Loud grumblings were heard from outside the Windclan camp, and heavy stomping. Soundless paws trailed after it, and a bit quicker. "MOVE!" Dark Princess yowled as she quickly padded towards the Nursery. She was having birth, and couldn't wait much longer. "Oh hi Jadefire. GET SNOWPELT!!!!!" Dark Princess settled down quickly and her breath rose and fell. Quickly one little head popped out, then before she knew it, 6 were sitting there. She quickly licked them all, but 3 of them weren't breathing. "Still-borns" Dark Princess softly whispered to her mate, Snake, and also the father. The other 3 kits crawled over to their mum to drink. "Beautiful, eh?"
One was a pure snowshoe, a lot like Snake. It was a female.
There was a male, it was a cream ish color, and it was huge like Dark Princess.
The third was also a female, but this time, it had a short tail, and was a tortie.
OOC:Alright, the black one is a Snowshoe. The male is like DP, and the third one is a tortie Bobtail.

OOC: Right!
Snake padded into the nursery. He couldn't believe it- a father! "Breath-taking, I know." Snake jumped as an unexpected voice came from behind him. Slowly turning around, he saw just who he thought he would. "Hawkfire." He meoewed curtly. "Snake." The other replied back. There was a yowl, and Snake whirled around to see the first kit born. It was a Snowshoe, just like him, only different patterns (naturally, as all snowshoes are different). An undecribeable feeling washed over the former rouge. It was alien to him; forein. Yet... somehow... Strangley welcome. As if all the butterflys in his stomach he had before were flapping so hard, they lifted him off the ground! But he wasn't off of the ground; not physically atleast. When all the kits were born and suckling, he managed to slowly pad over, one step at a time. He came in front of his mate, and looked down at the helpless bundles. Then, Hawkfire felt a strange vibration in his chest; but not from his chest. What was it? With a shock- Hawkfire realized it was coming from Snake! A pur, so deep and reverberating, it could be felt all across the clearing. Bending down, he sniffed, licked, and whispered to each tiny kit; checking to make sure they were alright. Then he turned his attention to the still-borns. He padded over to one- a snowshoe tom. It looked exactly like Snake. It could've been his mirror image- his son, they all could've lived! Of course, he blamed himself for their deaths. But then, he turned his attention back to the three other kits, the ones that survived. Nosing the female that looked like him, he purred again, but quieter, so not to disturb her, and meowed, "Nettlekit."
OOC: Is Nettlekit okay?

OOC:yup! I have DP's weird ways to name them...Can I?
Dark Princess mrrowed softly as she realized Snake really loved that he had one mirror image. The one with the extremely short tail did not fit in. She looked like a pure-bred kittypet. "She doesn't fit in..." She softly meowed to Snake.
As the cream one was named,Dark Princess realized some were born with names, and others were not. The short-tailed one really made her think of her bloody past, and the name seemed to whisper to her, and no one else.
"Flowerkit" She quietly said. Two kits down, one to go. Turning to the only male, he seemed a total mix of Dark Princess & Snake. His breed was of Dark Princess, but his coloring was more Snake, but not quite. Mingled with a few black patches too. The name came in a much more gruffer whisper,but it still came. "Creamkit"
So those were to be their names, Nettlekit, Flowerkit and Creamkit.
Dark Princess looked at Snake, and a loud sound came from her throat. A purr, was it. "Great names...Snake, will you do the honors, along with a few of the elders, to bury the still-borns...I have to take care of the younglings" She carefully looked at the still-borns. One was almost identical to Flowerkit, except different patterings.
OOC:I'll think of personalitys and hopefully post them up today, or tommorow...

Nodding, he padded over to the still-borns, and looked down at the snowshoe kit. He nudged it, as if hoping to somehow bring it back, but it was no use. Hawkfire padded over to his old friend. "I'm sorry Snake, but these things happen." He put his tail on Snake's shoulder. Snake nodded, and he bent over to carry his little mirror image. Hawkfire picked up one too. Nodding, they carried their sad bundles out of camp (snake taking two), and burried them. Putting some heather flowers on the burrial site, they padded back to camp.

Dark Princess spotted Snake as he came back. She gave a quick yowl and started to speak again. "What's gonna happen after this? Became clan cats, I guess? The young ones will most likely want to stay..." She sighed deeply.

Snake looked at Hawkfire, then back at Dark Princess. "You know. I think there are worse things to loose than your independance." He said at last.

Jadefire raised her head, and gave a soft mrrow as the stillborns were carried out. It would be a tragedy to any mother, though Dark Princess still had three other kits to care for. She padded over, Foxkit following. " It's almost like a welcome-back present... " Jadefire meowed, her eyes soft as she looked at the kits. Foxkit examined them each. " They look very healthy, Dark Princess... I'm sure your proud... Your milk may be short from your long trek... So I will fetch you some borage... I should find new plants, the supplies we have is dry... I could get you some poppy seeds or bramble twigs to help you sleep... Though I'm sure you're already tired... They will also calm and soothe you... " With that, she ran off to the medicine cat's den. Jadefire stared after her daughter, her gaze was amused, yet incredibly proud. Foxkit trotted back to the Nursery with a leaf bundle held tightly in her jaws. She layed the bundle in front of Dark Princess. Inside were green borage leaves, poppy seed, and bramble twigs. She chewed up the borage, slipping her tongue out like a lizard to make sure she didn't swallow any. Foxkit then spit it out on her paw, and placed it in Dark Princess's mouth. She hadn't even realized she was taking control, and doing Snowpelt's job. Then, she chewed the bramble twigs into a fine syrup, and made sure Dark Princess ate it. Finally, she had Dark Princess take the poppy seeds she'd brought. Foxkit looked around, quite satisfied. Jadefire licked the top of her head, and gazed at her with love in her eyes.

Dark Princess purred at the young kit acted as the med. cat. "You have a fine med. cat here, Jadefire" With that, she fell asleep,the kits curled around her also asleep.

Foxkit didn't hear what Dark Princess had said. She looked around the Nursery, nodding, quite satisfied with the results. She padded back to the nest, groaning softly as Sunkit awoke. She looked back at her mother. " No one's getting any sleep around here when they're awake..." She meowed, flicking her tail. Jadefire nodded, and curled up around her kits. They were almost six moons old, and she was eager to see their futures.
