Shadow yawned as she awoke from her slumber. She had lost her mother, or perhaps her mother had lost her. All she knew was she was alone, cold, and hungry. She stuck her head out of the den she had found the night before. Her little tummy hurt, but she didn’t know how to hunt for food. The ground outside was covered in fluffy white stuff that she had never seen before. She cautiously stepped out of the den and sniffed at the ground. She had followed the scent of cats, lots of cats, but now with the blanket of white stuff, she could no longer smell any cats.
“Now what am I supposed to do?” she asked herself as she sat and watched snowflakes fall from the sky. She lifted a paw and tried to catch it, but the wind blew the flake just out of her reach. She tilted her head to the side and chased after the snowflake, pouncing at each snowflake that fell.

Silverstreak coughed again and her head felt fuzzy but by starclan she was going to provide for the clan ... she felt horrible that she could have been a reason the clan was sick, she'd mothered that poor kitten, it was sort of worth it though... however she was less happy about hiding how sick she actually felt, from her mate. She spent so much time outside the clan, hunting and scouting, that she didn't have time to let Honeyfur see her.
She wasn't thinking well as she carried the pitiful mouse back to the clan, so unthinking, so full of her sickness, that she fell over in the snow, face first, stumbling right into the path of a small kit who'd been playing with snowflakes, the mouse she'd been carrying rolling from her now limp jaws, to the kit's feet.

Shadow wasn’t exactly paying attention to her surroundings as she pounced on the falling snowflakes. It wasn’t until the other cat had collapsed in the snow that she noticed someone else was there. She darted for the small den she had found. A8fter a few moments in the den, she poked her head out to see of the other cat was still there. When she saw the lump in the snow, she almost retreated into the den. It wasn’t until she spotted the small dead mouse that she remembered how hungry she was. She cautiously approached the other cat, arching her back as she got closer. She was just a tiny kit, so she wasn’t that intimidating at all. She snatched the mouse, ran a few feet away, and ate the mouse while watching the other cat.
Shadow ate the mouse rather quickly. It wasn’t like the food her mother used to bring her, but it was good for now. Her tummy was now full and happy. Her eyes never left the other cat. She was still laying in the snow and now had a thin blanket over her.
“Excuse me,” Shadow said softly as she approached the bigger cat. She placed her paw on the cat’s stomach and tried to move her. She couldn’t move the other cat by much, but she could feel how warm she was. “Wake up.”

Silverstreak smiled back on the kit once her coughing fit was over, she felt too warm in her skin now though and her head felt tight. She really had to get back to camp.. and soon.... and stop hiding how sick she was. "Yes, very good, you could have fall asleep and not woken up too if you hadn't followed your mother" she agreed, resuming her grooming while warming the kitten up.
"There will be lots of other kittens to play with, even some mommies if you still needed a drink" she coughed again, just a little "I'm Silverstreak, i'm happy to take you to where i live, and maybe some of my clan mates can search for your mother, you'll be safe with us until we find her" she said, trying not to jabber on and overload the kit with too much information all at once, instead curling around her more "warm enough to travel yet?"
