A/N: This is my first fanfic, so don't go too hard on me (: Tell me what you like, what you dislike, I'm all ears!
I stared out in the sunlight it's harsh rays in my eyes for the first time. I looked up and saw a tabby staring right into my eyes.
"Ironkit, can you see me?" she asked, excitement written all over her face.
"Mom," I mewed softly.
"Yes, welcome to Thunderclan," she meowed.
I quietly walked around the nursery just to feel my paws touch the ground for the first time. It felt so good. I saw my mother, Leaffoot talking to a big golden brown cat that I guessed was my father. I walked to my mother and asked who the cat was, even though I already had a guess.
" This is your father, Sorallfeather," was her reply.
"Hi Ironkit, nice to finally meet my son. Why don't you go see the other kits?" he suggested, looking at me with pride.
"Good idea."
I bounded off toward the nursery opening when two cats came in running really fast. One was chasing the other and gaining. Once close enough the she-cat pounced only to land a whisker away from the other cat.
"Stop it", Sorallfeather yowled.
The two cats stopped immediately. They walked slowly toward Sorallfeather with their heads down with embarrassment.
"You guys probably scared all the prey from here to highstones", he said as patient as possible.
"Sorry Sorallfeather" they mewed with their heads down.
The two cats walked slowly back toward the entrance. I walked toward the entrance so I could meet them and see what there names were.
"Hi, my name is Ironkit", I said softly to the two cats.
"Cool, my name is Leopardkit ,and this is my sister Mosskit. Are you Leaffoot's kit because you kinda look like her".
"Yes I am. Can you guys show me around the camp because I haven't seen the rest of it yet".
"Sure we would be glad to wouldn't we Mosskit", with excitement written all over his face.
"Yes, we would because we know all the places in camp. Just let us ask our mom".
She bounded off toward her mom to ask, her flame-colored pelt shining in the sunlight's rays. I saw her mom nod her head to her and look over at me. Mosskit came over with her mom trailing behind her.
"My mom said yes and she said that she wants to meet you," she said with a lot of excitement.
"Hi Ironkit, glad to see you with your eyes open. You look a lot like your mother," she meowed.
"Thank you. I'm going to be the best warrior Thunderclan has ever seen," I said confidently.
"I am too," Mosskit said.
"Well you guys do that and give Ironkit the tour before the sun goes down and maybe even get a story from the elders", Goldenflower said.
I ran to the entrance of the nursery and tripped over a twig on the way out. I found myself in the middle of a lot of cats staring at me. It was all quiet and then I heard somebody yowl my name. Then everybody starting cheering my name", IRONKIT, IRONKIT, IRONKIT, IRONKIT!
"Just ignore them," Mosskit meowed.
We just walked through the middle of the cats and the chanting died down.
Leopardkit and Mosskit were awesome at giving tours. They showed me everything, including the apprentices den, the warriors den, the medicine cat den, even the fresh-kill pile which was well stocked, and high rock. We even got to meet Firestar, the clan leader, and Graystripe, the deputy. We also saw most of the warriors and the apprentices.
The sun was starting to go down when the tour was finally finished. I thanked Mosskit and Leopardkit for the tour and asked if they would like to hear a story from the elders and they said yes. We walked to the elders den and plopped down beside one of the elders.
"Please tell us a story, please, please, please. We will even give you a piece of fresh-kill".
"Ok we will, but only if you get us a squirrel", the elders said all at once which was kinda creepy.
I walked to the fresh-kill pile and got the biggest squirrel the elders would see. I tried to drag it but that didn't work. I was about to give up when Firestar came up and said asked where I was taking the piece of fresh-kill too.
"The elders so they would tell us a story".
"Ok, would you like some help with that?" he asked.
"Yes please".
He picked up the squirrel with his mouth, carried it over to the elders den, and sat the squirrel down between Dappletail and One-Eye. Then padded back toward his den. I plopped down with Leopardkit and Mosskit.
One-Eye spoke first, " This story is going to be about the Tribe cats up in the mountains".
Clan life was already getting better.
