Drip drop. Drip drop. Drip drop.

Two kittens were sitting outside just mere paw steps away from the warmth of their dens but instead choosing to sit in the rain watching the drops fall onto the leaves and roll of the tip falling down like a string of transparent pearls.

'Hey rainkit'

'Yeah'

'Do you think we'll be great warriors one day?

'Of course I will,' the little she cat boasted puffing her chest out, 'you'd be use much use as a pebble.'

The little fluffy brown kit said nothing just stared out at the grey skies with watery green eyes.

In the distance a tiny bird was perched on a small branch singing softly as it flittered from one place too the next ruffling its feathers in the cold and tugging at a small leaf that was stuck in its feathers.

'Hey sparrowkit,' Rainkit sighed 'I was joking you know? You'll be a great warrior.'

Sparrowkit turned and looked at her shyly.

'Not as great as me of course but great all the same' she mewed playfully giving him a teasing nudge that sent the young kit off guard and he fell straight into a muddle puddle dragging rainkit along with him.

The two kits dissolved into giggles, nearby a little squirrel dove into a pile a leaves with a cheerful squeak.

We'll be friends forever right?
