Cherryflight yawned as the first light of dawn lit the sky. She heard pawsteps and turned, seeing Canyonjumper padding towards them,"You guys may go sleep now." she smiled as Robinflight, Rainstorm and Arrowstreak dashed into the warriors den. Tawnyleaf leaned against her shoulder, purring. "Fairstep and Bramblefrost are proud..." she closed her eyes, then opened them and walked into the warriors den. Cherryflight rolled her eyes at Tawnyleafs comment, but felt proud of herself, too. She got up and saw Frozengaze glaring at her from across the clearing. She glared back, her green eyes a lit with flames. She didn't know why he hated her, and she didn't like it. "You two! The two she-cats. Over here!" a voice came and Cherryflight jerked her head and padded over to Blondefeather, feeling confused. Frozengaze looked at Blondefeather, looking confused too. "Yes you, block head." Blondefeather growled and the black and white tom padded over, his face twisted in either anger or fear, Cherryflight couldn't decide. "You two will go on a patrol. And you will LIKE IT." Blondefeather narrowed her deep chocolate brown eyes. "Fine." Cherryflight muttered. "Why!? She has to sleep! Why can't I go with........ Thistleleaf?" "Because she's half a moon from kitting... your kits. Just go, mouse-brain." Blondefeather held her head high. Frozengaze curled his lip in a snarl, and Cherryflight scowled, but lead the way. "Since I'm the senior warrior here, I'll lead." Frozengaze shoved Cherryflight back. "Blondefeather told ME to lead!" Cherryflight snarled and leapt over Frozengaze, kicking his face hard. Frozengaze spat and shook his head,"Fine, brat." he growled and allowed Cherryflight to stay in the lead. Cherryflight padded, tail high, towards the RavenClan border, hearing a shrill squeal. As it got louder, she began to run, her heart pounding. 'Her first fight as a warrior!'. The thought ran through her mind and she went faster, hearing Frozengaze puffing behind her, cumbersome as a pregnant badger. She smirked and picked up speed. Her eyes widened when she heard a snarl... not a cat snarl but... a FOX snarl. She realized the shrill squeal was from a kit! She let out a yowl, not looking at the kit, and latched herself on the fox. She snarled as it thrashed, and dug her sharp claws into it's fur and skin. It thrashed harder, snarling, and Cherryflight felt panic rising in her chest. What of she fell off, hit the Thunderpath and choked on it's stench, and the fox got her? Suddenly the fox stopped moving, and let out a squeal. She let go, ripping her claws down and out to give extra damage, and saw Frozengaze clawing the fox's muzzle with steady, powerful blows. The fox reared, and Cherryflight hissed, rearing as well. Seeing it was outnumbered and outpowered, it fell back on it's paws, turned and ran. Cherryflight dashed over to the kit and sniffed it. It squealed and struggled away from her,"Get away, LightningClan cat." it growled and Cherryflight flinched. "Fine!" she snarled at it and felt a hard cuff over her ears, making her fall back. Frozengaze suddenly stood up tall, his head high and his body frozen. "RavenClan are coming to reclaim their kit!" Frozengaze hissed and dashed away, leaving Cherryflight alone with the screaming kit. "Frozengaze!" she whispered, scrambled to her paws and ran just as the RavenClan patrol burst out of the bushes. She ran fast, her heart pounding. She skidded to a halt outside the thorn tunnel leading into camp, and let herself calm down, then she padded in.

Cherryflight felt wind blow her fur and she saw a white shape running towards her. She leapt up and turned to run, but her paws wouldnt move. She opened her mouth to yowl, but nothing came out. The cat passed right through her, and she glimpsed the familiar white fur of her SkyClan friend, Moonshine. She gasped and woke up, her heart pounding. She looked around, seeing her home forest. She leapt up, 'Im in the forest!?' she thought, confused. A cold breeze swept through the empty forest. She heard her name being called, and whirled around. "Moonshine?" she called, and a white shape heading towards her, three tiny bundles in it's jaws. A SkyClan scent drifted towards her, and Moonshine appeared out of the mist. Snow showered down, and Moonshine dropped her kits at Cherryflights paws, and let out a pained cough,"Please, Cherryflight. Please take them. I-I'm sick... and I might die. If I die, they die..." a cough racked her slender body and she nosed the smallest, a pretty silver and black tabby she-cat, towards her. Before Cherryflight opened her mouth to ask what their names are, but Moonshine beat her too it,"Sidekit is the silver and black tabby she-cat, Viperkit is the dark ginger tom, and Twilightkit is the yellow and blue tabby." Moonshine licked each kits head,"Goodbye, my precious kits..." "Goodbye, Moonshine. I'll take good care of them..." Moonshine nodded, turned and ran. Sidekit let out a squeal and Cherryflight picked them all up. She hoped the clan would think they were HER and Robinflights kits, since she managed to convince them she was going to have kits. Timeflare knows about this, but only her. No one else knows. Not even her mate. She padded back to camp, pretending to look tired and worn, as everyone rushed over to her and lead her to the nursery.
