Snakekit looked around the ShadowClan nursery after opening up his eyes. He looked beside him to see his sister, Barkkit, and his brother, Newtkit, sleeping next to him. Barkkit was curled close up to their mother, Appleshade. Newtkit was off to the side though, and Snakekit went over by his brother to try waking him up.
He nosed his head into his brother's light ginger fur, and it felt a little cold. He nosed further in, but Newtkit wasn't moving. He knew that Newtkit was coughing last night, but he shouldn't of been so ill. He couldn't understand it.
"Appleshade!" he wailed, causing Appleshade to open one amber eyes.
"What's the matter, Snakekit?" she asked, letting out a yawn.
"Newtkit won't wake up," Snakekit wailed again. This time Barkkit woke up.
"Shut up, rat-brain," she hissed at her brother, her blue eyes blazing in fury.
"Barkkit!" Appleshade chastised. "Your brother just found out Newtkit died during the night."
"Whatever," Barkkit mewed, her blue eyes narrowing. "That's no reason to wake me up. Only wake me up if my life is in danger."
She curled back up, in a different corner of the nursery, and fell right back to sleep.
Appleshade took one look at her daughter, shook her tortoiseshell head, and then walked out of the nursery, grabbing Newtkit's limp body on her way.
