Worthless (Warriors AU)

by Warriorcatsfandom

A long time ago, an evil cat took over the clans. Now, ranks are decided based upon eye color, and there's been a new rule added to the warrior code so that only green eyed cats can have important ranks. But one day, a young she-cat rises to change the code... Will she be filled with the hatred of her clan, or will she remain pure?

2. Prologue

Blazefeather nuzzled her beautiful kits. Two of them opened their eyes, and to her delight, they were green! She just knew Redkit would have gorgeous emerald orbs as well. Little did the queen know, she couldn't be more wrong.

A few days later Redkit's eyes opened, and Blazefeather let out a horrified screech. Her kit's eyes were blue. Her worst nightmare had come true, she had birthed an abomination! Redkit looked up at Blazefeather and rubbed against her. The latter snarled and kicked Redkit away.

Redkit looked up at her mother in confusion. Her blue eyes glittered in the sun and the kit bounded out of the nursery. "Graykit, Flamekit, look! I can play with you now!" she mewed, eyes shining in excitement.

Graykit looked at Redkit as if she were disgusting fox-dung. The dark ginger she-kit halted, confused. "You have blue eyes! Mama says I can't interact with blue eyed fox-dung!"

Redkit was confused. Her eyes were green! Her mother said so! She looked down into a puddle, and nearly fell over in surprise. Staring back at her was a beautiful dark ginger tabby with blue eyes that shimmered like sapphires.

Redkit looked back up, but her littermates were gone. Wherever she went, warriors turned away from her and gave her mean glares. The young kit couldn't understand, so she went back to the nursery. Her mother, once a warm, nurturing presence, was now cold and unreachable, and wouldn't even look at Redkit.

"WHY WON'T YOU LOOK AT ME!?" the red she-kit cried in an outburst of anger.
