She almost thought she'd made it another round, but, ah well, turns out the bush gave her away after all. An amused smile crossed her maw as she left her hiding spot, and Nightshiver gently - briefly, he had a job to do and she hadn't expected as much - returned Hawkbite's quick nuzzle before clearing away from the searching ground. Settling by the mouth of the nursery, she opted to keep watching (also to keep an eye on any sneaky kits maybe wanting to sneak out; my, they couldn't have that happen!).

But ever so, Sleepykit. She spent quite the time hiding within the shadows, making use of her dark pelt despite its white flecks. An ear flicked, and rather quickly, the young kitten realised she hadn't gone to hide anywhere yet. She spent two rounds hiding in nearly the same location, even if one was more so behind a den, it would be difficult to use this hiding area again without risk - surely Hawkbite would think to come looking here more closely next round. Noting Nightshiver's failure to remain hidden behind the bush, thinking the enforcer commander might make a note to look there carefully too this round, the black and white feline was unsure of where to go. Hurrying across the clearing with a tried-to-keep-quiet pitter patter of kitten paws, she slunk low when she felt time wear thin. She didn't want to be found just yet, to be honest, she wanted to show Miss Grandmama she could be stealthy. And mama, mama always seemed stealthy. Eyes flicking about, the kitten soon spotted a dent within uneven ground - a small dent with shrubs, although scarce, and some loose soil. Her whiskers twitched. It wasn't quite ideal - she would need a grooming session afterwards - but it was the more promising of spots she could see now that Hawkbite called the last few seconds. So, sneaking close to the aforementioned area Sleepykit briefly rolled around in the soil to cover the white flecks of her fur, then lay low within the indent behind the little shrubs. Kitten size made it easier to hide within here, she supposed, a warrior would be more obvious to spot. Here she had to hope it would work out.
