Chapter 4

The leaders looked up, nodding their heads. They leaped off the high rock, their large paws crunching the pine straw.

The other cats followed, looking back up and padding away like nothing happened.

Foxpaw flicked his long tail, looking down on Beetlekit. The brown and cream tom looked up at Foxpaw, getting up, "Come on, let's find someplace to rest." he meowed, prancing away.

Foxpaw stared after him, 'Starclan cats rest?' he thought to himself, getting up and following the small kit.

Beetlekit let out a yawn, his little pink tongue lolling out. He quickly shut his mouth and slipped his tongue back in, his small tail flicking on the pine straw.

Foxpaw looked up at the night sky, 'Was it always night here?' he thought to himself. The dark, navy blue sky seemed to sway as he walked the white stars shook and twinkled.

Foxpaw looked back down, now paying attention to where he was going.

Beetlekit slipped through the green bushes that surrounded the huge clearing, Foxpaw followed, closing his eyes to avoid the bristles of the bush poking in his eye.

Once both of the toms slipped out of the bushes, Foxpaw opened his eyes again, seeing the large pine forest that he saw earlier. He glanced upwards, staring at the brown bark and the green pines. Foxpaw sat down to admire the scenery, smiling.

The dark navy blue sky continued to sway, even though Foxpaw was sitting still. The sky stopped swaying, and instead went still.

Foxpaw tilted his orange head to the side and looked back down, Beetlekit looking at him, smiling, "its pretty." he meowed, padding beside Foxpaw. Foxpaw stopped tilting his head and looked back up to the pretty sky, "It sure is." he answered, flicking his long tail over his paws.

Beetlekit flicked his tail, "I'm gonna go collect some good pine straw and moss, okay?" he mewed, racing away.

Foxpaw flicked his tail against the pine straw on the ground, "And he couldn't pick any off of the ground here?" he meowed to himself.

The orange tom continued to look the area up and down. He tasted and smelled the air, 'There is water nearby.' he thought, flicking his tail.

Beetlekit ran back, his mouth full of moss, "Would you like me to help?" asked Foxpaw. Beetlekit nodded his head quickly, setting down the moss and kneading it on the ground.

Beetlekit stopped kneading the moss and turned around, looking at Foxpaw, "Follow me and help me collect!" he mewed, racing off. Foxpaw ran off after him, his orange and white paws skittering across the ground.

Foxpaw noticed Beetlekit suddenly stopping,scooping up some pine needles, turning around, then almost smashing his face into Foxpaw's legs.

Foxpaw stopped as Beetlekit quickly apologized, "Oh, Sorry, Foxpaw, I wasn't looking where I was going." he meowed as quickly as he could, then weaved through Foxpaw's legs and back to where they once were.

Foxpaw scooped up some moss and pine needles with his paw and raised it to his mouth, chomping down on the clump. He turned around and began to pad back to the clearing that Beetlekit had picked out to rest.


Dawn of the first day.

Beetlekit shook his head, poking Foxpaw's side, "Are you awake yet? I can't wait to explore more!" the brown tom let out a gigglesqueal, his paws dancing on the ground.

Foxpaw flicked his ear, getting to his paws and shaking his pelt of the pine needles, "I am now. Great Starclan, was I that hyperactive when I was a kit?"

Beetlekit shrugged, "I don't know, I'm off to go explore some more and play with the other kits! Byebye!"

Vruuum.

And with that, Beetlekit raced off into the forest as fast as his little legs could go. Foxpaw flicked his ear, hearing his stomach let out a loud, horrid gurgle, mixed with a growl.

He was hungry.

He couldn't remember the last time he was hungry. Could cats get hungry in Starclan? What's going on?

Foxpaw flicked his tail, getting up and moving forward.

"Hi again!" said a familiar voice.

The orange and white tom turned around, seeing a happy Mosspaw with a gray squirrel at her feet.

"I knew you would be here! Anyway, I already ate, here's a squirrel." Mosspaw meowed, pushing the squirrel forward with a single silver paw.

Foxpaw nodded his thanks, leaning his head down and gobbling up the squirrel. Mosspaw let out a giggle, "Did you EVER learn proper manners?"

Foxpaw let out a giggle, finishing the squirrel.


Yes, I know, Majora's Mask reference.

/laughs at myself./

Anyway, I apologize for not uploading. The reasons are...
1. I was visiting Pennsylvania.
2. I was lazy and didn't bother with the story o3o.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this extremely stupid chapter, and it's stupid because it's mostly filler.
Kill me now.

Anyway, Mogwai outttt.
