Chapter 11~ Related
Fernkit could hear her foster brother snoring.
Again.
She heard Owlkit roll onto his back and sigh.
"Owlkit?" She whispered.
"I'm awake." He obviously knew that she wanted something. "What?"
"Let's go out." Fernkit remembered her first day out of the nursery.
That was awesome!
But this time, she meant out out.
"Umm... but it's the middle of the night!"
"The full- moon makes it brighter." Then she remembered what Waterheart had said.
"Come back tomorrow night, when most of the clan is at the gathering. I can tell you more then."
I forgot!
"Common, Owlkit! Let's go."
"Uh-"
She didn't let him protest. She ran out quietly.
"Hey! Wait up!" Owlkit called softly and ran after her.
"You came!" Waterheart exclaimed as a small grey kit burst in.
"Ugh! Waterheart, please, don't be too loud. I'm trying to sleep." Spotear grumbled.
"Oh hush." Waterheart murmured this is more important."
"No it's not..." The tom drifted off, snoring.
"I did come." Fernkit mewed.
Another kit followed.
"And who's this?"
"This is Owlkit. He's here because-" She broke off. "That's not important." She announced. "What more do you have to say about these 'Shadowcats'?"
"Well... that white kit you saw- that wasn't me. That was my father's mother." Waterheart started.
"What?" Fernkit cocked her head. "But she looked just like you!"
"I know. But that wasn't me. It was my father's mother."
"But why do only you know about these Shadowcats?"
"Because," Waterheart sighed. "There was a prophesy passed down from mother- or father- to kit, and it reached me. My father told it to me. He said that his mother told him never to forget, and to tell only one of his kits. He chose me."
"Who told your father's mother?"
"Her mother. The medicine cat that received the message. Leafheart."
"The medicine cat had kits?" Fernkit meowed. "I don't think that's allowed."
"It's not."
"What are you talking about?" Waterheart had forgotten that there was another kit with them.
"Stuff that you wouldn't understand." Fernkit shook her grey fur.
"I didn't have any kits, so I had no one to tell. Then you came along."
"What was the prophesy?" The kit questioned.
"I'll tell you when you're alone. But when you are, the lost legacy will be found again."
