"You can't catch me!" "Oh, yes I can! Oof!" Mistkit stumbled and fell flat on her face, causing Stormkit to burst out laughing. Roseshade let out a sigh and smiled at her kits. She had soon learnt that they could be real trouble together-Last week, she had caught them pulling on stray tails behind the warrior den, and they had constantly been creeping into the apprentice den. Now they were starting a new game-creating a clan with the other kits. Featherkit, Echokit, Jaykit and Amberkit were all Honeybreeze's kits. They were 3 moons already, whereas Stormkit and Mistkit were just 1 moon old.
"I am the leader of ThunderClan! My name is now Stormstar, and you must address me by my name! I'm going to be just like Firestar, the old leader of ThunderClan." Stormkit growled playfully. "But he's a kittypet!" Echokit protested "And yet he was noble and respected by his clan. Even though he was a kittypet, he grew up to be a true warrior and fought bravely for his clan. He died saving his clan." Roseshade said. Roseshade heard furious whispers: "See! I told you!" "I don't believe you." "Jaykit, you believe me, right?" "Let's go find the elders later, then."
"I want to be deputy! My warrior name is Mistcloud!" Mistkit broke the tension, standing by her brother's side.
"I-I want to be ThunderClan's medicine cat! I will be Featherstream." Featherkit squeaked. Stormkit, Mistkit, Echokit, Jaykit, and Amberkit all whirled around to stare at Featherkit. "Are you serious? Why would you be a medicine cat while you can be a warrior and fight?" Jaykit said. "Yeah! You can protect your clan and even get a chance to be leader!" Stormkit said, shaking his head in disbelief. "I don't care." Featherkit said, raising her head up high.
Echokit snorted-"I am ShadowClan's leader, Echostar!" Jaykit and Amberkit both cried:" No fair! You got the best spots!" "Plus, you have a deputy for ThunderClan, and a medicine cat!" Amberkit pointed out.
Jaykit narrowed his eyes- "Fine. I will be WindClan's leader, Jaystar."
"And I guess I'm Amberstar of RiverClan."
"Warriors, attack!" Stormkit roared. In a flash, Stormkit was tackling Echokit, pinning him to the ground. "Hand over your territory, ShadowClan scum!" He snarled playfully. Echokit, who was not expecting that, bared his teeth and slipped out of his grasp, kicking Stormkit's legs so that he fell onto the ground. Mistkit slowly crept over to Amberkit while she was batting at Jaykit, and leaped, landing squarely on Amberkit's tail, causing her to gasp and turn around, facing her opponent. Amberkit narrowed her eyes and launched herself at her, pushing Mistkit off balance. Jaykit leapt into "battle", holding Amberkit down while Mistkit sprung to her paws and started to bat at her belly.
Featherkit, watching with a horrified expression on her face, turned to her mother, Honeybreeze and said, "Yeah, I'd rather not be a warrior. I've decided to be a medicine cat. Maybe I can be Shinepaw's apprentice! He's nearly a medicine cat, right?" Honeybreeze chuckled, and replied,"I wasn't too keen about being a warrior at first either. And yes, Shinepaw is nearly a former medicine cat~He's 5 moons in."
Suddenly, a fierce yowl came from Roseshade,"Stormkit! Mistkit, stop at once!" Roseshade picked them both up by the scruff and dragged them into the nursery.(Which was not easy, because they were both clinging to their opponents. Roseshade closed her eyes and let out a sigh. "Come on now, kits. Bring yourself back in reality, you're not warriors yet, and most certainly not leader and deputy. You need to apologize, now." From the stern look on their mother's face, Stormkit and Mistkit knew she wasn't joking.
The two kits trudged back to the other four, where Honeybreeze was scolding them. "We're sorry…" They whimpered, afraid of what punishment Honeybreeze would give them. Honeybreeze looked at them, and her gaze instantly softened. "It's okay, you're just a moon old. You'll learn. Unlike these four…" She glared pointedly at them. Mistkit, who had a soft heart, said,"No, it's our fault. We thought of the idea first…" Stormkit nodded solemnly, and Echokit said,"Yeah! Blame them, we got forced!" Jaykit murmured, "We didn't want to!" Mistkit looked at them in awe, probably surprised that they blamed her when she was trying to protect them. The poor she-cat. Honeybreeze raised her eyebrows and exchanged glances with Roseshade-"Kits will be kits."
Seriously though, BOYS! *Exchanges glances with Mistkit, Featherkit and Amberkit* "Yes, BOYS!" We're talking to you, boys. Thats right. (Mist Of Falling Rain, if you see this, yes, I'm delusional. I'm talking to a website...AGAIN.)
