" we're going to be apprentices, we're going to be apprentices"
"so what " my brother snowkit was super excited to be an apprentice to me it just seemed like work i always see apprentices carrying moss to the elders and training i never see them have any fun so what's the point i wish i was like brownkit he gets to stay just because he can't hear i find it really unfair featherpelt can't see through one eye but still had to become a warrior .
"why don't you want to become an apprentice? ravenpaw says that being an apprentice is awesome that you get to go gathering and fight in battles and stuff i don't know what a gathering is but it's sounds really cool."
"how do you know maybe one of the warriors told him to tell us that."
"that may be true but when i become a warrior i'm going to be the best fighter and become leader of the clan and save them all from danger my mama said so" boasted tigerkit
"hey tigerkit go boast somewhere else will ya you don't know that you'll become leader you have to be deputy and to be a deputy you have to be a mentor "
" snowkit,flamekit it's time for the ceremony." great no going back than
"all cats old to enough to catch there own prey gather by the great rock"
i looked down below it was really high i just this ceremony finishes quickly
"tigerkit today until you get your warrior name you'll be known as tigerpaw your mentor will be-"
"me" the whole turned in surprise to an bright orange cat"who is that?"
"i don't know but he must be important if everyone's paying attention to him"
"ok then your mentor will be flameclaw. snowkit until you receive your warrior name you'll be known as snowpaw i'll be your mentor. flamekit until you receive your warrior name you'll be known as flamepaw your mentor will be robinstreak ." i don't care who my mentor is i just want to go already it was hard to get through the crowd with all the big cats in the way when i finally found mama she was talking with bluestripe about something she looked upset while bluestripe had a smile on her face
"mama!"
"flamepaw what are you doing here i thought you'd be with your mentor i know tigerpaw is with flameclaw learning lots about leadership" bluestripe seemed unusually happy everytime she sees me or snowpaw she always has a scowl on her face strange.
"hey mama what was bluestripe talking about she seemed really happy."
"there's something i think you should know i think you're old enough now "
"about what" we said it in unison i always knew mama was hiding something but i wonder what it is
"well before you were born there was a prophecy a pair of twin kits would defeat a great danger to the forest at the time you two and tigerpaw were the closes kits to being born you two were born first later on the same day tigerpaw was born with two sisters called willowkit and squirrelkit tigerpaw at the time was very weak no one thought he would survive not even bluestripe she refused to give him milk he tried to get to her but she would always push him away it's a miracle he survived later as you know his sisters died bluestripe then believed that he was one of the twin kits she kept telling him he was special so he would believe it. but before you've heard stories from your elders about a cat called tigerstar but not the one leading pineclan."
"yeah"
"he was evil tigerpaw looks just like him bramblestar was worried and sent a message to flameclaw which is possibly why he wanted to be his mentor but bluestripe thinks that because he's destined for greatness." i had to admit it all made sense he was really arrogant and always thought he was better than us but i'm part of something really important this changes everything if i don't work hard and become a warrior i won't save everyone but why should i i have a life of my own.
