"Hawkfoot...are you asleep?" The Maine coon queen looked up at the young kit and yawned a bit. "What is it Shadowkit? As you can see I need my beauty sleep." Shadowkit carried over the crow carcass to Hawkfoot and mewed happily. "Well,well...look what my little Shadowkit has brought me today.Keep it up and the next step will be hawk hunting." Shadowkit shyly smiled and prodded her paws a little. She knew it was against clan rules for a kit to go hunting alone,but hunting birds! Her father would have her paws if he ever found out. She knew she shouldn't ever be near Hawkfoot but she couldn't help it. The clan always called her names like kitty-whore or cat-slut and sometimes even fouler. Shadowkit didn't exactly know what the names meant but she knew that they were very bad. One day she over heard her grandpa telling her mother that they saw her having sex with a dog and some other stuff like they should ban her from the clan and she could taint the young ones. But Shadowkit knew that even though everyone bad-mouthed her that if Hawkfoot knew that someone was willing to give her a chance then maybe she'd turn a new leaf. So, she took it upon herself to secretly spend time with Hawkfoot, help her with anything she needed, and above all listen to her and her ways and ideas. Shadowkit did admit that some things that Hawkfoot would say did make her uncomfortable at the start but once she started spending more time with her it all passed over. In fact she knew that Hawkfoot liked having her around because she spent more time with her than her own daughter. just the mere thought of that made Shadowkit grin even more. Hawkfoot noticed Shdowkit's grin and twitched nose in annoyance. "And what are you so happy about?" Shadowkit giggled and rubbed her ears. "Nothing, it's nothing." Hawkfoot wanted to question her even more but decided it wasn't woth her time. "Shadowkit, don't you think it's time you go back and join the other kits? I'm sure that if you don't show up soon the adults will get suspicious and find out about our little "meetings". You wouldn't want that would you?" Shadowkit immediatley shook her head . "NO!That would be horrible." Hawkfoot chuckled and pulled Shadowkit toward her. "Well then you'd better run along then, I see you tomorrow ok?" Shadowkit nodded lightly. "Ok...get lots of sleep." Shadow kit ran as fast as she could trying not to get ideas about how Hawkfoot looked at her before she left.
The clan warriors set up alittle place for the kits to play while they went and scavaged food. It was mostly a bed of leaves and grass with two dead mice as toys for them to play with. Two kits were in a heated game of tug-of-war with one of the mice while Stripekit being very bored,played with the leaves a little. Hoping it was her parent's pawsteps she heard she lifted her head and saw her sister approaching. "Hey Shadowkit! where've you been?!" Shadowkit nudged her sister and smiled."out." Not satisfied with the ansewer Stripekit stood up to face her sister eye-to-eye. "Specify "out"." shadowkit hissed in annoyance at Stripekit. "I was just out OK?!" "Yeesh shad, don't get your whiskers in a knot. Besides we all know you were with Leafkits's kitty-slut of a mother." Shadowkit was now really angry and turned to face the orange tabby kit. "Shut Up Fangkit! You don't know anything!. And you Leafkit, how can you sit there and let him talk that way about your mother?!" "...Well...it's true." Leafkit quietly mewed. "See even the clan slut's daughter agrees she's a whore and I still don't get why you're going around pretending she's a saint. She's taken more naps with other animals besides cats in our entire lifetime!" Stripekit then heavily hit Fangkit upside his head. " Really do shut up Fangkit.There were so many wrong things about that sentence that you should get bad-named. And Shadowkit not that I usually agree with Fangkit but he's right you shouldn't go hanging around Hawkfoot like this. You've heard about the things she's done. There's no telling what she could do to you with no one around." That was the last straw for Shadowkit, she growled loudly tried to swat at her sister's face. "FINE! I won't go to see Hawkfoot anymore! There! You happy?!" "Shadowkit..." "NO! Just shut up and leave me alone! All of you! I can take care of myself." Shadowkit then rushed away from sight with tears streaming from her eyes. "...I hope Shadowkit will be alright...Stripekit just say the word and I'll FORCE my mom to stop meeting with her." "No...it's ok Leafkit.I'll go and talk to her later." Fangkit rolled his eyes and sighed. "I really don't see what's the big deal. All it is are bitchy mood swings." And with that Fangkit got ready for the beating of his life from Stripe and Leaf kit.
