Mousekit leaped out of their nest, energized and ready to play.
However, they didn't have many avaliable playmates.
Briarstar and Perchspot's kits were too little to play with, and they were the only ones in the nursery.
Oh well, they thought, they'd just have to find a warrior to play with.
Rosesong was usually their favorite...
Luckily for them, they caught Rosesong coming back from patrol, carrying a squirrel from his mouth.

Rosesong! Rosesong!

Rosesong (he/him)
Woah, woah, hey. What's up, Mousekit?

The older warriors gave Rosesong a glance as the kit jumped all over him, but he ignored it, his fur hot with a flash of embarrassment.
He quickly dropped his prey on the food pile, nearly tripping as Mousekit ran under his legs.

Mousekit (he/him)
Can you teach me how to hunt today?

Mousekit stared up at him with huge, hopeful eyes.
Actually, I kind of wanted to... Rosesong glanced at the older warriors, who exchanged a sympathetic glance with him.
He'd wanted to eat with them today, but he supposed it had to wait now.

Rosesong (he/him)
Okay. I can teach you lots of things. Like, for example, the hunting crouch...

Rosesong moved into position, tucking his paws and tail in perfectly, wiggling his haunches slightly as he prepared to pounce on a nearby leaf.

Mousekit (they/he)
I already know about that!

Mousekit wailed dramatically.

Mousekit (they/he)
I want you to take me out to hunt!

Rosesong shook his head.

Rosesong (he/him)
No. Absolutely not.

Mousekit was too young, they could put themself in danger.
Mousekit pouted, then ran off to the side of the clearing of the camp.
Rosesong followed more slowly, wanting to make sure they were alright.
Mousekit flattened their ears, hunched over and keeping their tail close and stiff.
The two sat in tense silence for a while.
Finally, Mousekit spoke.

Mousekit (they/he)
Do you think... I'll ever grow up? Will I ever get to be a warrior?

Rosesong froze. It was a question he didn't know the answer to.

Rosesong (he/him)
M-Maybe! You know, I've seen cats around here change in a lot of ways, so I wouldn't completely lose hope...

It was true.
The cats around him had changed.
He was convinced some even grew a bit physically, but he couldn't confirm it.
Cats not growing up once they reach StarClan was a rule he knew, but maybe things were different here...
He wrapped his tail around the kit comfortingly.

Rosesong (he/him)
No matter what, I won't lose hope, okay? You'll become a warrior.

Mousekit nodded quietly, a small purr escaping them.
As Rosesong gazed at them, he thought, maybe they already had grown a bit.

Somehow, Haretrail had ended up with a new cat under their paws.
They'd helped them the other day, and he hasn't left them alone since. He would be so close he'd nearly trip on their tail, and Haretrail could feel his fur brushing against theirs when they slept.

Haretrail (they/them)
No.

Haretrail grumbled.
Here, in StarClan, they weren't as important as they were in life. They didn't need to be made even more insignificant by another medicine cat. They didn't care if their intentions were selfish.

But, but what if somebody gets hurt and somewhere else somebody else gets hurt and there aren't enough of us?

What kind of scenario is that?

Honeyshade (he/they/she)
Please?

Haretrail ignored her, and was saved by Briarstar calling a meeting.
They raised their tail, happily taking the opportunity to walk away.
Honeyshade followed close behind, too close, but at least they had an excuse to ignore him now.

It was a ceremony for Mousekit - Now Mousepaw.
There was a speech about how he had grown up, and how he had beat the odds of StarClan, it surely was emotional... but Haretrail couldn't listen well when they were so distracted by how close Honeyshade was standing to them.
Haretrail pricked their ears forward as Rosesong, Mousepaw's new mentor, leaned to touch noses with him. But, even then, they could feel Honeyshade's eyes burning into them, and it filled them with bitter annoyance.
Just as they turned, half-ready to swat Honeyshade with a paw, Briarstar's voice caught his ears.

One more thing, while everyone is gathered here. Haretrail, would you let Honeyshade become your apprentice?

You know, I used to worry so much about expectations and running out of time.

Flamelight commented to Larkpuddle as the two stared out at the camp from a ledge.

Now that I've run out of time and have all the time in the world, it feels like I have hope between my paws. I feel lighter, and I can finally live my dream of raising kits, even if they aren't my own. Mousepaw's been doing so great with his apprenticeship, and Burnkit and Lambkit have grown so big already...

Larkpuddle nodded. It made him so happy to see the white and ginger cat with the StarClan kits who come into their Clan, and how gently and eagerly they take them in. It was like they were a natural at it.

Larkpuddle (he/him)
It's great that things are going so well for you, and the kits are wonderful, Flamelight. I wonder a bit, why cats are able to grow up here... I'm really glad! But it makes me think, I'm not sure if it's this place, the cats here, the idea of being in a structured Clan like they were in life, the...

Larkpuddle sighed. He was letting himself stress over it again.
He could come up with many, many theories in his head, but at the end of the day, cats were happier for whatever is happening here.
That's what really mattered, right?

Larkpuddle (he/him)
...Sorry. Anyway, Rosesong's a great mentor, right?

Flamelight nodded.

Flamelight (they/them)
He was a good pick. Briarstar chose well. Which reminds me...

The two's gazes drifted to the medicine cats' den and they each let out a soft purr of amusement.

Flamelight (they/them)
Haretrail wouldn't agree with Briarstar's choice there. They and Honeyshade squabble like foxes!

Larkpuddle felt a warm glow for the other cat. He enjoyed with his whole being their late talks like this, where they would just talk on and on about the usual Clan business, but he was convinced they always could make it entertaining.

Larkpuddle paused, his ears flicking.
Wow, I really like this cat. I'm really happy we're such good friends.
Was he sappy? Maybe. He didn't care, though.
His Clanmates have commented more often than he realized, too, about their closeness. They would ask pushy questions... It's not their business what our relationship is.
For now, he just enjoyed the company of a close friend. Someone in the Clan he could really rely on...

Maybe he also liked being a babysitter, he thought.
Whenever they were out or busy, he got to watch the kits, and they loved him.
Perchspot and Briarstar's adopted kits, and Lambkit and Burnkit, made the nursery very full, which just meant more playmates for him.
He knew he could justify giving badger rides to the kits all day to Briarstar if he just called it exercise...

...No, it wasn't just that he liked watching kits. Flamelight themself made him feel warm and comforted and safe in a way he hadn't felt in a long time.
If he'd felt this way when he was alive, those memories had long faded.
He loved just to bask in their warmness.
At this moment, he realized, he was prepared to give up anything for this cat.
What kinds of feelings are these?
Whether they were platonic or romantic, Larkpuddle just wanted to be with this cat... That's all he wanted. Being with them every day, making them smile...
...Yeah, that's all he wanted.

"Nightscruff will never be leader!"

As Briarstar made her way to the heart of StarClan's hunting grounds, she heard yowling.
Quietly, she dropped onto a crouch and moved closer, pricking her ears and hiding herself behind a bramble bush.

Why not?! Nightscruff is a good warrior who has worked his whole life to uphold the warrior code and follow StarClan. What other choice do we have?! Your Clan is so sick, we have to make a decision, Lizardstar!


Lizardstar...
Briarstar flipped through her memory. That was the current leader of TwistedClan, wasn't it?
...Ah. Not anymore, she supposed, if she was here.

Ha! Nightscruff isn't worthy. The only cat worthy was Rainshade, and she's dead now too!

But we have to do something. TwistedClan can't just be leaderless!

That's too bad. They're traitors who hated their leader so badly, they can figure it out. They wanted this!


Briarstar tensed up, her fur bristling. Was she serious?
She had only come here to check in on things, and clearly things were... Not good.
I'll have to do something, She realized with a huff.
Things were bad before, but without a leader or a deputy, would TwistedClan be destroyed by the sickness?
