Great! Silver could be a first to notice ]
Minnowpounce slept soundly on the floor of the nursery, stretched out in her most comfortable position. Her kitting wasn't due for the next half moon, so she had no worries for the time being although she was always tired and never bothered to get food even when she needed it. Despite her soundless sleep, she felt a pang in her stomach and she shifted her weight unconsciously, trying to get comfortable. Another spasm erupted inside the queen and it startled her to the point where she was sitting up. Her heart thumped and she frantically glanced around but only to find that no one else was here with her. She let out a pained gasp as another spasm passed through her, she found herself on the ground; chest heaving with labored breaths. Her meow came out pitiful with distress. "Help---" She was cut off though by another spasm, causing black dots to appear in the cat's vision. Dear Starclan! These kits weren't due till another halfmoon! She dug her claws into the den floor.
Adderfang pricked his ears to a meow but merely thought it was an apprentice playing around. He didn't have time to fool around, he heaved himself to his paws lazily and padded into his den, beginning to sort herbs. He was far enough away from the nursery to not hear anything going on, especially because moss clouded sound.
[ Short but sweet ^-^ ]

(I'll only take one if no one else claims them. If none are claimed by anyone else, then I'll take either. Although, roleplaying as Alderkit would be interesting..)

Who wanted who? The names of the kits were going to be Sparrowkit (female) and Alderkit (male) . Alderkit would be the blind one and Sparrowkit would be the healthy one. ]

✎ Swiftcreek was guarding the camp when he heard the cry. He stood, trying to pinpoint where the cry came from. He began to trot, then jumped into a dash towards the medicine cat den. "Adderfang!" the tom tried to yell, not caring if he woke the camp. He reached the medicine cat den, heaving. "Adderfang, I think I heard a cry for help." he wheezed. He was alert and nervous. It had been a while since anyone kitted in the Clan. |

Adderfang stiffened to the sound of Silvercreek, he turned sharply causing some herbs to spill out. "Can you pinpoint it?" He perked an ear, listening intently before it occurred to the medicine cat. "Minnowpounce. She must be a half a moon early!" He hissed and scrambled to find herbs for the queen. "Go and calm her down, keep her breaths steady and make sure she doesn't writhe too much." He knew his orders might've came out a bit harsh but if Minnowpounce's kit were due now, it could mean a defect or stillborn. He quickened his pace, grabbing comfrey, poppy seeds, milkweed, and some borage weed. He clamped his jaws around them and sprinted towards the nursery, coming to a halt where she lay.

✎ "Minnowpounce!" the tom called as he neared the nursery. He peered in, spotting the queen on the ground. "Adderfang is coming. Hold on." He remembered Adderfang's instructions scooted close to her. "Breathe with me, calm and steady, okay?" He moved into a crouch, his claws unsheathed. He scraped the ground, trying to calm himself. He breathed slowly, and loudly, trying to urge the queen to breathe with him. Swiftcreek grew relieved when he saw Adderfang had hurried. "Need me to do anything?" he asked, making room for the medicine cat. He didn't want to leave, as Minnowpounce was the only queen, but he felt he should go fetch a she-cat. Certainly they'd be a better choice to help her than him, right? |

Minnowpounce looked up with pain filled eyes, trying to understand the words that pooled around her. She tried to relax, focusing on each breath as Silvercreek tried his best to calm her, it was a relief to see a friend and not the worried gaze of Adderfang all of the time. She whimpered softly as another spasm pushed through her causing the queen to shut her eyes tightly as the pain passed. She was tempted to curl up in a ball and try and escape the pain but she couldn't move, at least not for now. She felt Adderfang's paw force her jaws open and squeeze some herbs into her mouth. She mumbled a thank you and swallowed, glancing up at Silvercreek as another spasm passed. "How much more of this?" She couldn't tell how long this had been going on, but it seemed like hours.
Adderfang cursed lowly to himself and forced the herbs into her mouth before beginning to run his tail along her spine in attempt to soothe her. It was always awkward to him while helping queen's birth, it just didn't seem natural but SIlvercreek did seem fine with it. He stopped stroking her as he noticed the queen's breathes becoming more labored and her spasms closer by the second. "She's only a few minutes away from kitting. Just give it a moment and she'll have healthy kits." Or I hope... He noticed Minnowpounce had her eyes shut and her head resting beside Silvercreek's paws, her voice coming out in pitiful mews.

[ ✎ I appreciate that.] ✎ Swiftcreek pressed against her gently. He tried to hide his fear scent. "They'll be here soon. Just hold on." He looked up at Adderfang, unable to read the medicine cat's expression. "He said she's half a moon early, I think. This must be bad." the speckled tom whispered to Minnowpounce about how her kits would be beautiful and that their father would be proud. He went on about how her daughters would be like her, soft and determined. He wished he could ease her pain, but he didn't envy her. |

Minnowpounce flicked his ears nervously as she listened to the soft whispers of Silvercreek and the labored breaths coming from her. She opened her eyes, turning her head to gaze back at Adderfang as another spasm rolled over the feline although this time it was different; she felt a kit start to crown and pushed again, resting her tail on a small wet bundle. She whimpered as another spasm passed, this time feeling another one come out. Her paws itched with with excitement as she waited to meet her kits although she was too weak to move. She barely had enough strength to whimper when the third one came, instead she muffled a groan and fought every urge to sleep. She curled her tail around the now writhing kits only to feel a pitt in her stomach. "Something's not right." She rasped lightly, horror touching her tone as she quickly sat up to prod a she-cat who lay un-moving in a heap in a pile of bedding. She stepped back, alarmed. "She's dead." Her voice was hollow as regret and dismal taste laced her voice, she realized then that she still had two more kits. A healthy female and a supposedly healthy male. She nosed both of them to her chest, letting herself sink down in the nest. Starclan help me. She murmured, gazing at her kits with wonder, oblivious to the tom's misty gaze.
Adderfang stroked her back gently with his tail as he noticed one of the kit's crowning. His paws itched with excitement and he could sense it in Minnowpounce too. As the bundle slid out, he helped get the slick sack off and waited for the next one. The fur clung to his paws from the wetness as he delivered the final one, realizing something was wrong. He noticed the queen's horrified expression once she had sat up and stopped stroking her. "I'm sorry Minnowpounce. She didn't make it." He shook his head softly, glancing at Silvercreek. "You have two healthy kits that you should be proud of though." He murmured, trying to sound hopeful although it looked as if Minnowpounce hadn't heard him as she laid back down, chest heaving with the final labored breaths until they returned to normal. He nodded to Silvercreek before pushing some herbs towards him. "If she has any pain, come see me but those seeds are for if she has any minor pains." With that, the tom left to go clean up.

✎ He nodded, not looking up at the medicine cat. Once he left, Swiftcreek stood. He peered over the queen, looking at the kits. He felt horrified at the news of the third she-cat. Her silhouette stood out and he had no words to say about her. He didn't want to go back to his duties and would rather be scolded by Squirrelstar until she found something to ramble on about. He wanted to stay with Minnowpounce and offer support. "I wonder if she's with Mossclaw right now." He shut his eyes, then opened to look at the exhausted queen. "I can stay by the entrance if you want company. That way I can know right away if something is wrong." he mewed quietly to her, trying to prevent his voice from cracking. It was his first official kitting he attended and they weren't even his. He felt sorrow for her, as no one should experience another loss so soon like her. |

Minnowpounce lifted her head, pulling the kit's closer with her tail, giving them each a gentle lick on the head. "I'm sure she's already been accepted." My little un-named kitten... She purred softly to herself, and gave the still warm body of the dead kit a gentle lick before pulling the limp close to her body along with the other kits. "I can tell your unsettled by the situation Swiftcreek." She murmured softly, opening her eyes. "And you're a great friend to stay despite the discomfort but your welcome to leave anytime." She noticed slight sorrow lacing his voice and she forced a light purr. "I'll be alright, I'm just a bit tired." She lifted her head, gazing back at the two living kits against her stomach. "Alderkit and Sparrowkit." She purred softly, resting her head on her paws with tired sighs. She still hadn't come to realize that one of her kits had something wrong, she was almost too tired to say anything. |

✎ Swiftcreek awoke to the chill of the morning. He was cramped by the entrance of the nursery and had fallen asleep. He stretched and gave a massive yawn before turning to Minnowpounce. He noted the untouched herbs and felt his stomach rumble. The tom padded down the rocky path to the Rockpile. "I didn't stay on guard." he mentally scolded himself. He decided he would make it up later by adding a few extra pieces of prey and maybe standing vigil tonight as well. Out of the small pile, he picked a vole and shrew. He carried them in his jaw. They were already slightly cold, but he didn't mind and hoped Minnowpounce wouldn't, either. [ ✎ Going to poof for a sec.] |

Minnowpounce slept soundly as a gentle breeze that had entered the nursery and sent a chill up her spine. Suddenly Alderkit sneezed, and Minnowpounce was jolted awake, barely registering what had happened the night before. I have kits? I have kits! She purred softly, lifting her head in a tired yawn to the sound of Swiftcrerk approaching. "It was kind of you to stay all night. But did you get any sleep?" Scanning his facial expression, she sat up, gently moving Sparrrowkit over to her brother. The light filtered through the den entrance creating a yellow aura around the tom. It really was a magnificent site and Minnowponce wanted to say something but she kept her jaw tight; whiskers twitching.

✎ Setting the two pieces of prey down, Swiftcreek grunted in aggravation. "I shouldn't have, but I fell asleep. I'm surprised no one else came over in the night. Maybe everyone wanted to give you some rest." he mewed. He nudged his choices from the pile towards her, then eyed the two kits at Minnowpounce's belly. "I brought you something to eat. I'm sure you're all hungry." He hadn't noticed any of her motions, instead feeling awkward around the three again. "I overheard you mumbling something to them last night. I only caught part of it. It's Alderkit and what is the other's name?" Swiftcreek inquired, settling on the floor perpendicular to her. The tom wanted to insure they all had enough room. |

Sparrowkit wriggled against her brothers side as Minnowpounce sat up, causing Alderkit to sneeze beside her. She pawed her brothers nose, relying on touch because she had yet to open her eyes. A meal of protest erupted from her and she clumsily tripped over her own tail, only to be gently lifted to her paws by Minnowpounce. She thought quietly to herself. I wonder when I'll get to see the world! She emitted a soft purr, as big of one that's he could muster.

Minnowpounce let her tail drift softly over he kits, giving a soft purr in response to the toms obvious awkwardness. "I'm sure the clan will welcome them." Her purr faded and she bent down to lick Sparrowkit who was now awake on her head. My sweet kits... She let her gaze drift back up to Swiftcreek. "Her name is Sparrowkit." She responded softly. "What do you think?" Gazing at him expectantly, she ran a paw over her ear tips. She eyed the prey, noticing how her stomach growled but she felt as if she were to eat, she would just throw it back up. She hesitated but finally nodded, "Thanks." She mumbled embarrassing and reached a paw out, hooking the mouse to pull it closer.

(can i have a description as to what he looks like?? and how would minnow find out hes blind? uwu just curious)
A soft mewl came from the newborn kit, his small paws stretching and pressing into his sister, Sparrowkit's, side. He let out another soft noise, squirming against the two she-cats beside him, almost as if searching for a source of warmth to rid himself of the cold. He didn't make much noise after he had pressed close to his mother, instead keeping rather still and relaxed, his nose and whiskers twitching as he tried to sniff the air.

✎ A purr roared in his throat. "They're both lovely names." Swiftcreek responded. He noticed her hesitation, ears falling flat. "It must have been harder on her than I thought." he brooded. "Eat slowly if you must." The warriors didn't want to sound commanding, but after he spoke, he noted his voice sounded harsh. He looked away, eyeing the moss. His eyes moved towards the kits when he saw movement from the corner of his eye. He watched them, reflecting on last night. |

Minnowpounce flicked her tail, biting into the soft flesh. She eyed him with curiosity, flinching slightly at his tone. "I told you, you didn't have to stay last night." She couldn't tell whether or not the tom had wanted to stay, he had mixed expressions towards her in terms of last night. "You just seemed troubled last night and you still are." She paused, running a paw back over her ear tips. "Did it bother you? The kitting?" She let out a mrrow of amusement, her eyes sparkling as she gazed down at Sparrowkit and Alderkit.
She noticed something new about them, they were suddenly so energetic even without opening their eyes yet. Her gaze rested on Alderkit especially, his strong broad figure of a kit didn't seem like it could be changed so easily.
Sparrowkit gave a quiet mewl as a result of Alderkit stepped over her tail. Fussing slightly, her small tendrils of kitten fur were spiked and her ears were flat against her head. Oh... She beamed with excitement inwardly as she had found her way over to a familiar cat, Minnowpounce. She wasted no time, pawing at her side gingerly as she heard two voices that seemed un-familiar to her.

Crowpaw stopped in his tracks. His head swung in Crookedpaw's direction,
completely oblivious to the small blue tom's nervousness. "You speak?!" he
exclaimed, his mouth gaped open in astonishment.
The black tom had never been good at listening.

Rainpaw suppressed a sigh. Being born only two moons after, he had
known Crowpaw his whole life, and knew his obliviousness and
impulsiveness all too well. I shouldn't judge or be close minded. He
scolded himself, coming to the conclusion that Crowpaw might be better
than he seems, and that the black tom was still young. Rainpaw would
give him plenty more chances.
