Chapter 3
Tinykit sat in her nest in the nursery. Whitail had made well sure she'd stay away from her and her brothers. "Your making the nest reek of your pathetic scent!" Whitetail had hissed.
Tinykit sighed. It had been half a moon since her dream with Kestrelflight.
She had hissed at Kestrelflight, saying the only cat she'd be, was a warrior.
But now, she felt like she'd rather not be around her brothers.
Whenever she went near her brothers, Whitetail had growled at her, showing Tinykit her teeth and claws.
She stood up from her nest. She hopped down from the oak and padding toward the willow tree where the warriors den used to be.
Sorrelstar had decided that WindClan needed all the skills they could get, so she had decided to start teaching the Clan to climbing and swimming. Since the territorys they lived by didn't have any kind of moorland, WindClan was okay with trees on they're territory.
Sorrelstar had ordered the warriors and apprentices to start digging a nest under the roots of the oak tree where the nursery was. The den under the oak was to become the new warriors den, and the willow was to become a place where kits, apprentices and even warriors could train climbing.
Tinykit leaped up the willow and started scrambling higher.
Suddenly claws hooked her flank, pulling her down.
Tinykit turned around. With a hiss she realized it was Whitetail.
Whitetail took her scruff and threw her down. "And stay there!" Whitetail hissed before leaping down to get Juniperkit, Webkit and Thymekit.
Tinykit sighed, and started crawling towards Tallwhisker's den.
"Tinykit what happened this time?" Tallwhisker bounded over, starting to lick Tinykit's wounds.
Tallwhisker took Tinykit by the scruff and took her to the medicine den. She started applying cobwebs on her bleeding flanks.
"Tallwhisker.." Tinykit meowed after a little times thinking.
"Yes Tinykit?" Tallwhisker asked, not looking up from Tinykit's scratches.
"I want to become your apprentice.." Tinykit announced at last. She noticed suprise sparkling in Tallwhisker's eyes.
"Really?"
"Really" Tinykit meowed trying to stand up. Tallwhisker immediatly placed a paw on Tinykit's back, gently pressing her down.
"You need rest." She meowed. Tinykit sighed, nodding.
She curled up, drifting to sleep.
Tinykit opened her eyes. She was dreaming. "Kestrelflight?" She asked, letting the echo meow the same.
No awnser.
Suddenly a snow white pelt ran towards her. Tinykit followed her gaze to where the cat was running. The cat was running towards two other cats. One of them was corner, its fur fluffed up. The other one was threatingly hissing, clawing the cornered cat.
Suddenly Tinykit's vision blurred. She was back in her nest in the medicine cat den. "Rabbit dung..." Tinykit muttered, sitting up.
"Ah Tinykit! Your awake!" Tallwhisker meowed, padding towards her. "I need your help." Tallwhisker meowed. "Come on. You said you wanted to be my apprentice, right?"
Tinykit looked up at her. "Yeah."
"Good. You can help me organize herbs. You'll learn something." Tallwhisker meowed, padding towards her store.
"This," Tallwhisker meowed, taking some leaves from her store. "Is catmint. It cures greencough." Tallwhisker meowed, placing the leaves back in her store. Then she took out some berries. "These are juniper berries. They help to ease breathing and bellyaches." Tinykit listened.
It was quiet interesting
After awhile, Tallwhisker had gone trough all her herbs, and was quizing Tinykit. "Juniper helps to ease breathing and bellyaches. Catmint helps to cure greencough. Feverfew helps to cool fever. Marigold helps with infection. Cobwebs help to stop bleeding, and i can't remember more." Tinykit finished.
Tallwhisker let out a purr. "You remember almost all the herbs you know."
"Really?" Tinykit asked, her eyes bright. Tallwhisker let out a mrrow of amusment. "Yes."
