“You can’t leave the den,” she mewed firmly, “But I can bring her here. Wait a moment.” She padded out to see Lilyflight calling for Lionkit.He let her make him lie down. "Please, can I see Lilyflight?" He asked

“Lionkit! Please get down!” She couldn’t help remembering Owlherb’s accident. “Stay where you are!” She climbed and picked up the kit in her scruff, carefully holding him as slid down the trunk. “Floodpaw? What is it?” As she swept Lionkit close she looked at the medicine cat apprentice worriedly.
“Bramblestar wants to see you. If you go, I can watch your kits if you like, but be careful when you’re with him.”
“I will, thank you. Listen to Floodpaw, okay?” She looked down at her son.
