Phoenixsong layed on her side, her breathing labored. Her bulging side had a scar that ran down her flank. She had recieved the scar when she had been out by the Stream under the Thunderpath yesterday. She had tripped over a root when she had landed on a piece of wired fence that was half buried. It had belonged to Twolegs that wanted a seperator fence. When it had just brpken down, they left it there long ago. The medicine cat had said that she had the scar where one of her kits was located, and warned her it might have died. Phoenixsong had never lost hope though. She cried out in pain as the first kit was born. To her relief, it was alive. The only flaw it had was a small scar over its left eye. It was healable, and she didnt worry. She licked it dry and nudged it to her belly. The second kitwasnt much of an effort, and she looked at it. She had only mothered two kits, but the less, the better. Her happy face fell when she saw the second kit unmoving. She nudged it and it still didnt move. She cried out in despair as she tried to make it move. It remained umoving, and her eyes blurred with tears. She looked down at her alive kit, and felt blessed that the other had lived. It was a she-cat, and she decided to name it Rowankit. She silently cried in mourn of her dead kit.
