Story Of Moon~Chapter 1

Instructions

Moonkit woke up. Her tail was tickling her nose. Her mother, Silverstripe, Glacierkit, and Glacierkit's mother were all sound asleep. She noticed that there were three other kits in the nursery. /Huh? I thought only Glacierkit was the only other kit besides me!/ she thought. The three kits were already playing on the other side of the nursery. They looked to be about the same age as Glacierkit, who was one moon old. Moonkit was born a couple sunrises ago. One of the she-kits was black, with holly-green eyes, and the other she-kit was white, with blue eyes. The tom-kit was a smoky gray color. She didn't understand why they were here if she and Glacierkit were the only kits in the nursery last night. She decided to go over and talk to them. "Hi..." she mewed quietly. The other kits stopped their game and turned to look at her. "Oh, you're awake now. Do you want to play with us?" the tom-kit asked. "Umm, who are you? I didn't see you last night..." Moonkit replied. "Though I would like to join the game." "Night, why don't you introduce us?" the white she-kit said to the black one. "Okay!" The black one replied. "I'm Night, the white one is Cloud and the gray one is Smoke." "Those are weird names... no offense. Anyways, I'm Moonkit." "What do you mean, weird names?" Smoke asked. "Those are all normal names." "I mean, in the Clans, we have a prefix and a suffix." Silverstripe cut in. "Now Moonkit, I know you didn't mean to offend them, but please apologize." "Okay, I'm sorry guys. Mother, how did they get here?" She asked. "Oh, they were found near the border last night, so we decided to let them into the Clan. They will be staying here in the nursery with us until they are old enough to become apprentices." Silverstripe meowed to Moonkit. "Oh, okay." Moonkit was beginning to like these cats, even though they weren't ThunderClan. Later that day, her father, Stormfeather, came over to the nursery. "So how're you doing, Moonkit? Are you liking those new kits to play with?" He asked. "I've been playing games with them this morning." Moonkit replied. "That's great, Moonkit! It's good that you're making new friends." Stormfeather replied, proud of his kit. "Well, Stormfeather, you've come to see Moonkit?" Silverstripe came out of the nursery to see what Moonkit was up to. "Yes. I promised to come play with her today." Then, he started stomping into the nursery like a badger, while Moonkit scampered away to tell the other kits about the game. Silverstripe sat down at the entrance to the nursery, staring fondly at her kit. "All cats old enough to catch thier own prey gather beneath the Highrock for a Clan meeting!" Robinstar meowed loudly from the top of the rock. "What's all that about?" Night asked Moonkit. Cloud and Smoke seemed to ask the same question with their eyes. "Well, the leader, Robinstar, is calling a Clan meeting. She does that when something important is happening." Moonkit told the other kits. "Well then, let's go!" Night said, but before they could scramble out of the nursery, Glacierkit's mother, Snowtail, cut them off. "Wait, kits. I must come with you to make sure you stay out of trouble. Wake up, Glacierkit, there's a Clan meeting." She said, nudging Glacierkit. "Mother, I'm trying to sleep." Glacierkit mewed. "There's a Clan meeting going on, you don't want to miss that." "Fine, I'll get up." Glacierkit got to his paws and padded into the clearing with the other kits.
