:*¨༺✧ ♛ ✧༻¨*: ❝ the wind said go ❞ ⚜ leaving camp srp ❞ ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ after washing my tired body ” “ turn on the boring TV ” 』 in the stillness and serenity of the nursery, all of the kits ans queens were sleeping soundly. only the occasional light snore and slight twitch caused by a shiver interrupting the peace. however, as soon as the light peeked through the horizon, a fluffy grey kitten stirred awake. blinking awake, he sat up — careful to not disturb the sleeping mother and sister. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ uninteresting news today, again ” “ words I can't understand ” 』 today was the day — or rather the morning — to conduct his scheme. he's been planning for almost a moon. he needed time to review and go over things. but today was finally when he would be able to take action. ever since he arrived in his new home, there was one rule every kit had to follow — well, at least one of the most important rules among the other smaller ones — but this one always bothered him. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ what was the most important task? ” “ I wanted to do so many things ” 』 sorrowkit always had it in him, coursing through his veins. the desire to explore. to step out into where not cat has gone. only for his dreams to come to a halt — when he learned that going outside of camp as a kit was not allowed. he never understood it. if he stayed away from areas prone to predators, then why couldn't he go wherever he liked? what's the point of living in the forest if one couldn't run freely in it, weaving in between trees with the wind blowing against their pelt. surely there was a reason for that. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ but I kept being chased by time ” “ There are so many things in this world ” 』 finding out the answer always bothered him. what if there was something out there — a place out there where it was new-leaf all the time, and everything and everyone was at peace, living in harmony. it would be "like starclan" or however the elders described a magical place. starclan. the word flashed through his mind. he never heard it until he moved into the clans. he was still skeptical about it. but from the stories he heard, it was paradise. maybe this was how he would figure out what it was. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ but there wasn't a space around for me to rest without worrying ” “ just stretching my feet and lying down ” 』 sori let out a light gasp. he could kill two birds with one stone — if he were to make it out of camp. it was brilliant, and now was the perfect time to do so, without any cats to stop him in his tracks. looking around to check if the coast was clear, he quietly rushed out of the warm den, instantly hit with the chilly air from the night before. brushing it off, he continued on his way. after all his fur was fluffy enough. the coat would protect him from the nipping cold. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ doesn't make my eyes close ” “ even if I close my eyes, it will happen again ” 』 stopping right before the exit, he hesitated. would he regret going out? there was no one to see, meaning no one would know where he would be doing his time outside of the camp. the homeliness of the nursery reached out for him. calling for him, to come back and lay in its open arms. he almost submitted to it, until it came to a halt as a fresh cool breeze blew by. it reminded him of the freedom he will face, the answers he will find. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ I sleep without dreams ” “ every time I wake up from sleep, short breaths ” 』 after realizing that fact, there was no reason for anymore waiting. so he took off and scurried quickly out of the camp, before anyone noticed his presence. as soon as he stepped foot into the open area outside of the camp, a feeling lingered in his stomach. despite still being on riverclan territory — he didn't feel the safe environment around him. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ momentary dizziness ” “ meaningless day, at the end of it, is a repeat, yeah ” 』 uneasiness stirred in his stomach. would he be fine? nothing would surprise him. ignoring his gut, he continued on his adventure, trying to focus on his surrounding rather than worrying. earlier, the gentle breeze felt like sleeping on a freshly-soaked patch of moss after a day full of fun and adventure. now it just reminded him of the impending danger he may face if he strayed off too far. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹
˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ endless fight, endless sigh, dragging yawn ” “ nerves on the edge, words sharp as knives ” 』 but he couldn't go back. not just yet. he still had answers. but at the same time, he was scared of the unknown. it seemed like a good idea then — but now that it was reality unfolding itself, anything was possible. what if a snake attacked him? what if there was a thunderstorm? perhaps if he walked faster, he would be able to be answered sooner. he instilled that mindset in his head, no longer enjoying the scenery, but hoping that his little exploration would go faster. ˖⁺‧₊⟡₊˚⊹ 『 “ bored of all of this ” “ the day I forced my way into the dark room ” 』 that made it worse — because now he wasn't just nervous — he was panicking. bad endings raced across his head. and, without watching where he was going, he stumbled straight into a spider web, which frightened him to his wit's end. shaking his pelt to take off the trap, he let out a screech. he scrambled back to the clan, as fast as his tiny legs coud take him. back into his mom's familiar embrace, he yearned. at least one of his questions were answered, why kits shouldn't leave camp. 『 “ did anyone look back at me ? ” “ today, I barely made it through the day ” 』 :*¨༺✧ ♛ ✧༻¨*: proof of successful rolling - https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/25959348/comments/#comments-296511317 :*¨༺✧ ♛ ✧༻¨*:
