6 moons later
Foxkit listened as his brother leaped out of the nursery with so much energy bursting from his pelt.
"Let's play!" Blazekit yowled.
The bracken colored tom rested his muzzle on his front paws. "I wanted to go play..." he whispered to himself.

As he listened he could feel his mother's gaze rest upon his fur.
"You will get to play soon" she told him everyday.
"But the other's don't want me to play with them, especially Falconwing's litter..." he kept telling her. 

Redwillow nuzzled the bracken colored tom and sighed.
"I have already decided, Breezewing should take you in as his apprentice. I have already spoken to him and he has agreed." she told him.
"What?" Foxkit yowled and spun on his heels, rage burning through his fluffy fur.
"What in the name of Starclan!" Falconwing yowled as she opened her eyes. 
"Foxkit!" Redwillow cried out as he ran out of the den. 

Foxkit felt brambles slice open his flesh but he kept going, on and on until he had stop at a pond.
"W-were am I?" he said still panting. The forest was dark and eeri Suddenly a very dark brown cat came out of the shadows and leaped on top of the young kit.
"Welcome to the whisper claw forest young one..." she grunted. 

Foxkit could see many scars that must have bled for the longest time.
"I notice that your looking at my scars" The cat mewed.
"I-I didn't know that-" The stranger cut him off.
"I don't mind, the many scars tell a cat if there opponent is really experienced." The she-cat said with a proud voice.
"So are you a really strong rank in your clan?" Foxkit asked, very interested. 

"In a clan?" The she-cat's harsh laugh scared him. "There is no clan here, in fact your just in luck I am the leader of this place" The brown cat got off and pick him up. 

The yowls of cats came from the distance and Foxkit shivered.
"Sounds like a battle is happening! By the way im Shadeheart" Shadeheart ran off in the direction and the tiny bracken colored tom follow.
