<tawny's POV>
It was mid-day, the tops of the canopy trees observed the suns rays like a sponge and reflitered them through an engimatic tangle of thick branches. Two figures were moving through the shadows, one the size of an apprentice and the other a mere, almost sickenly tiny kit. The larger one was chasing the flickers of dancing sunlight cascading with the silhouettes, and the smaller one just sat there and watched.
"Remind me why we're here again?" she remarked irritably, a look of disgust smeared across her face.
" Because I said so." came the curt reply back from the tom, who did not look up from his simple chasing game. "And because it's fun."
"We're gonna get yelled at!" she snarled. Tawnykit would head back to the camp if she wasn't concerned for Cougarkit's safety; leaving him alone in the forest was almost as deadly as playing with an adder. His stupidity and lack of common sense made her angry, but all she could do was follow him.

"Where gonna get yelled at!"
He winced, considering her warning for a moment or two. The brown kit merely shrugged, " Oh shut up. No one is going to yell at you 'cause you never do anything bad!" Lifting his large head in the air, Cougarkit's handsome features lit up with excitement and awe as a owl passed overhead. Tawnykit's mouth dropped, and he felt her attempting to push him over toward a thick tangle of reeds. She was too weak, but he got the message and scrambled off toward the bramble.
The enormous bird's shadow darkened his path as he felt the wind from it's beating wings brush across his shoulder. In a hasty attempt, he slid after his sister into the shelter of the bushes and lay his front paws over her back to protect her from the preying bird.
