Maple woke up, stretched in all length and got up, not feeling what had happened. Feeling smell of his wife’s mark, he breathed in, trying to understand, what she “writed”. Blizzard was not so very literated, bau she gave her thinks of her marks good. “I am gone in the cave through the right tonnel. I am all OK”, — sniffed the he-cat. Deciding to check the cold right tonnel of the cave, Maple ran as fast as he could and after a quater of circle he turned left and ran to his beloved. Soon he suddenly started to walk slower and sniff. “Blizzard, where are you? It is time to get up!” — meowed Maple loudly. “Why are you talking so loud on my ears? I almost began a deaf she-cat!” — said Blizzard, hiding her feelings. “Oh, sorry me, I didn’t know…” — apologised the he-cat with his lonng tail. “Don’t worry,” — she forgave him. — “Let’s go to have a breakfast?” “I have just thought about it,” — he said. The cats ran down, turned right and ran to the Crystall. There layed the eagle and the dead plant. “I learned that pregnant she-cats must eat oat, it is healthy,” — assured Maple his blue-eyed wife. “Really? — she interesed. — But we thought edible plants were inedible, thinking the cats of another patriarchies lied us all along and we can get sick” — telled Blizzard the belief of the Patriachrat of Unknowns. Decided to try the oat, she closed her eyes, put head down, opened mouth, picked and chewed the plants and gulped a part of oat. The blue-eyed he-cat realised from wife’s lookings that is very tasty. But Maple turned his accurated head right to the exit of the cave. He looked sadly. “What has happened?” — asked Blizzard her sad husband. “No matters, — he started. — I’m just missing my family. They live nearby from here, about three circles to go to their dwelling,” — told the dark-grey he-cat with the blue tint. “Well, you can go there just in case,” — suggested the wife. “Okay. But, perhaps, there will be a long way to hide finally from the Patriarchat of Unknowns and their confederates the Patriarchat of Eagles and the Patriarchat of Pets, — recalled Maple about danger of run after them to Blizzard, showing she is an offspring of the runaway and he is runaway. — A walk will go about day and a circle,” — he calculated. The cats went to the eagle’s carcass, took parts of meat and ate them after a few moments. Blizzard went behind the Crystall and jumped up on a ledge at which she looked and layed there. Maple went out of the cave.Chapter III

Blizzard woke up and felt another someone warm than Cryslall. The dark-grey husband slept laying, eagle’s bode was nearby. She didn’t surprised about eagle, but there was a strange plant next to it. Maple’s wife looked at the plant suspiciously, took a part of eagle’s wing, cleaned it out of feathers and ate with its bones.
“Perhaps, he didn’t sleep all night, — gueseed wife, looking at her husband. — He can give a rest, I’ll wake him up later. But plants… I don’t know, what I can do with them. Why did he took them?”
“There is dark and cold, but safely too in the right tonnel of the cave” — she remembered Maple’s words.
Then pregnant she-cat marked wall, sendidng a message to Maple: “I am in the right tonnel of the cave, don’t worry about me. Blizzard — to Maple.” And she went into the dark and after a half of circle, turned round. After that, when she did not go to the dead end of the right tonnel, she stopped, layed and began to enjoy of cool weather.
