The Three Legged Beast [tagged]

-Doesong-

The sun was waning, swooping closer and closer to the horizon. Doesong had just come back with an afternoon patrol and was about ready to fall over her paws. The terrain of the mountain always tired her out after a while and today was no exception. The greenlaef heat didn’t really help her out either and by now, she had half the mind to get some sleep. but, to her surprise, she was quite that tired. No, instead she was actually feeling a bit hungry. So, she adjusted her course and trotted towards the fresh-kill pile.

There was plenty to choose from, so the warrior snagged a bird and meandered towards the other side of camp, near the nursery. Doesong liked to sit near the kits den because they always seemed to say such amusing things to each other. Plus, the older ones were just starting to gossip about things and she just found that plain adorable. She was sure to sit more to the side so she didn’t get run in to if a bunch of kits decided they wanted to run out and throw some moss around or attack each other. Now that would be dinner and show.

Doesong ducked her head and began to pull off the feathers from the bird, taking care not to actually inhale and of the small down feathers because that would just result in an unpleasant and ugly coughing fit. After that was done, she was surrounded by little feathers that she knew she would have to clean up. Or maybe she would just pile them for the kits and apprentices to mess around with. Of course, that would come later. As of now, her rumbling stomach demanded to be fed. While she ate, she nodded greetings to those who passed her. It wasn’t long before she heard a little ruckus in the nursery.

Foxkit hobbled out of the nursery as fast as his three legs could manage to take him, he wanted to have an adventure today! he was going to find something exciting and awesome to do, and he was going to have lots of fun doing it no matter what the other kits said, he could do anything he wanted to so what if he didn't have four legs like everyone else, that didn't mean he couldn't do stuff

[Trickle]

The little ruckus she had heard suddenly made his way out of the nursery. Doesong looked up from her bird and watched the kit for a moment, noticing he was hobbling along quite awkwardly. The she-cat tilted her head for a moment and then realized the little kit didn’t have all four legs! She blinked in astonishment, how did that happen? The kit didn’t seem too hindered by the fact he was missing a leg, he was trucking along with a silly little look on his face, about to pass the young warrior. ”Hey,” She mewed, trying to get his attention. ”Little kit, come here.” She sat up and gestured quickly with her paw.

First step was learning this little guys name. Doesong prided herself in knowing almost all the cats in Talonclan, but some kits managed to escape her personal census. She pushed the remains of the bird aside and licked her lips, cleaning her whiskers of any bird bits or blood that could have been there. The warrior wanted to look as friendly as she could, for first impressions were the most important thing. Even with little three legged kits.

Foxkit turned suddenly at the new voice, wobbling dangerous as he didn't have a forth leg to balance himself out, but he was undeterred by the fact, he just waited a moment before heading toward the warrior curiously "yes? what's a matter?" he tilted his head a little bit sitting down in front of her, his missing right hind legs absence even more obvious in this position

The kits response made her smile, he was an alert little fellow that was for sure. She offered him a kind smile, ”Nothing is wrong, I just wanted to know your name.” The warrior crouched back down to be eye level with the kit as he sat down. Doesong felt her eyes wonder once again to his missing limb. When he sat it made it very obvious that the missing leg did hinder him a little. For he was sitting at a slightly crooked angle.

OOC: Sorry its short D:

"I'm Foxkit" he said puffing his chest out a little "and I'm going on an adventure" he looked around "where do you think would be good to explore? I heard lots of neat stuff is out in the mountain, is it true?" he tilted his head slightly as he asked her

[Trickle]

Doesong let out a little laugh as Foxkit proudly introduced himself and then stated his purpose of the day. "Well, its a pleasure to meet you, Foxkit. I'm Doesong." She blinked and put on a thinking face as he asked where a good place to explore was. Surely she couldn't take this kit out of camp yet, perhaps when he was an apprentice she would. "Hmm... I think that its not about where you exploe, but how you explore it." She sat up and looked around.

"This place could be the den of a beast that attacks our clan." She looked down at him, "And it's up to you to defeat her!" The warrior rose to her feet and whipped her tail back and forth playfully.

Foxkit jumped up, wobbling a moment before he shifted his center of gravity back into a better place "what kinda beast, my daddy told me there's all sorts of things out there, like these big black and white things and red quick things, I'm named after the red one see? cause my daddy says I'm going to be just as quick too"
