“Great, I’m being compared to kits again.” The tortoiseshell warrior mewed with a deflating sigh.

As Meadowhaze just lay in the center of the clearing, woefully thinking about her misfortune, Fallenpaw wriggled her haunches and sprang forward towards the trembling pinecones, intent on snagging whatever lay beneath. What Fallenpaw had not expected, though, was a kit’s head to pop up in place of the prey she’d assumed it was. Twisting to avoid landing and flattening the kit, the apprentice fell to the ground besides it, bruising herself. “A kit.” The usually silent apprentice proclaimed with disbelief, pushing herself to her paws again.

At the mention of a kit, Meadowhaze scurried over, blue gaze wide with both delight and puzzlement. “A kit!” She repeated gleefully. “What’s your name, little one?” The once again, overly energetic feline asked, but received no response from the terrified, hissing little bundle of fur. Thoroughly puzzled, Meadowhaze looked towards Dappledleaf with a rather helpless expression. “What do we do with it?"

"Doesn’t look like a ShadowClan kit to me.” Fallenpaw mused observantly from her corner.
