Jadepaw's Story



Chapter 1



"Hurry up Spottedkit, he's going to leave without us!" A young kit excitedly bounced around another, slightly smaller she-kit. Her white fur was fully groomed, and she had green eyes that sparkled like jades.
"Hush, Jadekit. Let your sister sleep. She was up late last night with a tummy ache." Came a very tired mew a few pawsteps away. "You needn't always drag your siblings with you, go play with Hailkit yourself." As Jadekit's fur puffed up and she opened her mouth to retort, the larger queen brushed her tail over her head affectionately. "Go on, I'll send Spottedkit out later to find you." She purred.
Jadekit gave in, and rushed outside, just as the blue-gray tailtip of Hailkit disappeared behind the bramble screen. She mumbled a "thank you Bluefire…" as she went.
"Hailkit, wait up!" Jadekit shouted, catching up to the older kit. He scanned her quietly, and pricked his small ears.
"Where's Spottedkit? I thought you said she was coming too!" He meowed, looking down at her. He shook his head. "Nevermind, we can play on our own!" He mewed, then took off, headed straight for the medicine cat's den, Jadekit in tow.
The sun was fairly high in the sky, though half the clan was still asleep. The other half were out on patrol, or quietly sat in the shade of the high rock, sharing tongues. It was warm outside, and cicadas chirped in the trees outside the camp.
As they approached the medicine cat's den, Jadekit picked up three familiar voices behind the screen of vines that shielded the medicine cat's den from the rest of the camp. She broke off from Hailkit for a moment to peek in, and spotted the medicine cat, Yellowtail, and her apprentice, Scatterpaw, speaking to another cat, whom she recognized to be her father.
She ducked her head out, deciding he was probably there for an eye check up, and made her way behind the medicine cats den. the warriors den was right next door, the two dens were squished together quite closely, but there was a small squeezing space, just big enough for a small apprentice to fit through. Jadekit maneuvered through the hole easily and popped out the other side, bumping right into Hailkit.
"There you are!" He squeaked in surprise. "I thought a Caveclan cat had gotten you!" He bent down in a clumsy battle stance, growling. "I was gonna go beat 'em up!" He squeaked, pouncing on a green leaf. "I was gonna shred their tails off!"
Jadekit giggled in amusement. "Caveclan cats would probably burn to death in sunlight like this. Creepy cave-dwellers!" She puffed out her chest. "Besides, I could've fought them off on my own!" A sly smile grew on her face, and she pounced at Hailkit with her paws outstretched. "Just like this!"
The two kits wrestled together in the dirt until a third cat poked her head through, just as Hailkit pinned Jadekit down. "Don't worry, Jadekit-star! I've brought reinforcements!" Spottedkit squished through the hole, followed by a dark gray kit and a spiky furred brown kit. "Graykit, Woodkit, attack!" The three charged at Hailkit, but just before they reached him, a fourth cat appeared through the hole and tackled Graykit, a very startled Woodkit, and Spottedkit in turn.
"The evil Eaglekit-star!" Hailkit yowled. "You've come at last!" As Hailkit was distracted, Jadepaw pushed up with all her might and flipped him over, so she was on top. She kept a firm hold so Hailkit couldn't get up, while her 'warriors' held off Eaglekit.
Finally, Hailkit stopped wriggling, on the other side of the clearing, so did Eaglekit. "Alright, fine, you all win." Eaglekit sighed, pushing the others off, and giving his brown and white pelt a shake.
The group of four came together and began prancing around happily. Woodkit much more clumsy than the others, tripped over a twig and fell flat on his face.
As he began to wail, an angry yowl sounded from the other side of their little entrance. Their game was over.

Later that evening, as the kits curled down into their beds, sleepy from todays games and antics, Hailpaw made his way over to Jadepaw's nest and prodded her awake. The tired she-kit groaned and rolled over, scowling at the tom. "What do you want?" She growled, closing her eyes. "Can't you see your new leader's trying to sleep?"
Hailpaw purred and curled up next to her. Jadepaw not-so-secretly curled up closer to her friend. He was nice and warm, even though he had short, sleek fur. He was slightly bigger than her, and curled around her protectively.
"I'm only protecting you, Jadekit-star!' He squeaked playfully.
Jadekit purred, but didn't give much more of a response, simply curling tighter into a ball, willing sleep to overtake her small, warn out body. Hailkit prodded her.
"I'm leaving the nursery tomorrow you know. I'll be an apprentice, I'll be Hailpaw!" He purred, eyes gleaming. Jadekit still didn't pay much attention, simply drifted off into a light sleep.
She heard a sigh against her ear, and felt Hailpaw stand up. "I love you Jadekit, I'll see you around more in a couple moons." He purred, then walked away, back to his own nest and curled up to sleep.
Jadepaw roused sleepily. "I love you, too, Hailkit." She muttered, then sleep crashed over her.
First chapter of Jadepaw's Story. :heart:

How do you indent?
And center?
This looks so freaking terrible on here, it makes me angry.

Someone PLEASE HELP.

Aside from the terrible ugly formatting deviantart makes me use, I'm proud of this.

Usually descriptions won't be this long. :1 But since it's the first chapter it gets a description hehe

Introducing...the majority of the main characters! Some are somewhat subtle..but they've still been introduced.

Enjoy! I hope y'all like it, and look forward to the next chapter.

I apologize how choppy it is, it's been a while since I've written legit stories and not roleplays v.v

Write more. ;n; Please. YOU NEED TO JUST WRITE MORE STUFF DOESN'T MATTER WHAT IT IS I REALLY LIKE YOUR STYLE AND THERE'S NOT ENOUGH OF IT ON DEVIANTART ASDFGHJKLL DHLSDJHKL

On formatting, you can either copy 'n paste into the thing and just trawl through the document adding spaces where dA deleted them, which is what I do and it's not reliable XD, or... I THINK you could convert the word doc into a pdf, and then you can upload that, and it'll have all the formatting without you having to code it. I THINK. >.< Correct me if I'm wrong.
