The Life (Tagged, Heatherpaw)

[Deleted]

Aspenkit rolled around in the cool, wet grass, attempting to get the attention of her older brother, Ripplepaw, before he ran off with Mistpaw again. Soon, her gray fur was covered with a bright green coloring, fading into her pelt. She instantly spotted her brother bounding away, and she couldn't help but call to him, attempting to catch his attention. but he just shrug it off, rushing out of camp with his new best friend, Mistpaw. She angrily watched, remembering the days when she was her brothers only attention and play mate. She knew this would happen someday, mostly because Ripplepaw was a complete romantic and was also extremely handsome and charming, but Aspenkit still hoped she would have more time with the big Tom, before he grew busy and she-cat crazy. She sat down in the middle of camp, grooming her now crazy fur, already before Badgerkit rushed over here. @heatherpaw

Badgerkit stood up in his nest with a sigh. It's not fair! All my other siblings got to be apprentices before me... It's so lonely without them... he thought. He walked out of the nursery and blinked at the sunlight before noticing a fellow kit and ran over to her.

"Hi, Aspenkit! Wanna do something? We could play a game!" he exclaimed. "Or we could sneak out of camp..." he added quietly.

Aspenkit grinned with a mischievous gleam in her coppery eyes, excited to play with the older tom. She jumped up, her paws leading softly in the grass, her gray fur still tinged with a slight green.

"Let's sneak out of camp." Aspenkit mewed quietly, so only Badgerkit could here her few words, but any one around them could get excitement and mischievous grin.

"I knew you'd like the idea!" he whispered and smiled. "Hm... Follow me," he commanded and looked around the camp just to make sure no one was watching and he walked quickly to the camp entrance, he and he looked back to make sure that Aspenkit was following. Then, he walked out of the entrance, his heart pounding.

Aspenkit silently sunk her belly to the ground, quickly scrambling after Badgerkit. Her gray pelt brushed the grass and ruffled the grass a good length away from their quick speed. She looked over at her big friend, hulking over her smaller body. They shot out of camp, but Aspenkit quickly caught a whiff of Ripplepaw, and she growled angrily at the thought of her big brother. (BOOM shocking right that there siblings?) @heatherpaw

Badgerkit watche as Aspenkit followed him. He sighed in relief when she made it to him without getting caught.

"What's wrong?" he asked after she growled. She seemed angry for some reason, and Badgerkit was confused. "Did I do something?" he asked, a bit worried he had caused her anger.

"Just my big brother is making me not very happy right now. Don't worry, I'm not even slightly mad at you" She meowed quickly, not wanting to broach the subject anymore than the outline of it. Glancing at him, she couldn't help but slightly grin at her good friend.

Her tail twitching, she quickly trotted forward, her coppery eyes wide with curiosity.

"How could he make you mad if he's not here?" he asked curiously and he immediately calmed down because he didn't make his friend mad. "Ooh, where do we go? There's so many places to go that I've never been before! Well, I've never been out of camp before..." Badgerkit rambled on for a bit.

[Deleted]

Aspenkit glanced at her friend, a smile forming on her lips as he rambled awkwardly on,"Well, my brother has told me about his favorite spot, the Burnt Pine, that's really cool. He told me he would show me it when I become an apprentice." She meowed simply, her big coppery eyes staring at her handsome friend.

"Oh..." Badgerpaw paused for a moment. "Hey, we should go there! Burnt Pine sounds dangerous, it will be an adventure! ... Except, how do we get there?" he asked curiously, not really considering the fact that her brother might be there.

(I think it would be interesting if they got caught by Ripplepaw! ^^)

[Deleted]

((Great idea! And Mistpaw, of course, since Ripplepaw had ran off with Mistpaw, ignoring his sister, which was why she was so mad! :3))

Aspenkit quickly brightened at the idea, her ears sharply owned with delight. She started bounded forward, get coppery eyes bright with her adventurous nature, her tail twitching."Ripplepaw told me how to get there," she meowed loudly, making sure her friend could hear her. She glanced back at her handsome friend, a small smile growing on her lips as her short, gray fur prikled with a strange feeling.

(Oh, yeah! I forgot about that! )

Badgerkit noticed how happy she seemed and smiled slightly. He chased after her, his eyes shining as well. To think that some day I'll be able to explore the forest freely is crazy... he thought in awe as his eyes darted around curiously, trying to take in the new sights.

Aspenkit slowed as they reached their destination, the Burnt Pine. She stared wide-eyed at the beauty of it all, the burnt pine needles crushing as they connected with her paws. Her coppery eyes shined softy as she looked at all of it curousily, right before she looked at the handsome tom following her. As the warm lights of sunlight hit his pelt, she felt a shiver travel up her spine, and her pelt prikle softly.

(Just to inform you, Badgerkit has become an apprentice. ^^)

Badgerkit noticed as the soft grass turned to pine needles and froze as the Burnt Pines came into sight. "Wow..." he whispered in awe. He smiled as the warm sun reached his pelt. I can't wait until I'm an apprentice! but, what about Aspenkit? I'll be an apprentice before her, and then I'll be busy training and not having fun with my friends... the thoughts quickly left his mind.

[Deleted]

(Sorry about the late reply! I've been super busy with school and other reasons lately! @heatherpaw)

Aspenkit knew she would most likely lose her close friend the second he became an apprentice, hanging around the other apprentices and training, leaving the little kit he had been friends with to wonder what happened, but that's why she was so focused on trying to make an imprint on him. To make herself memorable.

The gray she-cat trotted towards the tree, noticing the claw marks indented into the charred bark, strangely hard to the touch. Coppery eyes scanned the tree, to find a massive paw print on the tree, obviously her big brother, who's massive paws matched this perfectly. She couldn't help but press her own paw to the outline, hers barely taking up a third of it.
