((sorry, realized I posted this tooearly, this is when I wanted to post this))
Swiftkit was super tired after the gathering. She quickly fell asleep aside a nice queen who would let her stay while Brightkit was sick. In her sleep she dreamed.
She dreamt of a calico pelt before her, and a softness underneath, it was softer than any moss she'd ever felt. She then dremt of angry sounding voices, but they weren't cats voices, she couldn't describe the booming sound eminated from somewhere above her. THen it was dark, and cold. Wetness fell from the sky, what is this cold wet substance? She was completely and utterly alone.
She snapped awake Mama!!! her head felt hot, and her pelt was sticky with sweat.

Spottedpelt woke with the horror in Swiftkit's voice, What is it?Is everything alright?Spottedpelt felt cold that only one kit was with her the others with another kit.She started to lick Swiftkit with her rough licks.

It was awful! I was all alone! and It was dark! And..... I saw a calico pelt. Why did I see a calico pelt? Why didn't I see you? Why am I older than Brightkit, Dustkit, and Wildkit?Momma, my head, it hurts....... Small mews escaped her throat. Her body ached all over.

Spottedpelt hoped not to tellthe truth but she guessed it was time, Come here I will tell you everything.Spottedpelt picked Swiftkit by the scruff and moved her to where she wouldn't be next to Brightkit but close to Spottedpelt.Look I didn't want to tell you this yet but you are asking why, so here this is the truth.Swiftkit I may not be your mother but I love as if you were my own.Your real mother dropped you off here when I found Thunderclan.Whe it rained you squealed and I took you under mychest for your warmth.Swiftkit your real mother is not me but remember you will always be a daughter to me.Your real mother is well not dead but her name is Sweety and that is all I know.Swiftkit you need to remember this, even if someone says you are not clan born well you are no matter what.You will grow up to be in Thunderclan and become and great warrior.Do you get what I am saying?Spottedpelt licked Swiftkit until the sweat from Swiftkit was gone.

I understand. And I know that.... Though my mother didn't want me, you do! And that's enough for me.....I like the forest! I like living with you all. I like....everythin....g..
A cough was issued from her throat, it was sore, sooo sore. Her head throbbed, and Spottedpelts tongue felt oddly cool against it. The heat in her head caused her to black out.
She didn't know what was happening around her anymore. There was nothing but the darkness that enveloped her. But it was different than sleep.
Her limbs throbbed. Whimpers escaoed her mouth. SHe couldn't open her eyes.

Spottedpelt felt Swiftkit under her tongue, she looked at the kitand then yowled for someone to come for help.
Strongheart heard the yowl from the warriors den where he was sleeping.He bolted out and raced to the nursery.What is it what is wrong?He looked at Swiftkit and then he thought, Swiftkit
Spottedpelt mewed to Strongheart, Shes having a black out!Hurry get poppy seeds, cat mint from the medicine cat den and fast!She licked faster at Swiftkit to cool her down but it didn't work.When Strongheart got back she was still licking.Strongheart go fetch some socked moss Swiftkit is burning up!Spottedpelt took some cat mint and put it gently against Swiftkit's fur.It would cool her down from the coldness it had.She then took half it away and put it gently at Swiftkit's mouth.Hoping that it would work like it did when Strongheart was having a black out.

Swiftkit heard the fuss. She felt wetness at her mouth, and wanted to lap up the cool liquid, but her body wouldn't respond. She wanted to wake up, why was everything so dark? What was happening to her?

Finally responding to treatment, Swiftkit awoke. Her throat hurt, and she gave some weak coughs. Her chest heaved for every breath.

Spottedpelt got more cat mint for Swiftkit and was happy that the black out was over.She put the cat mint in front of Swiftkit's mouth waiting for her to gnaw on it.

She took the mint. It was very bitter, but it made her start to feel better. She thought about getting better, she wanted to be an apprentice soon, she was already 5 moons old.

Swiftkit finally managed to go to sleep. SHe kept waking up though coughing. Her nose was streaming. Her cough was getting worse. Her eyes watered. Her lungs filled with mucas, making her cough up phlem.
(I'm making her have whitecough, almost die, then have a miraculous healing thanks to medicine cat Spottedpelt ;P)

A young she cat suckled one little kit, the others had died during birth.TigerkitShe licked her as the little kit suckled, the kit then soon got done and squealed.Tigerkit walked around awkwardly and then felt warm fur.She had bumped into a kit which she was sharing her bed with.Move!Tigerkit squealed she felt her mother's lick and mew, Now that isn't nice Tigerkit!Tigerkit then mewed, Sorry She went around the warm fur and then was next to another warm fur.Tigerkit stayed still while she was in a warm spot between two warm furs.
((The two kits who are with her are the ones Spottedpelt had they are sharing a bed with Tigerkit!))
