The Kits are Missing!

[Featherstar]

Snowbird woke slowly. Blinking groggily, her paw went to her head - StarClan, it hurt! - and came down again. Why was she bleeding? Suddenly what happened last night came rushing back to her.

She ran out of her den. " Bloodclaw! Bloodclaw was here!" Snowbird cried. "He took the kits! He took Amberkit and Smoulderkit!"

[Broken Whitepaw]

Rainwhisker skidded to a halt infront of Snowbird."Whad ya mean he was here?"She snapped,still a bit cranky form waking up."HOw could he have gotten them?I knew we should have put someone on watch last night!"Rainwishker pounded the ground with her paw angrilly,hissing in fury.

[Featherstar]

"I-I woke up last night and he was here, with Amberkit in his mouth. Before I could do anything, though, another cat came and hit me from behind." Snowbird replied nervously.

[Whiteflash]

Rainwhisker looked up from her rage,eyes blazing."We have GOT to get them back!"She turned for a moment,before starting to pace again."I`ll go and look.Maybe you could come?No,rouse too much suspition.I dont want the whole camp to know about this,alright?We`ve already lost Crystaleye,we really dont need to lose her kits!"The outraged deputy stopped,almost touching noses with Snowbird.Her strange claws hooked herself into the earth,and sat down."Oooo,Snowbird....What am I to do?I`m deputy and havnt got a clue what Bloodclaw is up to!I mean,is he going to come back and attack us,turn Amberkit and Smoulderkit against us?Starclan forbid,"

[Featherstar]

"We should probably tell Morningstar first." Snowbird said, leaning back slightly from the looming deputy. "Y-you go get her while I clean myself up. And you're not s-supposed to know what Bloodclaw's p-planning, deputy or no. I don't." Even as she spoke, though, the scene Heronfrost showed her re-played in the back of her mind. How am I supposed to help my Clan this way?

[Whiteflash]

Rainwhisker took a deep breath,steadied herself,and nodded."Right.Right,you better clean that up.Go get yourself something to eat or something.I`ll go get Monringstar,yeah,yeah,"She turned,her tail still flicking.

[Featherstar]

Snowbird sighed in slight relief and hurried to wash her head in the river. It didn't feel like a bad cut - the real purpose of the blow must have been to knock her out. She made herself a small poultice and went back outside.

[Whiteflash]

Rainwhisker hurried to her leader,her expression determindly blank.She burst trhough into her leaders den,mumbling somthing about being sorry and begining to speak."Morningstar,Bloodstar stole the kits!"She hisse dunder her breath,looking around anxiously.

Silentstorm pricked her ears. She heard it and gasped.
