It was a nice day...well, as nice as it could get in AshClan's ash covered territory. A silver tom with milky blue eyes trotted into camp, a very plump rabbit hanging from his jaws. Ever since the incident in which he had become blind, Stonestream had gotten used to a life of not seeing, using his paws to feel vibrations in the ground, and using his nose to scent (which along with his hearing had become stronger since said incident). Dropping the rabbit into the fresh-kill pile, Stonestream, after prodding a few pieces with his paw to find a good one, snagged a plump feeling thrush and settled not too far from the nursery entrance, quickly biting into the stomach and savoring it's delicious taste.

Shimmerkit timidly walked up to the tom."Hi,"she muttered in her usual detatached,irritated tone.She was,as always,in a bad mood.She was sick of everyone just trying to overlook her blindness.What did they think,if they didn't act like it was a problem,it would stop being one?Yeah,right.

Hearing the voice and smelling the scent of a small kit, Stonestream raised his head "Hello Shimmerkit" He mewed, recognizing the scent "What's wrong?" He could feel the irritation coming off her pelt in waves, and though somehow he knew it was pointless to ask this particular question to this particular kit, he did anyways.

"Oh the usual."she muttered,not wanting to get to detailed into conversation with the warrior.She couldn't think of anything else to say, so she sat their and stared around camp,mutely aware of Stonestream's gaze warming her fur.

"The usual huh?" Stonestream thought carefully for a moment "You can't let it get to you, cats will always treat you different because of your disability, and that's why you need to prove to them that you're just as capable as anyone else" He lightly cuffed her ear, attempting to cheer the kit up "It won't be easy, of course, and you'll have to work twice as hard as any other kit, but that's what makes them believe you can do it" Stonestream finally finished up his small-ish lecture and his bird, except for a small bit of meat he'd saved in case Shimmerkit wanted it "Want the last bite?" He asked, nosing the piece of prey.

Shimmerkit pondered his offer for a moment. It had been forever since she had had a bite of thrush,and this bite looked particularly juicy."Well...."she mewed hesitantly."No,thank you."she said at last.She couldn't accept the warrior's last bite of fresh kill.

"It's fine, I've eaten more than my share today, and nothing like a juicy thrush to lighten the spirits a bit" He said with a slight laugh in his voice. Stonestream raised his head for a moment, then turned back to Shimmerkit "Maybe...just maybe, I could persuade Winterstar to let me take you around AshClan territory, if you want to that is" He said, once again nosing the thrush closer to her while awaiting a response

As Shimmerkit timidly took the last bite,she heard the Stonestream's newest offer.She gasped."You'd really do that?"There was nothing more she wanted than,as most kits,a chance to explore the world outside of the camp.Of course,it would be a little different for her,rather than seeing she would be smelling,but it was the same general idea.She kneaded her front paws against the ground in eagerness."Come on,come on!"she sqealed,all traces of grumpiness gone."Lets go ask Winterstar!"

Stonestream laughed "Alright alright" With a grunt, the old tom pushed himself to his feet and trotted to Winterstar's den "Wait outside" He said disappearing into Winterstar's den. It was a few minutes until he came out, but when he did there was a smile on his face "Winterstar says you may go, but there are some rules" Stonestream sat down "First, you can't run off on your own, you need to stay at my side at all times, and second, I want you to think of this as a form of training, I'm going to show you had to maneuver around your disability"

"Sounds good!"she exclaimed,her eyes shinning.Her face suddenly fell."Wait,you don't think Winterstar won't make me an apprentice because of my blindness,do you?"What if her leader decided she was to useless to become a warrior apprentice?Or worse,what if Winterstar thought she was so useless that she was kicked out of the clan?She stared up at Stonestream,her face full of concern. OOC:XD I just realize that in my second post,i typed that "she sat there and STARED around camp".She's blind,so she wouldn't stare around camp,she can't see it!

Stonestream scoffed "Young one, Winterstar is not as heartless as so many make him out to be, if cats were kicked out because of their disabilities, I would have been gone moons ago" He said, swishing his tail around in the dirt "If I know Winterstar, the reason he's letting you come out of camp with me is so you can get a head start, now follow me" Stonestream stood up and headed for the camp entrance, turning back once to see if Shimmerkit was following.
OOC: do you want to continue this in another board?
