Thistleclaw was padding across Thunderpath thinking to himself Bluestar doesn't deserve to be the next leader, it should have been me that Sunstar chose! He peered over and saw a kittypet staring at him. "What are you staring at?"

"You." The young cat replied, "Are you a warrior?"

"Yes, the best of the best…" An idea popped into Thistleclaw's head. "Hey, how would you like to be a part of a clan?"

The kittypet's eyes gleamed. "Do you mean that? You could make me a warrior?"

"Of course I could, you could be a part of FireClan, the most powerful clan that there is. You and I would be a great team, destroying the wrongful ones."

"Alright! That sounds great!" The kittypet started to jump up and down.

"Ok, we must start your training immediately. I will call you Nightpaw, because of your jet black pelt. You will be my apprentice until I think you are ready to be a warrior."

"Ok! Nightpaw, I think it kind of suits me… What's your name?"

"I am Thistlestar."
