A Troubled Flame

Chapter 5

Flamekit walked back into the nursery and saw Bluekit asleep next to Shadow. The ginger shecat walked over to her sister and nudged her softly.

"Bluekit, wake up. I need to talk to you." She whispered to the sleeping white shecat. Bluekit poked her head up blinking her eyes toward her.

"Huh? Why?" Bluekit asked still half-asleep.

"Just come and I'll explain when we talk." Flamekit said and flicked her tail as she headed out of the den and headed next to the nursery in the shade so they couldn't be seen.

"What is this about?" Bluekit asked.

"Have Halfkit and his siblings always been picking on me?" Flamekit asked seriously as she sat down and curled her ginger tail around her paws.

"Huh? No they haven't. They made fun of me way more then they made fun of you." The white shecat said softly.

"Tell me the truth. I heard it from Silverkit anyways. He said that they had picked on me because I was the runt even though I was born first." She said shifting slightly.

"That's not true! Your not the runt of the family! You will probably grow to be bigger then all of us." Bluekit quickly said trying to help her sister.

"Thanks a whole lot." Flamekit hissed under her breath. She couldn't believe her sister would be lying to her right now.

"Is this really how you are going to treat me? I thought you would of been a better sister then that." Bluekit said her round blue eyes filled with hatred.

"A better sister? You're suppose to be the one that calms us all down! Did you even notice we all headed out tonight without you?" Flamekit asked anger filling her voice.

"You did what?! But we aren't allowed in the camp at night! Shadow said that until we were three moons old we couldn't go out in the dark."

"And look at what we are doing right now! We aren't in the nursery. We are outside it in the dark alone without Shadow to guard us or Heatstar to protect us." Flamekit said looking around her. They were alone and outside the nursery indeed.

"Well let's get back inside. If Shadow knew we were outsi-" Bluekit was cut off right there.

"Who cares if we are outside the nursery! I don't care. I'll go where I want just to show my worth because I'm going to be a better warrior then all of you and train harder." Flamekit hissed.

"Who's going to show you? Your new best friend? What is his name... Oh yea, it's Blackpaw the apprentice." Bluekit said sourly.

Flamekit was taken back by this. She hung her head for a second. Her only sister was just as bad as her brothers. Maybe she should hang out with Blackpaw and see if he would teach her anything. Flamekit raised her head and met Bluekit's eyes then walked back to the nursery without saying another word to the white shecat.

Another chapter dedicated to Spokenwrites well they all are today. I hope you like the chapter and didn't cry to much over the sisterly tear in their relationship. Updates should be back to normal since I don't have writers block anymore. Also, we add nearing the end of this book. I didn't want them to be that long since I just wanted a book for each of the main five as a kit and one for their mother's backstory. I hope you liked the chapter and don't forget to leave a vote and a comment!
