Cygnus's pale eyes focused intently on the prey arranged ahead in front of him, his tail slowly waving from side to side. The kit's brow furrowed as he tried to recall the names of the prey in front of him.
"Mouse," he meowed slowly, placing a paw on the small brown animal, "frog." He touched the next. That was an easy one. His attention shifted to a vole and his jaw shifted, a tooth jutting out the side as he struggled to name it. What was that one? He couldn't remember.
The kittypet kit loved clan life so far, it was just like all the stories he'd heard from his father and grandmother. He knew they wouldn't be staying for long before they went home, but he was happy to spend as much time in the clan as he could before returning to his housefolk. He wanted to remember everything about the clans he could, and their strange prey was hard to nail down.
Orion tilted his head to the side as he stared down at the prey from where he sat beside his brother. Unlike Cygnus, the golden tabby kit didn't feel the need to dedicate everything about clan life to memory; didn't really need to, if his sibling was already doing it. He was simply happy to meet the cats that their father called family, and casually take note of the similarities and differences between their ways of life. Though, he supposed, there were a couple of things about Waterclan that he was genuinely interested in learning; their prey being one of them.
You never know when that knowledge could come in handy.
He leaned forward to give the vole an inquisitive sniff. "It doesn't really look all that different from a mouse," he noted, turning his green eyes back to Cygnus in confusion. It smelled kinda different from a mouse, so it had to be something different, but he couldn't remember the name either. It wasn't a mouse, or a rat, and definitely not a mole... "I can't think of it. Do ya think we should ask somebody?"
"But what's similar to a mouse? It's it a... a squirrel?" He couldn't quite recall what the mythical squirrel looked like but he wasn't sure if there was any in this kill pile either. The pile itself was mostly fish and it had taken a while just to find this small selection of land prey to look at. Cygnus had already tried looking at the fish and had quickly gotten lost, they all looked similar, and in the end he figured it wasn't that important to know the small differences between them.
"Yeah, maybe we should," he agreed. If Orion couldn't get it either then they probably had no hope unless they got very lucky. "But who? Should we ask one of the other kits or the warriors? I guess Dad would know, but he's probably busy."

Splashpaw had been watching the kits from her sunny patch not far from the two kits, amusement sparkling in her sharp blue eyes as they each gathered around the vole unable to decide what it was. She wanted to whisper it to the wind and hope the name would reach the brothers, but she waited to see if perhaps they would figure it out, her ears perked up as they spoke of who they could ask for help and with that she lifted herself to her paws.
She was much smaller than a normal apprentice her age, having come to terms with it she never let her little frame stop her. "Hey there Orion, Cygnus." She smiled at them and sat down curling her tail over her paws. "Do you need help?" She glanced at the line of prey and then back to the toms. Splashpaw would help any cat she could, it's who she was and that would never change.
"Nah, definitely not a squirrel. They've got big fluffy tails like cousin Squirrelpool's, remember?" Orion smiled, proud that he had picked up that bit of information while bonding with his other relatives, though that didn't really help the pair narrow down what the mystery prey was. He was about to respond to Cygnus when the amused voice decided to answer for them. Glancing over his shoulder, he saw a she-cat who looked a little bit older than them, and chuckled sheepishly. "Yeah...neither of us can figure it out. Could you help us, Miss...." The kit's voice trailed off as he searched his mind, trying to see if the apprentice had been introduced before. She seemed to know their names, but that wasn't surprising considering how big a deal Waterclan made their father's return.

Splashpaw smiled and stood up, she moved to stand in between the kit and sat down once more. Turning her blue gaze to Orion she saw the question in his eyes and realized she had not introduced herself, most of the clan knew about the kits because of their father but how would they know who she was. A little embarrassed she gave her mottled black and white chest a few licks regaining her composure and purred. "My name is Splashpaw, it's nice to meet you both." A warm smile spread across her lips before she spoke again. "I'd be happy to help you, that's the one you can't think of right?" She flicked her speckled tail towards the Vole in question.
"Oh yeah," he mused, remembering their cousin. He looked up at Splashpaw with a smile, surprised but happy to see her; his face was pleasant when he smiled, soft with kithood and his mother's graceful features. "Nice to meet you," he responded, thinking paw means apprentice, right? He tapped his tail and followed her gesture, then nodded. "We can't think of what it is, only what it isn't," Cyngus admitted.

Splashpaw nodded and her own smile grew seeing the happiness on the kits face. "That's a vole, they are similar to mice but carry a different scent and altered features." She stood and padded to the prey moving the mouse in the lineup so that it was now beside the vole, both had short brown fur but the voles shape was shorter and rounder. "Why don't you take in both of their scents, it will be easier to know in the future if you work out the differences in the two." She stepped to the side so both kits would have room to stand in front of the two rodents.
"Vole, of course," Cygnus echoed with a shake of his head, the word sounding familiar again. He studied the two pieces of prey intently. "Look, this one's muzzle is different," he noted to Orion, though he wasn't sure if that was a species difference or just because the vole had been under the heavy weight of a large fish. He crept closer and took a big sniff of both scents, and his eyes widened at the difference. "I see!" he exclaimed, and looked up at the apprentice with a smile. "Thanks!"
