Dew shrank away from the bright sunshine, pressing against the warm bodies around her. Opening one green eye a crack, she could catch a glimpse of the dappled forest floor outside of the den. It only lasted for a moment, though, before the body of one of her many littermates rolled in the way, blocking the light, but also obstructing her view of the world beyond. Curiosity sparked inside of her. What was out there? Was there terrible monsters with big pointy teeth? Or maybe-even better-other cats? I'll just take a peek, Dew thought, That won't hurt anybody. She quietly arose, picking her way between her sleeping family. It was harder work than it sounded. Dew would sidestep a paw, then almost trip over somebody's flank. She let out a puff of air when she had made it out of the jumble of fur and bodies. Now, the entrance to the den was only a few tantalizing pawsteps away. Dew let out a squeak of excitement and padded a few steps forward. She froze when her hind paw struck something warm and furry. Groaning inwardly, Dew turned around to see who'd she woken up.

Luce's green eye opened quickly when someone stepped on him "Dew? What are you doing?"

[Deku]

Clarice had been sleeping quite soundly until she heard her kits arguing. Then she woke up, immediately. She glanced over to see Dew and Luce to be the two fighting. Dew was near the entrance to the den. Was she planning on leaving? Well, it wouldn't be that easy to avoid a mother.

"Yes Dew, what are you doing?" She asked, hoping to get it out of the little she-cat.

[Fernstripe]

Dew was about to reply to her brother when Clarice woke up.

"Yes Dew, what are you doing?"

Dew smiled happily at her mother's voice, turning around to see her better. "Oh! I was just-" She cut herself off suddenly unsure if telling her mother this information would be the best thing. You mousebrain! Dew scolded herself furiously, Clarice is not going to let you see a wink of sun if you say anything. "Just going to make some dirt. I'm sure Luce can accompany me, just in case, right?" She smiled sweetly, trying to sound as innocent as possible.  

[Deku]

'Taking your brother along?' She thought that was weird and almost stopped the she-kit, but decided maybe some bonding time between the two siblings could be good. "Well, alright then. I guess you can go. Just don't stray to far from the den. There are cats out there that wouldn't hesitate to kill a little kit."

[Falcon]

Luce yawned and stretched until his small young body shook "Alright I guess come on then Dew I could use a chance to get some air"

Words:

~Liza~

The tiny, golden fur kit opened one eye sleepily, noticing that Luce and Dew were all ready awake, and so was their mother. Taking a big yawn, she pushed herself up with her stumpy legs, and just trotted over to the kits and her mother. I wonder what they are talking about. She thought carefully, her tail flicking at the tip as she stared at them with emerald green eyes. Settling down next to Luce, who towered over her, she glanced up at her mother, then to her surroundings, which she was still adjusting to.

~Locke~

Locke sleepily opened his vibrant green eyes, his sharp-pointed ears perked and twitching as he realized his mate and a few of his kits were awake. With a big, sleepy smile and drooping eye lids, he pushed himself up with thickly muscular legs, and padded softly to stand next to his mate. With a quick, affectionate nuzzle to his mate, Locke reached down to give every one of his kits that were awake a soft lick."What have you silly kits been trying to do?" He asked, his eyebrows elevated, but a silly grin on his face.

Archie
Archie's quickly snapped open at the talking in the den and he jumped up and stretched,yawning. He quickly realised that they were probably going to explore so he tried to hide his excitement as he said "I need to go make dirt as well" Unfortunatley he was terrible as seeming calm,he was kinda jiggling around and jumping up and down but then again it probably looked like he really needed to make dirt. He ran for the entrance,planning to make a quite exit and get out into the world.

Kora
Kora looked up from her game of cat and mouse which she had been playing with a rock in the corner and paused her leaping and tagging. Her ears pricked as she looked at Dew who she was pretty sure was about to sneak out,she nearly called out when Clarice started getting up but was to late and just observed as Luce and Dew ended up just saying they were heading outside to make dirt,she narrowed her eyes at the excitement in Dew's and and had to prevent a snort when Dew's pathetic excuse of Luce coming outside to accompany her to make dirt came out.
Kora looked at the entrance longingly then made a snap decision.she padded up to Clarice "I also need to make dirt" She then padded beside Luce and Dew,she purred in amusement at Archie's sad attempt to keep his excitement hidden

[Deku]

"Hmm. Must all my kits leave at the same time? It's almost as if you were sneaking out." She mused quietly. "Fine, but if you're not back before sunhigh, you're not leaving this den by yourselves for a moon." She padded back to her nest with Locke, looking back only once to make sure the kits get out safely. Then she nudged her mate softly, hoping to wake him.

[Fernstripe]

Dew nodded shortly, turning slowly towards the entrance. At first she'd thought she would just take a look around, maybe feel some sunshine, but now the whole litter wanted to go... Dew knew how mischievous her siblings could be, and wanted no part in it. She almost turned back, but before she did, her paws slowed to a stop right outside the den. Dew looked onto the huge world in amazement. Enormous trees rocketed up to the sky, tiny feet made rustlings in the bushes, and Dew thought she could hear the sound of something squawking far away. Should I turn back? I would be safer in the den. but how could I not explore this? Dew debated with herself quietly as her littermates emerged from behind her. 

[Falcon]

Luce dashed out behind Dew "wow! it's so pretty out here" he looked around in amazement

[Deleted]

Kora
Kora nodded at Luce's statement,Definitley better than that boring ol' den'Kora started trotting out,relishing the feeling of soft,cold and refreshing grass beneath her paws,she brightened up,feeling as if she had just grown a little more,gotten a little closer to being an responsible she-cat.She made her way round the right of the nursery like she was heading to make dirt but she was really going around so they wouldn't see her sneek out,she looked behind her,checking to see if the others were following.

Archie[/I]
Archie sprinted out after them and raced after Kora,every fibre in his body ringing with anxiety and excitement,they were going to finally leave this dung hole and go somewhere interesting!He was tired of the boring walls of the den and ready for something new,he looked at the rest of the camp,identifing the dens with the information his mother had told him.The healers den,which he had been to once before after he'd tried to do a stupid stunt,the fledgling den,the assassins den,the hunters den,the leader den,and the rock standing in the centre of the clearing
