Hi guys sorry for the wait! Here is chapter 2...

CHAPTER 2

(Sunkit's POV)

Sunkit felt her eyes drift close, she dreamed she was in the tree again and she slipped, but this time she didn't hit the ground, instead a large bright ginger tom ran underneath her and caught her just in the nick of time. He gently slid her off his back and turned to her, green eyes kind and friendly, "I will always be here for you Sunkit," he told her, and with that he faded away leaving a speechless Sunkit standing there staring at where he had been.

"Sunkit, Sunkit dear wake up," the sand-colored tabby she-kit awoke to see her mother standing over her, "I brought you a mouse honey."

"Thanks mom," she meowed scarfing it down, she hadn't realized how hungry she had been. Slowly she maneuvered herself so she was in an upright position and looked around, nothing had changed, it was the same boring old medicine den that she had been in since yesterday. How does Brightpelt stand this place? She thought to herself as she examined the brambly walls, then again most of the other dens in the clan were like this, but the nursery felt more comforting then all of them….

Brightpelt's mew jolted her from her thoughts, "Hi, Sunkit glad to see you awake!"

"Hi," Sunkit replied, why was she so happy?

"Sunkit," she meowed turning to face the she-kit, "Today I'm going to try and help you walk!"

"Oh, but she just fell yesterday give her a little more to rest!" her Lightpetal begged.

"I'm fine mom," Sunkit groaned.

"Oh….ok," her mother replied flatly, "I'll just be outside the den if you need me…" Sunkit watched as she left then turned to Brightpelt expently.

"Now, let me help you up and we can try walking with me supporting you first, then you can try on your own." Sunkit nodded and allowed herself to be helped up by the medicine cat. She leaned against her and lifted her hurt leg off the ground, they began to walk. They did a few circles around the den until Sunkit felt comfortable, then Brightpelt had her balance, she fell a few times but eventually got the hang of it. Last came the true test, Sunkit began to walk or limp, she made it only about two fox lengths before falling flat on her face. Brightpelt helped her up, "Are you ok? Do you want to try again?"

"I'm fine," Sunkit grumbled, "And i'd rather just sleep." Brightpelt sighed and helped the kit back her nest. Sunkit curled up and watched as the medicine cat left the den, she thought about what Brightpelt had said, "I'm afraid if it doesn't heal in the next three moons Sunkit will not be able to train as a warrior…"

Just then she heard a voice, "Bluekit," it was so soft she could hardly hear it, "Bluekit," it spoke again.

"Ha-hello? Who's there? I'm n-not Bluekit, b-but I am Sunkit," she stammered gazing around at the den.

"Blu-" it started to speak again but stopped as soon as pawsteps could be heard outside the den.

"Sunkit!" came a cheery meow, the kit looked up to see Beetlestripe standing over her.

"Hi!" she squeaked.

"Your father says hi, he would come and visit you but he's very busy."

Sunkit's eyes darkened, "Oh..yeah…" she muttered, her father, Sunstep was the deputy so he didn't have much time for his only kit. She sighed, "Beetlestripe, when I become an apprentice will be my mentor?"

"Well..I don't have much say in that Sunkit, that's for Ripplestar to decide," he looked down at the sandy kit's pleading eyes, "But...maybe I could talk to Ripplestar about it…"

"Would you?!" Sunkit exclaimed eye wide.

"I promise!"

Sunkit watched the rain as it fell in tiny drops from the sky, she looked at her leg and sighed, why did I have to fall? Why did I have to get hurt, this is no fun, it was her fifth day in the nursery and things had not been very eventful. She still couldn't walk and none of the other's kits would come see her. On top of that she kept hearing that voice, "Bluekit," it would say until a cat walked into the den, she promised herself that as soon as she could walk she would try to figure what the voice was and what it wanted.

Just then she heard her mother's voice outside the den, "Oh please Ripplestar give it a few more days, maybe even a moon?"

"Lightpetal I understand your concern but Sunkit's apprentice ceremony is supposed to be in five days! But I guess since she's hurt I can extend it to a moon, but no later! Do you understand?"

"Yes Ripplestar," her mother sighed. Sunkit felt her heart sink, in five days she could have become an apprentice, but not now, she'd just have to try harder! And in a moon she could be a real apprentice!

Poor Sunkit! Anyways...what do you guys think of Beetlestripe? And remember to review!
