Cloudtail's views on events in Thunderclan
Note: I do not own Cloudtail or any characters. I also decided to add about Goldenflower's kitting into the story, Goldenflower kitted just before Cloudtail became an apprentice.
Kithood.
I can remember the first time I came to Thunderclan. It was Leaf-bare and I was a kit then, but when Firestar (then called Fireheart) took me to the clan Bluestar stared at him and I. Everyone hated me, until Greystripe told the clans that I am meant to become a great warrior, like my uncle. I went to live with Brindleface and her kits, Fernkit and Ashkit. Fernkit, Ashkit and I always got into trouble, even when I went hunting for the clan. I went for a walk one day with Fireheart and Cinderpaw, then Yellowfang's apprentice, when I found some berries. I was about to open my mouth wide when Cinderpaw told me off. As I promised not to touch them I went to see what else I can find. I saw a strange plant and I can hear Cinderpaw jokingly say "Maybe it's deadly nightshade this time". After my nap in the nursery I told Fernkit, Ashkit, Thornkit and Brightkit about Deathberries, and how we must never eat them.
Then one day I found out Brokentail, the former leader of Shadowclan, was in the camp so I ran up to him and began attacking him. Darkstripe, the cat who was on guard duty at the time, didn't notice, until Brokentail lifted a paw and was about to swipe me when Darkstripe growled "Touch that kit, traitor, and you'll have your ears shredded" I shuddered at that, and as Darkstripe turned back he muttered "Kittypet"
I didn't knew it then, but Darkstripe knew where I came from. I turned to Fireheart, and he said "Did you hear that? Kittypet" I looked at him, and muttered "So? What's a kittypet?" Fireheart explained that a kittypet is a cat who was born and lived in twoleg houses, and he told me him and I were born in twoleg houses. I stared at him, and I burst out "Born in a twoleg nest? I was born here!"
Then, one day, Goldenflower began kitting. As quickly as it began, it ended, and there was a dark brown tabby kit and a ginger tortoiseshell. "Everyone, this is Bramblekit and Tawnykit" I walked up to the bigger kit and meowed "Hi I'm Cloudkit and I'm one of Brindleface's kits." Bramblekit squeaked "Hello Cloudkit my name's Bramblekit. We might become friends when we are older." Brambleclaw and I were, and still are, mates. He was a different cat to Tigerstar, although once he and I fell out over Daisy, he eventually made up, and since I knew him, he dreams of becoming a leader, and when he and I were kits, he was playing a game with the other kits and he pretended to be clan leader, called Bramblestar, and I was his loyal deputy. But that's a story for another time, but within a few days I ran up to Fireheart with exciting news. Even today, I can still remember running up to my uncle, and squeaking "I'm going to be an apprentice today" But my apprenticeship is another story, one I'll tell you later. If you are crying into the Kleenex tissues it'll get humourous as I tell a very funny story from my apprenticeship. Thank you Sleepstar.
