Drifting Steadily

Chapter One
Adreniline. Fright Fun....

"I, OW, quit it, Foxkit, she's going to hear you!"

The shadows shifted mysteriously as two small figures ran scrufledly away. The gray tabby kept looking back, the russet one's eyes shifting paranoididly.

''Uh oh... please... Starclan save us....''

"Please, Foxkit, shut up, Brightkit'll find us," Driftkit begged his brother. Then he shreiked with surprise.

"Found ya," mewed Brightkit, popping up out of no where. Foxkit hissed and stepped backward, into Frostkit. They tumbled together in a bundle of fur.

Brightkit giggled mischiviously. "I win," she said, eyes shining.

'''OK. Back up.'''

'''Hey there! I'm Driftkit! And this-'''

"Brightkit, you cheated!" Foxkit whined as Frostkit, Brightkit's friend, shook dirt out of her pelt annoyedly.

"How?" she asked, puzzled.

Foxkit growled. "Don't you act innocent..."

Brightkit rolled her eyes. "I cheated by being good?"

"Yes..." Foxkit admitted. Driftkit sighed.

'''-is my family... not much, eh?'''

'''Brightkit... she's the smartest in our family... lofty, too, I might add. Almost a leader.'''

But hey;I'M the leader in these mousebrains of siblings....

'''Foxkit, he's goofy, IQ the number of MOUSEDUNG, a player... my best friend.'''

Flightstream, she's our mother.

Hopeless...

Stripestorm, he's our father.

Easy to see where Brightkit got her brains.

'''But Stripestorm didn't have the best mentor... he turned out to be a psycomaniac and busted Dad's spine.'''

Now he's empty and done for.

Well, that's my family in a nutshell.
