Clearing

First topic message reminder :

*Slashstar padded calmly through the camp, to her den, a content purr rumbling in her throat*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Hawkclaw ran in, dropping a mouse on the freshkill pile.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Stumpkit ran into Hawkclaw, bouncing excitedly* Can you take me an Smokekit out, now?

The large ginger tom flexed his long claws and grinned at his sister. Then, he proceeded to dig into the ground, a determined look on his face. Ever since he had become deputy, Burningpath had started to work harder in just about everything. He didn't laze around as much anymore and definitely cared about the Clan a lot more than he used to. The deputy doubted it'd please his mother, but still tried for his sisters' sake. So they would stop having to worry about him being kicked out for not doing a thing.

FoxStreak chuckled to herself at how BurningPath was finally doing something to help the clan for once as she dug. "How deep do we have to go?"

"Haven't thought that far yet. I'll tell you when I think of it." He winked, making his digging go faster. He used powerful, calculating strokes, trying not to snag his claws on rocks.

FoxStreak growled playfully and dug faster, trying to compete with BurningPath.

Smokepaw pads over, deciding to help dig.

Pineclaw begins to flail dirt behind her, dodging pebbles and rocks. she growled as a pile built behind her.

Burningpath snorted in amusement and kicked his digging up a notch. He could compete...and win this. If he wanted to.

"SmokePaw, you can help me." FoxStreak meowed, her eyes glinting in amusement.

She grins and nods, padding over to where Foxstreak was digging. "Okay." Smokepaw begins flinging dirt behind her.

FoxStreak grinned, digging down as fast as she could.

Pineclaw notices everbody digging and begins to dig as fast as she could. before long, a small pebble-sized hole appears beneath nursery. she digs in to it, making bigger.

SorrelStar lifts her head over to PineClaw's direction. "PineClaw's found an opening!" She meowed loudly.

"Good job, Pineclaw!" Burningpath smiled, helping her dig to make the hole bigger. He gave his sister a sidelong glance that held a teasing sparkle to it.

"Yay, Pineclaw!" She cheered, smiling.

Pineclaw smiled widly and dug with burningpath. beforelong, it was a rock-sized hole. "i think it's done!" she looked in to the hole.

Blackspirit crept forward cautiously, blinking at the sudden light. She glanced back, beckoning with her tail for her kits to follow.

(None of the kits have active roleplayers so we're going to have to ignore that for now. I will put them back up for adoption around the end of the activity check or something. >.>)

(Alrighty :3)

SorrelStar smiled. "Are the kits alright BlackSpirit?"

FoxStreak looked at BurningPath and snorted, turning her head away from his direction.

(I can take one if you want ^^)

Burningpath sniffed the queen and kits to see if they were alright then smiled. "I bet that was scary. Sorry it took so long to get you out." He apologized sincerely, eyes roaming to the kits with a twinge of worry on his features.

(i can take a kit too. :3
Pineclaw scanned the kits and smiled slightly. "none of them seem to be badly hurt. I'll look at them closer as soon as their all up and running.

"I'm sure they're all fine." SorrelStar purred, sniffing the kits.

Pineclaw nooded and looked back at them. "yeah." she smiles at them and licks them all between the ears.
greykit mews, and smiles, looking up at them all curiously.

(I made an adoption topic for them.)

Blackspirit nodded. "I think they're fine. . . . Just frightened." Concern for her kits clouded her gaze.

Bigkit pounced on his mother's tail with a loud giggle. "That was fun! It was like a rescue game!" He chirped, batting at the tail playfully.

Burningpath purred. "Obviously it didn't shake Bigkit, much" the deputy rumbled with laughter.

Greykit saw her brother playing with something bright and fun-looking and stumbled over to it. "what's that?" she squeaked. she crept around burning and peered up at him. "wow! you're like a giant!" she pawed his back curiously.

Burningpath chuckled at the kit."really? Then you're like an ant." He teased, leaning down and nudging the kit playfully.

Bigkit bounced over to look at Burningpath as well and gaped at how bulky and tall he was. "Like a giant tree!" He giggled.
