The Kits

The Fight Between Mothers (Chapter 2)

Bluefang woke up with her kits gone. She smelt the faint scent of a Riverclan warrior. Nightstep's kit was also with Bluefang's kits. If there really was a Riverclan warrior then Blackkit, Cinderkit, and Brightkit would already be dead by now. Bluefang wouldn't have it. She HAD to find the kits. If she didn't find her kits then she would hate herself for it. Thrushclaw would also hate her for it. Bluefang didn't want that. So she set off into the forest to find her kits.

~~ Time Skip (sunhigh/noon) ~~

Its almost sunhigh (noon) when Bluefang finally finds her kits. They were hiding behind a tree. Blackkit and Cinderkit were cowering behind Brightkit from a Frostclan warrior. Bluefang could tell that Brightkit would become a warrior just like her mother, but that didn't matter now! She had to save the kits. Bluefang stood protectively in front of the kits. She unsheathed her claws as her tail slashed back and forth angrily. The Riverclan warrior noticed who Bluefang was and ran away, now scared because of Bluefang.  Bluefang turned around to get the kits. She picked the kits up from their scruff and walked off in the direction the camp.

On the way back to camp, Bluefang got held up by a rogue (is this how you spell it?). Of course, the rogue didn't know anyone inside the clans. He tried to fight Bluefang, the mother that held her kits by their scruffs. That rouge made a big mistake in trying to kill Bluefang and the kits. Bluefang killed him in one blow. As you can see, Bluefang is a very protective mother.

When they finally reached the camp again, she was immediately confronted by Blackkit's mother, Nightstep. "How dare you leave with my kit!" Nightstep snapped at Bluefang. Bluefang calmly went over to the Nursery and set the thee kits down. Bluefang then turned back around to Nightstep, but she got a swipe with unsheathed claws to her left eye from Nightstep.


"How dare you attack me, you useless bag of flees!" Bluefang hissed loudly as she retaliated and pounced on Nightstep. Bluefang raised her paw over her head, claws unsheathed and went for the killing blow. But something stopped her. "Mommy, what are you doing?" It was Cinderkit. Bluefang stopped what she was doing and turned her head to look at her kits, who were now watching. "Bad mistake Bluefang!" Nightstep laughed and kicked Bluefang off of herself. Bluefang backed up in shock. Nightstep then took Cinderkit by her scruff and ran. "Cinderkit!" Bluefang gasped. "Give me back my kit, you fox-dung!" Bluefang growled and chased after her used-to-be friend.

Nightstep was running out into the forest. She passed Thrushclaw, but she didn't notice him. Bluefang was running after Nightstep as fast as she could. "Was that Bluefang and Nightstep?" Thrushclaw murmured to himself. "Why did Nightstep have your kit, Thrushclaw?" Blackpelt asked. "I have no idea." Thrushclaw responded. He then ran after the two Thunderclan She-Cats. Blackpelt followed his friend. Blackpelt was Nightstep's mate so he was just as concerned as Thrushclaw was. ​​​​​​

Bluefang finally caught up with Nightstep. The were by the lake now. Well, kind of above it. The two mothers were on a cliff that leaned over the deepest part of the lake.  Nightstep leaned her head over the cliff as she still held Cindertuft by her scruff. "Don't come any closer, Bluefang! Or else Cinderkit here will be dropped!" Nightstep warned. "Mommy help!" Cinderkit cried. "Don't you dare!" Panic and anger rose in Bluefang's voice. 

"Put Cinderkit down, Nightstep." A voice commanded. It was Thrushclaw and Blackpelt. They were standing behind Bluefang.  "OK! if you say so!" Nightstep said as she dropped Cinderkit into the lake. Cinderkit screamed (or yowled). "CINDERKIT!" Bluefang and Thrushclaw yelled, panic coursed through their veins. Bluefang jumped off the cliff to save her kit. As Bluefang fell into the lake, she grabbed her kit's scruff and tried to swim out of the lake. Although they were far away from the shore of the lake, Bluefang pushed through the tiredness and pain coursing through her body. 

~~ Time Skip ~~

Thrushclaw and Blackpelt dragged Nightstep back to Darkclan. Bluefang went straight to the Medicine Cat Den to see if Cinderkit was sick. Bluefang didn't care about her health. She only cared for her kits. She knew she will have one of other kit to take care of after this.

Nightstep was exiled from the clan. When she tried to take Blackkit --her kit-- with her, Bluefang literally dragged her out and got another cat to take Nightstep to the border.
