Chapter 1
Dawnkit chased Firekit and Tigerkit around camp yowling, "GIVE ME BACK MY MOSS!"
"NEVER SHADOWCLAN SCUM!" Tigerkit hissed through the mouthful of moss. With an irritated mutter Dawnkit gave up the chase.
"Told you they'd ruin the fun." Windkit grumbled as he sat down next to his sister. Tigerkit rolled his eyes and padded back to Dawnkit with the moss in his jaws.
"Here, take the moss, we just wanted to play." Firekit squeaked as Tigerkit set the moss down.
"Dawnkit! Windkit! Get back in here! The warrior's are working on the camp!" Embersong called.
"Aww… ok." Dawnkit grumbled as she padded into the nursery.
"The warrior's were nice to build the nursery first! That flood was horrible! Good thing the rain stopped or the whole forest would have been underwater!" Windkit claimed.
"Yea then you would become a fish! And I would eat you!" Dawnkit yowled crouching down and lashing her tail in the air.
"Don't you dare-!" Windkit hissed before he was cut off by Dawnkit pouncing on his tail. "OWWWW!" Windkit wailed, "SHE'S BITEING MEE!" He yowled trying to swat Dawnkit off his tail.
Danwkit gave a final chomp before letting go, "You don't taste very good." She grumbled playfully.
"That's because I'm a cat, not a fish!" Windkit hissed licking his ruffled tail. "Plus, fish don't taste very good anyways."
Firekit padded over to Dawnkit, "D-do you want to sleep in my nest since you don't have one yet?" he asked, his tail twitching nervously.
"Sure! Thanks!" Dawnkit smiled swiping a paw over her ear.
"No problem." Firekit purred curling up in his nest, Dawnkit beside him.
Firekit woke early the next morning; he yawned and looked over at Dawnkit. Her fur sparkled with the patches of beautiful dawn light coming from the cracks in the nursery roof. I'll always be here for you. He promised.
Firekit watched the cats start to stir. "Why are you up so early?" Gingerleaf asked as she licked her kit.
"Well. Dad looks like he's about to call a meeting. Why doesn't he visit us? He only visits Sparkkit." Firekit frowned.
"He's a strange cat." Gingerleaf sighed.
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather under the high rock for a clan meeting!" Russetstar yowled. He continued once everyone was there, "Sparkkit, you have reached the age of three moons, and it is time for you to become apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Sparkpaw. I will be you're mentor."
A protest yowl rose from the murmuring crowd, "But I'm you're apprentice!"
Russetstar hissed, "Brackenpaw! You will be passed on to Swiftstorm. You will restart you're apprenticeship and trail alongside Sparkpaw."
"B-but I've had two moons of training! I can't just restart!" Brackenpaw snapped, storming to the front of the crowd.
"Leader's word is law." Russetstar snarled simply. With a last failed attempt Brackenpaw gave up.
Firekit sat stunned. B-but Sparkkit's only THREE moons! That's not fair! Russetstar jumped down from the high rock to signal the meeting was over. Lilackit padded over to Firekit, "It's ok, Sparkkit was a jerk anyways." She whispered. "How about going on an adventure to get you're mind off it?" She suggested.
Firekit nodded. "Ok. Let's ask Windkit and Dawnkit if they want to come to!" Firekit mewed suddenly cheerful. He bounced over to where Dawnkit and Windkit were chatting. "Want to go on an adventure with me and Lilackit?" He squeaked.
"Sure!" Dawnkit bounced to her paws, "I know a hole in the nursery that the warrior's haven't fixed yet! Lets go!" she squealed.
"I don't know about this…" Windkit mumbled as he followed the other kits to the hole.
"Come on! It'll be fun!" Firekit urged. With a sigh Windkit nodded.
"It's so squashy!" Dawnkit exclaimed as she poked some mud. "How far do you think we are from camp?" she suddenly asked.
"Quite far, we've been walking for a while." Lilackit mewed.
With a wicked grin Firekit scooped up some mud and flung it at Dawnkit. "You're it!" he squealed dashing away.
"Hey! No fair!" Dawnkit yowled as she chased the other kits. Lilackit stopped and chuckled as Windkit went crashing to the ground. Dawnkit seized the moment and flung mud directly at Windkit's head. With a squeal Windkit was covered in mud. "You're it now!" Dawnkit giggled darting away.
With an irritated growl Windkit staggered to his paws. He waited until Lilackit's gard was down before he pounced. He landed on her back forcing her into the mud. "Got ya!" he purred scurrying away.
"No fair! You can't do that!" Lilackit protested once on her paws.
"Can too!" Windkit flashed.
"Can not!" Lilackit flashed back.
"Can too!"
"Can not!"
"Whatever, I'll be it." Firekit interrupted. He watched the other kits dart away before deciding who to go after. He followed Lilackit until she stopped. He quickly hurled mud at her back. He sped away chuckling, sending mud into the air as he ran. Lilackit shook out her mud-soaked fur. "Let's play a new game! I don't like this." She announced.
"Fine, what do you want to play?" Windkit questioned as he padded back to Lilackit.
"How about we play clan's at battle?" Lilackit suggested.
"Dawnkit and I are ThunderClan! You and Windkit are ShadowClan!" Firekit announced.
"Why do you get to decide?!" Windkit shot a glare at Firekit.
"Let's just play!" Lilackit grumbled.
Dawnkit followed Firekit as he stalked up on Lilackit. "You go find Windheart. I'll take on Lilacstar." He whispered.
"Yes Firestar." Dawnkit nodded before disappearing to find Windkit. Firekit prepared to pounce, but was stopped short because of a shriek.
