'''Say something, I'm giving up on you. I'll be the one, if you want me to. '''

"Fireheart! Get Yellowfang!" Greystripe screeched.

"What is it?" his flame-pelted friend asked briskly. His green eyes flashed worriedly at the desprate tone in the other tom's voice.

Greystripe shuffled his paws impatiently. "It's Silverstream!" Fireheart's heart stopped. Silverstream was Greystripe's mate, even if Fireheart didn't like it. "Her kits are coming, but it's going all wrong! There's blood," he finished, lashing his fluffy tail. "Please, get Yellowfang!" he begged, then raced back to the Sunningrocks with a flash of grey fur, not seeing how Fireheart reacted.

He skidded to a halt beside the silver RiverClan tabby. "Hang on, Silverstream! Our medicine cat's coming! Hang on!"

Silverstream opened her mouth weakly and moaned in pain. Blood was forming a pool around her hind legs.

Greystripe placed a paw on her forehead. "You can hold on, Silverstream! You can!" His amber gaze flickered toward the ThunderClan forest, where a flame-colored cat was rushing toward the two cats, a silver she-cat limping behind him. Behind her was a dark brown tabby.

''Tigerclaw? Why's he coming!? ''Greystripe thought, enraged. But Cinderpelt was here. Not Yellowfang, but he still trusted her with Silverstream's life.

Anywhere, I would've followed you.

Cinderpelt had an herb bundle in her jaws. She quickly limped over to the pained she-cat and mewed, "Silverstream, I know it hurts, but when I say push, push. Okay?"

Silverstream nodded wordlessly, gasping for breath. Her striped flank heaved desprately.

Greystripe lifted his head to the sky and closed his eyes. ''StarClan, let her be safe. ''He watched in pain as Cinderpelt hissed, "Push!" Silverstream screeched as a kit slid out onto the ground. A dark grey tom.

Cinderpelt snatched up the kit and thrust it at Greystripe. "Lick it. Get its blood flowing."

Greystripe obeyed instantly as Silverstream screamed again, pushing another kit out onto the ground. More blood coated the ground and caked Silverstream's fur. Cinderpelt growled at Tigerclaw, "Lick."

Tigerclaw snorted. "I'm not a medicine cat."

Cinderpelt unsheathed her claws. "Lick." Tigerclaw rolled his eyes and began to lick the second kit, looking disgusted. Glancing at the second kit, Greystripe saw that it was a light grey tabby - just like its mother.

Cinderpelt mewed softly to Silverstream, and Silverstream ate some of the herbs the young medicine cat had brought. Silverstream winced as she wailed again, then went completely still except for the quick rising and falling of her flank.

'''Say something, I'm giving up on you. '''"Silverstream!" Greystripe gasped, abandoning the kit he was licking to stand beside his mate. "Silverstream!"

Silverstream opened one eye, which glowed dimly. "I'm leaving, Greystripe."

Greystripe widened his eyes, feeling a tear form at the corners of them. "Silverstream, you can't..." He squeezed his eyes shut, hoping that she wouldn't die, hoping that they would be together with their kits.

Silverstream closed her eye. "I have to. I love you, Greystripe..." She drew one last shaky breath, and then she was still.

"Greystripe... I'm so sorry..." Cinderpelt murmured sadly.

"No!" Greystripe wailed, throwing his head back to the sky. "No! No! No!"

'''And I am feeling so small. It was over my head I know nothing at all. '''

'''And I will stumble and fall. I'm still learning to love Just starting to crawl. '''

'''Say something, I'm giving up on you. I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you. Anywhere, I would've followed you. Say something, I'm giving up on you. '''

'''And I will swallow my pride. You're the one that I love And I'm saying goodbye. '''

'''Say something, I'm giving up on you. And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you. '''

'''And anywhere, I would have followed you. Oh-oh-oh-oh say something, I'm giving up on you. '''

'''Say something, I'm giving up on you. Say something...'''
