A/N: The takes place a few generations after Firestar.
Chapter one:
Sunkit rolled onto her back and gazed up at the ceiling of the nursery. "Mom, when am I going to be made a warrior?" she asked Startail.
Startail laughed. "Not for a few moons, Sunkit! You still need to be an apprentice, remember?" The she-cat started cleaning her long, black pelt with white splotches.
"Yeah. I wish I was five moons, not three. I wanna be right there, fighting side-by-side with Shinestar!" Sunkit exclaimed.
"I don't see why." Sunkit looked behind her to see her sister, Moonkit. "There's nothing special about killing and watching your friends get killed." Moonkit padded off to see some of the other kits, probably.
Startail looked at Sunkit, her beautiful flame-colored pelt shining in the pale sunlight that shone through a slit in the wall. "I'm sorry about your sister. She... she's afraid to get hurt, and she fears that one day she'll have to watch you die."
"It's okay." Sunkit quickly shook her sister's bad attitude off. "Can I go and visit Grasskit and Flowerkit? They said they had something really cool to show me!"
Startail nodded her approval. Why should she let Moonkit ruin her day?
It was almost exactly three moons later. Sunkit was talking to Grasskit and Flowerkit.
"That's so exciting!" Grasskit cried.
"Yeah, what's it like being a warrior?" Flowerkit inquired.
"She's only an apprentice, you stupid furball!"
"Well, it's really cool knowing that someday I'll be fighting right by all of the really great warriors, like my father, Shadefoot, and ThunderClan's deputy, Blackfire! But it's kinda sad because I'll have to leave my old life behind and move into a new one. I can't wait until you guys get to become apprentices, though. I'm gonna miss hanging out with you guys all the time!" Sunkit suddenly thought she felt the same way about becoming a warrior as her sister.
"Well, we've only got a few more days..." Flowerkit sounded uncertain.
Moonkit came rushing from the Clan's medicine cat's den suddenly. "Sunkit, I need to talk to you!"
"Um, okay." Sunkit found herself being led off to a quiet corner of the camp. "What is it?"
"I... oh, StarClan, this sounded better in my head. I'm... not going to be a warrior with you. I'm going to be a medicine cat."
Chapter two: How will Sunkit react to Moonkit's refusal to be a warrior? Will Moonkit prove to be a good medicine cat? What will happen at the apprentice ceremonies?
