Pebbleshine's Kits/Chapter 4

==Chapter description==
:Olive and Milo decide to go to eat a bit, and say good bye to their housefolk. Olive anxiously asks how she would manage overnight without getting food from the Twolegs, and reluctantly accepts Pebbleshine's decision. The kittypets bound up a slope and slip under a fence, Pebbleshine following more slowly, and she settles under a bush. She sees Olive and Milo appear with a female Twoleg, and wonders if she was a healer. The two kittypets rub against the Twoleg and making Pebbleshine horrified. After, Milo announces they are ready to travel to the monster camp and starts to lead, but Olive has a different opinion about the route. Milo reassures her it's the correct way, making Pebbleshine doubtful, but decides it's worth a risk. She asks if they must follow the Thunderpath and Milo tells her they do, and Pebbleshine thinks not all kittypets are weak. Olive asks if she lives in the monster camp and Pebbleshine replies her and her Clan are only travelling, and Milo asks what a Clan is, and Pebbleshine explains, finishing with her Clan being called SkyClan. Olive asks if the father if her kits are in SkyClan as well and Pebbleshine replies he is, and the black-and-white kittypet meows she wishes they could be a Clan member as well. Pebbleshine meows it's not that simple, telling them about a bad cat that pretended to be friendly, but drove them out of their home, thinking about Darktail. 
:Olive offers for her to become a kittypet, but Pebbleshine rejects, suggesting they become warriors. Milo tells her they cannot leave their housefolk, but Pebbleshine explains about daylight warriors. Olive asks where do SkyClan live now, and the white-and-brown she-cat meows they are heading to a lake, and Olive meows she hopes they find the lake. Milo meows they have almost arrived, and they race up the hill, and Pebbleshine looks down at the monster camp, but realizes it wasn't the one she lost SkyClan. Olive asks Pebbleshine if they are still here, but the queen meows it isn't the right one, and the two kittypets apologize. The black-and-white kittypet suggests they should sleep, and Milo meows he is hungry. Pebbleshine offers to hunt for him, but Olive tells her she shouldn't, and she needs to rest. However, Pebbleshine insists, meowing she needs to think about other things. 
:She goes around the trees, and smells prey, dropping into a crouch. Pebbleshine sees a squirrel, and leaps up the trees, thanking StarClan for the prey. She heads back to the kittypets, and Milo and Olive praises her for the catch. Pebbleshine offers for them to share, but she can tell they are not enjoying the prey, and they apologize to each other. After they have eaten, they curled up around the bushes, but Pebbleshine lies awake, looking at StarClan, believing they can take her home again. In the morning, Milo announces that they must go back to their housefolk, and Olive offers Pebbleshine to come. She thinks about the possibility, but at last declines, promising her kits will be raised in Clans. Pebbleshine bids farewell to Milo and Olive, and after they leave, the queen feels her kits moving inside her belly, for the first time. She believes that it would be impossible for her to find SkyClan now, but she knew where they would go: the lake. However, Pebbleshine regains her confidence, knowing StarClan is watching her, and she has come so far.
