Of course I didn't forget this story!
"Wolfkit?"
I tried to snuggle closer, but instead stumbled on my laws and tripped, yowling. My mother sighed. "When are his eyes going to open?"
"I don't know, but it all comes in their own time," another voice answerd wearily.
Pearlkit frowned. "Mom! But it's already been a quarter moon!"
"He just needs more time," she whispered, but to me it sounded too much like a plea.
"Mom! Mom!" Pearl kit shrieked. "It's Wolfkit!"
I sighed. "What, again?"
"His eyes just opened. Look, they're this dark blue." She began leading her to me, her paws twitching excitedly. "Finally! I was so bored the last few days!"
I frowned. This wasn't what I thought seeing would be like. I thought it would be... More different. "Is it hard at first?" I asked.
Pearlkit shrugged. "I dunno. You just go with it. You can see me now, right?"
Panic jolted through me like a lightning bolt. "I- No! I can't! The only thing I see is darkness!"
"Yes you can, dear, don't be silly," my mom sighed. "Darkness means black. No color at all. Can you see anything at all?"
"No! I've told you again and again!" I growled. "What's going on?"
"Is everything going on all right with the kits?" There was a rustle in the bushes, and I heard the distinct voice of another cat- a she-cat, by the sounds of it. "They getting along together fine?"
"It's not that, Embertail. This kit over here thinks he can't see."
"Hm." She bent down over, her thick flowery scent washing over me. "Let me take a look." There was a shuffle, and she said, "how many claws did I unsheath?"
"I don't know!" Frustration ran through me. "I can't see anything at all!"
She paused. "What color is my pelt?"
"Why don't you get it?" I shrieked. "There's only darkness!"
Embertail's whiskers twitched. Turning to my mother, she meowed quietly, "I think he's blind."
"What's that supposed to mean?" I snarled.
Pearlkit didn't answer for quite a while. "I think it means that you're kind of useless."
My claws began to unsheath.
