Chapter 22
Autumn just managed to swim back into consciousness when Fall placed a sopping wad of moss on her head. The cold water felt nice. She was on Fall's big nest in the abandoned building. Her whole body ached and her stomach felt queasy, but in a weird way.
"What-what happened?" Autumn asked weakly.
"I'm not sure. You just toppled over after eating a few bites," Fall said.
Autumn started to sit up but Fall pushed her back down with a paw. "It's alright. Rest."
Autumn shook her head. "How can I rest when I can't stop thinking about you?"
Fall leaned in and whispered, "I love you."

Autumn was in the moonlit clearing again, the leaves rustling as the breeze whipped around her. The scent of snow was strong. Winter was about to come.
Something rustled in the bushes and Autumn turned around, ready to fight. Instead of a wolf or Fall, Autumn saw an orange cat with purple eyes and white wings step out. It was an exact copy of herself! Three little kits stepped out from behind the Other Autumn, one a light orange tabby with black bird wings, another almost a golden color and white wings, and the last one looked exactly like Fall.
Autumn stared, confused about what was going on. Then the Other Autumn stepped forward and stood face to face with her.
"Take care of them," the Other Autumn said, then disappeared along with the kits.
Autumn stood there for a few moments before she realized what was happening to her, and her morning sickness had been the effect of something she never believed would happen.
.............................................................
Autumn gasped, awaking in Fall's nest. Fall rushed over. "Hey! It's me! Calm down! Easy!"
Autumn calmed down, still shocked at the news she was about to give to Fall.
"Are you okay?" Fall asked worriedly.
Autumn sat up weakly. "Oh Fall!"
"What?"
Autumn took a deep breath before she said, "I'm pregnant."
