camp GET READY TO RUMBLE // kit gathering

[rivuletpaw]

The copse is... odd. Different, and not really comforting at all. The most Rivuletkit gets from it is a new exploration venture to tackle every day - but days drag on and the excitement of new wears into near nothingness. There's no water to swim in, hardly any den to hide in. It's... desolate. Boring. And in her bouts of solemn idling, Rivuletkit makes a sharp decision.

She is among the oldest in the nursery. She will only have a moon cycle at most until she's an apprentice. She must utilize the time she has left to have fun, to inspire the other kittens - to bring joy to the Clan again!

"Clans of the forest!" she chirps suddenly, bouncing to her paws and trotting centermost to the piles of bored kittens. Her grin is wide and wild, sharp ivory teeth clicking together. "It is time for our gathering! I, er... Rivuletstar, leader of RiverClan, will start!" she claims the sought after position with greed in her chest, but it bubbles from her lips in a series of short giggles. "My warriors are strong and brave - as they are every season. They even... er... oh! They even caught a fish, this big!" she stretches her forepaws outwards as far as she can, "It will feed our nursery for moons." She gloats with her storytelling, tail flicking behind her. Her gaze flickers over the kittens who look at her, and she grins at the first who holds her gaze.

"You're next, SkyClan's leader."

[DARK-KIT]

Dark-kit really didn't like the flood. It was wet and weird and scary. He didn't like when the water got so high he couldn't touch anymore... it clawed at his fur and made him think of the time his momma had tried to teach them to swim. That is to say... he seemed to act like a rock in deep water. If his papa hadn't carried him out, he probably would've been swept away like Apricotflower or Loonpaw! That would've been... bad.

So, in comparison to all that, he really didn't mind the beech copse. It was dry and safe and far enough away from the water's edge that he didn't have to worry about being snatched up again. Plus, his momma said that it wouldn't be forever! They were only staying here until their den's dried out again, and until they were less muddy and soggy he didn't want to go back anyways.

However, he would agree with Rivuletkit that it was a bit boring here. So when the other kitten had started a game of clan gathering, he'd eagerly signed up. But a huff of annoyance rumbled in his chest when she declared herself Rivuletstar and got to pick her clan first. She was making all the decisions and it wasn't fair! "How come you get to be Riverclan?" He whined with a frown, tail lashing against the ground as she turned to him and deemed him the leader of Skyclan.

"I don't wanna be Skyclan, i'm not a kittypet!" They were well-known for being the softest clan in the forest, and he was anything but soft! Dark-kit deserved to be the head of one of the stronger clans, one of the cool ones! So if he really couldn't be Riverclan... "I'm Darkstar, leader of Shadowclan," he declared triumphantly, grinning cockily at his adversary. Shadowclan may be stinky, but at least they lived someplace awesome.

"Yeah well, my warriors are even braver. We uh... we chased away a whole Twoleg yesterday! It was really big, but we're too fast for them, of course. Oh, oh, also, we killed a... a badger!" The new young leader puffed up his chest, shaking out his unruly mane to make himself look bigger as they waited for the next clan to announce themselves.

[brindlepaw]

brindlekit watched in her usual wide eyed curiosity. she wasn't well known for jumping in when it came to, well, anything. she always just kind of thought it was odd. perhaps she could join today. "i'll be skyclan," she mewed. she didn't know what darkkit was on about when it came to kitty-pets. she hadn't been born in riverclan, she'd just appeared one day, so maybe skyclan fit anyway. who knows. "um. i'm brindle...star." a sudden insecurity wiggled her way into her mind. a new experience. one she was not fond of. she wasn't supposed to feel bad. she wasn't really supposed to feel anything. "our warriors are, uh, great. we caught a bunch of stuff."

she didn't know anything. she didn't know what clans even really did. she'd been there for almost 3 moons now and she had held herself out of everything. watched from the sidelines. she thought that was the best thing to do to learn about everything but...

"oh! we have new kits too!" she mewed. with that, she sat back again. maybe she should try to do this more. maybe she'd get better at it.

[ALGAEPAW]

"I'm Algaestar of Algaeclan!" Rivuletkit's sister piped up from behind her, sprightly voice ringing through the beech copse like it filled in the cavities of empty spaces, digging away beneath the sorrow of their circumstances. The freckled dilute calico trotted up to the gathered "leaders," tail and head held high in a show-beast display of pride for the clan he had made up five seconds ago. Golden eyes darted between Rivuletstar and Darkstar and Brindlestar - of whom could hardly compare to the wonderful Algaestar! "My clan is super cool and big and caught a really big fish! As big as a fox! Plus, we ran with the wolves and, um, we fought a bunch of clans and stuff! And won, too! I think Starclan is on our side." Too-wide grin of shark-sharp teeth razed through peach-fuzz face, like his own storytelling lay dimples on his clay countenance, brimming with morning's ardor. He braced himself for some sort of stickler's rule, stating that she could not actually create her own clan and other such drivel. What use was there in an imaginary world if she could not bend the rules a little? Fate knew that it was much harder to rend the will of the real, breathing world. She tried not to show her own weakness in regards to what had transpired mere days before, as if her featherweight body floated just above the melancholy and the mire, a culm bobbing along the rushing rapids. Water could not reach her here, and yet its suppressive reach seemed ever-pervasive. If she held her breath for just long enough... the air would surely drown her, too.

  —— ALGAEKIT / He/She / 5 Moons
  —— Kitten of Riverclan / Sibling to Redkit and Rivuletkit / Mentored by N/A
  —— A wiry, wild-furred blue tortoiseshell with high white and freckle-like spotting. Brilliant yellow eyes, like twin molten suns.
  —— Chaotic, obsessive and strange, Algaekit is a weirdly refreshing character to encounter amongst the sea of her dutiful kin. Beset by nature and her patterns, he is quick to connect the dots even when no such connection truly exists. Somewhat easy to befriend, provided that one can handle his bluntness and honesty at times.

[rivuletpaw]

Too-white teeth click together in a wide grin as Dark-kit joins her but is entirely too unwilling to be SkyClan. He picks ShadowClan instea and... well, it makes sense. His parents did name him Dark-kit after all. She listens to his claims of chasing a twoleg and killing a badger with her head tilted upwards, eyes narrowed as if she is able to sniff out his lies from the game in itself. Brindlekit tags in as the part of SkyClan's leader, but it seems like she doesn't quite know how to play this game. Rivuletkit tries to help.

"Oh, Brindlestar - a full nursery? Well - well wouldn't you like to know that Darkstar has been scheming behind your back!?" Rivuletkit hops to her paws, holding one accusatorily towards the ShadowClan leader. "He's been telling all of the other leaders that he's gonna steal all of your kits! Steal them, and make them eat mud...!" She stirs the pot eagerly, excited to continue this game of pretend with some of her denmates.

And then... her sister comes along. Algaestar of AlgaeClan. Rivuletkit strains to not frown, but even she cannot hide the swift lash of her own tail. She's almost the fool to fall for it, to point out the flaws in the way the other plays. Instead, she scoots closer to Brindlekit, and her paw lifts to point at her sister next, "And Algaestar plans to take land from me, to build her false Clan. Isn't that crazy!?" She shoots her sister a look, an exaggerated frown plastered onto her features.​

 

[stormkit.]

Stormkit doesn't like playing Gathering with the others. The older kits are too pushy, and don't let her have her own way. Case in point: Rivuletkit was always RiverClan's leader, because she was five moons and always liked starting games of Gathering. She never shared! Maybe if she was thoroughly beaten in her own game, an alliance with her littermate formed, she would learn to share leadership of RiverClan with the other kits. Black-and-white paws lead her to stand by the blue tortie.

She's the smallest of the group, even if Dark-kit is only a little older, but Stormkit draws herself up to her full height and declares, "WindClan will work with AlgaeClan! We can share RiverClan's land."

Just for good measure, Stormkit - Stormstar - then pokes her tongue out at Rivuletkit.
