Happy Birthday Kit!
Summary: Kit Cloudkicker's 13th birthday is coming, but he thinks everyone has forgotten about it. Boy, is he in for a big surprise
Kit Cloudkicker woke up and looked out the window. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. Nothing could ruin this day. Especially when his birthday was a day away. Kit quickly got dressed and hurried downstairs.
Rebecca Cunningham was sitting at her desk looking at a huge stack of papers, trying to figure out how she was going it all done so she could spend time with Kit tonight. She soon recognized Kit standing in front of her desk. "Oh, hello Kit" she said. "Hi, Ms. Cunningham! Hey do you know what tomorrow is?" Kit was excited, hoping Rebecca hadn't forgotten. Rebecca didn't answer right away. She knew all right. But she didn't want to spoil the surprise everyone was planning for the young cub. They were planning a surprise party at Louie's bar. So she lied. "Oh, Kit, I'm sorry. I totally forgot tomorrow was your birthday" she said in the sorriest voice she could manage. Kit sighed. "That's OK. Have you seen Baloo?" he said. "He's polishing the Sea Duck" Rebecca answered. Kit hurried outside. Baloo never forgets anything he thought.
Baloo was almost done polishing the plane. "Hey, l'il britches" the older bear said as he hopped down from the plane. "Hi Papa Bear. Please tell me you know what tomorrow is" Kit said. "Thursday I believe" Baloo said. "Besides that" Kit said, sounding annoyed. "Well, what other day can it be?" Baloo asked shrugging. "My birthday" Kit said. Of course Baloo knew too, but like Rebecca, he didn't want to spoil the surprise for the young cub. "I'm sorry Kit, I forgot what date your birthday was on" Baloo lied. "I told you when we first met" Kit said. "Kit, you know me. I have a bad memory" Baloo said. Kit sighed for the second time that day. He thought today would go perfect. "Where's Wildcat?" he asked. "I think I saw him fixing your airfoil" Baloo said.
Wildcat had just finished repairing Kit's airfoil. It was polished until it gleamed in the light. "Hi Wildcat!" Kit said when he came in. 'Oh, uh, hey there, Kit" Wildcat said. "Wildcat, surely you know what tomorrow is?" Kit said. Wildcat scratched his head. "Nope sorry, I don't" he said. Of course he was lying too. Kit wanted to get mad, but not on the day before his birthday. "OK, I guess I'll go sit on the dock" Kit said sadly.
Kit sat on the dock and stared at the water that reflected from the the sky, which had the color of the setting sun. Baloo came out. "Hey, Kit. Let's go to Louie's and have a smoothie or something. It'll cheer you up" he said. "Well I have nothing better to do" Kit said standing up. Baloo flew the Sea Duck to Louie's bar. They both walked in. For some odd reason, the lights were off. That's funny. Louie never closes this early Kit thought as he flipped the switch. Just then, citizens of Cape Suzette jumped up and yelled, "SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIT!" Kit was speechless. Then he looked at Baloo. "You mean, you guys knew it was my birthday the whole time?" he asked the older bear. "We wouldn't forget your birthday kiddo" Baloo said. Rebecca walked up. "That's right Kit. We'll always remember your birthday" she said. "Then how come you guys acted like you forgot?" Kit asked. We didn't wanna ruin the surprise" Wildcat sais. Louie came by with a birthday cake. "Happy birthday, cuz" he said, placing the cake on the table. Kit was a little nervous, but he didn't care. He out it aside and blew out the thirteen candles. Everyone cheered. Kit knew this was goin to be the best birthday ever and that this would be the day he would never forget.
