Chapter 1

~A Few Days Ago~

"What are you going to name them Cinderheart?" Lionblaze asked the new mother.

"I don't know. What should we name them? You can help. You are their father after all" Cinderheart looked at Jayfeather, "thank you Jayfeather"

The grumpy medicine cat nodded, leaving his brother and Cinderheart alone with their kits. (Well not completley alone. Sorreltail, Ferncloud Daisy and Poppyfrost were there too)

"The biggest should be Bramblekit. She looks so much like Bramblestar. Maybe the orange tom, Firekit. Then the silver tom, maybe Adderkit." Cinderheart meowed.

"I want to name the last two. The black one will be Hollykit. After Hollyleaf, may she be as brave as her aunt. Then the black and silver one can be Stormkit, after Stormfur." Lionblaze purred.

"I think those will be perfect. My only concern is that Hollykit and Stormkit won't survive the fast approching leaf-bare." Cinderheart said.

~The Present~

.:Stormkit's P.O.V:.

"Firekit! Help! Bramblekit and Adderkit won't get their fat butts off us!" Stormkit wailed as she and Hollykit were wedged between the butts of their sister and brother. "Cinderheart!" the small kit wailed.

"Yes?" Cinderheart poked her head out of the nursery. She gasped seeing her smallest kits being crushed by the bigger kits. Stormkit continued to wail, Hollykit joining in as the weight of their kin began to hurt. "Adderkit! Bramblekit! Get off your sisters!" Cinderheart snapped.

Stormkit took in a huge gasp of air as the weight was lifted of her spine. She and Hollykit sat up and retreated to their mother. Stormkit opened her eyes as she approched Cinderheart. Once again earnign a gasp from her mama. Stormkit was picked up by the scruff and rushed into the medicine den.

"Jayfeather! Something is wrong with Stormkit!" Cinderheart wailed out loud.

The medicine cat come over, inspecting Stormkit. "She's half blind" Jayfeather said looking into the kits green and blue eyes. "The blue one on the left. The green eye is completly fine."

"No! She can't be blind!" Cinderheart yowled.

"Half blind" Jayfeather corrected.

Lionblaze burst into the medicine den. "What's wrong?!"

"Stormkit is blind!" Cinderheart wailed.

Stormkit looked to her parents then the medicine cat.

"Half blind" Jayfeather corrected again.

"What's so bad about that?"
