Description:
Hollykit best resembles her oldest sister, Cloverpaw. In fact, the young kit is almost like a miniature Cloverpaw in a way. Looking similar to Cloverpaw means her fur was inherited from her mother, Lightstep. Hollykit has a very dark orange colored pelt, dark ginger to put it simply. All over her pelt an even darker reddish color can be found in splotches form. The majority of these splotches are found closer to her tail, toward the back of her body. Hollykit has beautiful light green eyes with a darker emerald color flecks.
She does have one little part of coloring that she inherited from her father. Both of Hollykit’s back paws have just a little touch of light brown toward her claws. The further away you get from Hollykit, the less this feature can be noticed. In other words, up close her back paws look brown, but further away they look just like any other part of her body, just a little lighter orange.
When it comes to her fur it is a little shorter than average. It isn’t long at all, and probably never will grow out much longer. She is starting to outgrow the kit fur, and though she still has some wispy little kit fur, most of it she has grown out of. Hollykit has very short legs, which is probably her greatest weakness. It does not come in handy when swimming or running, so it will be a little more difficult for her to keep up with others. Size-wise, Hollykit is very small. She was born the runt of her litter, and being born earlier than what was supposed to be did not help either. This is something Hollykit will probably never outgrow. She will most likely be small framed and just small in general for her entire life.
Personality:
Hollykit is a kit that is beginning to develop an attitude, and not the kind anyone wants to be near. This could possibly be due to her favorite new idol…Tanglefang. The little red kit thinks that Tanglefang is the most awesome cat on the planet. Why and how she admires this awful cat is a mystery, and could possibly become not so much of a good idea in the near future. Could her reasoning possibly be that Tanglefang treats her like she treats everyone else? She just wants to be treated normally, and feels like she is treated just like any other cat when it comes to Tanglefang. The warrior doesn’t care that she is small and frail, she knows how to push, which Hollykit really admires.
Hollykit refuses to speak to anyone other than Skunk-kit, and even then they have to be alone, or out of earshot of other cats. Who knows what this kit is thinking. She sometimes slips up and talks in front of cats, but covers it up, acting as if it didn’t happen and make others think they were hearing things.
She’s not one that likes the spotlight or likes attention. She tries to stay out of everyone’s way and stay under the radar. Hollykit also feels quite lonely at times. All she has left from her family is Ivypaw, who is usually busy. She never knew her mother or father, and really took care of herself mostly.
History:
Hollykit was born in the second litter to Lightstep and Grasshopper. She was the youngest of the litter of five, and the smallest. The two cats were thrilled that they would be expecting another litter of kits, and their first litter would be made apprentices a moon before the kits would be born. Time passed by and soon Lightstep and Grasshopper’s first litter of kits were made into apprentices, Leafpaw and Cloverpaw being warrior apprentices and their youngest of that litter, Ivypaw, becoming the apprentice to the medicine cat.
Life was perfect, or so they thought. The oldest of the litter, Leafpaw, was out with Grasshopper training one day, and rogues walked into the territory. The two were killed in the grueling battle, before help could arrive. The news was broken to Lightstep, heavy with unborn kits, and nothing could have stopped the shock. Not only did she lose her mate, but her son also. The shock was too much to bear and Lightstep went into labor with the kits, a half moon before they were to be born. The queen gave birth to a litter of five kits, three toms and two she-kits. The oldest, Grasskit, she named after his father, since he looked so much like her recently deceased mate. The second kit, Shinekit, was named by Cloverpaw. Third came Poppykit, named after her deceased son from her previous litter. Fourth was Dirtkit, named by Ivypaw, thinking he would be a tough as dirt. The fifth and final kit was given the name Hollykit, named after Lightstep’s best friend. Shortly after they were named and began nursing, nothing could be done to stop the blood loss of Lightstep. She followed suit after her mate and son, and joined the ranks of StarClan just hours after the kits birth.
Luckily there was another queen in the nursery and she was able to nurse the five unlucky kits. None of them were expected to survive, so it came as no surprise when two of the kits died after only a few days. Grasskit, Poppykit, and Hollykit were left and how they survived this far was a mystery. These really were tough little kits. The three kits were now a moon old, who would have thought these three would make it? Luck was not with the remaining toms of the litter. Both Grasskit and Poppykit fell ill, and were not able to recover. Hollykit was officially the last remaining kit of her litter.
Time passed, and Hollykit was in and out of the medicine cat’s den. Though she was small, the kit prevailed. It took her until her third moon to open her eyes and see the world for the first time, and now that she has opened them it’s hard to get her to sleep, she wants to see everything. She still will only speak to Skunk-kit and to other cats it seems like she is a mute.
At the age of four moons she lost her sister, Cloverpaw, to once again the river. Now all she has left is Ivypaw, and Hollykit is still shaken up from the loss of Cloverpaw. Hollykit strives to be a warrior, something none of her siblings have been able to achieve.
