To be a kit is to be a varied thing. Some kits, as Bilberrykit has come to understand it, are just like himself. Some of them, disappointingly, are newborn. Smaller than Bilberrykit with closed eyes and short tails. Stranger still are the kits older than Bilberrykit—larger than him, enough so to be nearly grown. Witherkit is like that: taller than Bilberrykit by over a head and out of step with the proportions of his growing body. As Bilberrykit has come to understand, the very same thing will happen to him in the matter of a moon or two.
If words said by his older clanmates are to be believed, the unknowable and unpredictable process of growth spurt has already visited poor Bilberrykit.
“Hold still,” Bilberrykit says—to Witherkit. He’s trapped the older kit in a game. “You’ll look so pretty after…” The only reason Bilberrykit trails off is to scoop up his collection of torn up grass, and the after turns out to be dropping the grass onto Witherkit without ceremony, “There!”
He backs away to admire his work, and instead frowns when he notices Witherkit’s size. “They are gonna make you an apprentice soon. That’s what happens when you get big,” He nods in self agreement—this information is right and good, “Is that scary?”
