Stormpaw paced around the camp, grey tail twitching. She felt half-dead with boredom. She had already been hunting today, and she didn't know what else there was to do.
This is stupid, the apprentice thought angrily. she looked around the camp, wondering if any of the apprentices wanted to do something, but she didn't get her hopes up. None of those goody-goodies would want to do anything exciting. She sighed loudly and resumed her pacing, waiting for something to happen.

Shadowjumper exited the warrios's den to see Stormpaw in the center of camp. Hello Stormpaw how are you today? She asked not seeing that the appertince was either mad or bored. Standing next to the appertince she looked at the enterance of camp.

Stormpaw blinked in surprise as Shadowjumper walked over to her. "Oh, hi..." She batted idly at a twig, poking it with her front paw. "Um... I'm fine."
What a joke.
"How are you?" she asked, trying to be polite. A whirling leaf caught her eyes and the young apprentice leaped for it, catching it in her paws. She purred delightedly, staring at her catch... and then remembered that she was in the middle of a conversation.
"Oops... Sorry." Stormpaw grinned sheepishly.

A kit suddenly shot out of the nursery, running into Stormpaw's side. The she-kit fell on her back, blinking in a daze. "Sorry." She mewed to Stormpaw. The kit stood up and attacked Stormpaw's tail, trying to catch it in her paws. "I'm bored!!" She yowled to the whole camp. She stopped and looked at the two older cats. "I'm Shiningkit!" She gave her pure white pelt a brisk lick, and looked back up. "Who are you?"

Stormpaw blinked in surprise as a fluffy white scrap shot out of the nursery and ran into her. For a brief second, the apprentice thought about hissing and telling Shiningkit to be more careful, but decided against it. I guess that wouldn't be nice...
She looked down at the little kitten, unable to resist grinning. "Hey, Shiningkit. I'm Stormpaw. How are you?"

Shiningkit looked around the camp. "I'm bored." She repeated. She looked at Stormpaw with wide, hopeful blue eyes. "Will you play with me? No one else will!"

Stormpaw was taken slightly aback. "Um..." At first, she had no intention of playing with the kitten. All the other apprentices will tease me, and I'll never hear the end of it! But as she saw the hopeful look in Shiningkit's eyes, she knew that to refuse would just be cruel.
A brief memory tugged at her mind, of when she had been a kit, and none of the others had wanted to play with her because she was part rogue. That hurt. A lot.
Shrugging off the cobwebs of the past, she turned to face Shiningkit again. "Sure, I'll play with you." She shot an apologetic glance and Shadowjumper, not wanting to hurt the queen's feelings.

Shiningkit jumped in the air. "Yay!" She jumped on Stormpaw's back, batting at her ear with sheathed claws. "Finally, someone who plays with me!" Then her tail and ears drooped and her eyes dimmed. "Honestly, I don't even know what a half clan cat is." She looked up at Stormpaw with curious eyes. "Why does everyone call me a half clan cat??"

Stormpaw let out a yelp of surprise as Shiningkit landed on her back. "Ooof..." She staggered and collapsed to the ground. Her limbs splayed out and she lay limp, pretending to be dead.
"Honestly, I don't even know what a half clan cat is. Why does everyone call me a half clan cat??"
Stormpaw blinked. That was unexpected. She stammered briefly, unsure what to say. How much should I tell her? Should I tell her anything? Why is she even asking me this???
"A half-clan cat is a cat whose parents come from two different Clans," she meowed finally, blue eyes studying the little kitten. "I... I don't know why they call you that..."
Are you half-Clan? she wondered, staring intently at Shiningkit. Did your father abandon you... like my father did?

Shiningkit blinked and studied the ground. "Oh..." She looked back to the nursery with confused eyes. "But both my mama and my papa are from EmberClan! At least, that's what my mama told me. Papa was killed by a badger when I was three moons old."

"But both my mama and my papa are from EmberClan! At least, that's what my mama told me."
Stormpaw scuffed one paw across the ground, embarrassed. "Well..." She honestly didn't know what to say. It sounds like her mother was just making an excuse... But I don't want to say that of it's not true.
She sighed annoyed with the muddle her thoughts had become. An image of Oakpaw sprang to her mind and she purred happily... Until her brain caught up with her heart. He's from StormClan, you mousebrain.
Her ears twitched as she remembered that Shiningkit was probably waiting for an answer. "Um... I don't know. So, what shall we play?" she asked, wanting to change the subject as quickly as possible.

Shiningkit's eyes lit up as she sprang back up onto all four paws. "Let's play....tag!" she jabbed a forepaw foreward, poking Stormpaw's shoulder lightly. "Tag, you're it!" And she ran away, squealing in delight.

A wide grin flashed across Stormpaw's muzzle. Now this is more like it! Energy rushed through her as she raced after Shiningkit, and she found herself laughing happily. "I'm gonna get you!"

"Probably!" Shiningkit yelled over her shoulder without looking back. "But it won't be easy!" She stopped abruptly, spinning around and shooting under Stormpaw's paws.

Stormpaw leaped to the side, desperately trying not to be tripped up by the little kitten. Now THAT would be embarrassing... Grinning enthusiastically, she whirled around to chase after Shiningkit.
"Oh, yeah?" she called, narrowing her eyes. "Cheeky little kit!" She put on an extra burst of speed, racing towards the kit.
