Dewpaw woke up in the morning and ate the mouse. Once Crescentshine woke up, he picked up one of the kits to let her know he was moving them. She started helping him, and soon they'd brought her and all four kits to the nursery.

Eaglestar followed, helping carry Sparrowkit and lay her fragile body down on the soft moss. He licked Crescentshine on the ear and left to speak to his deputy.

"Dewpaw?" Crescentshine called out to her son, who stopped in his tracks and turned around. "Why don't you speak?" He shrugged. "I have nothing to say." He said softly before leaving, Crescentshine now a bit confused and surprised.

"Eaglestar," Raintuft meowed, his gray fur ruffled from the wind. "The dawn patrol found evidence of Marshclan stealing prey from our territory. What will we do about it?"

"Order extra patrols around the border. We cannot afford to lose any more prey. If you find any cats, chase them far off our territory." The gray tom nodded and left to gather more patrols.

"Dewpaw!" Lilypaw bounded over to her brother and skidded to a stop. "How was the Moonpool? Did you see StarClan?"

Dewpaw nodded, humming. He decided not to mention the vision. He was sure Tawnyleaf would tell Eaglestar and there would be a meeting anyways. Unless Eaglestar decided to come to him because he was his son… it had happened before.

Tawnyleaf awoke and stretched, yawning. She padded into the warm sunlight and across the clearing to the nursery so she could check on Crescentshine and the kits. She poked her head through the bramble wall. "Good morning, Crescentshine. How are the kits?"

"They're healthy and strong." Crescentshine purred, curling her tail around them. Batkit and Hornetkit were huddled up together.

"Good. Do you need any herbs for your milk, or is it coming all right?" she asked, flicking her tail towards the medicine den.

"It's coming fine, but I wouldn't say no to some borage. I've got three toms, and they're always hungry." Crescentshine laughed, looking down fondly at her kits.

Tawnyleaf dropped a few borage leaves beside the gray queen and padded off to discuss the visions with Eaglestar and Dewpaw.

Dewpaw followed Tawnyleaf to discuss with Eaglestar, though he was obviously hoping Tawnyleaf would do most of the talking.

"Eaglestar," Tawnyleaf stepped cautiously into his den. "We would like to speak with you."

"Of course, Tawnyleaf, come in. What is it?"

"Well, at the Moonpool, last night, Starclan sent us visions. Dewpaw, tell him what you saw."

Dewpaw looked up at his father nervously. It had been moons since Eaglestar had heard his voice. "Uh…" He cleared his throat like before. "Excuse me… I saw large swarms of bats and hornets swirling together and destroying everything… trees fell, rivers flooded, and… things died…" His voice was very quiet and soft, and he stayed close to Tawnyleaf because of his nervousness, but he was still audible.

She pressed against her apprentice comfortingly. "You did great," she whispered into his ear. "I saw something similar, a black cat with bloody paws and swarms of hornets, and the smell of death."

Dewpaw kept his eyes on Eaglestar, but he was cowering a bit. He turned his ears back and looked uneasy.

"A black cat…and hornets.." Eaglestar whispered. "The only completely black cat in the clan is Batkit. And then there's Hornetkit…" His voice was traces with alarm. "Until we know what this truly means, we must keep an eye on Batkit and Hornetkit. Though I hope my own kits…" He trailed off.

Dewpaw nodded, dipping his head silently with his eyes closed. He was very tense to keep himself from shaking. He could find a quiet corner of the forest for that later.

"I'm sure it will be alright," Tawnyleaf reassured them. "We will keep a close eye on the kits. Thank you for your time, Eaglestar. Come, Dewpaw." She dipped her head and beckoned him out of the den.

Dewpaw followed Tawnyleaf out as calmly as he could, breathing a shaky sigh of relief once they were out. He kept his eyes closed, just staying close enough to Tawnyleaf to know where he was going.

Lilypaw trotted after her brother. "What did you talk to Eaglestar about? Or is it super top secret medicine cat business?" She joked.

"I'm sure father will mention it in the next clan meeting." Dewpaw replied quietly, glancing over at his sister. Although he managed to keep his voice even, he couldn't hide the anxiety in his eyes.

"Hey, what's the matter?" She licked him on the head to comfort him. "You don't have to tell me. I'm here for you, alright?" She trotted off toward her mentor.
