Chapter 1: eyes
My life was a series of chaotic events but it all started the day I opened my eyes
(:*¥*:)
Silverkit awoke with a start, jumping up out of her nest she shared with her mother and siblings. She let her eyes drift curiously at her surroundings. It was much larger than she had originally thought. The cavernous room held together by tightly woven brambles and leaves, though Silverkit could still see flecks of light peeking through. Her eyes settle in on her mother, a beautiful gray tabby. She was still asleep along with the rest of the crowded nursery. Silverkit took a shaky step forward and ended up crashing into her mother in a whirl if paws and fur. Her mother stirred, startled by the sudden commotion and blinked open her eyes. She looked confused but when she looked at Silverkit the confusion vanished, replaced by an expression of amusement and curiosity "Silverkit you've opened your eyes turn around and let me get a good look at you." She me meowed quietly.
Silverkit turned quickly, wanting to get a better look at her mother. When she looked at her mother In the eye she gasped.
"Is something wrong" Silverkit asked worriedly. Was there something wrong? she fretted internally.
" no, it's just your eyes I've never seen anything like it!" Mistflower, my mother, exclaimed
"Okay. Can I go explore?" Silverkit asked.
"Sure" Mistflower said hesitantly.
Silverkit turned to leave but before She could her mother added"but don't get upset if people get a little startled by your appearance, it's not everyday they see a kit as beautiful as you."
Silverkit nodded running out of the nursery. Her eyes scanned the clearing which was full of cats trying to find out their duties for the day. In the corner of her eye, she saw a small puddle, curious on why her mother had reacted they way she did, Silverkit trotted over to it and hesitantly looked in. she was startled at what she saw; instead of the usual blue, green, amber, yellow, or gray, her eyes were blue green. A beautiful blend of blue and green, and if you looked closely, you could see flecks of silver. Not only that, she looked like a tiny version of a full grown cat. Her fur was shiny and sleek, instead of fluffy and soft and her posture was mature. Silverkit stepped away from the puddle, her mind was a jumble of thoughts but she shook them away and walked into the first den she saw. Who sleeps here? She wondered.
"Hey"Silverkit heard someone say from behind her.
"Yes" She said turning around slowly remembering what she saw in the puddle.
"This is the apprentices den. Your not supposed to be in here." The voice said calmly.
"Oh, sorry this is my first time out of the nursery I didn't know"
By now she was facing him and a shocked look came across his face.
"Oh my starclan" he said quietly "your eyes"
" I know, they're different, but anyways I'm Silverkit daughter of Mistflower and Mudpelt." She said a little pride entering her voice.
"I'm Forestpaw, your fathers apprentice, i came to visit you a half moon ago when you were born. Would you like me to give you the tour?" He asked.
" sure" Silverkit replied cheerfully.
He lead her out of the den to a small group of cats in the corner of the clearing.
"Hi" Silverkit said scampering over to them.
They turned towards her,the same look of shock that was on Forestpaw's face entered their expressions.
By that time Forestpaw caught up and when he saw his friends faces he glared at them and said " hey guys this is Silverkit, it's her first time out of the nursery"
They all looked at Silverkit and introduced themselves, "I'm Robinpaw" a reddish brown she cat said.
"I'm Windpaw" a gray Tom said.
"And I'm Breezepaw" a pale gray tabby she cat said.
Silverkit studied them carefully, Forestpaw seemed nice, Robinpaw seemed sweet but you could tell she would make a fierce opponent in battle from the spark in her eyes Windpaw looked like he was the more serious one of the group and Breezepaw looked like a trustworthy cat who could be a great friend "Nice to meet you all" Silverkit said cheerfully,
"We'll help with the tour" Breezepaw volunteered.
I nodded.
"Over there is the warriors den, there is the elders den, there's the leaders den above the highledge, and there is the medicine den." She said pointing to each one with her tail.
Silverkit looked up at the sky and noticed the sun going down. She glanced at the apprentices, "Why didn't you go out with your mentors?" She asked curiously.
" We had an assessment at dawn so we were given the rest of the day off. We are becoming warriors in a half moon!" Breezepaw replied quickly.
"Oh, okay. Thanks for the tour, I'm going back to the nursery" Silverkit said. She was tired from her long day. She scampered towards the nursery but before she made it inside she crashed into a bundle of reddish brown fur. Silverkit stood up quickly, shaking out her fur. "Oops. I'm so sorry! I didn't see you there!" She meowed, slightly embarrassed.
"It's okay. I'm Redkit." The Tom said kindly.
"I'm Silverkit. I would love to stay and talk but I'm exhausted" Silverkit meowed tiredly.
"Go ahead and go to sleep. I'll talk to you tomorrow?" Redkit meowed sounding almost nervous.
"Talk to you tomorrow" Silverkit confirmed and headed into the nursery. She looked towards the nest she shared with her family and saw that her sister and brothers were awake.
"Hi guys" Silverkit said yawning
"You went exploring without I us" Mousekit, my sister, pouted
"We'll mother let me" Silverkit retorted and curled up beside Mistheart. She fell asleep almost instantly. She woke up in a beautiful meadow filled with small blue green flowers and butterflys. Silverkit wandered around aimlessly, watching the birds sing. Suddely a cat appeared from behind a tree, Silverkit's fur fluffed up.
"Who are you?" She asked, scared.
The cat stepped forward and could see that it was a pale gray she cat with blue eyes
"I" the cat said "am Dovewing"
