Chapter 1:

"Dovewing, can I go outside now?"

"Not yet Willowkit, it's too early."

"Aww, Come on! Please! It's almost sun-high!"

"No."

"Fine, but when is Tigerkit going to open his eyes?"

"Soon, dear. You know that his first moon has been rough," the queen's voice choked with sadness mingled with relief. "He almost died."

Tigerkit squirmed beside his mother, Dovewing. Their conversation had woke him up! I'll open my eyes soon, he thought, determinedly.

He had a rough kitting, he was born small and weak, and Jayfeather thought that he wouldn't survive till the next day. However, he did, but to make matters worse, he got very ill, probably because his weakness made him liable to illness.

He was fighting for his life for half-a-moon, maybe more, and healing took a long time. Because of his natural small size and the fact that he was gravely ill, delayed him from opening his eyes for a moon now, unlike his sister, who had opened her eyes early, a quarter moon after she was born.

He felt a twinge of sadness, thinking of how much he missed.

That made him even more determined, and with all his might, he fluttered his eyelids.

Blink. It worked! His eyes were wide open, and he gasped loudly at the sudden barrage of images and colours. His eyes were rather blurry, but still, it was all too much for him.

"Dovewing! Tigerkit opened his eyes!" The voice of his sister rang in his ears, and he turned to see what she looked like. Judging only by scent and sound, he turned to stare at the kit who was sitting about a fox-length away from him, sitting right in front of their mother.

Willowkit had short but thick and fluffy light gray tabby fur, and wide, dark blue eyes. Her muzzle was narrow and her face was angular and defined. She had large, round ears which pointed at the tip. In general, her ears were regular sized for a cat, slightly larger, but nicely angled.

Then, he turned his gaze to Dovewing. Dovewing looked very similar to Willowkit, apart from the stripes and eye colour, and her ears were smaller than Willowkit's, in proportion. Dovewing was solid pale gray, with pale gold eyes. Dovewing also had slightly long fur, compared to Willowkit's short, sleek, thick fur, but other than that, their builds and face shape were almost identical.

He found himself staring, so he blinked several times. "Hi," he chirped.

Willowkit bounded up to him, and bowled him over easily. "Tigerkit! You opened your eyes! I'm going to introduce you to the others!" squeaked the excited she-kit.

"Willowkit! Be careful with Tigerkit! He's still weakened from the illness, and look at how roughly you pushed him!" snapped Dovewing, who nuzzled Tigerkit to his paws.

Tigerkit shuffled his paws, self-conscious of how Dovewing referred to him as 'weakened.' He felt sadness rush over him as he thought of how easily he was pushed over, wondering how he would fit in with others. Paying close attention, he now realized that Willowkit was taller than him, even though she was a she-cat, and she should be a tiny bit shorter than him. She was only slightly taller, but was noticeable was the fact that her fur was sleeker and she looked more plump and muscled than him. Tigerkit was a bag of bones. One moon old kits should be nicely plump.

"Sorry, Dovewing. Sorry, Tigerkit," mewed Willowkit, her eyes flashing guiltily towards him.

He didn't like the look of pity Willowkit gave him, but he knew she was genuinely worried for him. After all, he was her smaller sibling.

He padded up to Willowkit on shaky legs, and nudged her softly. "It's okay, Willowkit. Now we can go outside together!"

At that, Willowkit brightened up a bit, which made Tigerkit feel happy too.

He turned towards Dovewing, who was staring at her two kits fondly. "Can we do outside?" he asked, his tail lashing with anticipation.

Dovewing looked worried for a moment, but then licked Tigerkit's cheek. "Yes, dear," she purred, "However, be careful, and don't bother any of the older cats! Be nice to the other kits, and let Willowkit show you around, she'll protect you for now. Don't be out long, it's your first day! Daisy might be outside, of so, she'll watch over you!"

Tigerkit purred and nuzzled Dovewing's paw. "Okay, I'll come back soon," he mewed, before purring at Willowkit, "I'm ready!"

Willowkit nodded, and she padded out of the nursery, and Tigerkit followed closely behind.

He marvelled at the size of the camp, and looked at the ground at the sky. Suddenly, he felt so much smaller than before.

Willowkit glanced at him, her eyes full of amusement. "I know, right? Even now, it's still so big! I wonder what the forest must be like!"

Tigerkit's heart sped up at the mention of the forest. I can't wait to become an apprentice, he mused.

Willowkit steered, and turned to a spot almost behind the nursery, with a small tree and a small grassy clearing, where some large, smooth stones were scattered. It looked like a nice play, as the stones were flat and weren't dangerous.

Suddenly he realized what Willowkit was so intently staring at. Three kits were scuffling in the grassy space. They must be Squirrelflight's kits! he thought, excited to meet his denmates but also slightly disappointed that he wasn't going to see the whole camp.

Willowkit hurried towards the three kits, who had stopped play-fighting and were staring curiously at Willowkit and the newcomer; Tigerkit.

Tigerkit tried to run after her, struggling to keep up. When he almost reached the grassy area, he tripped and stumbled face-flat.

"Tigerkit! Are you okay?! I'm sorry I rushed!" squeaked the voice of Willowkit, who helped Tigerkit get back on his paws.

"I'm fine," he mewed quietly.

He lifted his gaze from his paws to look at the three older kits. His heart dropped to his paws as he saw their faces, barely able to contain their laughter at ludicrous, clumsy, little Tigerkit.

One of them, a black she-kit, burst out laughing. Tigerkit stared at her, trying not to cry. He lowered his head and tail, staring sadly at his paws.

"Don't be so rude! You know Tigerkit had a rough moon!" snapped the voice of one of the kits, a tom. Tigerkit felt a bit better as he saw a glimpse of amusement and sympathy in the tom's eyes as he looked at Tigerkit.

"I'm Barkkit," mewed the tom, who was a long-legged, lanky dark brown tabby with black paws and light amber eyes. "That furball over there," he gestured the she-kit who had been laughing, a jet-black she-cat with sky-blue eyes and a single white paw, "...Is Skykit." Skykit glared at Tigerkit so fiercely, that he thought she would burn holes into his skin.

Then, Barkkit pointed to another she-kit, a beautiful flame-coloured she-cat with green eyes. "That's Firekit."

He stared at Firekit, awed by her beauty, and now that he thought of it, Skykit was really pretty too. Firekit glared at him, then made a sound that seemed like a scoff, before padding towards Willowkit. "What do you want to play..." Tigerkit didn't hear the rest of their conversation.

Skykit stalked up to him, the three moon old kit towering over him. Being small and skinny didn't help. "I'll make sure that you stay in your place runt," she hissed in his ear. "You're so weak, I could push you over with my tail!" she growled, before slapping him with her tail. Tigerkit didn't fall, but stumbled a bit.

He took a step back, while Skykit simply laughed and walked away.

He sighed, and padded back to the nursery, his tail dragging in the sand. He watched as his sister played with the three other kits. I'm not going to fit in for a while, he thought glumly.

He stopped by a small puddle, and looked down at his reflection, realizing that he never saw how he looked. He was short for one, and very skinny. His ribs showed through his skin, and his cheek bones were bony, not in the way that Willowkit's were nicely defined, but in a nasty way. He had fluffy dark brown tabby fur, and amber eyes. I wonder who I got that from, he thought, not knowing any kin with dark brown fur.

Shrugging, he padded into the nursery. Dovewing was snoring softly, and he curled up beside her in her nest.

Even so, his sleep was troubled. He kept thinking if he would ever be an apprentice, and Skykit.

Will the others ever accept me?

It should get more interesting once the story gets rolling, for now it's pretty much introductions and fillers.
