Epilogue- Mossdrop

The tortoiseshell she-cat quickly ran out of WindClan territory, a cream and tortoiseshell she-cat followed her dangling two newborn kits from her jaw. The tortoiseshell held one pure white kit in her jaws and another snow white one followed, stumbling over too big paws. "Where are we going, mommy?" He called out.

The warm green leaf night was perfect for taking their kits to their fathers. Mossdrop set down one snow white bundle, her daughter and licked the top of her son's head. "We're going to go meet your father." She did a great job at hiding the pain in her voice as she told her kits where they were going. She didn't tell them they were going so they could join RiverClan. At least Fernsplash could keep two of her kits, a cream and white tom she named Berrykit and a dark brown and white she-cat she named Flowerkit. She took her other two kits, a gray and black tom named Wolfkit and a red russet she-cat named Pinekit. Mossdrop was giving both her kits to be raised by Dustyshadow, Troutleap and his mate Dawnstream who had just announced she was expecting another litter of kits. Dawnstream had a friend, Smalllily who had three kits, Moonkit, Mistykit and Marshkit who were only slightly older than Freezekit and Frostkit.

Wolfkit started mewling as they came in sight of the barn. "Mossdrop, can we stop here so I can feed them?" Mossdrop nodded and picked a tired Frostkit back up. "Come on you two, we're almost there." Fernsplash told the kits encouragingly.

When they entered Bell greeted them. It was just Bell, Ian and Haley in the barn since Cast had gone off to join ShadowClan so he could be mates with Dawnfire. "Hi Mossdrop and Fernsplash. Who are these adorable kits?"

Freezepaw got down ready to pounce. "I'm going to be a warrior so I'm not adorable!" He let out a growl and attacked Bell's tail.

Bell purred. "Of course you're not. You're a very talented young warrior."

Mossdrop placed Frostkit on a pile of hay. "This is Frostkit and her brother Freezekit. They're mine and Dustystripe's kits." Fernsplash was on a pile of hay suckling her kits. "The other kits are Pinekit and Wolfkit. They're Snakefrost and her kits. They have two more back at WindClan, Flowerkit and Berrykit."

Bell purred and made nests for the group of cats. "Well, stay as long as you want."

"Thanks Bell. We won't be long. Frostkit and Freezepaw are just going to take a nap while Wolfkit and Pinekit eat." Bell nodded and padded over to her nest and quickly fell asleep. Mossdrop looked at the kits and hoped they were doing the right thing.

So our story must come to a close as our summer ends but I promised there would be a prequel and sequel so there shall be. I'm really excited for the next one. Since I did get 100 reviews I will keep my promise and give you some sneak peeks. I haven't got it written yet, I'm going to start tonight. The leads in the next story are Rushkit (warrior name Rushstripe) Wolfkit (Wolfpaw) Pinekit (Pinepaw) and Freezekit (Freezepaw). One of these characters is going to be legitimately certifiably insane. Frostpaw is actually going to be deaf but I'm going to have her train as a warrior (I hope that turns out great), Troutleap and Dawnstream are going to have another litter of kits, Glasskit (before you say that they don't know what glass is, Bell named her) Shadekit (tom) and Mudkit (tom). Cast and Dawnfire have a litter of kits, consisting of two she-cats, Swiftpaw and Fawnpaw and Ian and Haley have another litter of kits named Puddle (she-cat) and Chip (tom) and as for the plot: one of the kits of the prophecy cats, Minnowkit (Minnowsplash) Rushkit (Rushstripe) Beetlekit (Beetlestep) Willowkit (Willow-wish) Freezekit (Freezepaw) Frostkit (Frostpaw) Berrykit (Berrypaw) Flowerkit (Flowerpaw) Wolfkit (Wolfpaw) or Pinekit (Pinepaw) will be murdered by another one of these characters.

Summary: Sequel will be a murder mystery.

Another note: I did not expect this story to go where it has. I am so thankful to all my reviewers. You don't know how much each review (even the negative ones) meant to me. I hope to see you all during the sequel. I'll be sure to post something saying when the sequel is up.
