Cinderlily's Story

Summary

When a young IceClan kit gets found by a LightningClan patrol, the Clan takes her in and raises her like one of their own. But LightningClan would soon learn what destiny StarClan had in store for the young IceClan kit. This is Cinderlily's Story.

A/N

This is what happened the night before Brightkit gets found by our little friend Saria. And just to clarify, the names of Saria and her family are just the same names from The Legend of Zelda.

Watching The Stars

I sighed quietly and turned to look at the still quietly sleeping Willowkit. I couldn't sleep, so I quietly ran out through the cave, heading to the edge of our territory.

"What do I do now?" I quietly muttered to myself as I stared up at the stary night sky.

"Wow! The stars are visible tonight." I turned in surprise to see Willowkit, Cinderkit and Brightkit.

"What are you doing out here so late Wildkit?" Willowkit asks, coming up and sitting beside me. I sighed and shrugged in response. Willowkit sighed and shook her head in amusement.

"Don't know, I couldn't sleep." I replied, turning to look at Willowkit. Both Cinderkit and Brightkit looked to each other with amused smiles on there faces.

"Hay, I have an idea! Let's see who can count the most stars." Cinderkit exclaims with a wide grin on her face. The rest of us thought it over for a while before we nodded in agreement.

"StarClan, this is so hard trying to count stars." Brightkit exclaimed after we had tried and failed to keep track of how many stars that each of us had counted.

"I know right?" I say, sighing and glaring up at the sky, as if glaring at the sky would do anything.

"I wonder how many stars there are in the sky." Willowkit says, breaking the silence that had fallen. I smiled in amusement and looked back at Willowkit.

"I think we should be heading back to camp now, I would't want mom yelling at us again." Cinderkit said, and we all nodded in agreement as we all started to run back to camp before anyone awoke.

It was almost dawn by the time we finally headed back to camp, everyone was still sleeping, so we were able to quietly sneak back in without anyone noticing.

"We actually managed to sneak back into camp without anyone noticing." Cinderkit whisper-shouts, carful to keep her voice low so she wouldn't wake a still quietly sleeping Iceleep.

"I still can't believe that we were able to see the stars, usually the sky is always overcast with clouds." Willowkit remarks with a bright smile and we all nod in agreement.

"We should get at least a bit of sleep before the sun fully starts to rise in the sky." Brightkit says, and we all turned our gaze to the sky witch was a breathtaking pink.

"C'mon guys, I'm serious, we wouldn't want mom yelling at us if we fall asleep at breakfast would we?" Brightkit spoke up with a bit of irritation in her tone. We all sighed but nodded at her logic, we need to at least get a few hours of sleep.

CINDERKIT

I awake to Brightkit licking the tuft of fur on my head. Sunlight was streaming in through the entrance of the cave. I sat up and stretched and we both ran out into the sunlight.

"C'mon, breakfast is ready sleepyhead." Brightkit teased as I batted her away with a paw. I nodded, stretched and followed Brightkit to where the others were waiting.

"Did you all stay up late last night? You all look exhausted." Cloudpelt says, as Willowkit looked up at him with a sheepish grin on her face.

"Yeah, we did, we stayed up late watching the stars." She replies, looking up at Cloudpelt with wide eyes. Cloudpelt laughs quietly and shook his head in amusement.

"You mean you went stargazing." Brightkit corrected with a smirk, as Wildkit turned her head away with an annoyed hiss.

"Brightkit. Wildkit. Stop bickering and eat your breakfast." Iceleep scolds them and both Brightkit and Wildkit smile sheepishly as they began eating their food.

WILLOWKIT

We were stuck cleaning the dirt place again for sneaking out at night to stargaze. I sighed and looked at Wildkit.

Wildkit stares at me with a heavily annoyed look on her face. "What?" I ask, staring at her with confused eyes. She just coughs and continues staring at me.

"It's not my fault we're cleaning the dirt place!" I exclaimed with an exasperated sigh.

Wildkit coughs. "Uh… Did you forget? YES IT IS DOOFUS!" I turn away from Wildkit, and kick some dirt on her. I snicker under my breath, but I know she hears it. Wildkit jumps in the dirt, and some gets in my mouth.

"AGGHH. NOT COOL." I yelled. Now it's Wildkit's turn to snicker. I frown, and tackle her, bathing us both in dirt. Of course THAT's when Iceleep decides to show up. Couldn't have been five minutes earlier when we weren't both completely covered in dirt?

"WILDKIT. WILLOWKIT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!" I groan, and wonder what punishment will be added on to our already disgusting punishment.

"Well, Mom, what did you want us to do? The dirt just composts anyway! The only thing it's useful for is to get us covered in dirt!" I say, as Willowkit starts laughing.

"Stop playing in the dirt! Cinderkit and Brightkit are already finished cleaning up the medicine den, so I suggest you two hurry up if you want to go out and play with them." Iceleep says, sweeping her gaze over both of us, we were covered in dirt and Cinderkit and Brightkit's mom did not look happy. I kick dirt on her face and run out through the dirt place, heading to the edge of our territory.

I sigh when I get there. I'm six moons today, The dirt isn't even the worst punishment. The WORST punishment is my apprentice ceremony getting pushed back two moons. STUPID, BRATTY little Ivykit is gonna be an apprentice before me.
