Junglekit

**Junglekit** also defined as The Chosen One is the hero destined to wield the Jungle Spear to stop the Midelgard from overthrowing Kanahiem. He is River's brother, and a very close friend of Foxface.

## Appearance

Junglekit is a slender edgeling domestica with light green fur. His eyes are dark green, and his tribe scar is on his left eye. The fur on his chest and belly are a slightly lighter shade of green than the rest of his fur. He has small dark green claws that look as if they were made of pure emeralds. His tail is of medium length. His eyes are shaped in a way that make it appear as if he is always frowning (this trait is shared with all Alfierch jungle natives.) His nose is small, and his pale green whiskers are medium length. He has no fringe, and the tufts of fur on the sides of his face are neatly brushed into a curved triangular shape.

## Personality

Junglekit is notably one of the more serious members of Foxface's team, even more than Foxface himself. His deep voice and stern expression further enforces his serious presence. From the beginning of his introduction, it is very clear he is very loyal to Foxface, and will follow his orders through and through. Even if some things Foxface does conflict with Junglekit's personal beliefs, he will still obey. Junglekit often spends his time working out to make sure he is in proper shape for the day he must fulfil his prophecy as The Chosen One. He naturally gets along well with the other edgelings in Foxface's crew, such as Darkijust. Junglekit's bond with his brother, River, is one of his driving motivators in life, and throughout the story, his determination to redeem his brother is part of why he goes to certain lengths. When Foxface is feeling down, Junglekit and Todd are the two who are often there to cheer him up the most. A majority of Foxface's team look up to him for various reasons, mostly being his strength and self-discipline.

When he isn't focused on increasing his strength and protecting the civilians of the clan, Junglekit secretly wishes that he could return to his home tribe and help them. Considering how little resources they have in comparison to the rest of the tribes and cities on Alfier, Junglekit wishes to repay those who raised him by contributing to the expansion of their territory. He suffers from homesickness often, and even searches for excuses for Foxface and his team to stop by Alfier during missions. This homesickness resulted in him renovating his bedroom in the RaccoonFoot Mansion to be crowded with plants that grew exclusively in the Alfierch jungle.

Junglekit is noticeably very avoidant of romantic relationships, and has no interest in dating, as he fears that something tragic could happen to his partner due to the weight he carries as The Chosen One. Even after growing close to Agent Fire Fox, he left her before their friendship could grow into something more, hoping that it would keep her safer in the end. That being said, he is very sympathetic towards Foxface whenever he is grieving Yumi, and has helped Gemini and Darkijust apologize to each other after they have a brief falling out.

## Story

### Youth

Junglekit was raised with his brothers and sister in the Alfierch jungle, completely unaware of the prophecy he was destined to fulfil in the future. He and his siblings, Riverkit, Cloverkit, and Featherkit, were very close. Riverkit always had a dream that the siblings were destined for greatness. He and Junglekit were the closest of the siblings, relying on each other like best buds through and through. As they got older, their mother dubbed them their youth names: Jungle Prince, Raging River Rapids, Tail of Clovers, and Feathered Winds. Junglekit rejected the name change, much to his family's surprise. River was amused by his choice, and started to refer to himself as just River. Around this time, Junglekit felt an abnormal longing, as if a part of him was missing. He had dreams and visions of a strange spear hidden in the jungle of Alfier, but had no clue what it could mean. River insisted that they were the first signs of the siblings' greatness, and declared the four of them should go on a journey out to see Kanahiem. Tail of Clovers and Feathered Winds were afraid of the idea, and decided to stay at home, so Junglekit and River left to see the world of Kanahiem.

For a few years, they wondering which of the four clans they'd fit in the best in. Junglekit's dreams began to grow less frequent the longer he stayed on Kanahiem. River on the other hand felt that their brotherly destiny was to be revealed to them soon. The king of RaccoonFoot Clan at the time, Pittsford Fang, was very dependent on his deputy, Starsilver Tiger, who seemingly acted more like a king than Pittsford did. Starsilver asked the brothers if they'd be interested in joining the RaccoonFoot Military, and they agreed. Quickly moving up the ranks, both Junglekit and River found themselves at the top of the Alpha Facility. It was then that Junglekit had a dream where he was greeted by the prophecy tellers, revealing to him that one day, he would wield the almighty Jungle Spear in combat to protect Kanahiem from the powerful Midelgard of Teyrotat. The following morning, Junglekit hesitantly informed his brother of the destiny that was laid out before him, and at first River excitedly supported him, secretly hoping his own prophecy would be granted soon after. However, that prophecy never came. While they continued to train together in the military, River slowly grew less hopeful, and slowly began to realize the great big destiny he dreamed of was one exclusive to Junglekit.

### Meeting Foxface

Junglekit is supposedly one of the three characters who knew Foxface before he made his first public appearance in the training facilities of the clan. He and River remained in the Alpha Facility for several years while Starsilver Tiger became king, who was followed by Solarisu. A young mysterious fox by the name of Foxface had recently made an appearance in the facilities, and Junglekit was impressed by his power. The two became acquaintances quickly, before eventually growing to be close friends. River also befriended Foxface, but was always perplexed as to why he wore a hoodie that shielded his eyes entirely. Junglekit soon saw Foxface's ambition as a leader, and began to respect him as if he was already the king.

### Feral Fury

#### The Beginning

Junglekit is quickly established as one of the stronger characters on the team, even in comparison to Foxface himself. Unlike the rest of the group, he doesn't need to go through several trials to prove himself worthy to serve a king. Throughout their quests, Junglekit serves as a mentor figure for many of the others, and even Foxface asks for his guidance at times. After Solarisu's death, Junglekit continued to loyally serve Foxface as the new king. Meanwhile, he noticed River's unease, and began to ask him what troubled him so much. River admitted that he felt left out since he wasn't a special "Chosen One" and Junglekit quickly did his best to lift his spirits by reassuring him that he didn't need to be a prophesised hero to be special.

#### Half Moons

Junglekit is not nearly as significant in the second chapter of the series, but his bond with his brother is further demonstrated. As the team goes on the Earth Mission, Junglekit looks down on humans because of their inferior strength, whereas River is amused by how odd they look. Shortly after returning to Kanahiem, the prophecy tellers give Junglekit a hint on the whereabouts of the Jungle Spear.

#### Hellfire

River starts to get angered and turns his back on the team because he feels he is not receiving equality. Also knowing the whereabouts of the Jungle Spear, he leaves the team to start his own gang of followers that will assist him in seeking the valued weapon of legend. Junglekit makes several desperate attempts to convince his brother to stay with them, but nothing works. Junglekit decides to leave to Alfier in search of the Jungle Spear, hoping he will find it before River does. The spear is not found, and Junglekit is called back to Kanahiem by Foxface. After hearing about the deaths of Yumi and Bright Eyes, Junglekit is utterly heartbroken by the cruel actions of his brother. After River disappears again, Junglekit pursues him and they meet on Alfier where they once again race to find the Jungle Spear. Junglekit does not appear again for the rest of the book.

#### Assault

Junglekit is not a major character in this chapter, and is mostly mentioned in the background as his quest to find the Jungle Spear is continued. It isn't until the last third of the chapter where it is revealed River had gotten hold of the spear first, but Junglekit was easily able to outsmart him, managing to steal the spear and harnessing its hidden power for the first time. Now with the legendary weapon he was destined to wield, Junglekit feels complete, but can't help feel miserable at the fact that his brother is still his enemy.

#### Warbound

Junglekit reappears as a more important character now, constantly using every opportunity he can to track down his brother to try and change his mind. He makes friends with another edgeling cat by the name of Agent Fire Fox (who isn't even a fox, but is a cat) who is an ally of the Wolf Rush Crew. She and Junglekit work together to create the lure that will lead Saxon's ship closer to the shore so that it will be easier to ambush him. Their plan ultimately works, but then Agent Fire Fox is put in severe danger, and Junglekit must traverse the ocean completely on his own in order to rescue her. It turns out this was one of Saxon's own traps in retaliation, and it nearly works, but the pirate lynx poorly underestimated Junglekit's strength. After having the Wolf Rush Crew pursue Saxon as he fled, this leaves the main cast with their chance to corner River. Standing face to face with his brother once again, Junglekit is ordered to kill him, but he cannot even lift his spear, and Foxface kills River instead. A strange combination of relief and heartbreak flooded over Junglekit as his brother is slain. He is not present for the remainder of the book.

#### Apocalypse: The Finale

At the beginning of the book, Soul gives both River and Yumi a second chance at life. Darkijust is sent to take Junglekit with him to greet the two as they crossover back into the living world. Junglekit, reunited with his brother, has a long awaited talk with him. He reminds River that he doesn't have to be born special in the eyes of the spirits to be special to him, and River finally seems to realize this. With immense strength thanks to his endless training, Junglekit proves to be one of the most powerful units on Foxface's side. Foxface takes Junglekit with him to meet up with Skytail II while planning their battlefield formation tactics before the war with the other two clans. During the war, Junglekit shows his true strength, easily taking down countless Shonokan soldiers completely on his own, and his strength enhances further when River appears by his side to fight next to him. After the war has finally ended, Junglekit and River decide to catch up with each other, now that they're on the same side again. They briefly return to their home tribe where they are reunited with their brother and sister. He is not seen again until the epilogue book.

### Epilogue

It is reported that Junglekit eventually withdraws from the RaccoonFoot Military two years after Todd becomes the king, and seeks out an allegiance with Skytail II and his son, Xiao-shen. His quest to prevent the Midelgard from overthrowing Kanahiem begins, and his prophecy as The Chosen One is set in motion.
