Whitelighting padded out of the Nursery, stretching. A smaller kit, black and white, came up behind her, hiding beside her mother's paws. The queen purred and licked the kit's head. "You can go play, sweetheart. They won't hurt you." She mewed reassuringly. The small kit shook her head. She was shy, but curious. She looked at the two cats other than her mother and her. It was tempting for her mother's request, but the kit scrammbled after her snowy white mother. "Flyingkit, your to shy for your own good sometimes." Whitestar teased as she picked a spot that was covered in sunlight. She lay down and watched the warrior and the other kit. Flyingkit didn't answer she went behind her mother's back and lay her front paws on it to see the other two.

Kestralclaw padded over to Whitelighting and her kit. "Hi Flyingkit, would you like to play with me and Otterkit?" the she-cat asked politely. She longed for kits of her own but still she had no mate. Soon enough she would be capable of starting a family in her clan. But until then she would play with the kits of the other queens in the camp.

Whitelighting smiled at Flyingkit, but the small kit ducked out of sight behind her mother. Her little paws were still on her mother's back though. Whitelighting laughed softly. She slid out from under her daughter's paws. Flyingkit shyly smiled at Kestralclaw, but hurridly hid behind her mother's legs again. Whitelighting shook her head. "I'm sorry, Kestralclaw, she's really shy. You can try if you want, but I doubt you'll get her to talk or answer for that matter." She purred. The white queen sat down and looked at her daughter. Flying kit hid behind her mother still. Her eyes looked at Kestralclaw though.

"Well Flyingkit, we were just pretending that we were leaders of clans and our clans were battling each other. Doesn't that sound like fun? You may play with us, I would love to play with you! You can even pick which ever clan you want,'' Kestralclaw said. She really wanted to help this young kit break out of her shy-spell towards her.

Flyingkit stared at Kestralclaw from behind her mother. She murmured something shyly, but didn't repeat it loud enough for anyone to hear. She shrunk down pressing herself against her mother's side so she was out of sight. Whitelighting shook her head, looking at her daughter. "Your so silly." She mewed. Flyingkit looked at her mother. The queen smiled and got an idea. "Kestralclaw? Do you mind watching her while I go talk to the leader?" She purred, looking at the warrior. She smiled at Kestralclaw. She wasn't really going to go talk to the leader... Whitelighting was going to make her daughter socailize now.

"I would be delighted to watch her," she purred. She knew exactly why the queen needed to talk to the leader. To get her kit out to socialize. "Lets go see what we should do next," Kestralclaw meowed to Flyingkit.

Flyingkit stared at Whitelighting. She looked at her pleadingly not wanting to leave her side. Whitelighting gave the kit a reassuring smile and padded off. Flyingkit shrunk down to the ground. She looked up at Kestralclaw. Her eyes just watched her, not moving at all for a moment.

"Shall we go find Otterkit then?" she asked. Some way Kestralclaw was going to get this little kit out of her shell.

Flyingkit just looked at her. She didn't move or answer. Her eyes just stared up at the warrior.

Kestralclaw looked curiously. This is going to be harder than I thought, she told herself. Then with a gentle tail laying on her shoulder, Kestralclaw lead Flyingkit over to Otterkit. "Otterkit, Flyingkit is going to play with us. What would you two like to play?" she asked.

Otterkit had been chasing a butterfly across the clearing and had just caught it when Kestrelclaw padded up to him. The little black and white kit beside her seemed sort of... well, wierd. He padded up to her with his black chest puffed out and a bold look in his blue eyes.
[b}"Greetings, Flyingstar of... um..."[/b] He seemed to be considering this for a moment, his blue eyes sparkling as his imagination clicked.
"WindClan! That's the fastest of all the Clans." He informed the kit. He bounced back and forth, his tail lashing.
"Let's play something fun, Kestrelstar!" He said, bouncing up and down. He looked at Flyingkit and smiled widely.

Kestralclaw let out a purrr of amusement. What a lively kit, she thought to herself. Then she let the imagination gears in her brain begin to run and tried to think of something to play.
"Why don't we pretend to be at a meeting with all the clans?" she asked the two kits. This sounded like fun to her but of course the two kits should chose what they were going to play.

Otterkit's eyes flew wide.
"A Gathering! Yes! Yes!" He yowled, racing around in circles and bouncing every few strides eagerly. Suddenly he tripped on his long tail and landed in a dusty heap of tortoiseshell fur, coughing a bit and staring with surprised eyes at the upside-down image of Kestrelclaw.
OOC: Hehe, that's sooo Otterkit ;D

Kestralclaw stared in amazement. "Calm down Otterkit, or you will hurt yourself or someone else," she meowed. This kit had to be one of the most hyper kits she had ever seen.

Otterkit struggled to his paws then puffed out his chest and that bold, shimmering look came in his eye.
"I won't hurt myself or anybody else! I'm Otterstar, leader of RiverClan!" He yowled, leaping onto a leaf that had fluttered by. He cast a glance over his shoulder and giggled softly.
"Well, not really, but, you know." He whispered in a secretive way. It was every cat's dream to become leader... or at least every kit's. Otterkit had other dreams, but it was cool to just go with the flow every once-in-awhile.

" Just because you are the leader doe not mean that you are all and mighty. You still have to be careful. Remember when you are the leader you are responsible for every cat in the clan," she reminded him.

Otterkit looked thoughtful for a moment. Not just kit-thoughful, but genuinely in pure thought-mode. He blinked and looked up into the sky. She's right. If I ever became leader, I'd be in charge of all the cats in the Clan. They'd depend on me, look to me for guidance. He felt a strange knot forming in his stomach. He looked down at his paws. I can't do that. At least, I know that now. Perhaps it will change. But I don't really want to be leader. I want... He shook his head. No, that would never happen! He was being foolish. Otterkit smiled slightly up at Kestrelclaw, all his energy seemingly gone.
"Yeah." He murmured somberly.

Kestralclaw watched the realization of her statement hit Otterkit. "But that does not mean we cannot pretend to be leaders still!" she meowed.

Otterkit looked down at his paws.
"I don't want to pretend to be something I can never be and don't really want to be. Being leader isn't really what I want anyway." He meowed, smiling slightly. He looked up at Kestrelclaw and sighed softly. But what do I want? He looked sideways and wondered... What secrets do they know? What can they tell you? He dug his claws into the earth and closed his eyes. But that future's not for me. No matter how badly I want it. He thought sadly. His fast-moving mind clicked for a moment, trying to find something else to focus his thoughts on, but nothing came to him.

Flyingkit shook her head. "I don't want to be a leader either..." She said very quietly. "I want to be Flyingpool or something and be a Medicine Cat..." She whispered. She looked down, thinking about it. Why did most want to be Leaders? Wouldn't the Medicine Cat be just as helpful? She sighed at the thought, knowing impossible things couldn't happen.
