RainClan: Dark Beginnings: Book one

Chapter One

Silverkit stretched and blinked open her eyes, the huge nursery loomed into her view, with a small struggle she wiggled out of the nest, only to look back at her mothers sleeping form. Wow! Sageblossom was much prettier than she imagined!  

She recognized the scents of her litter-mates coming from outside the den, she padded closer to the opening of the den, but before she could step paw out of the den, a soft paw clamped her tail to the ground, "Where are you going little one?" The purr came from her mother, Sageblossom.

 Silverkit sat up and pulled her tail from under her mothers paw and looked up at her, "I wanted to go play with the others.." She pricked her ears and noted at how beautiful her mothers eyes were, almost like glowing moss.

Sageblossom purred and tucked her back in the nest, then gathered the rest of the kits and washed everyone, "Snakestar will be here soon, he wants to see you all!"

Honeykit purred lightly, her blue eyes sparkling, "Will he bring us fresh-kill?" She lashed her tail eagerly.

Sageblossom purred softly, "You're a bit too young for fresh-kill." She licked us then sat by us, waiting for Snakestar.

Snakestar arrived and looked down at his kits proudly, then at Sageblossom, "Their lovely, you did well." He licked her cheek softly.

Sageblossom blushed in turn, "I wonder if Willowfeather would like a visit?" She glanced at the elders den.

Snakestar looked down at Silverkit, something flashed across his gaze and he mumbled, "A prophecy.."
