Snippet #2388056

Nightfur rolled onto her belly, and scanned the camp from her and Snowpaw's sunbathed rock. She saw all the kits bouncing around, then being dragged back by their mothers to be groomed and fed. She scrunched up her face, wishing she still had a mother to do that to her as well. Then she quickly looked in another direction and saw a mottled tail disappearing into the trees, and her face lit up. She glanced at Snowpaw, and saw he was asleep. She grinned mischievously and sprinted to her special tree to find Kioni.

She got to the clearing without getting lost this time, and bounced over to the tree. She saw Kioni sitting on a branch and clambered up next to him. "Hey Kioni!" She grinned and pawed his ear, one of the few things that wasn't wounded. "Are you better? I hope you are! Ooh ooh ooh! Guess what?! In a couple of weeks I'm going to be a teen like you!" She grinned and sat in her little hollow. She smiled, and groomed herself. "All the others say I have to act more mature now, but I'm not sure I want to." She huffed and flopped her head down. She smiled at Kioni, and batted at his tail. "I'm not supposed to be out here, but someone said they saw the badger running far far away on the same day you attacked it! So they think it might be saferish." She wriggled and got into a comfortable position, ready for Kioni's responses and news from Riverclan.
