[STREAMKIT]

✧ . " Mom! "

His cry finally pushes past his maw, pale eyes flying open to a world anew. No longer does warmth linger in talon-sharp pain at the back of his head. He is pain-free, and for a moment, he thinks he's dodged a prolonged trip to the medicine den, that he'll become an apprentice on time after all and —

His eyes scan his surroundings. No longer does the river's edge encompass his blurred vision, or does he find himself back in the nursery's confines, nestled in neatly between the comfort of his mother's fur and his collection of feathers. Instead, something different. Something new — shining, like the sun reflecting off the river.

This isn't RiverClan. This isn't home.

" Mom...? " he calls out again, his gaze widening as it had prior to… to this. The kitten steps forward, his paws light against the ground of this newfound territory and his vision stinging with each passing moment he fails to find his mother in. " Mom? "

Star-bejeweled tears fall down his face, a sniffle following as fear wells up in his form and threatens to consume him. Is he alone, here? It must be a dream, right? Something like that? He'll wake up in his nest, or… he'll even take waking up in the medicine den! Anything! Anything just to go home, to be an apprentice, to be a RiverClan warrior — to see his family, his friends.

He sniffles once more before calling to the air a new name in hopes of an answer.

" Graykit…? "​

[hyacinthbreath]

There is another star added to their ranks tonight, twinkling and small- a life that had barely started, wiped out in a tragic accident. In the pool of water, translucent and starry, she witnesses the tragedy unfold in front of her. Two kits playing, an accident, and then a sudden and terrible death. Aquamarine tears slip down her cheeks, a mournful expression on her face.

It is only the sound of a child, calling out for his mother and denmate. No, this was no longer RiverClan.

"Hello, young one." Hyacinthbreath exhales, twinkling eyes of grief staring down at the small kit. Her tail flicks behind her, little granules of stars cascading from her silvery blue pelt. She herself was a small cat, but the faint scars of battle and betrayal marked her transparent skin like a brand. It is painful, to welcome a child into the ranks of StarClan. She would wait until some cats who were once RiverClan to arrive first.

"I am Hyacinthbreath. I was of RiverClan many moons ago, and WindClan long before.. What is your name, little minnow?" She asks the young child, ears flicking forward to listen as a kind, gentle smile takes its place on her lips. She need not explain her circumstances of allegiance to a child, but it wasn't her place to convince the kit to move on from their sudden demise. She was merely company, an anchor to keep Streamkit from being lonely here.​
