THERE'S A STARMAN, WAITING IN THE SKY
Being only 3 moons old meant the most exciting part of Seedkit's daily routine was flipping over rocks. Every day, from sunrise to sundown, he would circle the confines of camp and tirelessly paw at stones until their mystical undersides were revealed. It wasn't much, but it was honest work. What bug will it be this time? A Beatle? An ant? A centipede, if he was lucky? Seedkit hoped for all of the above (although he was partial to slugs himself).
However today was special. Seedkit had just about explored every corner of the camp, but the warrior's den was something he avoided at all cost. Warriors are big and scary. Their ears fit their head and they know what big words like "incredulous" mean. Today was the day though, he was going to flip all the rocks near their den. Where did this sudden inspiration come from? The day prior, while munching on some most delicious fish, Seedkit came to the horrifying realization there was an untapped bug potential behind the warriors den. He had always been so overcome with his fear of the cats sleeping in the warrior's den, that he'd never stopped to think about the warrior's den itself.
Waking up nice and early, Seedkit looked up at the overcast sky and smiled. Perfect bug weather. Turning to his left (or perhaps it was his right? he had yet to learn the difference) he took a cautious step towards the den, and then another, and then another. Until there he was, standing before the gaping entrance to the warrior's den. Sleeping toms and she-cat alike were oblivious to Seedkit's presence, and he would rather it stay that way. Creeping stealthily past them, he found his way to the back of the den. There, in the dim early morning lighting, he spotted a nice, big stone. All his for turning. With some not-so-clever footwork and a whole lot of grunting, there it was.
The biggest slug Seedkit had ever seen, possibly the biggest in the world for all he knew. He stumbled to the side, rolling over such a big rock had taken some out of him, but the sight of this slug made him feel as though he were about to faint. Trying his best to stabilize and re-support himself with his comically large paws, Seedkit marveled at his new friend. Head tilting to the side, Seedkit stumbled a little closer. "Hello," he honked, a bit louder than expected. The slug stayed still, not even acknowledging his presence. Seedkit was usually the quiet type, but bugs tended to bring out his rowdy side. "HELLO!" he fully yelled this time. The slug lazily flickered its antenna. Seedkit stumbled back into a sitting position and watched his new best friend as it wiggled around. Yeah, this was gonna be a great day.
