Kithood is until the end of A Dangerous Path. The first book this is in is Forest of Secrets. This has the characters, except it is practically AU, but the battle of BloodClan vs. LionClan IS in here.
I feel myself leaving my imprisonment. I am but a tiny kit. My brother is my landing pad, but I am quickly moved. "What are you going to name him, Windsplash?" A gruff voice sounds, probably my father.
"Twilightkit." My mother, Windsplash says. I am unable to see, or move, but I can hear everything that is said. I wail in unison with my brother. I am quickly but gently moved. I feel something enter my mouth. I suck, feeling a warm liquid enter my teeth & touch my tongue. I eventually let go, content.
"Twilightkit looks frail, but his brother, Bearkit is doing quite well." A new, unknown voice enters my fragile ears. I mew heartily, though I do not yet know what these words mean, they must be telling on how I look. "But that doesn't mean he isn't." I hear it with a tone not yet heard; it felt good in my ears, like it was good. I squirmed on my brother, who again squeaked as I was moved. This life was going to be good. I again got to the unknown place, & the liquid entered my mouth.
Two moons later…
"Bearkit!" I squeaked, unhappy that he stole my meal. Again. I then just tackled him, fighting for my meal back. It eventually exited his paws & I devoured it as he jumped me again. Our good friend, Orangekit joined in as we passed her. We were rolling so much we didn't see the Medicine Cat Den. We rolled & knocked a lot of Milkweed down & squishing it.
"DANG IT! I JUST COLLECTED THAT MILKWEED!" Yellowfang yelled as she saw me, Bearkit, & Orangekit rolling. The three just stopped dead in their tracks. They just walked towards the Medicine Cat. "Sorry…" The three spoke in unison. Yellowfang just sighed.
"I believe these three belong to you two." Yellowfang said, giving me & Bearkit to our mother, Windsplash, & Orangekit to her mother, Sunlight. We stood at the kit entrance, as Fireheart passed the kit den. He waved to us hello. We smiled, & Orangekit fainted. You see, Orangekit is like Fireheart's fangirl. We looked at each other with looks, showing we were NOT amused.
"Orangekit, wake up." I spoke, nudging her. Bearkit spat water in her face, like he always did when she fainted from Fireheart. She woke up immediately.
"BEARKIT! NOT AGAIN!" Orangekit spat. "You pile of mouse dung!" I facepawed. (Yes, facepawed. The equivalent of Facepalmed. It will be done a LOT.) They got into a big fight, as they always did. But I pushed them away from each other.
"You mouse-brained idiots! If you love each other, just admit it!" I yelled at the two. Both of them got a red streak over their nose. They just walked away. This was normal. I walked to my mother.
"Mom, this is getting boring. Just doing the same thing over & over again. The apprentices get all the fun. I only have two kit friends, & one is my brother." I told her.
"Why not ask an elder for a story?" She told me. I squealed in happiness. A mouse scurried into camp. I quickly caught it, & walked proudly to the Elder Den. I saw One-eye & Halftail.
"One-eye! Halftail! I got a mouse for you! I caught it myself." I proudly exclaimed. "May I have a story?" They nodded, while I smiled in giddy.
"Well…" One-eye started, then went on & on about a famous battle for Sunningrocks where Bluestar lost her mother. Bearkit & Orangekit got into the Den eventually, & the story went on. When she was finished, One-eye let out a long sigh. We were disgusted & amazed at the same time.
"There. One story for one good, juicy fresh-kill. Thank you, Twilightkit. Only StarClan knows how you were able to sit still, all of you. You're mature past your age. All of you." One-eye said, as we left.
And there is Chapter One. Hope you liked it! RR&R. Read, Re-read, & Review! A new chapter out soon!
