There was something strange about this meeting - something that had Oleanderkit's fur puffed from where he sat in the nursery, watching and waiting. Not just the announcement that Cicadabuzz was still alive - information the kitten wasn't privy to from the sheltered den (although, he would have to find the healer soon.) No, rather, it was something to do with the announcement of new apprentices. New apprentices that were just like them - and yet, different enough to be worth more.
The kitten scampers out of the nursery as the leader's meeting comes to a close, bleating out tiny 'mew's and 'squeak's into the chatter-filled air in attempt to catch his attention before he left. If Sablestar heard him, he seemed rather uninterested, turning away without even a glance in Oleanderkit's direction.
Frustrated, he stamps a paw - deciding not to give up, he follows anyway.
They were close enough in age, were they not? Was there something the litter had done wrong? Had Jadethorn been more convincing in a way Wisteriastrike was not? Or.. were they being punished? Indignation crosses Oleanderkit's dull gaze in a small momentary spark.

"Sablestar!"
Oleanderkit mews out, in reach of the leader at last as he pokes his head into the leader's den. Something akin to 'envy' festers in the back of his mouth, as if it may explode into horrible words if he weren't careful enough to keep his jaw clenched. Disappointment glitters in his eyes in the forms of half-formed tears. "Why are they apprentices?"
he pleas, taking a pathetic, half-defeated slump onto the ground. "We are weaned, too. We are eating prey."

"Is it because Goldenrodkit is sick? Because.. we aren't all sick. That's not fair."
