"...She'll have to be an elder as soon as she leaves the nursery."
Poppyfrost and Mousewhisker definitely didn't want that for their kit.

"Then we can hang her up in a tree and the kits can throw nuts and berries at her!" Jayfeather grumbled. "Jayfeather!" Poppyfrost protested, clearly not enjoying his attitude. Suddenly a yowl came from the Highledge: "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey join here beneath the Highledge for a Clan meeting!"

They all ran over. Their leader looked a bit nervous about something...but what?

"join the elders den, he" the leader was cut off by his friend. "He was injured on a patrol this morning, and he's sick of it," Graystripe grumbled. "Graystripe!" Purred Sandstorm, "did you get your personality back?" ...

"We wish you many moons of rest." Firestar granted to his old friend. "Also," Firestar continued. "We have three new apprentice. Dapplekit, Frostkit, AND Brightkit, would you please step forward?

The kits bounced up in down in excitement, but Brightkit looked at her paws. She was unsure of this. Dapplekit pushed past the others and hopped onto the rock, her little claws scrambling to get up. "Dapplekit," started the leader, "your mentor will be Hazeltail..."

"Frostkit, I, Firestar, will mentor you." He turned to Brightkit "And Brightkit's mentor will be...
Brightheart!"

"Is this because we share the same name?" Brightkit wondered, "Or because I can't see yet?" The little kit was full of hope that she would bet her sight in due time, and that all kits were blind at first. Nobody wanted to destroy her spirit by telling her she'd never be able to see. Brightheart looked very proud to have gotten her first apprentice since Jayfeather, but....

seemed to feel sorry for the young cat. "Come here" she told Brightkit. Brightkit dashed over. "Today we will train with Firestar and Frostkit" she announced. Brightkit found her way over to Firestar, after bumping two trees. She really hoped she'd be able to see again soon.
Someone make Brightheart tell her soon... it's getting sad lol.

Brightheart looked sadly at her apprentice. "Um, Brightpaw.. there's something I need to tell you," she whispered. Brightkit looked up at the half-blind warrior, or at least in her general direction. "Yep Brightheart?" she meowed. "Your six moons old... I know you hope to see soon but..." she frowned as the young cat's whiskers drooped. "Young cats may all be blind, but only for half a moon. Brightpaw I doubt you'll ever be able to see..." Finished the warrior. "I..." started Brightpaw...

Brightpaw felt like she was going to cry (can cats cry? I don't know...but for the sake of the story, let's say they can).
"I'll...never...see?"

"I'm afraid not," Brightheart mewed sadly, bending to lick the young she-cat's tortoiseshell head. Distant memories of her own past came flooding back; memories she tried so hard to push away. If it wasn't for Cloudtail she didn't know how she would have carried on after her accident. "That just makes you different though, Brightpaw. You ccan still hear, and smell can't you? Besides Jayfeather manages perfectly well."

"But what if a warrior sneaks up on me in battle and I can't tell where he is and then I get killed?!" she meowed quickly, words tumbling from her mouth. Brightheart licked the young cat's ear. "I'll help you," she meowed...
