Graytail

dreams and playing always go together

The black and gray stiped she-cat blinked her green eyes. She had jsut finished off a scrawny vole and was givingn herself a nice cleaning. She licked eh rlips and chest, drawing a paw over he rears. Streching her long slnder body, GRaytail got up and trotted over to the nursery. Maybe a kit wanted to play! StarClan kewn that she was board out of her mind! she looekd inside the mursery and sighed. Kits were so cute! She wished she had her own kits, but she didn't have a mate! Slipping into the nursery, she looked aound. The sounds of littler mews came from small bodies. THe scent of persiocs kits fileld her scent glands. IT was almost overwhelming! Almost. But sh eloved the scent s much she didn't care.

[Brightkit]

Brightkit looked up from her nest of moss and blinked her eyes open. A warrior! A ThunderClan warrior, who deserved her warrior name one way or another! Brightkit emidiately got up, shaking her white and brown pelt. She made her way near the enterance of the nursery, and stared up at Graytail with her bright amber eyes. Would she want to play?

for our dreams play themselves out every day

Graytail looked down at the adorible Brightkit. She smiled an dbent down , toching her nose to the kit's. Hey, Brightkit, wanna do something? She asked softly. She had always had a soft spot for kits.

[Brightkit]

Brightkit smiled. "Like what?" Brightkit mewed, her paws tingleing with eagerness. She lifted her small, light pink nose to drink in Graytail's scent so that she could remember her scent by name.

so dream a dream

The warrior starigtend up, yawning. She exposed her fangs of white and her tounge of pink. Sh eblinked back a few more yawns and shook her gray and black striped pelt. HEr heart beat a little faster at the thought of playing. Sure, she was a warrior but hey! She could still not act her age! Graytail smield down at Brightkit as she reached her pink nose up. It helps if you open up your mouth to expose you scent glands. Like this! WIth that, she widened her mouth and breathed in. She scented fresh kill coming in and being taken and the drifting scents of other ThunderClan cats. Hey! Wanna practice hutning positions? She asked, bring her gray cranium down and smiling, her kindhearted smile reaching to her green orbs.

[Brightkit]

Brightkit smiled, her mouth agape as she scented the air. Graytail was right, and so many scents mingled with the smells of milk in the nursery. Brightkit closed her mouth and smiled again, pleased that she knew something helpful now. Brightkit lifted her backside and lowered her front side, stretching her paws out in front of her as she let out an enormous yawn. She stood up and looked at Graytail with her bright amber eyes. "Sure!" Brightkit mewed, excited to be offered that chance when she was only a kit. She licked her white fore-paw with her bright amber eyes focused on her paw, carefully gliding her tongue over the white fur on her paws. "When can we start, Graytail?" Brightkit asked, trying the best she could to hide her excitement. She couldn't wait to start practicing her hunting techniches. She could be a great hunter one day, maybe even one of the best! Brightkit closed her eyes as she imagined herself in the forest, older than she was now, her white and brown fur slightly ruffling in the light breeze coming through the trees, carrying the scent of prey, that could be fresh-kill. It was a mouce, scuttling around on the forest floor, finding and nibbling on a seed. Brightkit shook her head lightly, getting the lovely image out of her head, and getting ready to listen to what Graytail might tell her.

The ninetenn moon old warrior she-cat purred as she watched Brightkit close her eyes. SH elike dthe way this was going! Maybe, when the time came, sh ecould mentor teh tiny kit. But that was later. Now was the time to live for! We can start now, but lets go out of the nursery, Graytail suggestied. She didn't want to hurt any of teh kits!

[Brightkit]

"Great!" Brightkit meowed. She was almost an apprentice now, and she couldn't wait to actually be able to hunt for her Clan, go out of camp, go on patrols, and maybe, if her leader thought she deserved it, go to gatherings! She was the most excited kit in the nursery. But Brightkit knew that, when she was finally apprenticed, she'd have to be the best she could, to try and work harder than any apprentice before her, especially if she wanted to go to a gathering. How exciting would that be? She could just imagine herself, at her first gathering, walking into the huge clearing filled with cats from all of the different Clans, with their new scents, and talking with apprentices from those Clans. Of course, she'd never tell any secrets from ThunderClan to any apprentice of an enemy Clan, no matter how trustworthy. Fourtrees must be the greatest place in the forest. But what about the Moonstone? She'd never seen it, but she would, one day. She new that every apprentice must go to the Moonstone at least once in order to be a warrior, right? It must be so beautiful, Brightkit thought. "All right," Brightkit mewed when Graytail suggested to go out of the nursery. Brightkit understood; they didn't want to disturb anyone! Especially Orchidwing -- she'd just had her kits; Brightkit's foster siblings! Brightkit padded out of the nursery, and felt a light breeze and the smell of newleaf on its way.

Graytial swung her banner high, padding to a shady spot secluded from teh others. She shifted her weight from paw to paw and looked around for Brightkit. Her mual brightned up in a smile whne she saw how excited the kit was. She wondered who her mentor would be...? Okay, then, BRightkit. Show me what you know already. We will start from there. Graytail sat, waitng for Brightkit to show her what she already knew. I remember how happy I was in teh days before my apprentice cermoney! she thought as Brightkit aporeche dher.
