Moonkit couldn't suppress a pang of remorse as Thunderkit sat lay on the nest of heather, miserable as usual. Sighing, she starts to pad over to him but is stopped by a voice.

"Moonkit, come play!" Ravenkit, her enthusiastic sister calls.

"Okay." Moonkit glances back at Thunderkit's sorrowful eyes, deeply concerned for him. She desperately wanted to console him but Ravenkit's impatient voice summons her.

"Come on!"

"Can't Thunderkit play?"

"No. He's a daft furball. You're wasting your time trying to." Ravenkit sniffs disdainfully, and Thunderkit deflates a little bit.

"Fine. But I get to be the warrior." Moonkit growls playfully.

Ravenkit rolls her dazzling green eyes. "Fine. There isn't a big chance of you catching me anyway. I'm the fastest Warrior in WindClan! I'm also the best hunter, fighter, oh, and I'm going to be leader one day."

Moonkit grins. "We'll see about that." She darted in Ravenkit's direction, her eyes fixed on Ravenkit's ebony fur.

Ravenkit yelps and scampers away. Moonkit slows her pace and decides to try her luck with Thunderkit. She strolls up to him.

"Would you like to help me catch Ravenkit?" She offers kindly.

Thunderkit groans. "Fine."

Moonkit blinks. The heavy storm cloud that seemed to hang over Thunderkit's head cleared. "Okay. Would you like to come in from behind?"

Thunderkit nods. The kits set off to find Ravenkit.

She was standing by the medicine den where Kestrelflight works, her eyes searching the camp. Moonkit always felt drawn to the medicine den. Moonkit stalked up to her and gave a full blown chase. Squealing, Ravenkit skids and nearly trips over a stick. Moonkit, amused, slows her pace, pretending she couldn't run more.

Thunderkit strided over, his golden eyes alight with laughter. The siblings pounced and Ravenkit yelped.

"That isn't fair!" Moonkit was trapped in a furious tussle.

"Alright kits, that's enough. Moonkit, Thunderkit, good job." An amber eyed tom had found them.

Moonkit grins. "Breezepelt!"

"Time for the nursery. Your mother is looking for you." Breezepelt briskly brushed off Moonkit's excitement.

As Moonkit padded to the nursery she couldn't help feeling disappointed. Breezepelt was always like this. Moonkit could remember how gentle and loving Breezepelt was at her and her sibling's birth. At three moons old Moonkit has grown used to this gesture but it hurt every time.

If this cat is our father at least he can acknowledge us!

"Did you have a good time?" Heathertail asks.

"Fine." Moonkit answers distractedly.

Heathertail narrows her eyes but says nothing.

Moonkit lays down on the heather nest, close to her mother's warmth.

Was Breezepelt always like that?

"Tell us a story!" Ravenkit demands Whitetail.

The white-furred elder chuckles. "Okay. Is it okay if is takes place in the forest?"

"Yes!" Moonkit and Ravenkit squeal in unison.

Whitetail begins. "Back in the old forest, after Tigerstar was killed at the paws of Scourge, we battled with BloodClan."

"How did Tigerstar die?" Thunderkit asks shyly.

Whitetail laughs, a deep throaty rasp. "So many questions! Well, Scourge's claws were made of sharpened dog teeth. So when Tigerstar told BloodClan to attack, Scourge refused, saying he alone controls his cats. So Tigerstar lunges at him and Scourge guts Tigerstar. It took all of his nine lives."

Thunderkit shudders.

Whitetail goes on. "Scourge gave us three sunrises to decide whether we would leave or they'll kill us. But the Clans united! We killed them! Or at least some of them. When Firestar- you didn't know him, killed Scourge, the remaining BloodClan cats fled."

"Wow." Moonkit stares up at Whitetail with awe. "That's amazing."

Whitetail nods. "It is."

Moonkit's littermates scamper out of the elder's den. She follows more slowly, and before she knew it her paws lead her to the medicine den.

"Hi! You're Moonkit, right?" A mottled brown tom walked up to Moonkit. He had white splotches that reminded her of kestrel feathers.

"Yes." Moonkit answered meekly.

"Would you like to help me sort herbs?" Kestrelflight asks carefully.

"Sure!" Moonkit answers cheerfully.

Kestrelflight leads her inside and strides to leaves laying out on the rocky soil. "I collected these this sunrise. That's goldenrod." He says, nosing a plant with little yellow flowers. "And that's horsetail. I'll introduce you to the other plants later, but let's sort these out first."

Moonkit hesitantly begins to sort, becoming more confident with each leaf. Kestrelflight smiles at her.

Kestrelflight suddenly growls, "Fox dung! Smokepaw stole the tansy I collected this sunrise!"

"How do you know it's Smokepaw?" Moonkit tips her head, defensive for her careless older brother, though she didn't know why.

Kestrelflight is silent.

"You can't go blaming a cat without proof!" Moonkit bursts out snarling.

Kestrelflight stiffens, disbelief in his eyes. For the first time she has interacted with Kestrelflight, he seemed a little fearful.

Three moons later

"From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Ravenpaw." Harestar announced. "Sedgewhisker, you will be Ravenpaw's mentor. You have shown bravery and quick thinking. I know you will do your best to pass these on to Ravenpaw."

Ravenpaw bounds to Sedgewhisker enthusiastically and practically crashed into her mentor. Moonpaw suppresses a mrroww of amusement, and Heathertail, standing only tail lengths away, was cheering possibly the loudest, pride blazing in her sapphire eyes.

"Ravenpaw! Thunderpaw!"

Kestrelflight clears his throat to draw Harestar's attention. "I would like Moonkit to join me in the medicine den."

Moonkit stiffens. Me?

Kestrelflight nods, as if he read her thoughts.

"Do you accept this position?" Harestar calmly inquires.

This is the moment.

"I do."

Moonkit has had quite a bit experience in the medicine den, since that day.

"Therefore you will be called Moonpaw until you receive your Medicine Cat name."

Pride blazing in Moonpaw's dark green eyes, she pads to Kestrelflight and touches noses with him.

"Moonpaw!"

"Welcome." Kestrelflight murmurs.

YES according to a family tree I scanned Brindlepaw and Smokepaw are Moonpaw, Thunderpaw and Ravenpaw's older siblings
