Name: Briarkit/paw/storm; brown tabby she-cat

"Alright, kiddos. I'm Briarkit. Sit the heck down and listen to what I've got ta say. You know that Warrior code we've been taught? It's got some dumb rules, let me tell you that. Like, the Clan leader's word being the warrior code? Does it count if the leader's a complete idiot who can't tell his rear from his mouth... if you get what I'm going at. Heh, of course not. How innocent. But really, no matter how dumb I think most of the Clan is, one StarClan blessed, multi-lived, likely egotistical, mouse-brained, ball of fuzz and arrogance is not gonna tell me what to do. If I think what the leader says is stupid, I'm gonna argue. 'Word of the leader is the warrior code' my tail! Once upon a time, a Clan was so cowardly and mouse-hearted that they couldn't talk back to a leader that was clearly endangering the entire Clan. Like, you and me? Kid, we could be dead by now, slain by big 'ol "what I say goes" leader guy. I mean, for most of these mewling kits and hyperactive, annoying, immature brats we call "friends" and "family", I honestly wouldn't care. But cats like me? Heck, let me mature first. But that doesn't mean ya get to go tellin' me what to do just because you're a leader!

Big 'ol "what I say goes" leader guy made kits fight, gave them apprentice names at 3 moons old, warriors by 6 moons old... That whole thing. So who the heck would let leaders keep that up! While I think most of the kids around us are annoying as heck, I sure don't want them fallin' all over my paws, bleeding out and stuff. But cats like you and I? We should at least be able to hunt. Let us out of camp, dammit! I say, let us out! I'm pretty sure a mouse won't gobble me up. Or a squirrel. What's it gonna do, crack me open like an acorn? Kits shouldn't be apprenticed till 6 moons, sure, but that doesn't mean we can't hunt like, right near camp! Next thing you know, leader guy's gonna tell us we can't even leave the nursery, then next, he'll tell us we can't leave our nests! Maybe this guy shouldn't be let outta camp, heh?

Alright kid, you look like you're gonna pass out. Not finding my rant inspiring? Psshh. Whatever, but next time you want me to sneak you outta camp so you can chase a butterfly around instead of being cool and catching some prey, you find some other cat and hope your tail doesn't end up in the leader's den. Next time you want me to pick appart the dumb code, you know where you'll find me... Or not. I might be hunting... or fighting a mutant squirrel. Since, ya know, there's gotta be some of those around if they won't let us out of camp."
