☆HISTORY --
kithood (0-6 moons) -- Gingerkit was born to a couple in DewClan along with her brother Duskkit. Their first couple moons went normally; they had a loving family and perfect kits. As they grew and their personalities began to show through, it was clear that the two siblings had a very close bond. Duskkit was proving to be a handsome young tom with polite manners to top it all off, while Gingerkit showed to be gentle like her brother, but much more meek and quiet. In fact, she hardly ever spoke at all, unless it was to her brother. At first their parents hoped she would just be a late bloomer, and would soon open up to others, or even just to her family. However, it became clear that Gingerkit was not one of many words, which unfortunately began some rumors of her being mute -- and some meaner cats would, in the future, harass her for it. But thankfully for now, Gingerkit could enjoy her brother's company and parent's support.
Apprenticeship (0-14 moons) -- Gingerkit became Gingerpaw with her brother right by her side, and the two of them both had a strong start in their apprenticeship. Duskpaw was a wonderful apprentice, excelling in both hunting and fighting, but was humble about it all, which only caused more approval in his direction. Gingerpaw, on the other hand, had a rougher start; since she hardly ever spoke in the first place, it took a long time for her and her mentor to establish a working bond. O (UNEDITED FROM HERE)
At first, Gingerpaw had no clue how to communicate to her mentor what she was feeling or thinking, which often caused frustration between the two. In fact, the only cat that Gingerpaw could communicate with was Duskpaw. But, after a while of trying to communicate every single day, Gingerpaw learned how to talk without words, and from there her training went splendidly.
However, there came a fateful day that changed so much in the siblings' lives.
Nearing the end of their training, and nearing their warrior ceremony, she and Duskpaw were sent on a final hunting assessment by themselves. They decided to stick together for the most part, only ever so often going in different directions to scout for prey nearby. However, as they went closer and closer to one of the borders Creekclan had with one of the other clans, something seemed off to them - an unfamiliar scent.
Alarmed but curious, the two apprentices tried to scout out the source, and followed it to the open base of a tree, that lead to small den. The scent became incredibly strong and vile, but the two were blinded by their own curiosity. Only when they found the large, strong form of a badger, did they realize their mistake.
The badger had scented them coming closer, and was crouched at the entrance to it's den, baring it's fangs and snarling, and Duskpaw and Gingerpaw fled in terror. The badger gave chase, hunting them down like a hound, and the two almost gave it the slip - when Duskpaw tripped and lost his footing. Gingerpaw tried to help her brother, but being in too much of an awkward position to get up quickly, and the badger nearing, he begged her to get away. She didn't want to; she didn't want to leave her beloved brother, the only cat that truly understood her, to die.
It took little persuasion as Gingerpaw realized the danger she was in, and eventually she gave him an apologetic look and turned tail to run back to camp as fast as she could. Once she reached the camp, she let out a deafening yowl, which instantly got the attention of the camp. Her look of terror was enough for her clanmates to realize that something awful was happening, and a patrol quickly got together and followed Gingerpaw back to the badger.
When they got back to the badger, the patrol instantly attacked. Gingerpaw, meanwhile, was crouching over her brother's unconscious body, quietly sobbing. Quickly realizing what she must do, she got Duskpaw on her back and raced back to the camp. Once there, she barged into the medicine cat den and put down Duskpaw. She stayed by his side the entire time, even sleeping next to him, and only left when the medicine cat ordered her to.
