* He listened to Cricket and calmed down. M-maybe he could trust them. He didn't try to move his hind leg at all afraid it would start bleeding again. He shivered a bit from the cold wind and looked up at Cricket. He mewed at her and decided to snuggle against her fur for warmth. *

Cricket almost leapt out of her fur, staring at the kit like she was stuck in a monster's bright gaze. What the heck was it doing?! More importantly why?! Now what am I supposed to do? She looked around to see if Notch was coming back yet but didn't see him. With a groan, she wrapped her tail around the tiny scrap of fur, her pity winning over her internal struggle. "Just this once..." She grumbled reluctantly. Eyes and ears attentive for danger, and for Notch. What's taking him so long??

As if summoned, several heartbeats later Notch returned, his hunt successful. He carried a squirrel and a mouse, but as he approached he had to freeze to take in what he saw. Whiskers twitching with amusement. He ignored Cricket's hiss and set the prey down. "Leave me some of that squirrel." He instructed Cricket without looking up, he knew she was already reaching for it.

She grumbled but did not argue, keeping her tail wrapped around the kit almost protectively. Notch couldn't help but chuckle softly. He bent over he mouse, taking a bite and chewing it until it was a mush the kit could lick up. Hopefully this will do... With no milk, he had no other ideas. Notch dropped the chewed mush near the kit, giving him an encouraging blink. "There's no milk." He tried to explain, hoping the kit was old enough to understand. "Try this."

"Waste of prey if you ask me..." Cricket grumbled, talking while she chewed.

Notch hissed at Cricket in warning. "When you have a better idea, let me know." He snapped back. Satisfied when Cricket merely rolled her eyes and ate her half of the squirrel in peace.

Notch looked back the kit. "C'mon." He mewed encouragingly. "Try it."

* He smelled the mush and his stomach rumbled. He took a bite of it and his eyes lit up. He started to gulp as much of it as he could down. The feeling of a somewhat full tummy was amazing. He never had this feeling before. He purred and finished. He looked up at Notch and then at Cricket. These cats were nice to him. He curled up against the warm fur of Cricket and started to doze off. *
