Story:Â
They were liars!Â
Momma and Papa told her they wouldn’t leave her! They promised! But as time wore on, and her lone nest in the nursery grew colder, she grew more withdrawn.
Although she had been born as Berrykit, the cats of Thunderclan had decided to give her a cruel nickname: Brokenkit.Â
She closed herself off, sneaking out at night to a kittypet who spoke of bringing back those who are missing. The cat had been more than happy to teach her.Â
‘Brokenkit’ had adjusted to her new name. It became just another thing to her, alongside the jeers and taunts. It wasn’t like she understood them clearly anyway. She just wanted her parents. She wanted them back. The nights were cold.
She started by luring apprentices into the woods under the guise of showing them something cool. They knew she’d be an easy target, so they followed. Only to be trapped in a beartrap. She dragged them one by one to a nice clearing, drawing a shoddy circle with their blood and trying her best to remember and recite the words taught to her.Â
Nothing happened.
She sniffled and wiped at her eyes with her muddy paws. Poor Brokenkit was so tired and alone. But she returned to camp. What else could she do?
The jeers got worse and worse, until one night she couldn’t take it. She didn’t care that it was storming, or that she couldn’t properly see where she was going. She just needed to get away.
She didn’t even care when she fell into the lake that ran alongside....some border... it was hard to make sense of anything. The water burned her little lungs, but at least it was somewhat like an embrace as the water curled around her body.Â
Additional Information:
--Submission by @liberhoe​
--Her warrior name would have been Berrymask but the nickname would have evolved to Brokenheart.
--She has self-esteem issues.
--When she first met Gorseheart, she hissed. Eventually introduced herself as Brokenkit, but wouldn’t say much else. She trusted him first because he looked similar to her mom.
--SHE. DESERVED. BETTER.
