"Snowkit wake up"! Snowkit felt her mothers soft breath ruffling her fur, "Dallkit and Ivykit are waiting for you". Snowkit grumbled "mouse-brain to them,then", she didn't want to open her eyes. Snowkit turned away from Hareface, she had spent the night awake from the annoying mewls from Gullkit and her brothers. Gullkit was born 3 moons after her and he was the most mouse-brained fur all in the whole lake. Excited chatting broke through the silent quietness of the nursery. "Let all cats who can catch their own prey gather around the highstone for a clan meeting" Gailstar yowled. Snowkit sat up as quick as she could as she heard those magical words. "Go on" her mother nudged her, "you can go to the meeting if you behave"! Behave...whatever Snowkit just wanted to be watching and listening to the Clan meeting.

"Redfire, has just come to me with the most disturbing news",Gailstar boomed,"RiverClan has been spotted at the border today and they didn't hold back when attacking his patrol".Snowkit shivered, her father was strong but when facing a border patrol from RiverClan, he could've been severely injured or he could've died. "Thankfully none of the patrol was killed but Redfire and Ratfur have been injured, Clovershell and Grasspaw will take amazing care of them". Gailstar dipped his head to the to medicine she-cats,"Therefore they will be taken off any patrol no matter how many warriors are in that patrol, we can not let the other clans thinks we are weak , ThunderClan is strong" He shouted the last to words.

Snowkit shivered, her father was injured in a simple border patrol. What  was the four clans around the lake coming to? Was this going to happen to every border patrol? "Oi Snowkit" Skypaw's mew cut through her thoughts,"Stop standing around when you can be helping us all out like you 2 brothers and Gullkit. Snowkit shuddered, all Dallkit would do was fling everything everywhere and Ivykit would just wail loudly whenever asked to do anything, Snowkit must be the only  responsible kit in the nursery, they were going to be apprentices in half a moon and if her brothers kept acting like kits, they would have to wait for longer.
