Chapter 1-my new life
[Trix's pov] "Jake hurry up or we'll be late for the choosing Ceremony. I don't know about you but want to be in a clan." I say."Fine but stop being so pushy. You know my legs area lot shorter than yours."
We walk quickly through the forest, passing trees and stumps that they know by heart. Ever since they turned two moons old their mother, red had taken them on her patrols. They have no clan but they are allowed into each clan to help but they cannot take from the fresh kill piles without permission from the clan leader. They would usually eat berries from the forest bushes nearby and occasionally a mouse they find but not much else.
When we finally get to fourtrees we walk over to the group of kits sitting near highrock. There I see one of my friends Robinkit. "Hey Robinkit!" I call over to her. She turns around and smiles. "Hey Trixie! How's it goin?" "Pretty 's funny how soon I won't be Trix anymore. I'll probably get like tabbypaw dapplepaw as my new name" "yeah and I just be plain ol' Robinpaw." I surpressed a mewl of laughter. "Oh stop that's a great name. If it wasn't yours I would want it." Then they both nearly topple over with mews of laughter.
Cedarstar says a few words about the ancestors making this a tradition and how it is important to our future yada...yada...yada...then we are sorted into our new clans. Many cats go back to their former clans but a few transfer. Robinkit transferred from windclan to thunder clan. Right after she did. Jake went to Windclan and the rest went to their clans, their new home.
After the ceremony is over, thunderclanruns towards camp,but when they are almost there they turn sharply to the left and up a the top is a sheer drop off. Suddenly I remember one time when I was younger watching cats jump from high in the sky into a small pond when it got hot then drying off on sunrocks.
Then one clear voice raises above all of the confused murmer of cats."today you will take a leap of faith , who's going first?" "Me!" I shout after only a seconds hesitation. I want to get rid of the "kittypet" nickname that people call me. I am Trix and I am a part of this clan.
I step forward proudly as I feel cats staring at me, startled. Even Robinkit looks surprised and she knows me best here. "Alright go ahead" I recognise the voice as Stonetooth ,the deputy. Then I jump.
The wind howls in my ears and I hit the water with a splash and I climb out laughing. "That was fun." I say to no one in particular. then he says "Really?I always found it quite terrifying." I turn around partially startled. "He" is a broad shouldered Tom with ruffled brown tabby fur with Gray speckles down his hips. I think he's really cute but I can't let him think in an idiot so I simply smile and say
"I'm Trix." "Ah that explains it...I've never seen you at gatherings and I never heard your name called so you must be a Rogue transfer. You'll do good here.
"What's your name?"I ask "call me Raggedpelt." He says. Raggedpelt. I like it "okay" then I hear Robinkit' s voice "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" I can't help but laugh as she scrambles out of the water faster than you can say "mouse".Then she shakes her fur dry and sits really close to me. "I can't believe you did that on your own will Trixie, you must be some kind of fearless beast under all of that fluffyness" Raggedpelt raises his eyebrow but doesn't say anything. we sit and wait for the rest of the initiates. Once everyone Is down Raggedpelt speaks up."my name is Raggedpelt. I will lead you to the camp and there you will be given your apprentice name and your of you will be my apprentice but I do not know which one of you it will be. I watched him as he said all of this and for a few seconds his gaze rested on me. I want him to be my mentor. I don't know why. He just... seems nice.
We walk into camp and soon we hear Redstar' s strong voice "let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the clanrock for a clan meeting."
Redstar was at the choosing Ceremony so he knew all of our names so he just got straight to the point. Every cat got their name changed from _kit to _paw then Red star got to me and seemed to examine me for my name. "Trix. You came from the rogues and now you wish to learn the ways of the warrior code. Is that correct?" "Yes" I say proudly "and do you undersand the weight of this responsibility?" "Yes I do" I say "well Trix, from this point onward your new name will be Brightpaw because of your bright personality." Brightpaw. I like it. Now who will be my mentor? Then Redstar speaks up again " Raggedpelt will you step forward?" He pushes way through the crowd and sits beside me. I can feel electricity through his touch. No I will not fall for my mentor. "Raggedpelt will you pass down your strength and wisdom to Brightpaw?" "I will try my best" "good." "Now Brightpaw lick Raggedpelt' s shoulder and he will become your mentor. She does that and her eyes shine with pride. She is finally part of a clan. And she wouldn't have it any other way.
