Description

Leafkit was doing his best not to feel anything right now. Just on the task ahead. Escape was the most important- listening to mom was the most important. He wasn't going to sit by and watch his family be hurt again. He'd been a vocal part of the plan, he felt. When Softchirp first told them more about the patrols for the night- he'd wanted to leave as soon as possible.

Because if all those warriors were gone.. Who would notice? No one. Not until it was too late. He didn't want to risk seeing Shadestep again. Another cat who clearly understood nothing. Fitting quite neatly into the category of cats that were always wrong. A category that had once existed solely for Marblenose but was now beginning to expand to contain a greater portion of the colony.

He was just glad that neither Softchirp or Spiderpaw fell into it (he consciously choose not to think on Yarrowpaw, only knowing a bit of what had happened after he'd turned his back).

He hoped that Snowthistle wasn't in that category either. A cat with a family.. Leafkit hoped he was nothing like Marblenose. It was ultimately the deciding factor for him. Sharptalon seemed almost too much like Marblenose- too uncertain. If it came down to it Leafkit wasn't confident that Sharptalon would let them go if he caught them... Leafkit hoped that Snowthistle would.

Which led to now. Them grouped up near the entrance, pelts brushing. Foxkit was wriggling in his grasp- because of course Leafkit had volunteered to carry her. Unwilling to push the responsibility onto the already tired Maplekit and Pigeonkit (Nor was he about to ask Spiderpaw for anymore than they had already asked of him).

His focus so much on the wriggling Foxkit, as he hummed a tune he remembered from Robinspirit, that he'd barely noticed them moving forward. Only the brush of someone's fur against his an indication to walk forward. He trusted them to guide him as he kept the cranky Foxkit quiet. Who'd only just started to fall asleep when they'd roused her once more. Once we get out of here... He thought, We'll let you sleep as long as you'd like, Foxy
