Pebbleshine's Kits/Chapter 5

==Chapter description==
:Pebbleshine stops and tastes the air, feeling her belly grow heavier. She can smell the Twolegs and monsters, and she could make out the smell of bird. Determined, Pebbleshine drops into a crouch, seeing a pigeon perched on a tree. She thinks if she was in SkyClan with Hawkwing, then they would have made sure she was well fed, but now, she must depend on herself. Pebbleshine starts to climb up the tree but realizes the branch the pigeon was on might be too thin. She looks upwards, seeing a branch that was stronger, climbing onto it. She prepared herself to leap and grab for the pigeon, but the leaves of the shadows scared the pigeon, taking off. Pebbleshine leaps after it and she grabs it's feathers, but the impact took away her breathe. She grabs for the bird but they both tumble onto the Twoleg roof, as it didn't support her weight and they both crashed through the roof and down down to the ground. 
:She was too shocked about what had just happened, seeing she had fallen into a pile of straw. Pebbleshine curls up around her belly and feels them move, thanking StarClan. She wonders how does she get out, padding over the door and trying to jump out of the window. Pebbleshine had a horrible thought she would give birth here, while they were trapped and starved. She couldn't feel or see StarClan, feeling hopeless. She curled up on the straw, falling asleep but felt some cat licking her ears. Pebbleshine sees Hawkwing over here, thinking he can't be real. Hawkwing meows she needs to get up. She can feel her mate, and purrs likes she won't stop. 
:Pebbleshine wonders if Hawkwing is dead, but he didn't glow. Hawkwing meows there are things she must do, and the queen sees many cats;Waspwhisker, Echosong, Tinycloud, Macgyver and the leader Leafstar, and Pebbleshine asks if she is dreaming. The gray tabby tom meows yes, apologizing he can't be here with her. Pebbleshine wails she tried to return to him and SkyClan, but she can't do it on her own. Hawkwing meows she can, telling her their kits have destinies, and she can do it. Pebbleshine asks how, and Hawkwing meows to keep calm and to remember StarClan is guiding her, and the light around him slowly faded. The queen meows to not go, but her mate and her Clan were gone, and she woke up. Pebbleshine wonders what just happened, thinking about her kits' destinies. She finds a stick, pushing it. Pebbleshine began to tap the wall until it cracked, and transparent stuff fell out. She howls in success she done it, and squeezes through, trying to avoid the sharp bits. Pebbleshine lands on the soft grass, calling out she is powerful enough and her kits will make it, silently thanking Hawkwing.
