I said it's been a long time
Since someone looked at me that way
It's like you knew me
Since someone looked at me that way
It's like you knew me
And all the things I couldn't say
'You've done well Doestrike. Four she-cats and a two handsome little toms. Flamepath will be so proud.'
Doestrike lay in one of the nursery nests and sighed happily as her little bundles of fur snuggled against her. It'd been at least a week since her kits had been born. She'd never felt more pride in her life, when she had the day she'd met her children. She'd named them properly, of course, asking her mate Flamepath for suggestions. He wasn't much help. ('m teasing c:)
Her four she-kits were named Skykit, Cinderkit, Birchkit, and Maplekit. Skykit was a beautiful little dark gold she-kit, she reminded Doestrike of a friend she once had, Skye. And so, in dedication of her, the kit was named Skykit. Cinderkit was a brown tabby, with white paws that reminded her of the ashes after the great fire in Treeclan so many moons ago. Birchkit was a tabby and white she-cat who reminded her of the birch tree bark. Maplekit, the runt of her litter, was a calico. She'd been named after a great warrior a long time ago.
Her two toms were quite different. Boys were always hard to name. She and Flamepath had settled with Coyotekit and Brackenkit. Coyotekit had been named after his pelt color, which resembled the stories elders had told her about the wolves and coyotes. Brackenkit had been named after his pelt as well. His pelt matched the color of wet bracken, his pelt stood out at spiky angles when he was born, so the name was fitting.
She wrapped her tail around her little balls of fur around her belly and purred, licking them over and over. Not only had Doestrike smelled like milk, but now she was scented like a queen. A quite homely and wonderful smell that she wished she could keep forever. Falling into a somewhat good slumber, she wrapped her tail tightly around them as if to keep them safe. What would happen when they grew up? Would she still be able to take care of them?
"I want the best for you children. I wish you would stay like this forever."
