Chapter One
Rainkit grumbled in annoyance as the rain tumbled on her pelt. She shuffled her paws, quietly scurrying back into the nursery, though when she was an apprentice in a few days she'd have to get used to it. She walked towards the edge of the Nursery, shaking the water out of her long fur. She sat moved to the entrance of the Nursery again, but making sure she didn't move far enough to get that wet.
After a while, Fallenbranch padded into the Nursery. "Hello kits, are you ready for your apprenticeship?" She asked.
"I guess.." Rainkit muttered to herself.
"Well then, let me do one of the next stories." She meowed. The kits nodded in excitement, and gathered around her. "So.. This is the story of.. Dewflame." She meowed. "Dewflame was a young, strong warrior. He was always a loyal cat, until he stumbled upon a loner." She meowed. "The loners name was Mince. Now, Mince was different than most loners, she was smart, cunning, something Dewflame liked. He took her to the Clan leader at the time-"
"Rookstar!" Rainkit mewed, remembering the leaders name.
Fallenbranch nodded, "Correct, so Dewflame brought Mince to Rookstar, and Rookstar declared her worthy of joining SharpClan, and renamed her Mousefoot." She took a breath, before continuing "Mousefoot thought SharpClan was pretty good, until she saw how the broken, unfixable, and odd looking were treated. She questioned Dewflame, asking how he could live through this." She took another breath, then continued, "Dewflame responded 'They aren't proper, for they were born or became odd, and can't be seen,' Mousefoot, horrified with this, ran to see in a rock den two cats, one with a crippled leg, and one that was blind. She plotted to save them, but was discovered by Dewflame."
Rainkit glanced at her siblings then to her paws, knowing she was probably a marked. "Dewflame reported this to Rookstar, and then Mousefoot was brought up, and forced down. Mousefoot thought Dewflame was good, but he stepped forwards, and told her 'This is for trying to save the ones who will never be worth it' and killed her." Fallenbranch meowed ominously.
Heronkit who had been quiet for a time mewed, "So the story means to keep the Marked ones alone for they don't help the Clan."
Fallenbranch nodded, "Correct Heronkit." She looked over the kits silently eying them.
"Does that mean I'm a marked cat?" Rainkit asked, blinking her silver eyes.
"That's for Jetstar to decide Rainkit, I can't choose if you are or not." Fallenbranch replied solemnly.
Rainkit nodded silently, staring at her paws, hoping she wouldn't be a Marked.
Jetstar then called a meeting, and the cats started gathering below the SpikeRock.

Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I know it seems odd to have gray eyed cats and call silver eyes odd, it just is for the story.
Don't forget to comment, vote and all that!
Much Love,
