This is sort of a random chapter, but kits will be kits x)


Chapter 3: Just a game

"I am Snowstar! Now bring me a mouse!"

Flamekit rolled his eyes, "Since when did you become leader?"

"Since I said so," Snowkit mewed, as though this were an obvious fact.

"Well can I at least be deputy?" Flamekit asked, starting to play along.

"How? You're merely a kit!" Snowkit mewed in astonishment.

Flamekit rolled his eyes at her, "So a kit can be leader, but not deputy?"

"A kit, leader? I am no kit, I'm a full grown warrior!" Snowkit mewed, jumping up from her nest to stare down at Flamekit. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"If you're a full grown warrior, then I am too!" Flamekit mewed defiantly. "I will be Flamestrike! The greatest Thunderclan warrior ever!"

Snowkit looked at him with an expression of shock and horror, "A cat can't choose their own name! Only the leader can choose their name!"

"Fine, what do you wish to choose as my warrior name?" Flamekit asked.

Snowkit sat for a moment thinking, "Hmm.." Snowkit suddenly looked directly at Flamekit and exclaimed, "Flamedirt!"

"Flamedirt?" Flamekit squeaked. "That's mouse-brained!"

Snowkit shook her head slowly, "You would dare defy your leader?" She looked around for a moment, her eyes setting on a cream furred kit, "Cloverkit! Guard this traitor!"

Cloverkit padded over towards Snowkit and Flamekit, "How come I don't get a warrior name?" She mewed.

Snowkit paused for a moment, "You will be known as Cloversong!" She declared.

"Thank you Snowstar," she bowed her head in respect, then her eyes set on Flamekit, "Come on prisoner, I must guard you."

Flamekit glanced around nervously, suddenly seeing the black furred kit watching, he called out, "Ravenkit! Come help me!"

Ravenkit sprinted over and tackled Cloverkit away from Flamekit. "Sister, you will surrender!"

"Never!' Cloverkit squeaked as she threw her brother off of her, she then preceded to attack Ravenkit.

Flamekit turned his head towards Snowkit, "Well Snowstar, your warriors won't help you now!"

Snowkit merely let off a huff of amusement, "You think that was my only warrior?" Snowkit nodded towards the grey and white she-cat sleeping peacefully.

"You would disturb a sleeping queen for a mouse-brained game?" Flamekit looked horrified, "I'll see you in Starclan."

"Oh, fine. I guess we don't have to bring Hazeltail into this." Snowkit mewed in defeat.

Flamekit glanced towards the entrance of the nursery, "Let's go get some prey!"

"Okay!" Snowkit squeaked as she jumped up to follow Flamekit, with Cloverkit and Ravenkit still play-fighting in the background.

The two kits headed towards the fresh-kill pile.
Flamekit reached it first and started dragging a blackbird down from it, "Want to share this?"

Snowkit nodded eagerly and immediately snatched the blackbird from Flamekit's claws.

"Hey!" Flamekit called as Snowkit ran off, his paws thudding on the ground as he chased her around the camp.

Snowkit suddenly came to a halt as a pale grey she-cat emerged from the nursery.
"Snowkit, what are you doing?"

"Playing," Snowkit mewed innocently as she stared at the cat.

The she-cat rolled her eyes at Snowkit's innocence.

Flamekit raced past Snowkit and stood directly infront of the she-cat, "Dovewing, she stole the blackbird from me!"

Dovewing let out a purr of amusement and gave her kit a swift lick of the head. She then looked towards Snowkit who was holding an over-sized blackbird in her jaws, "Share that with Flamekit." She ordered.

Snowkit rolled her eyes in annoyance but nodded her head anyway.

"Good," Dovewing mewed as she headed toward the fresh-kill pile.

Snowkit dropped the bird on the ground for a moment and stared at Flamekit, "Now that was no way to talk about your leader!"

Flamekit rolled his eyes at Snowkit's mouse-brained game.

Snowkit looked innocently at him, "No need to get annoyed, it's just a game."
