Beechkit leapt onto Emberkit's back. "Ha ha! Got you!" he mewed as he squished his sister. Beechkit grinned. Sunny days were perfect for playing. All was peaceful in the ThunderClan camp. Dew was heavy on the leaves, but Beechkit was happy to have it drip on his pelt, it had been a hot Greenleaf so far, and he was happy for the cold of the dew, even if it made his pelt messy.
Bristlefrost was watching the them play. She was a good mother to Beechkit, but sometimes she got distracted. He hated it. He'd be having a good time, then find his mother staring at him sadly. His best guess was that it was some memories about the battle with the imposter. Beechkit heard all sorts of stories about how Bristlefrost helped bring back StarClan when Ashfur attacked. Hearing about those times always scared him a little, but he hid it. No one would think he'd be a great warrior if they knew he was afraid of nursery tales! When I'm a warrior, he thought, I could hear that story twice and not even flinch! I'll be fearless!.
Suddenly, all the air was knocked out of Beechkit. Emberkit had got a leg free and kicked him in the chest. Getting a gasp of air he complained, "Hey, not so hard!".
Emberkit rolled her eyes, "Says the one who just knocked me over!". She pushed him a bit harder into the dirt. Bristlefrost intervened, picking Emberkit up off of Beechkit. She cracked a smile, "You two. Not so rough! You don't want to get eaten up by Ashfur, do you?".
"No!" they both nervously squeaked back, running into the nursery as if the grey tom could appear at any moment.
