I am Bubblekit

I am Bubblekit

I was there when the monsters came roaring down the path

I did not know how much danger it would get me into

Its shiny blue pelt had a sparkle to it,

And its eyes seemed to glow in vengeance

As I lay half- dead on the path

I was carried back to camp by my mother

And my clan leader

They were both so disappointed

Mother's eyes never seemed so flamed,

Her tail lashing back and forth

She paced outside of the medicine den,

I could hear the sound of her paws,

Hard against the camp's rocky turf

I lay in a bed of clean moss,

Medicine cat's paws working furiously through the scratches in my white pelt

The smell of herbs filling my nose

And that was the last thing I smelt

The sweet scents drifting over me

Sounds of desperation filling my ears

I tried not to listen

Mother came in,

I could just barely see her fur

Fluffed up in annoyance

And bristling with anger

She was mad

And so was everyone else

But I didn't care

All I wanted was that mouse on the other side of the path

To prove I could be an apprentice

Sooner than I was supposed to be

But that will never happen

Because someone is calling me

A yellow kit

They have a starry pelt, and seem carefree

There are a whole bunch of them

Of all different ages

And they want me to join them

I say yes, and follow the yellow kit into the light
