Chapt 14

"I can't do this anymore!" Dovepelt's voice rang out in the clearing. She had given birth to 3 healthy kits, and Jayfeather said she still had 3 more!
"Yes you can. Foxleap is here, helping you and the kits." Jayfeather mewed encouragingly.
"How is she?" Lionblazes head popped into the nursery.
"She still has atleast 3 more coming, and she needs water, go get some now!" Jayfeather mewed back.He turned back to Dovepelt,"Okay, I'm going to need you to push... Now!" A spasm gripped her body and she pushed with all her might. A slippery bundle slid out onto the bedding and Jayfeather nipped the sack and pushed the kit towards Willowshine to lick.
"Good. Now push again." Willowshine mewed. Dovepelt pushed again and another bundle came onto the grass.
"Your doing great, Foxleap would be proud." Bramblestar's voice made Dovepelt turned to see him pad into the nursery.
"Aah!" Another jolt of pain ran down her body. "Thanks." Was all she could say with clenched teeth.
"Just one more push," Jayfeather murmurmed. A fresh wave of pain slid down her sides as she pushed.
"Congratulations, you have 6 healthy kits." Willowshine's eyes glowed.
"What will you name them?" Squirrelflight asked. She had given birth to 2 kits the day before.
"I'll name the red kit, Foxkit. The white fluffy she-cat will be Snowkit, and the smallest one is Stonekit." She paused to think about the last three names, " The tortoiseshell she-cat will be Honeykit, the white tom with the black tipped tail is Hedgekit. The blue gray she-cat is Duskkit."
Dovepelt was overjoyed with her kits. The whole camp seemed to be in a flutter.8 new kits born in the past 2 days, with more on the way with Cinderheart in the nursery. The other clans had adjusted to the Thunderclan camp.
"Will I have enough milk?" Dovepelt asked Jayfeather.
"You should, you ate a lot of borage before your kitting, but you should eat more. Willowshine, can you get me borage from my stores?" Jayfeather turned to the Riverclan medicine cat.
"Of course," Willowshine walked out of the nursery.
"When can they play?" Twigkit tottered over to Dovepelt.
"Not for awhile," Whitewing replied, padding over to where Dovepelt was lieing down,"They're beautiful. They'll make great warriors one day."
"Thanks," Dovepelt said, stiffling a yawn.
"You should sleep, you had a long kitting." Jayfeather mewed.
Dovepelt felt her eyes closing and sunk off into a dream.

"Dovepelt, Dovepelt open your eyes," a familiar voice murmured.
"It can't be time to wake up," Dovepelt mewed, opening her eyes. The cat she saw laying beside her was a reddish brown tom with stars in his pelt.
"Foxleap! Oh, Foxleap I missed you so much! Did you see our kits?" Dovepelt felt overjoyed looking at her mate again.
"Yes, I've seen them. They're the most beautiful kits, Dovepelt I wish I could meet them. But this is not why I have come," Foxleap got up gestured with his tail that she should follow. He jumped through some  heather and Starclan's camp opened up. Starry cats touched noses with each other.
"The prophecy is not over yet," Foxleap mewed stopping infront of a gray she-cat with a pushed in face.
"Yellowfang, Dovepelt is here." He mewed to the she-cat.She got up and walked over to Foxleap and Dovepelt."As i said before, the prophecy is not over yet." Foxleap repeated.
"What do you mean, shouldn't you be sending this message to Jayfeather?" Dovepelt was shocked to be sent such an important message from Starclan. Foxleap looked hurt," Not that I'm not greatful, but I don't understand." She explained.
"The Dark Forest is going to strike again sooner than you think, the clans must be ready. Train all cats more and more or all will be lost. The Dark Forest is not as strong as the first attack but they outnumber the clans. Train elders and kits. Tell your leaders as soon as you wake up. Starclan will help you," Yellowfang explained quickly.
"There will be five who will bring the 4 to1." Foxleap's voice wrang in her ears as the Starclan cats faded away.
