HeartPool Bristled at Larksparrow as the apprentice was out of the den "Dont...order me around like some helpless apprentice..." as soon as she said it she frowned "I as a full medicine cat of shadow clan can see that we are getting low on herbs... I will go...by my own desicion.. Not be cause you told me to..." HEr purple eyes were cold. she turned "LarkSparrow...i have no clue what i did to make you think less of me but...apparently im just as good as you... but your no better then me. just because you press your cases more then mine...doesnt mean that you know more or have a right to thin so..."She started forward "And LArksparrow..." She grit her teeth and shook her head..."Nevermind..." the anger going out of her when she saw the apprentice "Dont worry..." She ran her tail down her flank. "I wont tell...and you should just breath...everything will be fine."
Moving gracefully she set out of the camp to her surprise StarPelt had already found some. SHe nodded and pulled some. A fair amount. She pulled a larger leaf that would conceal their sent and apperence while she carried them back. No one would find out by her.
Sliping back into the den she moved to the back and slid the leaves into place. Her purple eyes fixed on the task of organising but her ears picked up on the conversation

Starpelt walked in with Heartpool and placed her herbs down to the ground and immediatley walked over to where Larksparrow was at. "Is they anything else we need? She asked.

"Well I didn't see you volunteering so I thought I'd give you a shove in the right direction," Larksparrow snarled. Softer, so not to disturb her patient, she hissed, "Besides, if you were a true medicine cat you'd put the well being of Ebonypaw before any spat you had with me. Keep your issues with my authority out of this den while an extremely panicked pregnant cat is in it!"
"Thank you," she responded to Starpelt. Thank Starclan her apprentice had been able to find some so quickly, either she was rather skilled with hunting herbs or the cats in Silverpelt wanted them to succeed, either option was one Larksparrow was pleased with.

Ebonypaw opened her mouth to take in the scents to find Larksparrow's nest. She gave a weak almost fake smile to the licks from both Larksparrow and Swiftcloud though she appreciated it, her mind was to jumbled and frightened to smile.
She padded over to the bed and curled in it. Placing one paw gently on her stomach and felt the lumps. Why had she not noticed it before? Her eyes wandered to Swiftcloud, her eyes softened and her tail twitched asking him to come over to her. "Wanna feel them?" Ebonypaw was trying to forget the bad, the smell of the thyme was helping to clam her, but she was still shivering for the moment.
((The rp still has a bit to go ^^, I think I'll have her fall asleep, sink out to look over the camp early in the morning, have Moonstar talk to her a bit might break out in a word fight who knows and then Moonstar will find out about the kits in a rather abrupt way as Ebonypaw goes into labor))

"Sure." Swiftcloud mewed in good humor hopeing to calm her down. He placed his paw on her belly feeling the little lifeforms. "I'm sure they will be beautiful because you are their mother." Swiftcloud purred. Ebonypaw could not die from this pregnancy she just couldn't or he would not know what to do.

HeartPools pelt bristled as the medicine cat put away the herbs. LarkSparrow had called her on a fault. Great. She sighed and looked at the white cat. But honestly. EbonyPaw would be ok. She just felt it in her bones. She should be frantic and yet she wasnt worried really. She looked at the apprentice. Although she was a little paniced. She seemed to be fine. Heartpool moved over to sit beside the den. Her pelt settled. She looked back in and nodded herself to composer. "Your right larksparrow..." she nodded and went to sort through the herbs to see what the needed. SHe could take a few warriors to go find the other stuff. Her tail swished and she calculated the herb supplies. They were fairly well kept. She nodded and ducked from the den.

Ebonypaw smiled a bit at Swiftcloud trying to purr, but it was a broken up purr. She shifted to a more comfortable position laying her head down.
"I'm afraid Swiftcloud....what if I'm not strong enough? What if there is something wrong with the kits?" Ebonypaw mewed feeling a bit better to say her fears out loud.
Ebonypaw scooted in the bedding a bit her tail twiching again asking him to lay beside her.

Swiftcloud laid down beside her. "You don't need to be afraid. You need to be strong for the kits... For me." He mewed with emotion in his voice. She had to have some faith in herself.

Ebonypaw's shivering stopped for a moment, but it was so hard to calm down. The thyme and Swiftcloud helped, but she felt helpless, specially if Starclan wasn't watching over her. The kits at least please, please, if I have done wrong do not punish them. Ebonypaw prayed silently her eyes closed tight. She opened them lifting her head to press it into Swiftcloud's fur.
" Do you think, if the clan decides to shun us for what we have done, that the kits will be treated the same? I really don't care about what anyone thinks about me, but my..our kits have done nothing wrong." Ebonypaw twitched and her head lowered a bit she felt a dizzy spell again. What was it going to be like to give birth? Would she be able to stand the pain?

Swiftcloud thought about it for a bit. "I don't know." He mewed, he honestly did not know the answer. He pressed his nose into her soft fur. How long? How long until the kits will be born? That question was edged into his head. He could sense Ebonypaw's distress like rain on a cat's pelt. "You'll be alright." He purred to her.
A few seconds had gone by before Swiftcloud asked, "When are we going to tell the rest of the clan?" He was afraid of waht they might think. Most of all he was afraid for the kits. They did nothing wrong! If the clan must blame a cat blame me! It's my fault Ebonypaw is pregnant! Thoughts were roaring through his mind like a storm.

Ebonypaw finally began to lay her head down, her shivering was slowly subsided as though her body was shutting her down in preparation of the struggle that was to some. "I hope so....I don't wanna die....specially not before I'm a warrior." She mewed sounding drowsy.
"We aren't." Was Ebonypaw's simple reply after a moment she went on. " When they hear my yowls of pain as I give birth they will know. That way I'll be left alone for awhile. I don't need the stress of knowing what the clan thinks before I give birth.......with the way I feel they won't have to wait long. Now that I know what going on, I can tell what the different ...not pain, but discomforts are. I can feel them moving Swiftcloud..." Ebonypaw's voice became mystified as she seemed to be realizing the magical feeling of having life inside her.

Swiftcloud comforted her by licking her flank. "You won't die." He said. How much pain would she have to go through before the kits came? He knew that Ebonypaw would survive. She had too.
Swiftcloud looked seriously at her as she said the kits were coming soon. He didn't know what he could say to comfort her. Part of him wanted the kits to come and part of him didn't.

Ebonypaw's shivering stop as he licked her and told her she won't die. She seemed to settle into a position beside and she closed her eyes. After a few moments she had fallen asleep, her chest rising and falling in the rhythmic pattern of deep sleep. The kits weren't coming tonight at least, she could rest for now. She dreamed about her kit hood how it had seemed so short, then she dreamed about how long it took for the apprentice ceremony to take place. Her dream was about her life to this point, Ebonypaw was determined to survive this ordeal, she hadn't gone through training and heart ache just for it to end here.
It wasn't till early the next morning that Ebonypaw awoke. Everyone else was still asleep. Ebonypaw felt like she was going to explode, but she ignored the feeling and padded out of the den to look over the camp. Her eyes seemed to question the baron space as though it would tell her what the clan would say. Everyone for now it seemed they were all still asleep, but this was fine with Ebonypaw, she planned to tell no one right now anyways.

 Moonstar was up early, after finishing a patrol. She couldn't sleep with all the thoughts she had, the secrets she knew. She headed towards the fresh-kill pile, coming towards the medicine cat den.

Ebonypaw's ears twitched as she saw her mother. She shuffled her paws almost wondering how well the shadows were hiding her from view. She was tempted to go back inside, but the freshkill called to her and if she was right she would need her strength if she was going to make it. She glanced at her belly, she didn't really show her pregnancy it would be fine right?
Ebonypaw ventured from the shadows she was suppose to be training with Phantomgaze this morning so eating now would not get her in trouble.
"Morning Moonstar." Her voice was a little shaky she had not meant for it to be, but she couldn't control it.
