Ravenpaw looked over at the squirrel and walked forward quietly.
She did her best to not make a sound. As she neared she saw the
squirrel twitch its tail. Once Ravenpaw was close enough she
pounced, barley managing to catch it in her claws. Before she made
the kill, the squirrel screamed, scaring off all other prey. "I
caught it" Ravenpaw said.
Silvermoon nodded to Froststar before she picked up the black kit
again and walked near Softsight, not wanting to bring the kit too
close to Berrypool to allow the birthing female some space.
"Softsight, I found a kit. Froststar told me to bring her to you"
she said.
Stormpelt nodded. "I will make them quickly" he said as he started
gathering feathers and the softest moss he could find.
Softsight's ears flattened against her head. "10 seconds?
Oh my, that's quite fast? You might just... Do you feel anything
other than contractions? A head, maybe?" She asked as calmly as
possible. She looked to Stormpelt and gasped lightly. "Oh god,
okay. Put her in a bed, please. One of the empty ones, I'll check
on her after Berrypool has her kits..."
Silvermoon nodded. "Do you want me to stay with her and keep her
out of the way" she asked before she picked up the kit and carried
her to an empty nest.
Silvermoon nodded as she placed the kit down. "Yes she is" she
replied as she curled up around the kit. The black kit kept close
to Silvermoon, grateful to the older cat for keeping her safe.
Softsight turned back to Berrypool. "Ok. Alright, I need
you to push. Not too hard, but not softly, alright? Can you do that
for me, Berrypool?" Her voice was soft and caring.
Ravenpaw smiled. "I do feel bad I didn't kill it quicker cause it
scared off the other prey" she said.
Silvermoon licked the kit and sighed. "You will need a name little
one" she said quietly. The black kit looked at Silvermoon. "My
momma called me Jay cause of my eyes" she replied in a squeaky
voice. Silvermoon couldn't help but smile. "Then we shall call you
Jaykit, until you become an apprentice" she said before she went
back to grooming the kit.
"It sounds like she's giving birth now!" yelled Clovertail. "We
need to get over there! Hurry!"
(K9SOCCER POST, also I'm going to be gone for like an hour I have
to go eat.)
Softsight adjusted in her place beside Berrypool, giving
soft encouragement to the queen. "You're doing amazing, dear.
Alright, last one, you got it. 1... 2... 3... Push!"
