]

Fallowkit stared at him. "Um I don't know." She admitted. She watched him some more, her mind racing to try and find out what he was trying to act like.

[Cradily]

Weaselkit stopped all of a sudden. "Oh, that's right. You don't know what a fish is, do you?" He groaned and stood up. "This isn't any fun."

With the gentleness of a dove, Mintheart carried Ember into the medicine cat's den. She laid her in an empty nest that looked especially soft and continued to groom the exhausted she-cat's head.

"Diamond is asleep." Jad kept on circling. "Diamond could be not asleep anymore! Diamond could be worried!" He opened his mouth to wail in despair.

[Dark Moon]

Fallowkit blinked at him. "What is a fish? Can you show me one?"

[C a s]

"Jad!" Doe mewed. "Come, lets go see if he's awake."

Ember smiled. "Thank you, mom. I'll be ok, really."

[Cradily]

"Sure!" Weaselkit led her to the fresh-kill pile and pulled out a small, silvery-brown fish.

"Okaaaay," Jad whined. He half-ran, half-trudged back to his housefolk's home.

Mintheart froze when she heard that one word: "Mom." She remained silent for a long while, then started to cry.

[Dark Moon]

Fallowkit looked curiously at it and leaned down to sniff it, leaping back with a disgusted look. "It smells funny!" She complained, batting at it. When it didn't do anything, frowned. "What's wrong with it?"

[C a s]

Ember's eyes widened. "Woah, mom, what is it?! Did I say something?"

Doe followed after him, running. She loved the feeling of wind in her fur, her ears flat against her head.
