The young tom apprentice puffed out his chest broadly in spite of his pride. His ice blue eyes gleamed with admiration towards the leader of CedarClan, AutumnStar. The leader spoke slowly, her soothing voice cooing a lullaby to the young tom. She grinned affectionately. "Do you promise to uphold the warrior code at all costs, through thick and thin, through parish?" The tom froze, choked. He cleared his throat and smiled, showing his pointy teeth. The deputy of CedarClan, RustyWhisker, grinned as if he was expecting the young warrior to decline the offer. He then stared up at AutumnStar, amusement in his blazing yellow eyes. The leader then turned from him. AlmondHaze gulped. "I do." RustyWhisker's ears perked at he then paid closer attention. "Then from this moment on, young apprentice, you shall be known as AlmondHaze, may StarClan walk by your side for eternity." The leader announced, turning with a sly grin to RustyWhisker who sat in utter shock. The low chant of his new name, AlmondHaze, made his pelt fluff with excitement. The chants grew louder and were full of congratulations towards the young warrior. He proudly lapped AutumnStar's shoulder and turned from the highrock to listen to the rest of the clan meeting. He was thrilled when almost the whole clan padded towards him to say such things as "Congratulations, AlmondHaze," and "Congrats! Let's see who you can mentor!" But he then saw RustyWhisker paying no attention to anyone saying kind things to him. A low growl escaped AlmondHaze's throat. AutumnStar silenced the chattering clan by a single flick of her dappled tail. "Now by our clans tradition," the leader started, "I must assign the new warriors a apprentice. By the power of StarClan, AlmondHaze, you will now mentor PatchPaw." AlmondHaze's pelt bristled in frustration. PatchPaw?! The most ignorant and selfish cat in CedarCan?! "Foxdung!" He almost said aloud as his neck fur bristled in anxiety. But he was even more stressed out when he realized he was the one being selfish. "I finally get an apprentice and I act like this? Foxdung with me!" His thoughts raged on. He sighed. He was so lost in thought he didn't even notice the chants, some joyful and some sympathetic towards him, and the newly assigned apprentice before him. "So? I'm waiting for my training, beetle brain!" PatchPaw spat as her tail flicked. "I'll meet you by the entrance in a bit. You better start training with me today or your pelt will be off in a second!" She growled as she padded the opposite way from him. He sighed once more. Starclan, help me!
