Chapter 3
"Your new name, until you begin your warrior training, will be Flowerkit."Flowerkit smiled shyly at Froststar, StormClans leader. Froststar was an orange tabby she-cat with deep brown eyes. She had been kind to little Flower, and had chosen to give her a Clan name, while still keeping her old one.
"Ugh, great, will I have to share the nursery with her?!!," Spottedkit growled. "I REALLY don't want to." Spottedkit gave Flowerkit a glare that could kill, then looked with pouting eyes at Spiderclaw. "Can I sleep in your den?"
Spiderclaw noticed that Flowerkit was upset by his daughter, and said "No, Spottedkit, you can't. You're not even an apprentice, so why would you get to sleep in the warriors den?" Spiderclaw then nuzzled both of his daughters. "Well, I have to go on patrol. Spottedkit, why don't you show your SISTER," he emphasized "sister" with a glare at Spottedkit, "how to make a nest in the nursery. She needs to learn."
Spiderclaw walked away without another word, leaving the two sisters alone.
"OK, listen up kittypet," Spottedkit hissed at Flowerkit after he left. "Spiderclaw is MY father, not yours, so don't even THINK about you belonging here. You are a KITTYPET, and kittypets don't belong in Clans. They are just too stupid to survive here. AND they're soft, too, and they are WEAK!!!"
Flowerkit looked down at her paws, tears coming to her eyes as she listened to her half-sister tease her.
Oh, Mom, she thought. How could you have left me here? WHY did you go away?
"... and you will. NEVER. EVER. EVER. Belong," Spottedkit finished. "Now go make your OWN nest, or are you too weak and stupid to do it?" Then, out of nowhere, she jumped on Flowerkit and started to "play", taking her poor sister to the ground.
"If you tell ANYONE what I told you," she whispered into her ear, "I'll SHRED you." And with that, she walked away and acted like nothing had happened.
Flowerkit had never felt so alone in her whole, short life. Where is Sweetie?, she thought, And where do I belong? Flowerkit padded slowly away to the nursery to try and make her nest.
Sunheart had seen what had happened with Spottedkit, and she didn't like it. She had not known that she was a bully, and wanted to try to make Flowerkit feel better. I HAVE to stop Spottedkit's bullying, Sunheart thought. Flowerkit doesn't deserve to be treated like this!!!
