"Well then I don't see Shade or Spotty or even Comet here right now so until I get an explanation I'm gonna sit right here" She decided stubbornly sitting down and wrapping her tail around her paws and a comforatble gesture. There was now a defiant gleam in her amber eyes as she looked toward IcyKit. "Whatever their reason for keeping it secret, I want to know now"

"Depends on your definition of stupid, Little Claws." Holmes meowed, lazily flicking a leaf off his pelt while still keeping an eye on VampireBat.

Icy just let out a grunt and looked away from her sister to look at Holmes. "I told you I don't liked being called Little Claws it's dumb" Icy growled her eyes narrowed at the older tom.

"Forgive me, IcyKit." Holmes' cool, calm attitude showed no clear remorse, and that he was just saying that to soothe IcyKit's temper. He didn't pay LeafKit a glance when she decided to protest.

LeafKit grumbled slightly, not really liking getting ignored very much. She shrugged though and put her front paws on Holmes's back so that she could see over his head to where IcyKit was sitting. Her head just barely came above the older and larger tom "Well, I say Little claws is better then Lil' Puff" She retorted lightly with a giggle.

"So you don't like your nickname now?" Holmes asked, smiling a little. "I thought you told me I could call you Little Puff if I prefered, which I do." The white-speckled toms tail bent around to touch LeafKit's shoulder.

Icy just shrugged nonchalantly, her blue eyes unfazed but still on fire like usual with a silent rage that no one not even her knew what caused it. She was always irritable, sometimes without not meaning to be. Icy looked back to the other tom wondering how long he was to keep quiet.

"No, I have no problem with it, but just tellin' Icy so she can cool down and feel better about hers" LeafKit replied sticking her tongue out at Holmes and then bouncing back down to the ground... If IcyKit had something to say LeafKit would no doubt be able to hear it so no need to stand on Holmes anymore. A leaf blew in the slight breeze and LeafKit instinctively changed directions and leaped on it with a purr of satisfacting at the crunching of the leaf between her paws.

Icy shook her head in silent disgust, "Still playin with leaves I see?" Her voice even, "When are you going to stop acting like a two year old?" Icy growled a insult that was not really meant to come out of her mouth like that.... it was just supposed to be in her mind. SHe looked to LEafkit.

If anyone turned their head to look back at VampireBat, they would notice he was no longer there. Where he sat seconds ago was already cold, and just the faintest of scents of blood and danger still hung in the air.
"Leafy? Icy?" came a familiar voice from the NatureClan side. SpottedPath appeared, padding out of a bunch of bushes. She was clearly following her kits scent, and when they spotted them, she shook her head in disappointment. Yet she felt relief. Thank StarClan they were safe.
But she could smell her grandfather's scent in the air. Not good.
"Ah, Holmes, I'm so glad you came to protect my little adventurous one," she mewed in a soft grateful tone. How did she knew this rogue? Well, the spirits she could hear were quite useful in times like this.
She then looked back hardly at her kits. "Explain. Now."
She glanced at CurledKit and EmeraldKit, making it clear they were in trouble, too.

LeafKit grinned totally ignoring IcyKit's comments... or maybe she just didn't hear, who knows with her... "Heya Mom! What is up?" She asked leaving the leaf behind and running up to her mother and looking up at her with her innocent amber eyes. "We was totally havin' fun! Great Grandad showed up and was talking and then Holmes showed up and we was talkin' and.... yeah then you showed up and now we're talkin'!" She squeaked in what she considered an explanation of what they'd been doing. "Oh and this is Holmes! Have you ever met Holmes before?! Well, this is him!" LeafKit then mewed enthusiastically before leaving SpottedPath and running back to Holmes, nearly tackling the older tom.... Well she just bounced off of him and landed on her back slightly dizzy.

The tortoiseshell queen couldn't help but smile.
"Yes, Leafy, I've heard of Holmes. Nice meeting you, rogue. It is good to know that there are good souls out there." And she dipped her head in greeting.
"Now, kits, why did you even leave camp in the first place? Especially Leafy and Icy! You, Willow and Hawk know very well that it is the only safe place for you guys," she scolded, keeping her eyes hard.

"Awwww... Mommy, They were planning on going out of camp so I wanted to too since all ya'll were still sleepin' and then its boring when ya'll ARE up... IcyKit just showed up like 2 minutes ago so I think she's fine, her paws are clean" LeafKit practically pleaded from where she lay in the grass still... "Hey that star is REALLY pretty" She meowed sidetracked once again as her eyes caught sight of an especially bright star in the dark sky.

Yes, and it was night. VampireBat-related cats that turn out like the assassin usually come out at night. Spotty didn't want her kits to turn out like their bloody great-grandfather in any way.
She bit her lip, blinked once, and said: "You're all grounded. Leafy, Icy, Curled and Emerald. For not being in camp. You will stay in the Nursery at all time for three days straight. No coming out for nothing else than to pee and stuffs."
It was said in a sharp way, clearly adding no arguments or else at the end.

LeafKit looked at her mother curiously and then shrugged as if it didn't matter "Okay momma, whatever you say" She squeaked not seeming at all disappointed... It hadn't seemed to phase her a bit. LeafKit had a feeling that her mom was going to get super mad at her by the end of the three days that they were grounded.

CurledKit opened his mouth to protest, thought better of it, and turned to sulk. Darn. They had almost gotten away with it.
Holmes nodded a greeting as well. "SpottedPath." he flicked his tail, touching LeafKit with it. "VampireBat decided to pay a visit. He seemed to want to convince IcyKit and LeafKit to come with him to the rogues."

LeafKit's paws flashed upward and gently grabbed hold of Holmes's tail. "I thought he was going to eat us" She meowed in a joking manner but something about her eyes made it seem almost as if she wasn't kidding this time... maybe she'd figured something out. She shrugged off her own words and kept 'attacking' Holmes's tail

Holmes flipped his tail back and forth for LeafKit to play with, watching her with amused and caring eyes. When VampireBat had been there, his blue eyes were unmoving, hard. Now them seemed to melt from being icy too warm.

LeafKit giggled and continued running after his tail in circles, doing more... advanced, for a kit.... as in not taking the easy way to get to her target but takning the longer slightly more challenging way to get to it. Thinking outside the box may be another way to say it. Instead of running straight for his tail she would jump over it and then pivot, finding it more fun that way for some reason. Her fluffy almost calico-like pelt was now standing on end in little spots where she would hit the ground and roll.

"Nice moves, Little Puff." Holmes commented. He seemed to have taken to praising LeafKit. StarClan knows how much better he would have done as a kit had he been praised.

((Good lord, lotza posts much 0.o))
EmeraldKit tapped CurledKit on the back of his head with her tail, having to stand up to do so because of the shortness of it. "Darn" she mewed under her breath to him. "So close!"

CurledKit shrugged and grinned mischeviously. "Next time." he whispered to her so SpottedPath or Holmes couldn't hear.

EmeraldKit flashed a devilish smile at CurledKit. "Totally" she whispered back in the same tone of voice!

SpottedPath had been deep in thought, after what Holmes told her of VampireBat's intentions. Coming back to herself, she quickly shook her head and sighed.
"Better get back to camp," she mewed, then glanced sternly at the kits. "Thanks again, Holmes. If you want to follow us back to camp, you're more than welcome." Her whiskers twitched in amusement as LeafKit attacked the rogue's tail.

EmeraldKit ever so silently took a small step backward, away from the adults. When she did this, she had her pelt brush CurledKit's. Maybe, just maybe. If they were very silent and careful, they could sneak away while the other cats weren't paying attention!
