~Eaglekit~

The little kit couldn’t speak for fright. His eyes grew wider and wider as the story continued. His pupils were tiny slits. The leader killed a kit! His heart pounded in his chest. Would Aspenstar do that? He wasn’t sure he didn’t know Aspenstar. Surely not, right? His pelt prickled, and even though Ridgeclaw had told him to leave he couldn’t move.

When Softpaw spoke she drew his attention, and broke through his shock. Tears welled up in his eyes, and if Mallowkit hadn’t been there he probably would have started crying. Mallowkit. How would he feel if something like that happened to his brother? He sought him out in the crowd. Was he just as scared as Eaglekit? They should both go with Softpaw. She said she could make them feel better. When he found Mallowkit, he got to his paws and padded over. He nuzzled him to try and reassure him if he was sad.

“Let’s go with Softpaw, ok?”
