Bulkfoot & Mistface
It was a nice morning when he finally woke up. He had fallen asleep in the nursery, sleeping next to Lunarsong. Bulkfoot had being doing that more and more lately, finding it hard to be apart from her for any long period of time. He noticed Lunarsong was still asleep, her swollen belly making her resemble a fluffy cloud. He exited the den to get some fresh kill for when his mate woke up, and looked around to observe any morning activity.
"Good morning Bulkfoot," The tom heard. He recognized the voice and when he raised his head he saw Mistface. "Just woke up and noticed you weren't there. Sleep in the nursery again?" Bulkfoot nodded. "You're a good cat. You let me know if there's any more news." With that the senior warrior finished a rabbit she had started eating and began making her way away from camp.
Bulkfoot took two birds in his mouth, carrying them back to the nursery.
Fawnpaw, Leafpaw, & Jaypaw
"Come on you two!" Leafpaw, a young calico she-cat, nudged Fawnpaw and Jaypaw to wake up. Jaypaw awoke quickly, rising to his feet with a yawn and a stretch. Now only Fawnpaw remained asleep, and was a little harder to arouse. "Fawnpaw, wake up!" Leafpaw insisted, pawing his face with claws shealthed.
Finally Fawnpaw stirred, mumbling, tiredly, "Just... a couple more minutes..." after another nudge Fawnpaw tentatively came to his feet, face sullen and half asleep. "Okay, I'm up," he mumbled, "There's nothing wrong with sleeping in sometimes..."
"Yeah, but we want to be great warriors, right?" Jaypaw noted, "That means being the best apprentices we can be, getting up early and being productive instead of being lazy and sleeping in."
Leafpaw led the two toms out of the den, "The important thing is we're up, and now we can start the day!"
