chapter 2: same father?

echokit opened her eyes. she was in a bright, warm,place. surrounded by brambles. echokit? a voice mewed. she sat up and looked around. she was sitting next to two other kits, both ginger. the cat who had spoken was standing over her, her gaze bright green. your awake! she exclaimed. the cat called to the kits next to her. palekit, wrenkit, come meet you new sister! but, momma, she's not our real sister! they protested. shush! the she-cat scolded. you share the same father, so you are her kin.

the same father? what could that mean? echokit wondered. where is my real mother? she was taken from her thoughts when a broad shouldered cat stroad into the nursery. doveheart? he mewed. what has happened- oh! you opened your eyes! he exclaimed, gazing at echokit. she trotted over to him, looking straight into his amber eyes. he turned his head down. well, hello there, the tom told her. I am your father, oakfur. and this is your brother and sister, palekit and wrenkit. welcome to shadowclan, young one.

echokit still had no idea what was going on. all she knew was that she was a kit in shadowclan, her father was called oakfur, and she had two half-siblings. still, she felt like there was something... off about her. like there was something before...

anyway, palekit meowed, lets play a game! uh, no thanks, echokit responded. I think I'm going to go help with sorting herbs. but you always help with sorting herbs! wrentit protested. and you never play with us! you do want to be a warrior, right? well... actually.. I want to be a medicine cat! she exclaimed.
