Icykit scuffled sbout in her nest, figeding from the warmth of five cats. She squeazed out of the bundle of cats and into the open air and sighed, her sightless eyes darting about, straining to see something, anything. Her head fell lightly on her paws and she fell back asleep. The next morning she awoke, light streaming into the den and seeping warmly into her fur. She could see blurs of different colored fur moving about through the entrance of the den. She could see! She hopped up on unsteady paws, her heart racing with excitement, and bounced over to her mother, prodding her mottled pelt with a tiny paw. "Mama!" she sqeaked out as best she could, her voice cracking with un-use from the long night.
Darkmist shifted and openeed her green eyes warily. "What is it?" she mewed slowly, then she bolted up and was alert all of a sudden.
"What's the matter? Is everything o-k-kay?" Icykit mewled, her voice returning to normal.
"You can see!!!!" Darkmist said in that caring motherly way. "I can't believe it! You can already see!!!" Darkmist started covering Icykit in licks of excitement.
Frostkit soon stirred from all the noise, opening her eyes then closing them almost immediately from the bright light. She blinked a couple of times, then they slowly opened fully and stayed open. "Mamma.." she squeaked unsteadily. "I can see you."
"I know you can sweety. I'm soo happy for you. Just wait till Blizzardkit and Frozenkit wake up. I can't wait to see their reactions!" Darkmist was purring louder than ever now, extremely happy that her kits were growing up. They'll be apprentices before I know it! the thought flached through her mind. "C'mon, let's get you kits cleaned up, you look like you just came out of a hurricane! After your brother and sister wake up I'll take you four outside to see the camp!" Darkmist mewed excitedly. "And just wait till leaf-bare when you see your first snow! I know how excited I was when I first saw it. It's white and soft, and really really cold. It's the best thing ever. I know you'll love it."
Icykit stumblde over to her brother, Frozenkit and screamed into his ear, "WAKE UP!!!", while Frostkit padded over to her sister, Blizzardkit, and shook her with her tiny paws more gently than Icykit's approach. "Ssshhhh! They're probably tierd!" Frostkit mewled to Icykit, which she returned with a glare saying, "I don't care, they can sleep later, I wanna see the camp, and I know you do too!"
