Another (A)typical Day (Open)

[heika]

Breezekit laid on her side, completely relaxed, in front of the nursery while other cats shot her curious stares. She had been there since she woke up, and she had no plans of moving any time soon. Breezekit was observing the camp, or, more specifically, the busy entranceway where warriors and apprentices were walking in and out. All of them acted as though being able to leave the camp was a basic right and not a privilege, leaving a pot of envy simmering in Breezekit's chest. The kit was so close to, and yet so far from, becoming an apprentice and Breezekit wasn't sure if she could wait any longer. And, to quell her rising impatience, she liked to watch the other cats exit the camp, walk through the entranceway and suddenly find themselves in a whole new world Breezekit had never seen before. Some were just heading out, leaving to patrol the borders to hunt, while others, such as the dawn patrol, were just returning. A warrior Breezekit did not recognize entered the camp as well, blinking blearily as they complained, "Going out at dawn is the worst. I was so tired I almost fell asleep standing up!"


Breezekit couldn't help but huff jealously. "I wish I could go outside too," she muttered to herself. "It must be nice to explore as much as you want to."

The pale gray she-cat swaggered around the camp as if she had just saved the clans. Soon she was going to be an apprentice! Her pretty brown eyes fell upon a smaller kit who was staring at the entrance longingly. I'm gonna herself them know what it's like to be six moons old. She obviously wants to know. Sweetkit sat down beside Breezekit and mewed, "Don't worry, you'll be an apprentice soon. The territory is really awesome". Before she could stop herself, she had blurted out her biggest secret. I hope she doesn't ask how I know. I can't tell her about when Dovepaw took me out. Then everyone will nag me about it.

Breezekit shot Sweetkit a confused glance. "How would you know?" the long-legged blue spotted tabby asked, sitting up to face the other she-cat, who looked too small in stature to be an apprentice just yet. Then, putting two and two together, Breezekit whispered in wide-eyed reverence, "No way, have you been outside of camp before? You have to tell me what it's like."

[nomstar]

She looked down at Breezekit in panic. What should I say? "You have to keep it a secret," she hissed at the younger kit, "but I did go out with Dovepaw once. He said it would be okay". Relaxing slightly now, she curled her striped tail around her paws. "There are huge sweeping hills that seem to go on forever, and the sky is so bright and wonderful. It looks like you could walk right up to the sun and touch it. There are some little trees and bushes. but I probably shouldn't tell you more". She turned away and began to groom her white dusted pelt. Now recalling what it had been like, she smiled. I can't wait to go out again. Although, it's better to go when you're not allowed to. That's what the cool cats do.

Breezekit absorbed everything Sweetkit told her like a piece of moss as, with every word, the landscape in her imagination grew more and more vivid. She could practically feel the grass of the moors brushing against her pelt as she saw herself running beneath a clear, endless sky. "Wow," Breezekit sighed in wonderment. "I can't wait to see that." She really couldn't; even the thought of running freely through the Whisperclan territory caused her to shiver in excitement. Looking back at the older kit, Breezekit spoke without much consideration, "Do you think Dovepaw will take me outside if I asked?"

She purred in amusement as the little kit gazed up at her in wonder. She felt so relaxed and easy around other kit, maybe one day she would be a mother herself. My kits would be smart, pretty and nice. Just like me. Her brown eyes widened as Breezekit suggested leaving the camp again. Yes! That would be so cool. Standing up, she padded over to the entrance to camp. I have a better idea. Who needs Dovepaw? We can go by ourselves. She beckoned Breezekit with her tail before bounding out.

[heika]

Breezekit followed the other kit hesitantly before stopping in the entranceway. Glancing around quickly to make sure no other cats were looking in their direction, Breezekit hissed, "Sweetkit, come back! We're not allowed to leave the camp, remember? Thrushstar is going to get mad at us!" Although Breezekit was no pushover, she didn't want to place herself in a position that may jeopardize her chances of becoming an apprentice. The spotted kit scuffed at the ground nervously, watching Sweetkit walk away.

The ground was Dovepaw's main focus as he paced, tail lashing in usual impatience. The day was ending was there was no sleepiness for the apprentice, only his feelings of agony for the waiting of what morning would bring. After going out with Sweetpaw, The adventure had been fresh in his mind as of lately. Luckily, he got to train with Cloverwish unlike the runaway kit. With a rumbling hunger in his belly his eyes flashed around camp. He had only intended to go to the freshkill pile but an familiar kit and another kit were going out the camp. That stupid kit's head is filled with mousedung! If anyone catches her... He quickly walked out of camp, his paws touching ground few times before easily catching up to the kits. he hid in anyplace he could, clumps of grass, behind trees, rocks, following the kits.

"Sweetkit, let's go back already!" Breezekit pleaded, looking around warily as she followed the other she-cat. The sun was setting and the moors were turning darker and darker. So when the she heard a faint rustling found behind, Breezekit couldn't help but wonder what could be hiding in the blackness of the night, stalking the two kits as they walked on, unaware. She really regretted bringing up the subject of leaving the camp. I wanted to see Whisperclan's territory, but not like this!
