???Names???

[Vampirecat]

Orchidwing awoke. The silvery moon was just rising. She had slept all day. Her jaws pulled apart in a mighty yawn to reveal long thin white fangs. She streched her front legs out retracting her claws for a short amount to time. Looking down at the tiny bundles at her side sitting on the moss covered ground of the nursery she purred. Look at her very own kits!! She was so proud. They were perfect. She decided she would sit and take in as much detail of them as possible. The one nearest to her head who was lying on top of another little one was a big (for a kit) brown tabbykit. It had longish fur. Even though he was barley a day old she could tell that he would have long spikey fur when he was older. She smiled. Of all the size of him he reminded her of a pinecone. Purring she gave him a lick on his tiny head. The perfect name for him would be Pinekit, she thought happily. She would run it past Dustfang when he came to see them.

The one under the brown tabby was slightly smaller. He had a golden brown coat with faint black markings which would become more promenant as time would progress. He reminded her greatly of an ocelot, a wild cat that once stalked in the great clans. That would be a good name for him. Dustfang could name the other two, she though driftly.

A brown tom kicked and whined in his sleep. He was dreaming he was chasing a pack of wolves out of the forest all by himself. Of course, it was the comedian of Thunderclan, the only apprentice-like tom who would have a dream about this and still be in his twenty-moons. He let out a triumphant howl that was silenced by a hit to the head.

"Shut up, mouse-brain!" Darkclaw hissed after he had so rudely thumped his fellow warrior's head. "Some of us are still trying to sleep!" Then, with a roll of the eyes, the handsome deputy stormed out of the Warrior's den. In actuality, he was glad the tom had awoken him. He was going to take a walk alone that night and Dustfang had only just reminded him by jolting him out of his daydreaming.


Dustfang whimpered, rubbing his head. That had hurt! But of course, he wasn't going to dictate the - though grumpy, - deputy of Thunderclan. Instead of falling promptly back to sleep like he normally would have done, he stood and stretched, remembering something rather important of it's stature. He was a father! Well, he was and had been for only half a day, but it still counted as being a father. Then the Medicine Cat had thrown him out. Of course, he hadn't minded about that. But now that he was awake, Orchidwing may have been awake as well. Though it was night... oh, well. He grinned and trotted off towards the Nursery.
Luckily, she was awake - even if it was only faintly. Whispering a small 'Hello' to his mate, he glanced over the kits.

Four little bundles that only added to the tom's joy. While he was staring at a tiny one, smaller than any of them - who was also the youngest - a sound startled him. One of the kits was snoring! Quite loudly, actually. He purred as his attention flicked to the bigger kit. He wondered if Orchidwing had already chosen names for them with a wide grin.
Probably. But possibly not.

[Vampirecat]

Orchidwing gave Dustfang a big smile as he entered the nursery. "Hello Dustfang." She said joyfully but still sleepily. She leaned forward slightly to rub her silvertabby head against him. Then looking back down at the kits she said to him "The're wonderful aren't they. Perfect and healthy....Have you thought of any names. I think Pinekit for this little cuttie." she whispered lovingly, licking and nuzzling the little spikey tabby tomkit. "And Ocelotkit for this little one." She purred again licking and nuzzling the little bundle that looked like an ocelot.

[\\*Rainstorm*//]

Dustfang grinned with another purr. "Those are perfect names." He mewed gently. Pinekit and Ocelotkit. How fitting. He chuckled. One's fur was rather spiky - or would be once he grew into it. It was pretty obvious to tell. And the other looked predominately like an ocelot - the perfect name for each of the two little kittens. Now that they both had fitting names, there was still two without. A surprisingly tiny one and a surprisingly large one. What could fit them?
Tinykit was stupid and pointless. Everyone would laugh at her. How about... Berrykit? He thought as she awoke. She seemed sweet and Berrykit seemed to fit her. And it was a relatively realistic.

"Berrykit?" He offered, motioning toward the purring little she-kit. He liked it and hoped Orchidwing liked it as well. Then he looked back at the snoring kitten who was curled up in a ball. He was large and rather chunky. He was adorable as well as the others. "And Badgerkit?" It slipped out, but seemed fitting as well.
Those names would be good. Pinekit, Ocelotkit, Berrykit, and Badgerkit. Great! If of course, Orchidwing enjoyed the names as profoundly as he did. At first, he doubted himself for the naming of his own kits, but now he was proud of himself. He did pretty good! Well, he thought.

[Vampirecat]

A smile filled Orchidwing's face. What perfect names!!!!! She looked at her litter, admiring them greatly. "Those are fantastic names!!!Theysuit them very well." Her kits were strong and healthy and good looking! She had a perfect mate. She looked at Dustfang through her oval shaped aqua eyes. He would make a brilliant father. What more could she possibly want!!! This was perfect, it was what she had always wanted. "These are little gifts from starclan!" She sang, her voice ecchoed through the nursery. "Starclan bless us, everyone!!" She was just so darn happy. It was every thing she had ever hoped for, wished for and wanted!!!

[\\*Rainstorm*//]

Dustfang purred happily. Perfect! Ocelotkit, Pinekit, Badgerkit and Berrykit, Orchidwing and his kits. Wow, it was great to be a father! Though of course he hadn't done anything besides pass out, he was still a father; and a mate of the prettiest she-cat in all the forest. "Beautiful." He whispered, not showing if he meant the kits or Orchidwing herself. He sat down to watch the kits for a while. "I wonder if Laurelpaw likes kits.." He said suddenly. "Oh! And I haven't told Graytail, either!" Or any of the rest of the clan, for that matter, though the thought hadn't crossed his mind. Then he realized that he must be talking nonsence to Orchidwing and explained with a embarrased cough. "Graytail is my friend, and Laurelpaw hates my guts. I have a feeling she was wishing for someone more... well... more, I suppose." He shrugged.

For a moment he was silent as he watched his kits sit curled up in tiny little balls and smiled softly as he heard the newly named Badgerkit snore up a storm in his sleep. He was to be a large cat, to be sure, same as his brothers. He smiled at the sleeping trio. Then his gaze turned to the tiny Berrykit. She was so small! It was a miracle she had nothing wrong with her and he thanked Starclan for it.

Autumnstar:;
Autumnstar gave a large yawn as she slumbered before her tail trembled as a cold chill swept over her spine. It was time. She blinked rapidly, leaving the last remains of sleep far behind before she stood up, stretching for a long moment. Half of her wanted to stay curled up for a moment longer, but that would be neglecting her duties. There was a ceremony to be performed today...
As she bounded from her den she looked at the nursery and pushed herself all the way through. She was that Dustfang and Orchidwing were awake and they were sitting with her kits. She had expected just as much.. "Well, its time for their first ceremony. Have you picked names?" she said, looking at the kits before she looked at Orchidwing. Each kit would be a great addition to ThunderClan. She grinned as she tilted her head to hear that one of the kits were snoring. Although she had to put on a happy face, inside she was breaking. How bittersweet her life would be...

[Vampirecat]

Orchidwing gazed lovingly up at Dustfang." How could anyone hate you." She whispered in a kind yet soothing voice before licking him on the head.

Then Autumnstar appeared in the nursery. Orchidwing shook her pelt slightly and her silver tabby pelt tingled with excitement. "Yes we have Autumnstar" She said respectfully and full of pride. "This little spiky tabby tom-kit, will be Pinekit. As, well I think anyway, he looks like a pine cone." She giggled. Not in a mean way but full of motherly love. She licked the kit carefully, smoothing down the spikes before they stuck out again seconds after. "This will be Badgerkit." She said giving a glance to Dustfang as if saying, those are great names you chose. Then she popped out her little pink tongue and licked him down his back. "He will be a strong warrior. This," She said nudging the ocelot like kit. "Is Ocelotkit because I think you'll agree, he looks very like an Ocelot." She gazed dreamily at his lovely coat pattern then licked him lovingly and moved on. "And last but certainly not least, little Berrykit. Shes the only she-cat in the litter." She nuzzled her affectionately.

Autumnstar:;
Autumnstar smiled through bared teeth, although she didn't let her emotion show, she was quite infuriated byt he she-cat, but who could blame her? She had the greatest gift a she-cat could recieve, she had kits. She twitched her tail and nodded her head in sync with her naming the kits, but still her thoughts wandered.
Why did she have to hide Patchkit like it was a sin? Why did she feel guilty for what had happened? Why should she? Before she became leader, she had been a she-cat and she too had been blessed, but now, her sorrow was long lived and her kin was in ShadowClan. She had saved him from the harshness of the forest, but he had repaid her in fighting his way back in. Why couldn't she be proud of her son?
As Orchidwing finished her names, she nodded once more in approval. "We will hold their ceremony now," she said gently. "Get them good looking and bring them out by my den," she said with a smile.

New thread or stay with this one?

[Vampirecat]

OCC- New thread, that way more people will know it exists.

Orchidwing purred loudly. "Great Autumnstar. She picked up one of her sleeping bundle, Pinekit, and began licking his little spiked pelt throughly. He complained and mewed in a weak little voice. "Calm down now little one." She said softly. Then she noticed something in the shecat's eyes. Something hidden. She wondered. "Are you ok Autmnstar?" She whispered.

Pinekit shook his tiny pelt. He let out pitiful squeaks as his mother tried to smooth down his ruffled, spiked fur. He missed the warmth of his siblings.

Ocelotkit mewed as her felt his kin being lifted away. He shuffled closer to his brother and sister beside him. He stuck out his tiny claws, scrapping the ground with them. Lifting his head as far as he could manage he scented the air. There was two new smells, not his mother or siblings. Other things, like his mother but different.

Autumnstar:;
Autumnstar looked down as Orchidwing asked her whether she was okay. She raised her eyes again, but there was burning anger deep within them. "Of course I am fine!" she spat, the sudden rush of adrenaline surging to her skull. Her spine was raised and her tail had brushed out, but then again, she was hit with realisation, why was she spitting at another she-cat and her dream?
"I- I... Bring them out soon," she said and before Orchidwing could say anymore she slunk out of her den and onto her own. She twitched her tail as her gaze wandered over her camp for a long second. "Can everyone old enough to catch their own prey meet under the HighRock for a Clan meeting," she yowled.
