" So he landed on the thorn, and you didn't have the sense to check the clearing before he started jumping around?! Sometimes I think you have the mind of a kittypet Brackenheart!" She licked the fur on top of Thornkit's head, all she cared about was that he was safe, much worse could have happened, he could have broken his paw, or hit his head, or smashed his tail or jammed his precious little nose on a rock! "He could have hurt himself more than he did, and he's lucky he didn't!" Silentshade snapped, when it came down to Thornkit's personal safety and emotional health, no cat messed with him; for fear of facing her or Brackenheart's claws.
"Silentshade, we was being careful, accidents happen, and every kit gets a thorn in their paw sometime! Who hasn't?!" Brackenheart grumbled. But he could see how devoted the she-cat was to protecting the kit, and he felt the same, "Why don't you go play with the other kits Thornkit? Me and your mother need to talk." Brackenheart loved his foster son; but the kit needed to play with kits his own age.

"Okay," he padded off, shuffling. He had no other kit friends, and he always heard his parents argue. He sighed as he nonchalantly swatted at a leaf, causing it to break.
