SorrelFeather's POV

I waved my tail back and fourth for LongKit to catch. He was the runt of WindClan making him look newborn kit even though he was 4 3/4 moons. His mother; BlazeFace, was in the entrance of the nursery watching us and smiling. She was one of the only cats who accepted me here. WhiskerStar did too. I am a former kittypet and it's hard for cats to forget when I still can't get off my bright blue collar with the the golden charm with my old name on it. Fluffy.
"SorrelFeather! SorrelFeather! Can you tell us another dog story?" LongKit's littermates had come out to join him.
"Yes tell us a new one." His quiet sister SunKit was even excited.
"And make it really excitingly!" That was BerryKit, his boisterous brother. The biggest of the bunch.
BlazeFace saved me.
"Cmon kits, stop nagging SorrelFeather. She needs to go on patrol."
"I do?" I asked.
"Yes you do kittypet!" SpiderHill's sharp voice spoke from behind me. "A hunting patrol."
"Stop ordering me around you foxheart!" I yowled and went into the forest with RowanNose and SpiderHill.
"Don't let his words sting you SorrelFeather.." RowanNose was next to me in a heartbeat.
"I don't, he's a foxheart." I said matter of factly.
"Even though your a former kitty pet, your strong and fast." He carried on almost not hearing me. I hated this sappy stuff.

LongKit's POV

Being the smallest in the litter is hard, my brother; BerryKit is already strong and SunKit is so fast. I'm just small. Very small. I'm scared for my first gathering in a few moons, what if the other apprentices laugh at me. Will my littermates stick up for me? I looked up at my mother telling a story about her first big battle. She was a good story teller and fighter. And I didn't even realise I was falling asleep.

SorrelFeather's POV

After the tiresome patrol I was just about ready to collapse in my nest when RowanNose came up to me.
"I had fun hunting with you, we make a really good team." He said. I could only nod due to my tiredness.
"Have you even considered finding a mate?" He asked his eyes glowing.
"H-huh?" I couldn't believe it. He liked me?
"With me?" He continued.
"I don't think so." I said keeping a straight face. "I love kits but I don't want to be confined to camp when I could be helping. I have all the love I need from LongKit, SunKit and BerryKit."
RowanNose had s surprised and utterly crushed expression on his face before it turned to anger and he stormed off. RowanNose was strong and not a good cat to make an enemy out of but despite my worrying I fell asleep pretty fast.

LongKit's POV

A darkness surrounded me and a pale light glowed in the distance. A sprung over to it to see I was on an island.
"Woah!" I called out and a cat ran out of the shadows after hearing me.
"LongKit!? How are you here? Did you follow me?" It was SorrelFeather.
"I-I just woke up here. Where are we?" This was scary.
"You have been called by starclan to create a new clan far away." I voice sounded from behind us. "I am ThistleStar, the leader before CopperStar. I have chosen you too leave your clans and create a new, strong clan. WolfClan. Each former leader has chosen two cats from each clan. I have chosen you."
"But LongKit's still a kit! What about his mother?" SorrelFeather called out loudly. I knew what had to be done. I loved my mother and my siblings but starclan thinks I'm special and chose me. I had to go.
"I don't mind SorrelFeather. My mother has my brother and sister and I have you. Starclan has chosen us!" I puffed out my chest.
"I have chosen you for different reasons. SorrelFeathers compassion and your inner strength." ThistleStar was weaving around us. "Meet the others on the island in two days. It is then you will go."
