Crescentnight had left the nursery at dusk. She needed a break, and Raindancer was happy to watch her kits. She loved each and everyone of them. They will grow into fine warriors. She thought. She had joined this clan about 6 moons ago, and had always stayed in the nursery. She wasn't able to hunt, to patrol, to do anything. Now, she was enjoying herself. While she watched the aurora lights, she kept thinking of Arcanemind. He is very handsome. A voice in her mind said. She had sworn she wouldn't fall in love with anyone else, but she couldn't help it. She loves Arcanemind. Last night, she had a dream where Fang had come, and told her to be happy. She had taken his advice, and asked Arcanemind to come here tonight. She waited, sitting, not moving. Then, she heard a faint rustle and smelled the scent of Arcanemind. He had come. She thought, a new light shining in her eyes.

Arcanemind padded towards Crescentnight, who was sitting in the Aurora Clearing. He purred when he first saw her. He had never loved another cat as much as he loved her. Not even Harpyspirit, when she had been his mate. But now Harpyspirit was dead, and he couldn't stop thinking about Crescentnight. She's so beautiful. He thought, his green eyes gleaming. But she would never go for a tom like me. She probably only called me here tonight to show me something that might affect the clan. But in the back of his mind, he liked to think about what it would be like if Crescentnight was his mate. They would be so happy together. Finally, he was right beside Crescentnight. He breathed in her sweet scent and sat down beside her. "Hello." He meowed, curling his tail up over his paws. "You wanted me to meet you here tonight? For what?" He asked.

Crescentnight turned her head, fixing her deep blue eyes to his green ones. Her mark was shining in the moonlight, her crescent. Her white fur glowing lightly. Her heartbeat was so loud, she was sure Arcanemind could hear it. "Arcanemind..." She murmured. She had no idea how to begin. Would-" She stopped, thinking of something else. "What do you think of my kits?" She asked, suddenly. She wanted to be sure that he didn't mind her having four kits, who were about to become apprentices very, very soon.

"Your kits?" Arcanemind meowed, mostly to himself. Why would she be asking me about her kits? He thought. They're just like all the other Boulderclan kits. Then he looked at Crescentnight and meowed, "Your kits are regular Boulderclan kits. They will end up making fine warriors one day." He gazed into Crescentnight's blue eyes, and his heart began to beat faster. His blue gray fur began to shine as the moonlight flooded down on the clearing. "Why do you ask?" He asked her, still curious.

Crescentnight turned her head to look at the moon. "I asked because I wasn't sure of what you thought of them," She murmured. Her fur glowed more brightly as the moon rose higher. She lowered her voice to a soft whisper. "I love you."

Arcanemind's green eyes widened in surprise as a smile spread across his face. Then he began to purr loudly and moved closer to Crescentnight, pressing his body against hers. "I love you too." He whispered, licking the top of her head lovingly.

Crescentnight looked up at Arcanemind; her eyes showing disbelief. Then the shone with happiness. She started purring. Then she whispered, "That's why I asked about my kits. They are old enough to realize that their father is dead. And that I was to fall in love again. They don't care about that they will have a step-father. I just wanted to know that you wouldn't mind being the step-father." She pressed her body closer to his.

"Of course I wouldn't mind being their step-father." Arcanemind meowed, twining his tail with Crescentnight's. He looked into her blue eyes, while his green eyes gleamed with happiness. I can't believe she likes me! He thought. His heart was beating fast as he began to purr. "I also wouldn't mind having more kits." He meowed. "That is, of course, if you wouldn't mind either." His green eyes looked hopeful as he told her this.

Crescentnight purred. "Of course I wouldn't mind. I would love to have kits with you. And, my ktis are ready for their apprentice ceremony soon." She had said little, but her blue eyes told all. Her love, her happiness, her pride... Her purr became louder as she thought of all the possibilites. I could be happy again, and have someone to love. But something in the back of her mind was bugging her. Of all of her kits, Beechkit was most sensitive about this. We'll just have to see what the future holds. She thought.

Arcanemind nodded. "There are so many apprentices now. We barely have enough warriors to train all of them." He meowed, chuckling. "I will give both Southgust and Westwind an apprentice... then maybe you can mentor one of them and I will mentor the last one." He meowed. "I would like to mentor Beechkit. He seems like he has a lot of promise. Do you want to pick which one you would like to mentor?" He asked. I've never been this happy... He thought with a sigh.

Crescentnight sighed in amusement. "I have to be truthful. Emberkit doesn't like fighting. She is playful, but she feels as if she has more potential then just being a warrior. I am worried." She turned her blue eyes away to look at the lights.

"Maybe she can train as Northbreeze's and Jadefeather's medicine cat apprentice if she doesn't like to fight." He meowed. "Or by more potential, did you mean that she feels she will be deputy or leader?" He asked, still looking at her even though she wasn't looking at him.

She looked up to him, her blue eyes burning itno his green gaze. "She has always dreamed of becoming a medicine cat; by guiding the leader, and always being there. Not taking responsibility for the whole Clan. She wants to be on the outside, and be helpful differently." Her gaze went back to the lights and the waning moon. "She said one day, that she couldn't be part of BoulderClan if she couldn't be something she loves."

"Well if being a medicine cat apprentice will keep her in the clan, then that's what will happen." He meowed. "I don't want to do anything that would drive one of my step-children away." He looked at the moon's position in the sky. "We should be getting back to camp soon. It's getting late. Would you like to join me in my den tonight?" He asked

Crescentnight looked into Arcanemind's face. "Sure." She replied, feeling relieved that Emberkit doesn't feel as if she has to run away.
