Clawfire of WindClan: As you can guess from my new screen name my latest obsession is The Warriors series. So here's a Warriors fanfic for you and also I am getting the first book of the second series soon so I have yet to finish the entire series.

I was so exited. Today I will be an apprentice. My name is Clawkit, though soon to be Clawpaw. My Clan is WindClan. Blazestar, our leader, says the words that she says at every apprentice ceremony. I reply yes when she asks me if I will uphold the rules.

"Clawpaw, your mentor will be Swiftheart." A pretty gray she-cat comes up to me.

"Well aren't you a pretty she-cat." She tells me and touches noses with me. Blazestar ends the meeting and I walk to the apprentice den after Swiftheart tells me to be ready for tomorrow.

"Humph, I don't see how your pretty, all you are is a piece of mouse dung." A voice tells me as I enter the den. I feel my fur stand on end and hiss. I turn around and see Whitepaw, another apprentice. Whitepaw is only a moon older than me so he is seven moons and I'm only six moons. I let out a snarl.

"Whitepaw!" I hear a she-voice calling behind him. I recognize the voice as Gingerpaw, Whitepaws sister.

"I'm sorry about him,what was your name again?" She asks after she sends Whitepaw off.

"Clawpaw." I answer.

"Nice name. A thorn pricked my paw so I couldn't come to the meeting,it was in very deep." Gingerpaw said.

"Oh my goodness, are you alright?" I ask.

"Yeah I'm fine, thanks. C'mon I'll show you where you can sleep." She says as she walks over to pile of fresh bedding.

"Thanks, good night." I say. Gingerpaw nods and walks off to her own bed.

Morning comes quick. Thank goodness, I could hardly wait.

"Clawpaw, are you ready?" Swiftheart calls into the den.

"Yes." I reply. I shake myself and stretch.

"First well learn how to hunt rabbit. How about you try and catch two and then come back here?" She says. I nod. I run away and pauses every few fox lengths and sniff. The last time I sniff I find a sent not quite rabbit but still has rabbit in it. And then I over a cat saying:

"Over there warriors of ShadowClan!" ShadowClan, known for their fierceness and strength. I run back to where Swiftheart is waiting.

"Clawpaw, what's wrong?" She asks looking puzzled.

"I overheard ShadowClan warriors, I smelled them in our territory, I think there planning to attack!" I told her.

"Go warn the clan, I'll stay here."

"But you might get hurt-"

"Go!" She meowed. At that instant I ran to the Clan as fast as I could.

"Clawpaw what's wrong? Wheres Swiftheart?" Gingerpaw asked. I quickly told her what had happened.

"Oh my!" She exclaimed.

"Quick tell Blazestar Whitepaw!" Telling her brother as he had heard the entire conversation.

"Come on this way!" I meowed as Gingerpaw followed me.

"Oh no." Gingerpaw meowed her face stricken with horror at the sight of Swiftheart lying on the ground slowly breathing.

"Gingerheart get her to the medicine cat!" I meowed. I ran toward camp and saw cats already fighting. I spotted Whitepaw on the ground about to have his throat ripped out.

"No!" I growled. I leaped into action heading towards Whitepaw. I lashed at the ShadowClan cat's back and the cat yowled in pain. The cat hissed and aimed for my ear but I saw it before he even moved. I sprang for his throat and pushed down, I gave him a slash of my torn sharp claws and ripped some fur along with the strike. He ran away like a kit. Whitepaw nods to me and I nod back. I jump into action, and I give quite a few cats warning bites and scratch some fur off of them. I see a cat about to bite into Blazestar's neck. I leap to her side and give the cat my most hardest of warning bites.

"Thank you." Blazestar whispers to me. I nod and I give a couple more warning bites to some cats. And finally the fighting is over. My gray fur is splattered with blood, not my own but of others.

"Is everyone alright?" I hear Blazestar ask Orangepelt, our medicine cat. I see Orangepelt nod. Orangepelt was scratched by a rat on both eyes so she cant see but she has an apprentice.

"Everyone go to your dens. Orangepelt will have you go to her den when she is ready for you." Blazestar meows. I walk to my den and then wonder about Swiftheart. When I enter the medicines cat den Swiftheart is lying on a bed of fresh bedding.

"Clawpaw!" Swiftheart meows softly.

"Swiftheart are you alright? What happened?" I ask.

"Yes I am and an owl pecked me very hard in the throat and it's bleeding,and after the owl left I smelled ShadowClan so I hid in the clearing hoping they would think I was dead. I'm sorry we couldn't go on the tour today, maybe when I'm healed?" Swiftheart answered.

"I'd like that."I say. I bid my farewells and walk off to the apprentice den. Inside I hear Gingerpaw snoring. I walk to my bed and fall asleep.
