Moonfall aned FeatherPool walked alongside by the swamp. Both of them remembered it from the old NatureClan. Now they knew they couldn't stand it anymore, it was cold, a very cold night that night, and they were both old. MoonFall's silver pelt shone in the moonlight, and FeatherPool's gray pelt did, but not much. They were both old, and MoonFall, though only he and FeatherPool knew, was dieing.
MoonFall and FeatherPool curled up underneath a tree. The cold was seeping at their fur, and they could barely stand it. Of course it began raining, and was raining heavily. They had no chance of getting home without getting soaked and getting hypothermia. So they stayed there, cold but dry, and fell asleep.
The next morning, both bodies lay there, soon to be discovered by a patrol. They were both dead.

(Do the patrol peeps!)
VioletStar leaped out of her den just before the Dawn Patrol was about to leave. It was still raining heavily and every now and then lightening would flash through the sky lighting up the area around them. One of the cats on the patrol was her deputy with of course another warrior or two and several apprentices. "I'm going to join this patrol this morning. We're going to keep a look out for FeatherPool and MoonFall while patroling the borders... " She ordered looking at the rest of the cats and patrol. She flicked her tail for JaggedStrike to lead out into the forest.

A mournful yowl arose in the cold night as a white pelt appeared. "Mother!" Yowled IceFeather. "Father!" Tears ran down her face. "No!" She ran forward and gu her nose into her kins fur. Her siblings would be devasted. IceFeather had just had kits as well, and her mother and father had never got to see their grandchildren.
WoodPelt followed his sister, his eyes wide. No! He though as he ran to stand by his sisters side.

JaggedStrike gave a quick bark of instruction. "YarrowRoot, FlameHeart, BurntSugar, and StarPaw, sorry tarpen,s he needs to elarn clan life too." JaggedStrike told the medicine cat before turning and walking out into the territory. She heard IceFeather. "I think somebody just found something.. but she is supposed to be with her kits... ain't she?" JaggedStrike sped up to a run, her brown mottled fur sliding through the underbrush as she went.

But IceFeather had asked her sister in law to watch her kits while she took a breath of fresh air. But as she and her blood brother were taking a walk, they came across the dead bodies of her parents. "We have to tell the others." WoodPelt said softly, not even knowing if his sister heard him. But IceFeather was too consumed in her thinking she didn't hear him. "Our siblings would like to know, as well as the Clan." WoodPelt tried again, but of course she didn't hear.
(Srry writers block not very descriptive but I can't really think right now with my brother and his gf watching Bubble Boy lol)

Magpietail heard the wailing and wrapped her tail around IceFeather's mewling kits. She lowered her head and whispered,"It's ok." I hope.
Sparroweye ran out of the Warrior's den. He pushed his muzzle into IceFeather's pelt. "It's ok, it's ok. They're watching over you now, and they'll watch the kits too," he mewed. He wasn't sure how he knew what was wrong, he just did.

IceFeather sniffed and looked at SparrowEye."I know... but why did they have to go now? They never even got to see the kits!"
RockyKit mewled and batted at his aunts tail.

Magpietail forced a small laugh and licked the top of his head.
Sparroweye looked into her eyes. "Trust me, I'm sure they had their reasons. Maybe Starclan was calling to them. It'll be alright," he mewed.
Swiftkit mewed and layed down right on top of Rockykit.

JaggedStrike was in lead of the patrol and stopped jsut before running into the tree, bodies and siblings. She blinked "Oh boy." "StarPaw? Will you fetch me TarpenLeaf... tell him we have two new Members of Starclan." she said gently looking back at the apprentice.
"YarrowRoot, and FlameHeart, you two take MoonFall's body back. BurntSugar, you and I will carry featherpools body back, lets get them to camp where it is drier, so the clan can pay its respects." JaggedStrike said keeping ehr voice firm and orderly, but tears spilled from her eyes. it was hard to tell in the rain but the tremors that shook her frame every few seconds were signs of crying. MoonFall had been the deputy befor eher... the oldest member of the clan... he was so respected... She gently hoisted FeatherPool by teh scruff, while BurntSugar slid her shoulders under FeatherPool's hips and lifted, so they could carry her.
YarrowRoot walked up to MoonFall and looked at FlameHeart "Come on Flame." he said solemnly.
