Runningkit stretched and yawned big. She opened up her eyes at bright sunhigh light. She looked towards Flowerwing's nest and found that no one was there, her eyes wandered to the entrance and there was Flowerwing. Runningkit jumped to the entrance. "Hello!"
Flowerwing jumped a little. "Oh hello Runningkit. I see you opened your eyes."
Runningkit smiled happily. "I sure have! Say where's Whitekit, Petalkit, and Black-kit?" Flowerwing nodded outside to the three kits tackling each other and rolling in the sand. "They are so ruff. Then again so is Brownkit when he's fighting with me." Runningkit smiled a little.
Flowerwing called out to her kits. "Hey not to hard! Don't hurt anybody!"
Whitekit called back: "Okay!"
Runningkit ran back over to her nest and woke Brownkit up. "Hey Brownkit! Get up! We can meet our den mates!" Brownkit jumped up and almost ran Runningkit over. "Hey!" She smacked Brownkit with her paw. Brownkit rolled over and sprang to the entrance. Runningkit jumped onto his back.
"Hey! You two calm down!" Stripedtail lifted her head. "Looks like it takes two mothers to handle you two!" Runningkit got off of Brownkit. Forestkit stumbled to her feet, opening her eyes. "Hey," Stripedtail smiled at her kit's wonderful green eyes.
Flowkit wriggled around at her mother's belly. "Mrr..."
Runningkit looked back at Forestkit. "Hey! Forestkit! Wanna go play outside and meet our den mates?"
Forestkit wobbled towards the entrance and sat down. "Yea sure." Whitekit, Black-kit and Petalkit scrabbled out of each other's fur. Petalkit ran over to Runningkit, making her lean backwards.
"Hey!" Petalkit mewed.
Runningkit smiled. "Hi."
Petalkit stepped backwards. "Oh, sorry." Whitekit and Black-kit walked into the Nursery. Everyone got to know each other, and then they were outside playing.
Petalkit was no match against Runningkit. She had been practicing with her brother all day, but with a nap in between. Runningkit had him pinned to the ground. Petalkit pulled his hind legs and pushed out as hard as he could. Runningkit was launched backwards and she hit the ground with a thump. She got up and shook the sand off. Runningkit lurched forward and with her claws sheathed, tumbled over Petalkit and pinned him to the ground.
Petalkit squirmed from underneath Runningkit and scrambled away. Runningkit crouched to the ground but as she started to jump, Whitekit slammed into her. Runningkit was surprised at how strong he was. Runningkit rolled sideways on the ground. Her head turned quickly to Whitekit. Her pupils became slits. She scrambled up and jumped high in the air. She landed just behind Whitekit. Runningkit took off in the direction she was facing and it just so happened to be the camp entrance. She didn't exactly have the guts to dash out. Whitekit was following her, and gaining. Runningkit turned and her pupils widened. Right when Whitekit jumped, Runningkit dashed under him and ran into Petalkit again.
Petalkit gave a yip of surprise as Runningkit crashed into him. Whitekit turned around and jumped at Runningkit and Petalkit. Petalkit scrambled away quickly but was too late. Whitekit had hit them both, really hard. Runningkit growled. She opened her jaws and clamped down on Whitekit's scruff. Whitekit yipped and ripped himself from Runningkit's hold. Runningkit tried to let go quickly as Whitekit had started to tug but still ripped a few strands of his fur, but he seemed fine, he wasn't bleeding. Petalkit scrambled away from under Runningkit.
Was her mother or father watching them? Would her mother approve of this? It was very rough. But her father might think of it as miniature warriors. She thought about this for a heartbeat but then remembered she was fighting, the thought of being a warrior pounded in her mind. She imagined that she was a warrior fighting off ShadowClan. Whitekit had started to run at her. Runningkit jumped up in the air and landed on Whitekit's back. The two tumbled around but eventually Whitekit got loose from Runningkit.
Stripedtail came out from the nursery. "Hey, you be more careful with each other." She tried to sound as calm as possible, but there was an edge of anger on her voice. Runningkit quickly got out of the dust. Whitekit, whom was usually white, had sand all over him, and so did Runningkit. It seemed that they were all covered in dust and sand. Stripedtail shook her head slightly. "How about you all come in before you turn into sand."
Runningkit snuggled in her nest after her mother washed her, Forestkit, and Brownkit. Flowkit had still not opened her eyes. Perhaps tomorrow. The sun was very low in the sky. The long shadows of the trees casted over the sandy floor of the camp, making it look dark. Runningkit looked around the nursery and realized in the very back was another queen. She did not have and kits though. Runningkit shrugged it off and closed her eyes to sleep.
