Deadkit raced across the flat land that was his Clan's territory. He could see up to the Pointedstones from here, which was very far. Of course, he could go wherever he wanted- and no one noticed. He had gone up to Pointedstones before - it didn't take that long, there was no one to stop him. He had met other cats, who also seemed to live in a Clan, though they called themselves a Tribe. He had even traveled to the farthest side of ForestClan territory, to the Loner Tree. It's where a lot of their former Clanmates hung around. He met a lot of ForestClan loners as well. They were all suprisingly friendly. Maybe it's because I'm a longfur? Oh, forget it, he thought, spotting camp and racing towards it. He barreled through the wall of the nursery, ramming into his mother, Pouncecloud. Honeykit was nearby. "Deadkit! That's the third time today you've broken that wall. What is up with you?" Deadkit let out a forced laugh. "Nothing! I'm just hyped up for the next Gathering!" Pouncecloud stared at him, her eyes slits. She then stood up, shook her pelt, and muttered, "I'll go get more brambles..." Before exiting the den quietly with her tail lashing.

Honeykit suddenly pounced on Deadkit, only touching him with a soft claw. He fell over, loving the touch and laying there for a few long moments. During these moments, Honeykit asked him, "You've been sneaking out again, haven't you?" Deadkit nodded slowly, still on the ground. He suddenly jumped up, snapping out of his dazed state. "You haven't told mom, right? Or... Juniperstar...?" Honeykit shook her head no. Deadkit shuddered, tuning out everything out except the running water flowing through the middle of the camp. Juniperstar... According to the... E-elders... She's the feircest Leader we've ever had... He shuddered once more at the thought of the dead elders. Juniperstar seemed to not care for the elders. Their medicine cat had left them. Their injuries were too serious. "Deadkit!" Honeykit shreiked, crouching over him. He then noticed he was on the ground. "Oh thank StarClan you're awake. You blacked out!" She spat, guilt pulsating through her eyes. She must think it's her fault. How? It's my body, not her's. "That's the second time this week!" Honeykit continued, shaking nervously. "D'oh! If only we still had Fernweb! She could tell us why." Deadkit snorted, laughing. "You're more protecive than mom!" Honeykit blushed, tucking in her tail. "H-hey, it's not funny..." She walked to the other side of the nursery, looking back at Deadkit with anger in her eyes.

Deadkit turned, hearing Polarpelt's friendly mew. "Hey, you two!" She pokes her head into the nursery, spotting the small, kit-sized hole in the wall. "Deadkit, again? Pouncecloud was just telling me about it. You have to stop," she muttered backing out of the nursery. "I have to go on patrol." She padded away, her tail high up in the air. Suddenly, Honeykit races past Deadkit. "Can I come this time?" Her squeak caused Deadkit to roll his eyes. They were going to become apprentices shortly, what's the point of asking? Polarpelt held the kit back with her tail. Honeykit squeaked in defiance, before being suddenly put into the nursery by their mother. Pouncecloud sat down by the broken wall without a word. From what Deadkit could tell, she was weaving the extra brambles into the wall. Deadkit's mind was far from the nursery, though. What is up with me?
