Dayrise - ThunderClan

## • | Physical Description | •

   ➼ Dayrise is a fairly tall and fairly pretty light cream tabby she-cat with blind blue eyes that once held a bright joy to them. White dapples her fluffy fur most notably covering her face as well as most of her legs and tail. Her ears are on the smaller side giving her a fairly childish look.

## • | Personality | •

➼ Dayrise was a not too nice cat despite being very "friendly" and extroverted. She always said what was on her mind, not caring for later consequence. Problems that arise from her choices never came to mind, even as she hurt those she cared for by accident. Apologies don't come very easily. Peppiness was her middle name, if cats could have middle names. She was quite the bubbly cat who almost never looked upon the dark side of things. This, however, proved to be a problem. Just like apologies, she had issues when it came to grief. Just like how she wasn't the best in covering up her emotions, she was also not too intelligent. How her sister and friends were all smart was beyond her. Even her rival was smarter than her! This annoyed her quite easily, as did most of the things that bugged her. When something doesn't fit her standards, she gets really grumpy and refuses to do anything unless things go her way. Overall, she is an optimistic yet stubborn cat.

### ➼ Kithood

Daykit was the eldest, born to Swallowwing and Wicked. Her siblings were Mistkit and Crowkit. A few days after her birth, Wicked came to visit her and her siblings as he was a RiverClan cat. Since he was cheating with Sage, a loner, Swallowwing refused to let him see the kits. Daykit met her father anyway. Soon, she met several other cats. One day, the young kit ran away to meet her father. After sustaining several injuries, she went back home. However, the cuts got infected and made her go blind. Later, she met both Snowkit and Darkkit. Soon, she decided to follow her brother-figure Smokepaw into the forest. She ended up hitting her head and was dragged back to camp. Not long after, her mother revealed to her that her dad died of infection. After getting over it, she was then informed that her mother died. "The more she hangs around cat's like you the more she is going to get hurt. She's already blind, She doesn't need any more disabilities..", "Because she is MY sister. Not yours! You might want her to be yours. Can't you see all you do is get her hurt! If I were you I would stay away from her. I don't want to see you around her!", "I help her enough, she doesn't need you.", and "Fine... Stay around her. But the next time she gets hurt because of you.. you will know I was right." Daykit came to know that this was what her sister told Smokepaw in order to get him to stay away. Furious, she refused to speak to Crowkit for a while. Alongside Redkit, they tried to prank Featherpaw, but ended up putting the bugs in Beechpaw's nest.

### ➼ Apprenticeship

Daykit was apprenticed to both Rabbitfoot and Rosehaze; Rabbitfoot as he had experience with blind cats and Rosehaze since she was talented. For training, her mentors taught her how to navigate without sight. Not long after, she was told that Smokewisp was dead. After a bit, she went into the territory with Darkpaw. She got stuck in a hole and needed help out since she was about the size of a four-moon old kit. StarClan wasn't something Daypaw liked. When she woke up in StarClan, she saw Smokewisp. Obviously, she was mad, but the two made up. Snowpaw ended up confessing to Daypaw. The other apprentice, being an idiot, rejected him as she liked him as a brother. Snowpaw, obviously knowing that Darkpaw liked her as well, told her that she loved her more than him. She also rejected Darkpaw and said he too was like a brother to him. After some occurrences, she started to hang out with Darkpaw a lot more than any other cat. She even used him as a pillow sometimes! Snowpaw stopped talking to her, so she assumed he didn't want to be friends anymore. She continued to hang out with Darkpaw and made up names like "Daylight" and "Darknight".

### ➼ Warriorhood

Not long after getting their warrior names, Darkglow asked Dayrise to be his mate. Dayrise, after bonding with him during their apprenticeship, said yes. Slowly, she started to realize that she said yes in the heat of the moment and was actually in love with Snowfall. She started talking to her old friend for a bit and confessed that she may not like Darkglow after all. Not long after, she realized she was expecting kits. Deciding that it was for the best, Dayrise stayed with Darkglow. She wasn't the greatest mate. Soon, the ThunderClan-ShadowClan war started. TC retreated and set up camp in No Clans' Land. During this time, Dayrise stopped playing with our best boy's feelings and broke up with him. Fawnkit, Sypresskit, and Ripplekit were born. Not too long after, Dayrise got abducted by twolegs before TC could return to their camp.

### ➼ Kittypet Life

Dayrise was given the name "Queen". While sitting on a tree, she fell, like always, and hit her head hard enough to get amnesia. Soon, Darkglow found her and brought her back to TC. He admitted that he was the father of Fawnkit, Cypresskit, and Ripplekit, but denied that they were ever mates. He also said she was "Dayrise", but she continued with the name "Queen" anyway.

### ➼ Warrior Life

Queen met Rabbitfoot once again. Although he was annoyed she didn't remember a thing, they bonded. She also ended up falling in love with Darkglow, still not aware that she was his ex-mate. Slowly, small bits of memory came to her. She remembered Snowfall, but not the feelings she had for him. She also started to call herself Dayrise, although slipping up a few times. Darkglow eventually asked Dayrise to be his mate again, so she agreed. Eventually, she started expecting her second litter. Slowly, she started to feel pain in her chest. It was soon revealed that there was an issue from the inside; something the medicine cats would never be able to fix. Soon, she confronted Darkglow about Snowfall. It became an argument and they took a break from the relationships. Slowly but surely, she started to feel bad. Of course she didn't say anything until her last moments. During her few minutes, she was surrounded by Darkglow, Rabbitfoot, and Smokestorm. She apologizes to each of them and passes away happily.
