Chapter I _____________________________________________________________________________________________
Rainkit kept her eyes tightly shut, even though the voices around her encouraged her to open them. She squeaked in reply when a cat tried to pry open her eyes."Why won't she open her eyes?" A small voice mewed. "Because she's not ready," another voice meowed. "When will she be ready?" the first voice complained. "That's Rainkit's choice."*Rainkit stretched open her eyes for the first time, gasping at the size of everything. After she looked around for a little bit, she saw a grey pelted cat, which judging by her smell was Rainkit's mother. There was another kit there, but she had a black pelt."Silvermoon! Silvermoon! Rainkit opened her eyes!" The black kit mewed excitedly. She bounced up to Rainkit. "I'm Brightkit.""Hello, little one," Silvermoon purred. "Can we go explore?" Brightkit asked. "If you promise not to get under anyone's paws," Silvermoon replied."It'll be nice if we could get a little peace around here," A brown tabby meowed. "Brightkit is always meowing about something or other," she joked. "That's only because there's so much to talk about, Birdpetal," Brightkit protested. Come on, Brightkit!" Rainkit urged as she bounced out of the nursery."Woah." Rainkit's mouth dropped open. "It's so big!" The camp was settled on an island, with a wide river flowing on all sides of it. There were several bushes and fallen logs, presumably dens for that cats. There was a tree at the far end of the island, which was stripped of it's branches.
