CHAPTER 3
Jaykit tried to move, but pain shot through his limbs and gripped his chest like claws.
Panic flooded him. I’m broken!
He tried to mew for help.
“Hush, little one.” Warm breath stirred his fur, and a soft nose nuzzled his flank.
He figured it must be Leafpool, though she sounded strange. Perhaps the throbbing1 in his head was confusing him. Jaykit knew he was in the cleft2 in the wall of the hollow that formed Leafpool’s den3. Moss4 softened5 the ground beneath him. Cold air flowed down the smooth rock walls, soft as water. Tendrils of bramble shielded the entrance. The scent6 of herbs filled the air; instinctively7 Jaykit tried to distinguish one from another. He identified juniper easily—Leafpool had fed it to Lionkit for bellyache after he had eaten too much fresh-kill. Borage he remembered from when Ferncloud had a fever after Icekit and Foxkit were born.
Where were Hollykit and Lionkit?
He couldn’t smell them anywhere.
“Lie still, little one.”
Jaykit opened his eyes and saw a she-cat crouched9 beside him. He realized he must be dreaming. She wasn’t a cat he recognized, but she had ThunderClan scent. Her image was hazy11, a jumble12 of shapes, but he could make out the beautiful orange and brown markings on her
