Echokit blinks her eyes open drowsily, taking in her surroundings. She was in the nursery, her sister lying on top of her.
"Geoff Minnowkit." She murmured. Minnowkit moved over, and Echokit slipped out of the nursery quietly. She saw Cinderkit and Squirreltail playing moss ball.
"Can I play?" She asks excitedly.
Blazingpelt looks at the fresh kill pile, which was looking small. I'll go hunt, and see Nissa on the way, he decides. He sits up and stretches, waking up from the doze that the warm afternoon sun had put him in, and headed into the woods. He sniffed for any cats following him. He didn't scent any, so he continued to move along. He caught a mouse and a squirrel on the way, burying them so he could come back later. He got to Nissa's house and sat on the fence, waiting. She came out of the cat flap, he mis-matched eyes twinkling mischievously. He jumped down to greet her.
"Hey, you." She purred. "What have you been doing?" He licked her on the ear.
"Those two furballs of ours are a pawful." He tells her. "I've been hunting, fighting and looking after them." She nuzzles him sympathetically.
"I'm sure they aren't that bad." She reasons. He snorts.
"Oh, they are. Echokit has your spunk, and my strength, and Minnowkit has your frame and my humour." Nissa rolls her eyes at this. "They are more than a pawful, they have all four of my paws tied up." She looks at him in adoration, then remembers something. She crawls under the dwelling and comes back out with a sparrow and two mice.
"I killed these this morning for you." She purrs. He nuzzles her in appreciation.
"Why don't you join Nightclan?" He asks desperately. She shakes her head.
"This is better. I am safe, I get to see you, and my kits are growing to be fine warriors." She tries to convince him. He licks her on the cheek with a sigh.
"I'll see you soon my little flower." He purrs affectionately, then jumps onto the fence and back into his territory with the prey in his mouth. He picks the other prey up as he comes back and puts it on the fresh kill pile, and walks into the nursery.
"Hello Minnowkit." He purrs. She jumps up excitedly.
"Daddy!" She squeals. He shakes his head.
"Shh. The queens and the other kits need rest." He whispers. She nods seriously. They walk out of the nursery and he grabs a vole. He lets his daughter have first bite, then shares the rest with her.
Tia looks up as the familiar ginger tom walked out of the forest and into the white kittypet's house again. He came about once a fortnight. It was weird. But he seemed familiar, even the first time she saw him, when Dean told her about him. She shrugged and walked back into her twolegs den, lying in her bed. It was uncomfortable, so she went outside again and slept in the afternoon sun.
