From the moment Bramblekit opened his eyes he knew that he was ready for his first adventure. He had two little sisters Shrewkit and Littlekit, all three of them were the newest additions of LeopardClan.  Bramblekit persistently pawed a her sister Shrewkit, trying to wake her up exceptionally, she all of a sudden then jumped up startling him "I'm trying to sleep! Can't you just go and ask Littlekit if she wants to play or ask mother if you can go to the elder's den!" Bramblekit murmured an insult but it fell on deaf ears since she was already sleeping against her mother, Squirrelspark. Bramblekit watched them, her mother's long dark brown fur swishing against the wind while Shrewkit's was completely smooth. Bramblekit huffed in irritation and went to try her luck with her other sister, Littlekit. Littlekit had white fur with dark brown tabby-ish patches all over her body and her pelt always rises to its full extent whenever she plays with Forestberry's kits. Bramblekit's bronze-coloured pelt swayed in the wind while she was running through the snow. Forestberry was observing them from the shelter of the nursery while all of them were blissfully happy to be playing in the snow. But for a moment Bramblekit briefly stopped playing with the others to see Rushshine Forestberry's sister and a warrior walk out, watching her acutely as she was going out for a border patrol. She then looked on her left side and saw an elder tom called, Redwave. Redwave was a secretive and bad-tempered elder who couldn't stand kits coming into their den, particularly when Bramblekit did that. He despised Bramblekit due to him only being half-Clan. He came storming out of the elder's den. outraged because he found out that he didn't yet receive prey from the apprentices. Hollypaw a pale tortoiseshell she-cat who was Forestberry's previous litter got up reluctantly and grunted getting a plump squirrel from the fresh-kill pile. Suddenly Bramblekit instinctively looked up and yowled "Hawk!" But he warned the elder too late as the hawk came diving down towards Redwave, fatally injuring him.  Tigerfur a warrior who was about to eat immediately raced forwards and twisted underneath the hawk and Stonelight came to his aid as well alongside the deputy Thunderheart. All three toms attacked and startled the hawk making it flap away with loud screech making Bramblekit notice its wounds. Redwave was laying down on his left flank without any movement loudly and deeply breathing as if every breath was more painful than the last as the huge gash wounds on his right flank, throat and back legs, blood now almost melting into the mounds of snow and ice. Bramblekit and the entire Clan did nothing but stare at his lifeless body with stunned expressions, This is the first time Bramblekit saw any cat die like this. Even though Bramblekit wasn't particulary fond of Redwave he still whimpered over his death. Squirrelspark, Shrewkit and Littlekit, immediately rushed to her side to comfort and reassure her. "He's dead because of me!" he whined miserably. His mother Squirrelspark tried to comfort the sad kit by licking him behind his head. The medicine cat, Firefur padded toward the elder with some herbs and tried to use them to heal him but every cat knew that herbs would be of  no help now. Every cat's eyes were filled with sadness and melancholy as they stepped closer to Redwave's body and sat in vigil for him. Bramblekit stepped even more closer than the others tears starting to stream down his tiny face, Silverpelt above started to darken followed by rain and snow turning into hail raining down on them. Bramblekit looked above himself as tears started to stream down longer into his body and the fiery blood still pouring from Redwave's wounded body.
