Her theory was proved correct when the kit suddenly asked to play tag. Dovecoo had every intention of agreeing, but made it seem as if she was hesitating so she could slink forward and tag Papayakit first. "Well..." she hedged, sneaking forward. Unfortunately, Papayakit was quicker and tagged her first, running away. "Oh! You little fox!" She giggled, leaping after her. Thanks to Dovecoo's petite form, it was fairly easy to weave around nests. Despite being small for an adult cat, Dovecoo was still larger than Papaykit and caught up with her easily. "Gotcha!" She crowed as she touched her tail to Papayakit's back before turning on her paws and bounding away. She stopped at her nest and turned to watch Papayakit in a playful crouch.

It was a good thing Papayakit had tagged Dovecoo first, because out the corner of her gaze, she caught the sly move of what Dovecoo was trying to do. Papayakit has snickered and tagged her first before she started to run away. Her form was small, and her strides were small since she was so young. Dovecoo was more agile than her. Her legs were longer compared to the kit, so it was a matter of time before Dovecoo caught up to Papayakit without much effort. The kit did the mistake of looking back. A part of her tensed up because she could see Dovecoo near her at a faster speed. Papayakit had let out a squeal. If only her tail had been a little shorter...Papayakit scrunched up her nose, twisting her body to playfully glare at Dovecoo. The she kit quickly started to follow after Dovecoo with a much smaller movement. Dovecoo has stopped at her nest, so Papayakit had crouched down to copy the white cat’s movement. Her rump was in the air, tail lashing at a light speed. She stayed in that position for a while. The impression running through her mind was that Dovecoo was her prey and Papayakit needed to catch her. A few moments later, Papayakit was running towards Dovecoo with her little stubby legs to tag the she cat.
