Dustkit prickled her ears. Yes, everything was right. The timing was
perfect. She craned her neck and peeked outside the nursery. The mooon,
almost half-full, hung in the sky, shining amongst the stars, the
ancestors of Dustkit.
Smiling wickedly to herself, she looked
about her. The gentle snores of her nursing queen, Spottedtuft, sounded
nearby and her adoptive siblings, Dovekit and Plumkit, were asleep, too.
She quietly stepped over their limp tails and snuck outside, placing
her pawsteps carefully as to not disturb anything.
She hoped and
prayed that her birth mother, Firefern, would not awaken. Dustkit did
not dare to look into the warriors' den to make sure; it would be even
worse, as Firefern had excellent hearing. Holding her breath and moving
as slow as possible, she crept safetly past the warriors' den. She let
out a breath, and crawled out of the clearing.
Free! She was
free. Choosing an arbitrary route, she headed left. The dark trees were a
bit creepy, but Dustkit only flattened her ears, determined not to be
afraid. Her ancestors were watching.
Wait. Her ancestors were
watching! What if they punished her? What if they somehow told Firefern?
What if she was dreaming Dustkit had escaped? What about a prophecy?
What would Bramblestar say?
Then, she shrugged. She'd heard
millions of stories from her friends that they had all snuck out before.
Then again, they were all tom-kits. Whatever. She was better than them.
She would not get caught.
Determined and more sure-footed now that she was alone, she set off at a rather brisk pace. Soon, the smell got strange.
A
strange smell! This one smells putrid. What is it? An invader? Should I
go warn Bramblestar and Firefern? What would they say? How would I say I
know?
Then, she heard scuffling. Looking up, she saw
another kit nearby, around the same age, with glowing white paws. The
invader! "Hey!" Dustkit called out sharply. "What are you doing here?
This is MidnightClan territory!"
(ooc: That's so interesting! Maybe they could meet up sometime too ^^
P.S., Dustkit HAS crossed the border herself...)
