    Faintkit


    ~~~


    With her stubby legs and small stature, she was sure to seep into the hearts of any cat that saw her. But, to other animals, like foxes and eagles, she was prey. The kit was only a moon or two old, and she could barely walk. Her head being a 'dead-weight' caused her to constantly fall on that 'large' head of hers. But, her head fit perfectly with her body shape.
    She wasn't even sure where she was headed, but the smell of something familiar drew her in that dirrection. Cats... She thought, allowing a helpless squeal to escape her throat. She wasn't great with talking. Frankly, she hardly knew how to speak, but she always tried her best.

    Two cats tumbled through the undergrowth, yowling and laughing loudly. Their paws pounded the forest floor and threw up leaves and twigs. The sounds were growing louder and finally, the two apprentices burst out in full view, still mewing happily.


    Flurrypaw dropped to a crouch, gray-and-white tail lashing, amber eyes shining, and aimed a swipe at Axelpaw.


    Axelpaw ducked away, letting out an exhilirated laugh, teardrop-shaped markings under his eyes wrinkling with his grin. Then he paused, fern-green eyes lighting on the stumbling kit. His ears pricked up immediately. "Hey," he called. "What're you doing way out here?"

    Her eyes raised to the large cats, and she mewled out, scared, but also happy. She hadn't seen such a familiar shape for moons. Her small body trembled as the wind shook the leaves, and nearly knocked the kit over.
    She wasn't strong, nor would she most likely ever be, but, that is just her 'build'. Her ears leveled out at the sides of her head as she slowly recovered from her near-fall. She was ultimately scared at this point. What would these cats do to her? What where they even saying? She didn't understand all these strange words.

    Flurrypaw blinked, startled for a second. She hadn't expected to run into such a young kit on her territory. Then the tall, gracefully lithe she-cat straightened up. Her eyes were gentle as they swept down over the kit. "Are you all right little one?" she asked, her soft gray-patched white pelt stirring gently in the wind.


    Axelpaw collapsed into a sitting position, abruptly bored. He twisted his head to swipe a pale pink tongue over his deep red fur, smoothing it down. His snakelike tail curled neatly over his soft forepaws and the black M-shaped mark on his forehead tilted slightly as he turned back and raked his gaze over Flurrypaw. "Why mess with it?" he demanded, almost snapping. "It looks like it can barely walk, let alone answer you."

    Her ears went back, her tail between her legs as her gaze fell to the ground. Her blue eyes showed her sadness, and how alone and cold she felt. But determination tensed her muscles. She looked at the tall she-cat, and craned her neck to look up. "Faintkit." she forced out her name.
    She looked at the tom, and her ears went forward slightly. "Faintkit." she repeated, her tail popping into the air. "Faintkit!"

    "Flurrypaw, Axelpaw, what are you doing?" The young calico warrior yowled from several fox-lengths behind before bursting through the undergrowth. "What trouble have you gotten yourselves into this time?" He fixed both of them with a stern glare, not even taking notice of the little bundle of fur on the ground.[/fancypost]

    How do you get that thing? I don't know how people do it! xD


    IC:


    She squealed at the new cat's arrival. His sudden inburst scaring the kit, causing her to turn and flee. But honestly, she wouldn't get far. She was to weak and tired.
    She soon collasped to the ground, huffing and puffing as she sneezed. To any cat right now, would most likely be wondering where her parents were. But even if they searched, they wouldn't find them. Faintkit had been abandoned here in this huge forest, so, really, where else could she have gone but towards the noises and scents of familiar animals?

    Snakefang heard the soft pounding of paws on the forest floor. For a second, he thought it was a mouse and dropped into a hunting crouch before scoffing at himself. The pawsteps were too heavy to be a mouse. It must be a...kit? The tom opened his mouth slightly, smelling the foreign cat scent. With a tail slightly twitching, Snakefang followed the trail, finding an exhausted she-kit. "Um...Flurrypaw, what's a kit doing on our territory? It's not ours right?" Of course it's not ours, you mouse-brain! Does it smell like ThunderClan? he scolded himself

    IC:


    She went into a flurry of coughing, her body contorting as she did so. But she soon stopped, her eyes weary and her body shaking. It had been some time since she had one of her coughing fits, and it was still painful.
    She tried to stand up slowly, but couldn't find the strength, her ears going back as she was about ready to give herself up to StarClan's ranks.

    Snakefang's eyes fluttered in panic, and without waiting for a reply from the apprentice, he grasped the kit by the scruff and darted away to the ThunderClan camp. He was a blur of colors, racing through the forest, undoubtedly scaring away precious pray, until he burst through the bracken tunnel that led to the camp. The warrior bounded into the medicine cat den and dropped the small kit among the soft moss, his eyes swimming with worry. [/fancypost]

    She looked weak, and also ready to pass out. Her stomach rose and fell shakily, giving more coughs as she rasped for breath now. It had been a moon and a half, she was only two moons old, and it seemed this day might be her last.

    ~Flamepaw~



    ~Lilykit~


    ~~~~


    Flamepaw brushed his tail along the forest floor, sighing as he turned around, once again, to see his little sister trying to follow him. The small calico she-kit was hiding behind a tree, hoping that her big brother wouldn't find her.


    "Lilykit..." he exhaled, slightly irritated. He was supposed to be hunting, but the stubborn kit had been pestering him all day. "One; that's the worst hiding place I've ever seen. You're tail is sticking out and I can see your back legs. Two; I've already told you, I'm not going to play hide-and-seek with you!"


    Lilykit mewled in protest and leapt out from behind the tree. She was about three moons old and desperate to become an apprentice. She sat on the ground.


    "I not goin' back!" she hissed. Flamepaw rolled his eyes tiredly. This might take a while.


    Suddenly, he jumped when he heard the loud pattering of paws and turned to see Snakefang rushing past, carrying a kit in her jaws.


    "Woah!" he cried, stumbling backwards a little. "What was that all about?"

    ooc: -lecough- Snakefang is a tom...xD


    Snakefang pestered the medicine cat endlessly, after his mouth was free to talk. "Does she have greencough? Blackcough? Will she make it through the night?" The medicine cat twitched her whiskers in slight annoyance and handed the kit some poppy seeds and coltsfoot. [/fancypost]

    Faintkit took them obidiently, before she felt sleepy. Her eyes slowly closing as she fell prey to the poppyseeds affects. Her breathing seemed normal now, and she looked at ease while she slept.
    She dreamed of the parents she never knew, trying to piece together what they looked like. But not only that, she was trying to figure out why they had left her. Was it something she had done? Or did they just not want the helpless kit?

    Snakefang paced outside of the medicine clearing, earning curious stares, mostly from the apprentices, wondering what their old denmate was doing. Every once in awhile, he would peer in and inquire about her status but would probably be chased out afterward. He settled on his paws, his eyes trained on the medicine cat's den. How in the world did the little kit end up in ThunderClan territory? She smelled like a Clan cat but his somewhat dull nose couldn't detect which Clan exactly. He sighed, frustrated, before continuing his pacing. [/fancypost]

    Ooc; Oh right, sorry! ^///^''


    Ic; Lilykit blinked, curious about the kit that Snakefang had been carrying. She tilted her head to the side and plodded back towards the camp entrance.


    "Hey, where do you think you're going?" he yowled, not wanting Lilykit to go wandering off into the forest like she usually did. The last time, it had taken half a day to find her.


    "I goin' back!" she announced over her shoulder and skipping into the camp and towards the medicine cat den. Flamekit rolled his eyes and followed reluctantly - he wasn't really interested in the kit that Snakefang had been carrying, but he felt responsible for whatever Lilykit was doing, considering their parents were dead and they had no other siblings.

    Faintkit woke up a while later, blinking over her eyes slowly. She got to her paws. Assuring her balance before taking steps forward. She raced forward as the cat with her tried to stop her, her tail in the air as she tumbled out of the medicine cat den. She looked around startled as many cats gazes met hers. She didn't like this...
    Her tail lowered, and her back arched a little, her fur bristling with fear and uncertainty.

    Snakefang's ears pricked as soft pawsteps sounded from the camp entrance. Lilyit entered with Flamepaw following in soon after. They probably saw him dashing through the forest like a rabid cat. A tiny kit stood paralyzed and Snakefang scrambled to his paw after realizing that it was the kit he just saved. "Hey! The kit survived!" he meowed excitedly. [/fancypost]

    Faintkit jumped a little, before looking at Snakefang. She raced over to him, climbing up his leg like a snake without her claws and buried herself into his neckfur, shivering from fear at all the other cats crowding in this weird place.
    "Faintkit!" she squealed, climbing onto his head and sprawling out there.

    [fancypost bgcolor=; width: 300px; border: 0px dashed white; border-radius: 50px; letter-spacing: .5px][justify][font=georgia]ic: Carefully and warily, the fainthearted cat crawled along the edges of camp. She would not go to the center of camp. Not ever. There were too many cats there, too many dangers and scary strangers. Last time the blue and white kit went there, she was scared out of her skin when a cat jumped out to frighten her. It worked, obviously, and not only was she alarmed, but pretty dang embarassed, too. It won't happen again, she reassured herself silently.


    A little kit, maybe a moon or so younger than her, tumbled out of the den, and Notekit instinctively jumped and let out a surprised squeal. Okay, so, maybe it will happen again... she thought, wincing. Catching her breath quietly, the she-cat watched the foreign kit crawling all over Snakefang.
