They said the the nursery was the safest and best place to be. Brackenkit didn't think so. He thought that it was just full of crying kittens and overly happy cats. It wasn't that he didn't like that stuff, or that he was mean or anything. It was just that he didn't feel the same way towards the nursery as everyone else did. In fact all he wanted to do was become and apprentice and gain his freedom.
The black and brown tom had awoken from his slumber at around noon and was currently sitting outside and enjoying the warm sun and the soft breeze that was blowing through the Iceclan camp. Brackenkit just sat there and watched as warriors and apprentices walked back and forth, before soon there was barely anyone left in camp. The slight echo of playing kits reached his ears. You should make friends. You will never make friends this way. He thought with a sigh.

The tiny black she-kit slowly opened her right eye, which was green. Then her left eye, which was blue, opened as the bright sunlight streamed through the nursery entrance. I hate mornings, the she-kit thought, shaking her head and getting to her paws.
Secretkit preferred the darkness. Her pelt blended in easily with the night. She hoped that one day, she could be a great night hunter. One day.
Her eyes caught sight of a tom sitting at the entrance. She tilted her head to the side a bit, before sitting next to the tom, who was actually a bit bigger than her, which made her feel intimidated and shy. Talk to him, Secretkit, he's a kit, he can't hurt you, she thought, finally speaking up. "Hello."

Brackenkit sat there for another few moments and continued to watch as the camp became almost deserted, barren like. The little black and brown tom shook his head and flicked his tail back and forth, creating a cloud of dust. After a while he stopped moving his tail and, as the dust cloud settled, he saw a kit sitting there. He tilted his head and squinted his eyes. Was he just seeing things or was there actually a kit sitting there? The dust settled and, as he thought, there was a real she kit sitting in front of him.
Oh and she was talking to him. He kept his gaze calm and smiled. Ah hey. My name is Brackenkit. And who might you be? Asked the little tom softly as he looked down at the much younger she kitten. Well you wanted a friend. Now what are you going to do? Brackenkit thought, waiting for the she cat to respond. Oh and my mother is Petalfur. My father is Ashfrost. |

Huh. He seems friendly enough, Secretkit thought, feeling a little braver now. "I'm Secretkit," she meowed, quite proudly, actually. "My mother is Fallensnow." She decided that was all she would tell the tom, though she kind of wanted to mention how she got the name Secretkit. She sneezed as dust settled on her nose, peering at Brackenkit with her heterochromatic eyes. "In case you didn't notice, one of my eyes is green and the other is blue," the she-kit meowed, blinking. "And I like the darkness. My black pelt blends in very well with it, after all."

Brackenkit sat there as the she kit talked. He tilted his head when she said her name. Secretkit? Interesting name. He thought. When the kit continued to talk, he stayed quiet until she finished. She had told him a lot. Given a lot about herself up. Why? Well he didn't have to know why, he just knew that he wouldn't do the same thing... Just not yet. Maybe later.
Brackenkit nodded his head. It's a pleasure to meet you Secretkit. He mewed, not knowing what else to say. I to blend into the darkness very well. One good thing for having black fur right? He laughed and kneaded the ground with his front paws. He wasn't very good with conversations, as you could probably tell already. He was just going to let her keep the conversation going. |

"Yup, it's definitely good to have black fur when it comes to the darkness," Secretkit meowed, laughing. He looks a bit uncomfortable... Maybe he's just not good at talking. The she-kit's eyes darted to her paws, she felt frustrated, not because of Brackenkit, but because of herself. She really didn't know what to say. "Grrr... I wish I were an apprentice already, at least, then maybe I could finally get out of this boring nursery," she hissed, looking quite fierce all of a sudden. "I could do so much more fun stuff as an apprentice. I'm hoping I'll be trained to be a night hunter. When I become a warrior, that's what I want to do. I'll hunt at night, attack at night, and they'll call me Secretmoon: the greatest night hunter of all the Clans!" The she-kit giggled, looking up at the sky. "...of course, such a dream is just too much to hope for."

Brackenkit nodded his head. He listened to what Secretkit had to say. Again she went talking about things that she wanted. Maybe it would be better if he tried to converse with her than keep quiet. Well. He would try. There was no knowing what would happen, or if this would end good or bad.
A night hunter hmm? That sounds fun. If you wouldn't mind, could I join you? Mewed the tom with a smile. He wanted her to feel comfortable around him. He wanted friends, and that would only happen if he accepted the fact that he had to talk. Dreams are only as big as you make them. And if you work for them, they can happen. I think you could become the best night hunter in all the clans if you truly want to. There is no one stopping you. |

The black she-kit smiled, already she could tell that she liked this tom. "Heh, you're right. There's no one stopping me from achieving my dreams! And of course, you could join too! We could be the greatest night hunters in all the Clans! Together!" Secretkit grinned brightly, she was getting pretty excited. "I honestly think we can do it," she purred, a look of contentment on her face.

Brackenkit smiled and dipped his head. He was glad that he could help. His whiskers twitched as he sensed her excitement. With another smile he opened his mouth to reply. Yeah. It would be an honor to be a night hunter with you. Together we would be even better. Imagine us as warriors. You as Secretmoon and me... Ah... Bracken... Brackenflame. Laughed the tom as he set his gaze on her. |

"Brackenflame! That warrior name is so awesome!" the she-kit cried enthusiastically. "We'll be a great pair! I can see it now..." she purred, resting her head on her paws. "Us two, it'd be an awesome combination, really. Uh... Hey... There's something I wanna ask... Would you maybe... Like to be friends with me?" Secretkit asked, turning her nervous gaze away from the tom. "I-I mean, it's okay if you don't want to..."

The conversation was going along nicely. He had never really thought about his warrior name before, but Secret really seemed to like the name Brackenflame. To him, it sounded pretty cool as well. Bracken opened his jaws to reply, when she asked if he wanted to be friends. Was it normal for someone to ask to be friends? He didn't know. He had none. That would be one of the reasons he would say yes right? Ah Secretkit. I... I would be honored to be your friend. If you agree to be mines. Laughed the tom awkwardly. |

The she-kit smiled brightly, her eyes glittering with happiness. "Of course I'd be honored to be your friend as well," she meowed, giving Bracken another sweet smile. "And you and I, we'll be the greatest night hunters around! Ooh! I know! We could give ourselves, like, our own special team name!" Secretkit grinned excitedly, resting her head on her paws again. "A dynamic duo sort of team name!"
