As Forestkit steps out of the nursery she looks back to see if her sister is following her. Hurry up! Forestkit sighs as she watches Squirrelstar come out of her den, the old leader is on her 6th life and she is always grumpy since her mate Bramblestar died a couple seasons ago.
I hope we are made apprentices soon! Forestkit jumps as she hears Willowkit speak.
Ya, we are almost as big as most of the apprentices! Forestkit says excitedly. She watches as all the warriors come out of their den and look at Squirrelstar. Soon the dawn patrol comes back with a little bit of fresh kill.
Finally more fresh kill for the fresh kill pile! Forestkit hears Lionblaze say as he comes out of the elders den along with Cinderheart, they both look at her and Willowkit and signal for the two of them to come over.
I heard Squirrelstar wants to make you two apprentices. Lionblaze says as he looks at them.
Really! Willowkit says excitedly.
Yes we saw your mother talk to her. The grey elder meowed.
Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the highledge for a clan meeting! Squirrelstar calls from on top of the highledge.
Come. Forestkit s mother Leaftail says gently. Squirrelstar turns her head towards Forestkit and Willowkit and beckons them over with her tail.
Forestkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Forestpaw. Your mentor will be Blossomfall. I hope Blossomfall will pass all she knows on to you. Squirrelstar says. Forestpaw s pelt bristled with excitement.
Blossomfall. Squirrelstar says looking at the tortoiseshell and white shecat.
Blossomfall, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Hazeltail, and you have shown yourself to be brave and loyal. You will be the mentor of Forestpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her. The ginger she cat leader says. Forestpaw and Blossomfall touch noses then go towards the apprentice den.
Aldertail. Squirrelflight calls over to her son. Aldertail climbs to the highledge and stands beside the leader.
Cats of ThunderClan, as you know, I will not be around forever. So it s time I took an apprentice. I have chosen a cat who has shown to learn about different plants quickly. Your next medicine cat will be Willowpaw. Aldertail says. He looks down at her sister as she goes to stand beside the medicine cat.
Willowpaw, do you accept the post of apprentice to Alderpaw? Squirrelstar says to the light grey apprentice.
I do. Willowpaw says excitedly.
Then at the half-moon, you must travel to the Moonpool to be accepted by StarClan before the other medicine cats. Aldertail says.
The wishes of all ThunderClan go with you. Squirrelstar quickly says. Forestpaw could hardly believe it, Willowpaw will make the best medicine cat and I will be the best warrior!
The end!
