## History

Bubblekit and his brother, Palekit were born in Year 5, soon after their mother, Frecklespot, had sought shelter in GalaxyClan. The clan were weary of the three, as Frecklespot had brought some rogue trouble to the clan, and his brother, Palekit, looked exactly like Stoneleaf, but in a brighter yellow. The uneasiness with them grows, as senior warriors of the clan find out that their mother, is also Stoneleaf's mother.

In Year 6, Bubblepaw became an apprentice, and got the leader, Burdockstar, as his mentor. She wanted to keep an eye on Frecklespot's children, but couldn't bring herself to train Palekit, as Stoneleaf's betrayal still hurt her deeply. However during his apprenticeship, Bubblepaw had wandered out of the camp on his own, and got ambushed by a rogue, leaving him with a large scar. It would have been murder, if Burdockstar didn't come to chase off the rogue. His mother seemed rather dismissive to his injury, and the ones that looked over him the most were the, now renamed, Brightpaw and Burdockstar, along with Laketree, the medicine cat. This caused Bubblepaw to resent her, and because she caused the rogue attack on the clan as well. This made him very dedicated to GalaxyClan, him now calling it his "true family." After all that had happened, Burdockstar finally told Bubblespeck, and his brother, Brightmask, about Stoneleaf. She told them "Not to seek revenge by committing murder, as it is against the Warrior Code, and she doesn't want to see them fall down the same path."

In Year 7, Bubblespeck had become concerned for his brother, who had seemingly been seeing and/or traveling through the Dark Forest. He was worried that Brightmask may do something dumb, and didn't quite understand his abilities. However, even if he didn't understand it, he had listened to his brother's stories, and it reinforced the thought, that he would like revenge on the rogues who had hurt him before, he did not want to kill purposely. On a lighter note, Bubblespeck had gained a crush on one of Ravenspot's and Aspenlily's daughters, Patchwing. She thought that scars were cool, and complementing his on "how it makes him look tough." He had been a little self-conscious about his scar, so this might have been what started the crush.

In Year 8, When Patchwing had died at the beginning of the year, he was furious, never being able to tell his feelings to her. He had been snappy this year, and regrets not closely watching his brother while he was upset. Bubblespeck was the one that yowled for help, as he saw, and smelled, Brightmask's wound from the Dark Forest. He thought he lost him too, and thanks the medicine cats, Laketree, and the newer medicine cat, Cinderspeck. There were a lot of cats he would have liked to fight this year, and he was also Brightmask's biggest defender, snarling at any cats who talked badly of his actions. He didn't get an apprentice this year, but he wasn't focused on that, and wouldn't have been the best guide this year.

In Year 9, Bubblespeck sadly died, from being killed by the, then, SharpClan deputy, Sagefern. He was chasing escaping prey for his clan, as it was a harsh Leafbare, and the clan didn't have much to go around, and accidentally crossed the SharpClan border, where Sagefern found him, and harshly killed him. His death led to rising tensions between GalaxyClan and SharpClan, and a small outburst at a gathering had occurred, being led by Bristlethroat and Emberfeather, and his death being one of the reasons. He also mentored Lichenpaw this year, and on her first patrol, they encountered a fox. He told her to climb a tree, while he dealt with it. She instead, climbed, and jumped off the tree, scaring it away. He reprimands her, telling her that he "told her to stay in the tree." She only replied that "He said to climb the tree, not to stay in the tree."

This year as well, He gave Brightstar his 8th life. When he came up, it made Brightstar's heart hurt, and Bubblespeck dipped his head, greeting his brother. He then joked about "Actually staying out of trouble now." He gave him a life for Instincts, while energy surged through Brightstar's pelt.
