Crescentnight ran back into the nursery; and Raindancer came out with her two kits, Black-kit and Destinykit. "Good luck." She whispered to Arcanemind, and took her sleeping kits to a hollow inside a bush. It was too small for a den, but good enough for Raindancer and her kits.
Inside the nursery, Crescenight called, "Come in."

Arcanemind nodded to Raindancer before walking into the nursery. "Hello." He meowed as he entered. "Raindancer wished me good luck." He meowed. "Is something bad going to happen?" He asked jokingly.

Crescentnight smiled weakly. She was exhausted, but had to make sure her kits were alright with this. "My kits wanted to have a meeting." As she said that, Beechkit came out from his part of the nest. He blended in well with the dry grass.
"Why do you think you can just replace our father?" He demanded. "He died trying to protect our mother, and us."
Crescentnight hissed, "He isn't replacing Fang. He could never do that. But he is doing the duty that Fang could never do. If Fang's father didn't know about this, Fang would grow up, and never have time for you. Let Arcanemind try." The last sentence became a whine.
Mistykit came up to stand beside Beechkit. "If you are going to be our father, then I want you to be a father. You may be busy with your duties, and may even become leader, but try to always be there for us. I know you love our mother, but you have to prove that you love us as well."

Arcanemind smiled down at Mistykit. "I will always be there for you and your mother." He meowed. "Just because you aren't my kits doesn't mean I can't care for you." Then he turned his green gaze to Beechkit. "You are right for questioning me." He meowed. "I would do the same in your case. The only thing I can say is that I will treat you as any father would."

Mistykit nodded, looking satisfied. Beechkit, not so much. He was still pouting about it, but then his eyes sparkled with excitement. "Isn't our Apprentice Ceremony soon?"
Crescentnight purred, "Of course. You will be a great warrior, with cleverness and cunning."
Beechkit looked a bit put out by that.
Crescentnight sighed. "You aren't big like your brother, Shadowkit. You are more lithe, and smaller. Warriors come in all sizes; you would be a great hunter, with your pelt. What do you think Arcanemind?" She looked up to her new mate. Her blue eyes shining with relief.

Arcanemind looked down at the small kit. "Your mother's right." He meowed. "Even though you are small, you will still be a great warrior. I mean, look at me. I'm not nearly as big as some of the other cats in our clan, but I'm able to fight well enough." Then he looked at Crescentnight. "I think I will hold their apprentice ceremonies tomorrow. They deserve them." Then turning back to the kits he asked, "What do you guys think of that?"

Beechkit looked up at Arcanemind, his eyes blazing with happiness.
Mistykit squeaked with excitement.
Crescentnight looked down at her kits with love, and hope.
"Who will our mentors be?" Beechkit asked.

"Well," Arcanemind meowed. "Mistykit will be mentored by Westwind and Shadowkit will be mentored by Southgust." Then Arcanemind turned to Emberkit. "You will be mentored by Northbreeze, since he is our younger medicine cat." Last of all, he turned to Beechkit. "And Beechkit," He meowed, "I will be your mentor. So what do you guys think of that?"

Mistykit gave a trill of excitement. "I can't wait to tell Destinykit!" Her tail was spinning in excitement.
Crescentnight purred at the idea.
Beechkit looked down, not saying anything. Great, Arcanemind is now my father, but now my mentor? He thought. He looked up to meet Arcanemind's gaze. "Fine." He said, his eyes were defiant.
Crescentnight gave an exasperated sigh. "Come on Beechkit, give Arcanemind a chance." Her gave met Arcanemind's, and it glowed of worry.
OOC: I think we need to wait for Squid to post, since she plays Shadowkit and Emberkit. XD

Arcanemind refused to let Beechkit's attitude make him mad. Instead, he turned to Crescentnight. "It's ok." He meowed. "Not every apprentice will be happy with who their mentor is. I'll just have to work really hard to keep him happy." He meowed with a smile.

She smiled back at him. And started purring. "You can tell Raindancer that she can come back." She meowed.
