The lean she-kit glanced sadly at her mother who was eating a small rodent, ignoring her kits (again), who were sharing a small pigeon. This little kit, though, was tired of trying, and failing, at getting her mother's attention, and after one more pitiful mew that fell on deaf ears, the tiny kit turned and walked out of the nursery. Now, while some might not mind a kit leaving the nursery, if they were say, 4 moons or older . . . This little kit was barely 2 moons. Luckily, she was large for her age, large and lean, with long legs that made her look older. The Ashura kitten left the nursery with her head held high, looking as if she knew what she was doing. She was going to find something fun to do. Willowbranch had recently taught her the joy of playing, and now the kit was determined to make up some more games.
The kit hadn't yet to be stopped, and with a smile she kept going, certain others were trying to remember her name from an apprentice ceremony, or maybe assumed she was a kit who's mother was close by. None needed to know she'd left alone - and none needed to know she didn't have a name of any sort. She was just that poor, unnamed, and unloved kitten. No, wait. She did have a name, of sorts. Willowbranch gave her a nickname to call her by. Friend. It wasn't much, but it was as close as she'd ever come to having a name.
Thus, the unnamed kit smiled more proudly as she headed towards the exit of camp, long legs moving with a grace she was slowly growing into, her spotted pelt shimmering in the sunlight of Newleaf. Really, she was a pretty cat, what with her wild cat blood flowing through her veins, one eye a vibrant blue, the other a rich hazel. Her eyes mixed with her dilute tortie coat, of grey and cream, with darker rosetta rings scattered along her back and shoulders marked her as a distinct wild cat mix, tabby-like striping giving her a bengal like appearance. but with the number of rosettas, the only half-way done tabby striping, this pretty kitty was a rare example of an Ashura. In which, 75% of her blood lines was wild cat and only 25% was that of a domestic cat.
She was a rare beauty alright - which made it a shame that she was often left to feel so alone, and unwanted. Regardless, the kit was determined to make a friend today - at least one. Someone she could trust. Someone . . . else . . . who could make her feel wanted. Willowbranch was amazing, but she wanted to be a part of more than one cat's world. She wanted to be part of many. Maybe if others liked her . . . . . her momma might too.
