(I ought to jump back in and start again lol. Also, Sunpaw's design has changed- she now has golden fur, to fit her name) Sunpaw padded up the mountain trail, shivering slightly as the cool wind ruffled her fur. I can't wait to find this kit-cave. It might be warmer than it is out here... she thought wryly. She was excited, too- she'd heard about places like this, where kits who were special were adopted by cats who could handle them. I don't think I'll adopt- I'm pretty much a kitten myself!- but I really, really wanna have a look.She suddenly spotted a cave entrance up ahead. She got a weird feeling of déjà vu as she sped up to investigate it. Could it be...?(Maybe she'll change her mind about the whole 'not adopting' thing lol. Btw, I was supposed to be trying for Blazekit) Sunpaw's ears perked up as she heard noises coming from the cave- chattering, laughing and- Wait, was that thunder?. She knew what this meant- it was real! All of this was real, and there really were kits with powers in the cave! She dashed inside, looking around wildly in awe. "Woah..." she murmured under her breath. She walked forwards, wondering where she could find the guardian of all of these kits. She suddenly heard a squeak as she stepped on something small and fuzzy. "Ah! I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed as she realised she had stepped on the tail of a ginger tom-kit. "I wasn't looking where I was going!" You mousebrain! she thought to herself, only five seconds in this cave and you're already getting into trouble!Maplestone360

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Snowkit "You- you really think so?" Snowkit asked, feeling hopeful and irritated with herself for hoping. Larkdapple didn't know the full extent of her power. She might be wrong about Snowkit. But Snowkit couldn't stop herself from asking. "Even... Even with the powers I have?" Her tail tip twitched in apprehension. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit "Sure," Yewkit replied, turning back to where the entrance to the den once was. With a touch of her paw, the brambles trembled and retreated back into the side of the den, forming the opening once more. But once the she-kit saw that there were other cats gathered at the fresh-kill pile already, she grew nervous. "Maybe we should wait for them to be done...?" she started, shuffling her paws. She'd never liked crowds, even small ones. Goldspark could see Yewkit was a bit uncomfortable, so she tried to forget her hunger and changed the subject. "What games do you like to play?"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Blazekit Blazekit swept his tail closer to him once it was free from the weight. "It's okay," he mewed to whoever had nearly tripped over him, rubbing his tail to ease the pain. "It happens to everybody." He hadn't yet gotten a close enough look at the cat to tell who they were; he was too busy nursing his aching tail. But it had only been stepped on- nothing severe- so it stopped burning quickly and the pain faded away as fast as it had come. Blazekit looked up, expecting to see just another kit looking for breakfast, but the cat he saw was larger and older than him, but not by too much. She must be a Trainee, he realized, studying her closer. But he'd never seen this cat before. And since he had a brother who was a Trainee at the Home, not recognizing one of them meant they were most likely not one at all. Hmn, Blazekit thought. He brought himself out of his thoughts, and mewed a greeting to the new she-cat. "Hi! My name's Blazekit. And... I don't think we've met, have we?" he ended with a grin. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit "I- I don't really play games often," Yewkit admitted, now realizing how strange it might sound for a kit to not play games. "At least- not with other kits."She usually kept her distance, in case something went wrong, like if she accidentally stepped on a trailing plant and sent it growing everywhere, or messed up someone else's nest on accident, or- something like that. None of the other kits seemed to think she was very interesting to play with anyway. She did play moss-ball with herself from time to time, though, since they were easy for her to make, obviously. "Um. I like moss-ball, though," she stated, as to give Goldspark an answer instead of just standing there awkwardly.

(Trying out a new layout.) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Silverkit Silverkit returned Rattlesnake's smile, unable to keep her face from shining. "Sure," she replied, feeling her stomach rumbling in agreement. She hadn't realized how hungry she was. Silverkit turned to head over to the fresh-kill, where other kits were beginning to cluster for their breakfast. She even saw two trainees waiting for a chance to pick something from the pile. Being a bit small for her age, Silverkit could easily slip through and take a finch from the top of the pile. Once she'd emerged again, she waited near the edge for Rattlesnake to choose his prey. It wouldn't be too hard, since there weren't many kits around yet; no more than ten. But still she waited. Rattlesnake looked back over at Silverkit before padding forward and taking a very small mouse. He padded back to her and gave her a rather lopsided smile. "Don't want to be a burden," he said rather lamely. Truth was, he didn't really need to eat. His body fed off of the power that flowed inside his own body. Kind of like a plant produced its own food, only it had help from outside sources. "That finch looks fresh," he joked. "Better eat it before it flies away again."

"Oh, okay. Do you wanna play with me?" Goldspark could see that Yewkit was very shy. I wonder why? She was determined to show Yewkit she didn't have to be worried around others.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fishkit "Hmn," Fishkit mewed, as if he was trying to decide, although he already knew which one he preferred. "I'll hide first, I guess," he replied. I won't lose this time. That Rattlesnake might've beaten me, but he knew about my power. This cat doesn't. Yet, he thought silently. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Silverkit Silverkit grinned at his joke and flicked her tail in amusement. She'd noticed that he'd hardly taken anything for himself, but unlike all the stories of Clan cats starving so others could eat, Rattlesnake looked perfectly fine. I guess he just... doesn't need much food. Maybe it's normal for someone in his group, she reasoned, and pushed away her concern when she realized it made sense. "Where should we eat?" she asked him instead. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit "Sure," Yewkit replied. She didn't want to be rude and say no. Besides, what could happen? Goldspark was one of the only cats who seemed to be interested in her power, at least. Yewkit touched one of the moss nests in the den, and a small ball grew away from the rest of the moss. She plucked it off and tossed it to Goldspark, ready to play. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Goldenkit "I think so," Goldenkit meowed. "None of us really know what it is. I think she can just live longer than other cats, that's all." She'd heard some of the trainees talking about it once. Maplestone had been around long before when they'd still been young kits, and she hadn't seemed to change at all since then. She must age very slowly, at least, Goldenkit thought.

Rattlesnake looked around, then pointed with his tail over to a corner of the camp that was well shaded and out of the way of others. "That look good?" he asked, tilting his head at Silverkit. "Or if you want, we could go find a place out of the camp that might be more peaceful." The idea of eating in either area was tempting. Here, they could watch the activities of the others, but outside, they would have more privacy to talk.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Snowkit "You- you really think so?" Snowkit asked, feeling hopeful and irritated with herself for hoping. Larkdapple didn't know the full extent of her power. She might be wrong about Snowkit. But Snowkit couldn't stop herself from asking. "Even... Even with the powers I have?" Her tail tip twitched in apprehension.
(I like the little cats at the top btw) "Even with the powers you have. You could always ask the older cats here too for advice, I'm sure they all went through some uncertainty before," Larkdapple replied. "Practice can help you master most any skill." She wasn't sure if she was the right cat to say that, since she wasn't a particularly outstanding warrior, but hopefully Snowkit would feel comforted.

It's just... I've never been inside an adoption centre before, let alone one for cats with powers! Hey- what's your power?" She felt rude for being so forward, but she reckoned it was worth asking. It's not often you meet supernatural kittens, she thought with a small smile.

Daffodilstar frowned."Are you sure she didn't go to Starkstone and get nine lives?" It sounded like something a leader would go through--she knew from experience. "Is there a name for the ability?" Her eyes suddenly sparkled. Could I have a special ability without knowing it?!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fishkit "Okay," Fishkit agreed, grinning. He crouched, ready to run off as soon as Ambermist started counting. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Silverkit "Yeah, that place's nice," Silverkit replied, glancing at the spot. It looked pretty peaceful. She picked up her fresh-kill again and began padding over to it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Snowkit Snowkit's fur fluffed up slightly in surprise. Larkdapple was being very kind to her. She must believe what she was saying about Snowkit. "Thank you," Snowkit mewed softly. She hesitated, then slowly stretched her neck to touch her nose to Larkdapple's pelt, a sign of graditude. "No one's ever said that to me before." [Congrats, your kit has moved to !](Thanks c:) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Maplestone Maplestone was still sitting beside Ambermist and Fishkit, watching fondly as they talked about hide-and-seek. They'll get along with each other just fine, she thought to herself. The, she swiveled her head around as she heard an unfamiliar voice call out. Her green gaze caught sight of a beige colored she-cat standing by the entrance. "Hello!" she mewed to her, standing up and padding over. "I'm Maplestone, and this is my Home. Have you come to see a kit?" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Yewkit Yewkit rose on her hind legs to reach the moss-ball, batting it back to Goldspark with a paw. Something about playing with Goldspark felt good and right, as if she'd been missing something staying away from the all other kits for the first few moons of her life. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Blazekit "Oh, I can control fire," Blazekit replied, shrugging. "It's nothing much, since I don't see real fire very often anyway." He then answered Sunpaw's first question. "Living here is pretty cool, actually. I can learn from all the other kits and Trainees; understand them and know what their powers are like." Blazekit loved living in the Home, but he still found himself longing for another cat who might want to adopt him, somewhere out there. He wanted to know everything he could about the world. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Goldenkit Goldenkit tilted her head in thought. "What's a Starkstone?" she asked. "Maplestone never mentioned one before." But the phrase "get nine lives" did sound familiar to Goldenkit- something Clan cats did when they became a leader. But Maplestone doesn't lead any Clan, Goldenkit reasoned, feeling confused. (You've been added! You can post the starter if you want.)

(Okay! Thank you!)
Sunshine entered a cave, then realized it was occupied by many cats. "Oh.." She muttered. She backed up and then stumbled a bit, then fell, coming face to face with a little black and white she-kit. "Oh, um, hi." She said.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Skykit Skykit's fur bushed up in alarm. She didn't recognize the new she-cat who'd just fallen in front of her. She hoped quietly that she hadn't been the one to trip her. She'd only been on her way to the fresh-kill pile, even though she'd known she probably wasn't going to get breakfast right away. She'd have to wait for all the other kits to be done first. None of them particularly enjoyed being around her. She dipped her head slightly to show she'd heard the she-cat's greeting, but she didn't say anything.

Rattlesnake followed her, his pace slow, but steady. He felt pretty laid back here. The Home was nice. He just hoped that Silverkit would find his group just as nice as the cats here. He sat down in the shade and looked over at Silverkit, small hints of worry about what she would think running through his head.

Sunpaw's whiskers twitched with amusement. "You know, most cats don't say 'I can control fire' in such a nonchalant voice." She paused to think for a moment. "But I guess that, for you, having powers must be pretty normal. And I totally get the thing about learning from the others- I didn't learn how to turn invisible or anything from my Clanmates, but they taught me the Warrior Code, so I guess it must be kinda similar, right?" She remembered when she was small, and she'd pull pranks on her friends before being scolded by the elders for 'going against the spirit of the Warrior Code'. It hadn't stopped her, but it had made her feel a little bit guilty about it the next time she'd do it. She wondered if kits with powers did the same kind of thing. "Hey, what kind of pranks happen here? They must be a step up from normal pranks- putting thorns in your littermate's nest and so on."

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Skykit Skykit smiled back slightly, noticing now that the cat was standing that she was quite a bit smaller than it was. She swallowed back nerves, and nodded to show she was fine. Then she realized that the cat must be expecting Skykit to say her name, and she frowned, shuffling her paws. She didn't think anyone told the cat who she was, or that she didn't— or, rather, couldn't speak. Most of the other kits just thought she was weird and didn't like to talk to anyone, but Maplestone knew the truth. It was why she'd been left at the Home. The only real sounds she could make were strange screeches that no one understood. But no words. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Silverkit Silverkit sat down next to Rattlesnake and bit into her finch. She chewed, swallowed, and then noticed that Rattlesnake hadn't started eating yet. In fact, he looked a bit worried. "What's wrong?" she asked him. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Blazekit "Yeah, I guess," Blazekit answered Sunpaw with a smile. The Warrior Code and powers weren't really that similar, but if she said so, than it was fine. He thought about what she asked next, scrunching up his nose. "Well, we do get pranks like those, alright." He remembered how his denmate Fishkit would prank him the old-fashioned way from time to time, although he wasn't very good at it. "But there have been some creative pranks here, believe me. One time, a kit named Wavekit, he can make water, dropped a giant puddle on one of the others when they weren't looking. It was not a good day for that victim," he ended with a chuckle. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Maplestone "Hmn," Maplestone mewed, glancing around the cavern to find Minkkit. She spotted him near the fresh-kill pile, making quick work of a squirrel. "He's over there," she mewed, pointing to the kit with her tail. She turned back to Nagisa and smiled. "Good luck!" she meowed joyfully. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fishkit Fishkit darted away from Ambermist as soon as the tom opened his mouth. He ran over to his oldest hiding spot over Maplestone's den and hesitated. Last time he'd played hide-and-seek, he'd been found hiding in this spot. But Ambermist didn't know where it was... so it was probably safe. Besides, he wouldn't be fooled into showing himself this time. He continued on up the cavern wall, squeezing behind the covered entrance to Maplestone's den and curling up in the crack. He held his breath, hoping Ambermist wouldn't find him.
