It had been a moon since her little gifts, even if the ache of betrayal still stung like a viper's bite, wrapped around her throat every time she looked at them. She wouldn't let that awful tom ruin the best things to ever come into her life. She and Nonna had been talking at length the last few days, it was coming to their selection ceremony, and today was finally that day.
Rachet was used to being the one to rifle through the black-wrapped treasure trove for the plushie collection, so she was grateful to hear back from her friend, Brick, that the search had been more fruitful than. While they were far from their days as a cadet, it was still enough to make her heart ache; her little bundles were growing so fast, toddling about and babbling all sorts.
As the days grew colder, she worried for them, but Nonna and the whole clowder were more than supportive of her strained little family, filling in where there was a painful gap that should have been pulling his weight. But these plushies would not only be their promise to become something stronger someday, but they would be a source of extra warmth, security on those coldest of days.
A shape moved at the maw of the nursery, to which Rachet purred warmly, seeing. She bowed her head and gingerly rasped at the ears of her kittens. "Come on now, you've all got company." She unfurled her tail from around them. This would be their first taste of independence, a tiny way for her to see what they all may grow into someday.
