Egypt ran straight toward her kit. All she knew was there was a cat dead, Moonkit was making a fuss into Pharoah shoulder, and her kit's life had been in danger. "Pharaoh?! What happened?" Egypt rasped her tounge over the similar leaperd pelt. Egypt looked down at Mariah, the cat who had risked her life saving Pharaoh. "If she had still been alive, I would have been in her debt forever." Egypt said aloud, not caring who heard her. |

Silver nodded to the tom who had sat near to her. "I... I know this is an un-DarkClan-like thing to do, but I will sit vigil with her tonight."
Moonkit rarely lost her temper. Her timid nature mostly restricted that. But she rounded on Softkit, snarling. "How can you possibly blame him! You're the one that pressured him to do it anyways!" She glared at Softkit for a mement before twitching her whiskers in apology. "I-I'm sorry, S-Softkit," She stammered, tears making her eyes wet. They splashed onto her little paws. "I wanna go home! I want momma!"

Pharaoh pulled away from Moonkit and his mother, burying himself deeper in Mariah's fur. He said nothing, only pressed himself as close as he could to the calico belly, as if he were still a newborn in his mother's nest. (( Urrgh, short! DX ))

Blackheart frowned as the she-cat hit the ground and snorted. " Just what we needed, I was going to ask her to come on the hunting patrol" he murmured. Slowly, he walked towards the body of the cat and shied back as the thick stench of death entered the air. " She's dead alright, shame though, she has been here for some time." his voice was usual and untouched by grief but if a cat had strong ears then they would be able to hear his pity for her relatives.

(( The body hasn't been there long enough to get stinky yet. ))
Pharaoh twitched his ear at a new voice. He lifted his head and glared at the expressionless tom. His blue eyes blazing, he fluffed up and spat, "If you were half the cat Mariah was you'd care, you fox-heart!"

Blackheart gave a mrrowl of laughter at the youngling's anger. "This world is a harsh place. If you are going to become a true darkclan warrior then you will have to deal with pain, physical and emotional." he looked at the cat sternly. "If you cannot handle Mariah's death then I don't know what will become of you." He gave the youngling a smile and motioned away from the body. "Come with us for a hunting party, it'll take your mind of Mariah."

Silver glared up at Blackheart, fury in her eyes, but she didn't say anything. She instead turned to Softkit, reading the feisty kit's expression carefully. "I need to speak to you," She said. She crouched by the kit and murmured in her ear, "I have an idea for you, Softkit. I know this will be a large change in your life, but hear me out. We are kindred spirits. I, too, had lost my mother when I was little, and my father too, as far as I know." At this, Silver glanced with grief towards the place where mountains rose in the distance, the home of MountainClan. She knew that was where they went... and yet, she was not sure how. Goldkit, she thought, will tell me later.
"Softkit... Mariah was my mother, and now she, too, is gone. What I am suggesting is that you stay in DarkClan. I'd make sure you got the best training here but in DarkClan you aren't tied down by the same customs and rules. You are a strong kit, and so nothing bad will ever befall you. I shall make damn sure of that if I need to." She wondered how the kit would react to this, but said nothing, awaiting Softkit's reply.
Moonkit lay down by Pharaoh and closed her eyes. She couldn't think of what else to do.

Pharaoh ignored Blackheart and allowed Moonkit to curl up next to him, not knowing what else to do. He burrowed his small muzzle into her gray fur, feeling comforted by her presence.
Thorn had watched the whole spectacle carefully. He too had felt saddened by the death of Mariah, but like most did not show it. Instead he hopped down from his seat, stretching and using his long claws to score gouges in the ground.

Blackheart shrugged as Pharoah turned away. " Your loss, the clan needs prey anyways." Blackheart felt a flood of relief as he walked away and quickly hid himself among the bushes away from the camp. He licked his fur frantically trying to dim the pain of his wound. He couldn't help but feel pride as he had hid his pain so far and hope was beginning to flicker into life. "Blackheart you are one lucky kitty" he murmured to himself. He stood and made his way back, catching a bird for the pile of fresh kill just in case any cats wondered where he was.

Moonkit looked up at Pharaoh sadly, and rasped her tongue over his ear. "It's ok, she's with StarClan now," She said quietly.
Silver nodded, eyes glittering with the happiness that surged forth at hearing Softkit. She was unable to forget the loss of Mariah, but felt as though she could look forth to a better tomorrow. "Do you wish to tell her, or should I?" She whispered, flicking her ears towards Moonkit.

Blackheart sat down and looked at the kits properly for the first time. They were small and they seemed to be content here but it hurt him as he thought of being taken away from his home... or rather forced out. Blackheart felt fury rise within him and scolded himself for bringing up those memories. He sat down and looked at Moonkit, seeking for something to slow down his racing mind. "I'm sorry, I don't think I know your name..."

"Let me handle it then," Silver offered. She stood up calmly, strode over to Moonkit, and muttered in her ear. The gray-and-white kit gasped a little, and tears glazed her eyes, but Silver muttered something else and she blinked slowly, dispersing the tears about her eyes. She glumly paced over to Softkit and buried her nose in the kit's neck fur for a moment before drawing back. "I'll miss you, Softkit," She sighed. "But she'll make sure you're safe." She flicked her tail in Silver's direction, and the healer winked at Softkit.
