Path of Stars/Chapter 6

==Chapter description==
:Gray Wing asks Reed if he's sure that Star Flower's kits are coming, and the silver tabby snappily confirms. The gray tom protects the queen from a monster, and offers to rush back to camp for help. Gray Wing feels pain in his lungs and sees Jagged Peak, Sun Shadow, Mouse Ear, Holly and Pebble Heart, telling them Star Flower's kits are coming. They go to find Star Flower and Gray Wing follows, for he knows the way. Holly offers for him to lean on her for support, which he does. Gray Wing leads the way to the ditches near the Thunderpath, and calls for Pebble Heart when he realizes he and Mouse Ear went the wrong way. 
:They reach Star Flower and decide that she should be carried back to camp, and the others help Star Flower get to safety. Gray Wing sees Lightning Tail and Leaf between the trees, and the two toms inform Gray Wing that they chased the rogues off. He informs them of the early kits. Gray Wing is reminded of Clear Sky by Leaf, and goes to find him. At the bottom of the slope, he hears his brother's voice and sees Wind Runner, Tall Shadow, Thunder and River Ripple behind. Gray Wing tells Clear Sky about Star Flower's early kitting, which is a shock to him, and they rush off to help. Thunder asks if Lightning Tail and Leaf are ok. 
:Gray Wing hears Star Flower panting, and Clear Sky tries to comfort his mate, flinching as pain strikes her. The others try to soothe Star Flower, and she gives birth to two she-kits and a tom-kit. Pebble Heart feels her belly, wanting to learn more about kitting. Clear Sky looks at his kits with pure love, and Gray Wing feels he one day wants to feel the love his brother feels now. Tall Shadow allows the kits to stay at her camp until they are stronger. Clear Sky thanks Gray Wing for saving Star Flower and her kits, and asks why they hid the plan from him. The gray tom tells his brother he would have rushed ahead of the plan if he knew where Star Flower was, and Clear Sky thanks Gray Wing, telling him he will always be grateful.
