Someone was calling for kits and apprentices. His green, tired eyes scanned the small crowd already gathered in front of Stoneheart. Leafpaw's familiar pelt was beside Berrypaw, a cathe had recently met while helping out the elders and queens with water and moss.
Quietly, he padded up to them with no hurry. He was just curious to know what everyone was doing here, especially the kits.
"Hello. Hi Berrypaw." Would the cream and white apprentice remember him? "What's everyone doing here?" he asked while turnind around to take a wider look at the mass of cats.

This event should cheer her up after meancat wouldn't let Sheepkit join that other one. So mean! However, luckily there were some new friends to friend! Sheepkit found three cats together and was going to talk them! As her little white fur skipped along, the little kit raised one paw in a small ‘Hello’ Hiya! I Sheepkit, who you?”

Lightningkit [ft. Snowypaw]

There it was. The giant monster, threatening the lithe calico warrior with it's large, moon shaped eyes, and sharp, beak like teeth. Feathers covered its hide, shimmering like water in the full moon light. The molly stood her ground, tail lashing as she realized that brute strength would get her nowhere in this fight. No, she needed her cunning mind. Her wits. Her perfect tim-

WindClan, gather around! I've got a game of trivia for you!

"Wait game?" Lightningkit's vividly imagined scene broke out into reality as the calico kit turned to look from the pitifully shredded wad of moss before her to the mackerel tabby calling out to WindClan. A couple of kits passed her by, as well as a small, speckled apprentice. Ears perked up as she realized she would have to hurry if she wanted to get a good spot. The curious kit pranced forward, not really looking were she was going before she slammed nose first into a very, very fuzzy trunk.

Nose scrunched up in pain, Lightningkit covered her muzzle with her two forepaws, checking to see if there was any damage. Realizing she was okay, she instead turned angrily towards the trunk, her gaze going upwards as her eyes grew round, realizing it was a giant cat. The monster sized creature was looking down at her curiously, his head tilted questioningly before speaking a question, asking her if she was alright.

A frown instantly appeared on the small calico's face, embarrassment and frustration at having wasted time on this giant ball of fur evident on her face. "Just watch where you are going, mouse brain!" she squeaked indignantly, her chest puffing out for a moment before she noticed the tom's eyes glimmering with... wait... was that amusement?! Muttering a light apology - at least he wasn't entirely devoid of manners, even if he was hopelessly rude - the giant padded off, heading towards a long furred fawn molly, a cream tom, and the speckled apprentice - who seemed to be in the midst of a panic attack - dipping his head at the first two before timidly nuzzling the latter's cheek with his nose in what Lightningkit assumed was a greeting, her blue eyes glaring daggers at the ruffian. StarClan be damned if it had been her fault. He was older, he should know better!

Large ears perking up as she realized she was wasting even more time holding a grudge against the large tom, a small squeak escaped her as she leaped comically up in the air and rushed towards the group. "Wait for me, wait for me! I wanna play!" she mewed in her high pitched voice, her smooth coat fluffed up lightly in excitement. Turning to Sheepkit, not having noticed the kit before, her ears perked up, happy to see a fellow denmate around. "Hi hi! Are you here to play too?"

Berrypaw
Post Count: 75/100

As Berrypaw continued backing away from the group of cats that surrounded Stoneheart, she failed to notice that a cream-furred apprentice had approached her until it was too late. A voice that seemed to yell directly in her ear had the skittish molly jumping sideways with surprise and a feeble yelp. Wide, mismatched eyes locked onto Leafpaw, and Berrypaw said nothing for a few seconds.

The eggshell colored, spotted feline had barely opened her mouth to reply, as she'd finally kind of managed to settle down, when another voice broke through, and Berrypaw promptly clamped her mouth shut to merely stare. Oh, she knew Milkpaw. Seeing that it was him and not another random cat had her a little relieved. He had been kind to her, and she would never forget that. Too late did she realize that now both Leafpaw and Milkpaw were staring expectantly at her, as if waiting for an answer. Ah yes, she had been asked a question.

Ironically, Berrypaw was once again unable to reply to her newest companion when the scampering of tiny paws had her distracted once again. She spotted Sheepkit approach, and somehow managed to wave her bushy tail in silent reply before a familiar scent wafted towards her. Snowypaw! She'd know that scent anywhere. It was becoming reflex to instantly turn and search for her tall friend whenever his name entered her thoughts, but before she could do so, she sensed him by her side.

Within moments of feeling his comforting touch at her cheek, Berrypaw was fully leaning against Snowypaw's side, basking in the safety she felt there. Sure, it was very unbecoming of her to suddenly without permission press herself against Snowypaw as if he was her life force, but she couldn't help it. All these new cats had Berrypaw's anxiety skyrocketing. Milkpaw she knew, but Leafpaw and two rowdy (mostly the calico one that'd just practically appeared out of nowhere) kits? It was rather startling that any of these cats had even bothered to approach her with the nervous wreck that she was. Although now that her heartrate had begun to return to it's normal beat, the speckled she-cat was considerably calmed. She could handle this. She could.

Well, right now she had to. Or else she'd seem like an entire wimp. There was no choice, of course. But despite those bubbles of insecurity, Berrypaw was no longer scared. In fact, a small albeit genuine smile wormed its way onto her face. So with a cleansing breath, Berrypaw peeled herself away from Snowypaw's side, feeling rather embarrassed with her own abrupt actions now that she took time to process them.

"Hi, um, Leafpaw. Milkpaw." A nod in Milkpaw's direction. And then, her heterochromatic orbs roved back in Sheepkit's direction. "I'm Berrypaw." She offered softly, but Sheepkit was probably too distracted by her new kit companion to take any heed in Berrypaw's quiet words.

Lastly, finally, she turned in Snowypaw's direction, swallowing the embarrassed lump in her throat. But of course, she couldn't apologize for using him as both physical and mental support. To apologize would be to break Berry-Law, even if said law was a joke. So instead, Berrypaw just smiled. Well, it could be called more of a... embarrassed-at-herself-grimace-but-attempting-to-smile. "Thank you," The words were barely a whisper, but her companion had probably heard. Hopefully...

“Hiya, Berrypaw!”Sheepkit waved her tail back, excitement in her tone.

[Silverfur & Co]

Sunkit padded over and looked around listening to what was happening. Seems to be a game of some sort she smiled softly and nodded. She was ready to participate

[Burning'Flame]

Moonpaw heard the call and padded over to her friends, Quickfur and Swiftmoon. Her mom was close to both of them, so she spent some time
with them when Leaffall was gone.

Snowypaw [ft. Lightningkit]

A trivia game. Oh, how had Snowypaw gotten himself involved in this? He was certainly far from the brainiest of apprentices - or the brawniest... there were really a lot of qualities he excelled at not having - so at the mention of a game to test their wits, the giant had decided to leave. It had been a few days since he had gone to his nest, keeping most nights to the entrance, still waiting for Deadmoon's return despite his dwindling hope. Surely nobody would mind if he took a nap there while everyone gathered in the clearing around camp and played their game?

His plan had naturally been foiled... although surprisingly before he had even entered the apprentice's den. Distracted at the sight of a very panicked looking Berrypaw standing amidst a bit of a crowd - alright, maybe three cats were not a crowd, but it certainly looked like the shy molly considered it a crowd right about now - a small thump on his foreleg made him look down, only to come face to face with a very terrified looking calico kit. The kit had tried to fix herself up, fluffing up her fur and insulting him - which to be fair, he had just stopped walking in the middle of the clearing while blocking paw traffic - much to his surprise and amusement. This kit's spirit - Lightningkit, if he recalled correctly - reminded him of the indomitable spirit Sheepkit had shown not too long ago in a similar meeting. It seemed the kits of WindClan were getting some pep to them of late. Good, they would need that fight if the outsiders were to remain a threat.

Giving the kit an apology for having gotten in her way, Snowypaw had turned around and headed towards his friend. He'd originally had no intention to play this game, but he would gladly stay to support his Berrycool denmate. His attempts at calming her down had seemed to work, a small purr escaping him as she pressed closer to him, obviously having understood his quiet greeting as the simple I'm here he'd meant, hoping she would feel more at ease with a familiar face nearby. As she spoke and tore herself from him to better speak to their clanmates, Snowypaw turned his attention towards the other... four, judging by the sudden sight of the calico kit before them - although she seemed distracted, more focused on Stoneheart than on the group itself - his ears perked up as he listened to the light, friendly chatter.

Noticing Berrypaw's already soft voice had suddenly stopped, he turned blue eyes on her heterochromatic ones, sensing her gaze on him. Tilting his head with a silent, concerned Are you alright? at the sight of her grimace, he saw her whiskers twitching in barely perceptible, spoken words. Barely, but caught in the tom's mismatched ears. His eyes softening at her gratitude, thinking in unnecessary but still appreciating her kindness at even considering thanking him for something as small as his company, Snowypaw shook his head lightly, a small, timid smile on his face. Moving only his tail, he wrapped it gently as much as he could around Berrypaw's smaller frame. Normally he would have spoken, explained himself to the cat in question. But for him to explain such an action to Berrypaw would be an insult to her. The molly knew him too well for such things. She would understand the silent Always in his actions. She always did.

Oh, Stars. Milkpaw just wished to disappear from this chaos and hide his head in his soft nest. This was supposed to be a distracting activity - something to keep the distress out of his head for some time, but too many cats were now addressing him, and it seemed that Berrypaw was having the same problem now.

"Uhm.. Hello, Sheepkit, Snowypaw... and Lightningkit." He glanced at Leafpaw, his eyes a plead to take his place and speak, introduce everyone to everyone, make conversation. He sighed, a pang of regret for his sister that still was recovering in the medicine cat's den. He figured she wouldn't join today, but maybe he could go now and pay her a visit before the event started.
