"Beautiful!" said Skyleaf. She was in the nursery, with her two kits, Jadekit and Woodkit. "I agree," said Foresteye, the proud father of the little kits "They're perfect! They grow up fast"
Woodkit was peering his head up, watching the apprentices train from the grounds, about seeing distance from the nursery. "Look, he's fascinated by the fighting already!" said Skyleaf.
"Let's go outside!" said Woodkit. Jadekit instantly followed him to the entrance. "The training looks fun!" said Wookit. He was already copying the stances. "Too bad, your going to have to wait about 2 more moons!" said Jadekit. Woodkit did not look pleased. "Downer. Besides, I'm already getting it!" he said. "Please, I've only seen a stance from you!" said Jadekit.
Woodkit leaped at her and knocked her down and was laughing hysterically. "You are so easy to fool! Such a mouse-brain!"he laughed more then held his head up proudly. "Get off of me!" said Jadekit. Woodkit let her go.
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey report for a clan meeting!" said Sorrelstar, obviously, the watched from the nursery. "I, Sorrelstar, leader of FireClan, I call upon our warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice," he said, looking at the cheery apprentice "She has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code and I commend her as a warrior in turn" The apprentice was named Brightpaw. She was Woodkit's favorite apprentice to see go out to train. So agile, and yet so fierce. Her mentor always went back a few steps. "Brightpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and protect and defend this clan, even at the cost of your life?" he said, with a proud look on him. " I do" said Brightpaw. "Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your new warrior name. Brightpaw, from this day forth, you will be known as Brightsparrow. StarClan honors your bravery and patience and we welcome you as a full warrior of FireClan"said Sorrelstar. "Brightsparrow! Brightsparrow! Brightsparrow!" the clan cheered. Brightsparrow's bright green eyes sparkled with happiness. She then sat vigil for the night.
Woodkit stared in amazment from outside the nursery. "Don't you want that to happen? It must feel great!" he said to his sister. "Yes, but I would be patient about it! That's the differnece between you and I!" she said narrowing her eyes. Woodkit hissed. "I can be patient! I just want to learn! Is that so bad?"
Jadekit rolled her eyes. "No, but be less excited about in. Moons of training! I'm just saying, you need the patience for later!" she said. She made her way into the den and sat there.
Woodkit rolled his eyes. I have much patience! he thought. With a slight glare on his face, he too went to his mother's nest. Although, he soon went to the entrance again, too listen to Brightsparrow and Firefangs' conversation.
"That was great! You really deserved it, nice name, too!" said Brightsparrow's best friend, Firepaw. Brightsparrow smiled. "Oh, right. The silent vigil and all that. I don't get it! You should be able to brag to your friends about it!"said Firepaw. Brightsparrow rolled her eyes and smacked Firepaw's muzzle. "I get it. You want me to shut up…hey, you knew I was annoying from the start!" said Firepaw. Brightsparrow smiled and nodded. They both proceeded to the warriors den.
"HEY! Eavesdrop much?" Jadekit said. Woodkit went back a little. "Scared ya, huh?" she said with a grin. Woodkit looked embarrassed. "You can't prove that" he said. Jadekit rolled her eyes. They were being very annoying today.
