Kiki/Africa/Cricket

Kiki jumped into an abandoned stall and lied in the corner. She gave birth to five kittens and cleaned them thoroughly. After that she gave them their first meal.

Africa and Cricket squirmed and mewed continuously. Before feeding on their mother's milk.

Elf, Trillium, Mirepaw, & Elfina

Since the time of their encounter, Nivi's leg had been splinted by Martha. The splint was still on, though the leg was healing quite nicely. The various cuts and bites along his body were also nearly healed, leaving the tom with some nice battle scars.

Jack had caught infection in some of his wounds, though he was lucky not to have any broken bones. Still, he was not one for sitting still and being held by humans.

Elf caught heat from his brothers, particularly Jack, when he returned after the fight. After spending the first week getting a claw in the face or a chilling hiss, his brothers were slowly forgiving him for his lack of help. And by now, they were all best chums again.

The long-eared tom came padding into the barn, a small field mouse hanging from his jaws. He had been keeping tabs on Kiki, and knew it was close to her time. And so when he found her in the corner with five new kittens, he wasn't all too surprised. "Erm, I... caught this for you." Elf said, dropping the rodent uncerimoniously down in front of the tabby. Then he sat back on his haunches, looking with curiousity at the kittens.

Kiki

Kiki smiled at her mate. "Thank you." She said softly before eating the mouse. Her green eyes flashed down to her children. "Their names are Cricket, Trillium, Mirepaw, Elfina, and Africa." She told the tom, pointing out each of the small kittens.

Kaisho/Kiki/Cricket/Africa

An eagle soared over the barn and landed on a small tree a ways from the cat family. "Austin wonders if you'd like to come home now." He said to the mother. Kiki looked up at the bird. "I suppose the kittens are ready to explore." She replied. Cricket stared at Kaisho with wide eyes. "What is that?!" He exclaimed excitedly. Kiki pawed the young male playfully. "That is a bird. He is our friend." She informed, standing up to lead the five kittens into a new land. But before she left, she turned to Elf. "I must go now. I'll come visit you, though." She purred. "You can come with, if you want."

Kaisho took flight and flew above the family. "I'll lead you there." He replied, flying to the Breve Ridges. Kiki began walking, followed by Cricket and Africa, and hopefully followed by the rest.
