The Six Clans : A New Beginning

🐱Chapter Three🐱

((Found my Emijos!!))

☀Hazel☀

I padded out of the den and looked around my Group.

Night and Minnow were sitting close deep in discussion while Blaze and Kelli were locked in a play fight.

Rowan, Bramble and Sky were watching Ava and Paul face off in a fight as well, Arrow and Quincy yowling encouragement.

Shadow and Flame were sharing a squirrel,but it seemed to me, both seemed more interested in helping Night and I with our duties these days,rather than learning more about hunting and fighting like their denmates.

Riley and Lacey even said that they'll only listen to them half the time, preferring to wander off and see if Night or I needed any help.

They seem so eager to learn what we know..But I can't take Newbies now.

But Night beat me to it,speaking to them in a low calming mew.

"I'm sorry, but I must say no. You know your duties to this Group and if you want to be warriors, I suggest you return to your Trainers now."

They dipped their heads.

"Yes, Night. We understand."

I sighed.

"Well,that takes care of that. I'm going to get some more poppy seeds and marigold."

Night nodded.

"Alright, Hazel."

As I headed towards the herb patch, I noticed with pride as I saw my cats racing through the branches,happy as kits.

"Look! Squirrel! Catch it, Ava!" I whispered under my breath as I saw the Newbie preparing to leap,her haunches wiggling slightly as she pounced,almost soaring through the air,thanks to her strong back legs.

She snapped the squirrel's neck,leaped down and buried it.

"Great catch,Ava." I purred.

Her yellow eyes widen.

"T-thank you, Hazel."

I nodded and padded back to camp and purred through the herbs in my jaws as I spot Tangle trying to teach the kits how to fight,raising up on her hindlegs and swiping at the air.

"Great job!" I called to the kits as they copy Tangle, holding each other down and rolling away.

I gave the herbs to Night,who purred.

Later on that night after a successful hunt, I curled up in my nest and fell in a dreamless sleep...

"Hazel? Wake up!"

I growled,mumbling, "Night? Can't it wait until morning?"
