Return to the Clans/Part 2

==Chapter description==
:Sasha has not told her kits about their father yet. At times, Sasha feels hopeless with prey being so scarce, and she snaps at her kits when she finds her kittypet collar outside their den. Her kits noticed her sad demeanor and decide to go to the Twolegplace to try and find Ken, her former housefolk. When she's out hunting, the kits make their escape towards the Twolegplace. Shnuky advises them to be wary of the Thunderpath and the cars, but the kits brush off her advice and continue their adventure.
:Meanwhile, Sasha returns from a successful hunting trip and is dismayed to discover they are gone. She tracks their scent towards the Twolegplace and runs into her old friend Shnuky, who reveals she saw three kittens not too long ago. Shnuky and Sasha continue their search, while the kits are cornered by three BloodClan cats. They threaten to turn the kittens into collars and the kits run away in fear. They hide in an abandoned Twoleg nest, but accidentally trap themselves inside when the window closes behind them.
:Sasha and Shnuky continue tracking the kits and Sasha threatens the BloodClan cats to tell them where her kits went. As it rains, a pipe bursts in the Twoleg nest were the kits are trapped and it quickly begins to flood. Sasha and Shnuky find the kits trapped and manage to open the window. Tadpole urges Hawk and Moth to climb, but he drowns before Sasha can save him. Sasha, Hawk, and Moth heavily grieve for Tadpole's death, and Sasha takes her kits back to their den in the forest. Tigerstar visits Sasha's dreams and reveals that while Tadpole isn't with him, he is safe. 
:Sasha suffers through the grief of her son's death. Pine returns and is delighted to see Sasha back after so long. He describes how she missed the battle against BloodClan and how the smaller BloodClan leader tore apart a much larger brown Clan cat. Pine notices Sasha's somber demeanor and Sasha vaguely admits that life has been difficult for a while. Pine offers to take her and her kits to a barn with friendly farm cats and plentiful prey, and Sasha and her family agree.
