Dayfall
Windclan Warrior
“Daddy!” Baileyakit padded after him, causing the two-toned ginger tom to look back towards her and chuckled and stopped. Allowing the small ginger and brown molly to catch up with him, she pouted slightly “You’re too fast! Please slow down.” Baileyakit asked politely to which Dayfall smiled softly and nodded. His daughter was always so polite and proper, Dayfall certainly knew he wasn’t from him but Cactusbloom teaching her these proper manners.
“I’m sorry, I’ll make sure that we’re at the same pace.” Dayfall reassured her, leaning down to give a kiss on her forehead. Fatherhood had changed Dayfall, certainly for the better. Looking at the clearing, he remembered all of the childhood memories that he participated in with his littermate Pine, along with Desertstar’s kits. Although Baileyakit was the only child, she certainly wasn’t alone. “Tinykit, are you coming?” Dayfall asked, looking back at the ginger she kit who was at the entrance.
The small kit had held some a resemblance to Tinyflame that it was unreal. Upon seeing Tinykit, it had affected Dayfall at that moment, as he still wasn’t completely moved on from her death. It was Dayfall who had suggested the name to Airheart, who gladly wanted to give tribute to their mother. He sometimes wondered if Tinyflame had started a new life as Tinykit.. But hey, Starclan worked in mystery ways. Baileyakit had taken a liking to Tinykit, and would often ask her to play out of Airheart’s litter. It was perhaps that their small sizes made the small brown and ginger molly comfortable with Tinykit.
“Tinykit, Daddy promised that we can paint some rocks.” Baileyakit said, looking at her father who needed. Baileyakit was always so gentle and proper towards everyone, it made Dayfall wonder how his other daughter.. Barleykit was. It certainly caused some aches in his heart that he couldn’t eat hi his other daughter grow up, but unfortunately it was how life was dealt towards him. Going towards a couple of berries that were laid out on a leaf, he let the two kits sit beside him to choose which rocks were deemed worthy of the collection that he stored over the years while he smashed the berries to paste.
“Daddy says that he’s been collecting over the years, I wonder if this rock was here when he was a baby.. That’s a long time!” Baileyakit squeaked as looked at a blue rock. Dayfall looked over at the rock “Grandpa Hailgaze gave that one to me, it was from Riverclan.” He mentioned and nodded in approval “Grandma Tinyflame gave me this one when I turned 4 moons” He said looking at the reddish stone nearby and beckoned his head towards the direction of a mossy green stone “While Mama Cactusbloom found this one with me at 5 moons.” He said, allowing the kits to choose which stone they wanted.
