Sorry for the supper sort chapter! I wanted to post something next one will be longer I promise!
Ravenkit sat staring across camp with a blank gaze. His mother and father sat beside the warrior there gaze downcast. It had been two moons since his brother's death. Ravenkit and the other kits punishments had ended except for their ceremony being held late. Though for Ravenkit it was like it had barely even started. Everytime his mother looked at him her eyes were filled with disappointment. His father was more sympathetic but everytime he spoke with Ravenkit his eyes filled with tears.
Sandkit was no help, she was as snarky as ever Ravenkit had come used to it so he mostly just ignored her. Crowkit had moved on the quickest and was at the moment playing moss ball with Flamekit. Ashkit has been named an apprentice and now trained under Lionflame. Ravenkit was happy for his friend though nothing could help him with his grief.
Crowkit and Flamekit scampered over "Sandkit's going to play moss ball with us want to join?"
"Maybe later," Ravenkit muttered.
Crowkit nudged him "come on Ravenkit! Dustkit died two moons ago. You have mourned for two moons if any of us shouldn't be mourning it's you. It wasn't your fault."
"But it was! It was all our fault!" Ravenkit meowed.
"Dustkit wouldn't have wanted us to mourn Ravenkit!" Flamekit meowed.
"I don't know what he would want because thanks to us he's not here!" Ravenkit snarled.
The two kits took a step back "calm down Ravenkit!" his brother meowed.
Ravenkit sprang to his paws "how can you call yourself Dustkit's brother! Right now he seems to mean nothing to you!" he spat.
"You know he's not!" Crowkit shot back.
"I wouldn't know that because you mourned for like two days and then started playing!" Ravenkit snarled.
Crowkit narrowed his eyes "mother said that cats mourn in different ways!"
Ravenkit didn't know where his anger was coming from but he sprang at his brother. Crowkit looked surprised wiggling under his brother.
"Yeah different not at all!" Ravenkit snarled.
Crowkit growled "get off me you grief driving maniac!"
Ravenkit felt a want to slash his claws down his brother's face but he jumped off his brother. He turned sharply away from the two other kits.
"Leave me alone!" he ordered
Crowkit didn't need to be told twice he stomped off Flamekit however stayed looking at his friend.
"Ravenkit I'm so sorry, this is all my fault," Flamekit meowed looking at his paws.
"Flamekit leave me alone!" Ravenkit snarled.
Flamekit took a step forward and sat down placing his tail on his friend's shoulder. Ravenkit felt his tears stroll down his cheek something he had down a lot over the last couple of moons. He slumped to the ground putting his head in his paws.
Flamekit eyed his friend his heart lurching for him before frowning "come on Ravenkit let's play something together."
Ravenkit looked up at Flamekit "I'm sorry I've been a jerk."
"That's alright you just grieve in a different way," meowed Flamekit.
Ravenkit got to his paws and padded off to play moss ball with his friends a small smile creeping onto his face.
Hope you enjoyed next chapter is when they become apprentices that chapter will be much longer!
