Again, I'm at home. Bored. So on with the second chapter! But first, the replies to the reviewers! :D
Cinderstar377: Thanks! Dimkit is actually based off a roleplay cat of mine and Beekit was supposed to be the original main characted but I've switched everything up. As for Mistkit, I had to think of a third she-cat and I couldn't think of something else creative :/
DahliaStarr: Why, thank ya, miss. I actually have been thinking of a story involving Beekit for awhile and had the major plot line on Word on my other laptop, but now that I don't have it, everything will be from scratch :3 Hopefully you stay with me!
"Cedarkit, get off of your sister!" mewed the newest addition to the nursery. Willowfire had been trying her hardest not to reveal that she was carrying Redstar's kits, but once her stomach was almost touching the ground, the secret was out of the bag. It'd been a moon since she had kitted and the nursery was beginning to seem full. Bluekit was still his quiet self and Yellowkit had began to rough-house with Dimkit and Beekit, while Mistkit just watched. Cedarkit and Jewelkit were often fighting and that's all you would hear from the nursery.
Cedarkit made a grunting sound and got off of Mosskit. "I wish I had a brother instead of her!" He spat at his mother. Willowfire narrowed her eyes at the dark ginger tom, "StarClan gave you a sister to calm you down. If I had had another tom, who know's how crazy this place would be."
Mistkit smiled to herself before standing up, "Willowfire, I could take them out to play mossball." She offered.
Willowfire wrinkled her nose, obviously trying to figure out the pros and cons. "Well, alright. Just don't get in the way of any older cats." She mewed. Jewelkit may be calm, but Cedarkit made up for it. He was crazy!
Mistkit exited the den and waved her tail, motioning everyone to come outside. Dimkit, Beekit, Yellowkit, Cedarkit and Jewelkit all followed her out, but then she frowned. Her eyes shifted to Yellowkit, "Where's Bluekit?" The grey tom shrugged, "You know how he is. Never wants to do anything besides sniff the moss.." He almost seemed to have a sad tone to his voice before his yellow eyes lit up and he went to get the moss ball that they had played with on a previous day.
"Yellowkit, throw it to me first!" Cedarkit demanded. Just because his father was the leader, the little tom thought he ruled the clan right along with his father. Unfortunately for him, Yellowkit threw the ball to Mistkit. Her eyes lit up as she hooked it with her left forepaw and somewhat threw it to Dimkit.
Dimkit laughed, "That's how you throw a moss ball?" She guffawed. "Let me show you how it's really done..." The white and black she-cat patted the ball down with a paw before hooking onto it with two of her claws, took a step back and chucked it towards Jewelkit, hitting her in the head. Jewelkit shrieked and stuck out her lip. "What was that for?"
Cedarkit puffed out his chest and padded up to Dimkit, trying to touch noses with her, but his size was half that of Dimkit's. "You hit my sister on purpose, you bully!" He tried to tackle the she-cat, but it was obvious that Dimkit let herself fall over to lighten the tom up. A young laugh came from Jewelkit as she too attacked the older kit.
"Cedarkit! Jewelkit! Get off of Dimkit!" All the kits turned to see Willowfire padding towards them with a stern look on her face. "To be great warriors, you have to start acting like one." Cedarkit frowned and narrowed his eyes, "But we're just kits!" His mother shook her head, "No 'buts'! Come back into the nursery." She mewed, shuffling her two kits back into the nursery.
Beekit turned to Dimkit with a raised eyebrow, "Did you put a beetle in her nest or something? She's kinda grouchy..."
"She's grouchy because she has to be." Beekit looked up to see who it was. Redstar. She lowered her head and turned to face him. "As a kit, Willowfire lost her brother to green-cough. There weren't any other kits yet, so she was all alone. She just wants both of our kits to grow up together and unhindered," The large golden tom explained. All three she-kits nodded. Yellowkit wasn't paying attention, he just looked at the nursery. It seemed as if Redstar understood the tom's sadness, "I know that you're a moon younger than Dimkit, Mistkit and Beekit, but I'm going to let you have your apprentice ceremony with them." Yellowkit nodded before speaking, "Is it because Bluekit is going to be Appleberry's apprentice?"
Redstar nodded slowly, "Yes. He'll one day make a fine medicine cat, too."
Yellowkit sighed, "I know... I just wish it wasn't him. I want a sibling I can train and battle with." Redstar touched Yellowkit's back with his large, fluffy tail and said, "I know how you feel. Appleberry left the nursery even before we were to be apprenticed and we grew apart. Now that we're older, we are close once again. Everything will turn out just fine, trust me, Yellowkit."
The small grey tom nodded, "Alright. Thanks, Redstar." Mistkit could tell that Yellowkit had listened to their leader's short story, but he still wasn't happy about his brother's decision. Beekit nosed the smaller tom as Redstar padded off to the nursery, "Just think about it, we're practically siblings already! We get to have our ceremonies together and we get to train together!"
Dimkit smiled real big before squealing, "I can't wait!"
I'm sorry that that was so short -_- I just thought a filler chapter would be nice right thurr. The next chapter will have their apprentice ceremonies, along with the updated alliance list.
Review, review, review! Again, all ideas are welcomed :D
