Thanks for reading and please review. :)
"Patchkit, Featherkit, and Whitekit. Please step forward." Bramblestar called from his spot on the Highledge.
Featherkit could barely hide her excitement as she took a step forward with her littermates. She was a fluffy white she-cat with a gray tail tip and amber eyes. On her right Patchkit -a small white she-cat woth gray patches and bright blue eyes- stood with her tail lashing back and forth excitedly. On her right stood her brother, Whitekit -he is a large white tom with gray socks on his feet and bright blue eyes-. He stood tall and proud.
"You have all reached the age of six moons and are ready to be apprentices." Bramblestar mewed. "From now on you shall be known as Patchpaw, Featherpaw, and Whitepaw." He paused, letting his gaze search the clearing. "Cloudtail, you to take on another apprentice. You shall mentor Patchpaw. Seedfur, you have gotten good training from your mentor and have proved vary loyal, you shall mentor Featherpaw. Berrynose, uou are ready to take on an apprentice. You have proven to be a good warrior and you shall mentor Whitepaw."
Featherpaw bounced forward and touched noses excitedly with Seedfur. "I will be the best apprentice!" Featherpaw purred. Seedfur was good friends with her mother so she alrrady liked Seedfur from the beginning. Seedfur was always nice to the kits.
"I'm sure you will." Seedfur purred back. "Want to go out of camp?" She asked.
"Yea!" Featherpaw yelled, eyes bright and happy.
"Great." Seedfur purred, amusement in her eyes. "Lets go." She led the way out of the camp. Featherpaw jumped up and ran after her.
Featherpaw followed her mentor as she led the way twords the border.
"You should know where the borders are so that you never stray across them." Seedrur explained as she walked on.
Featherpaw ran along side her mentor as they rounded a bush.
"Stop." Seedfur commanded.
Featherpaw instantly stopped mid step then asked. "Why?"
"What do you smell?" Seedfur asked, not answering the question.
Featherpaw sniffed the air. There was a disgusting sent in the air. Featherpaw glanced around for the cause of the smell. "What is that? It smells horibal!" She exclaimed.
"That would be Shadowclan." Seedfur mewed, amusement in her eyes.
"We heard that." A voice behind Featherpaw made her jump. She turned to see a patrole of four Shadowclan cats.
Seedfur dipped her head respectfully. "Hello Rowanclaw, Tawnypelt, Redwillow, and Treefur."
Featherpaw looked at the larger cats. That must be the deputy. Featherpaw thought as she looked at the ginger tom in the lead of the patrole. She remembered that Rowanclaw was the deputy from what the older apprentices had told her.
Behind the deputy stood a torti-shelled she-cat with green eyes, a mottled brown and ginger tom, and a brown tabby tom.
"Who is this?" The deputy asked, eyes on Featherpaw.
"That is Featherpaw. One of Mossflight's kits." Seedfur answered.
"Hi." Featherpaw mewed uncomfortablely.
Rowanclaw mewed "Well, we must be moving on. Good luck to you both." He turned and padded along the border with the other three cats following.
Seedfur mewed "Come on, this way." She turned and padded the other way along the border, away from the lake.
"Okay." Featherpaw nodded and then ran after her. They walked along the Shadowclan border untill they came to the border that does not touch a clan.
"This is the border that we must protect from non-clan cats." Seedfur told Featherpaw.
Featherpaw nodded, listening as she silently followed.
"Featherpaw, stay behind me. There is a cat up here." Seedfur whispered to Featherpaw after a minute of silence.
Featherpaw nodded and followed behind her new mentor as Seedfur made her way around a large bush. Featherpaw peekee around Seedfur when her mentor stopped walking.
Featherpaw saw a small, skinny light gray kit with blue eyes. He sat right inside the border, looking around the territory with his large eyes. On his fur where many scratches and bruises.
Seedfur started to walk closer. "Who are you?" She asked the kit.
Featherpaw stayed by the bush as she watched them.
"I am Drift." The kit mewed, not scared by Seedfur in anyway. When Featherpaw looked closer she saw that he was her age, just barely six moons.
"Where are your parents?" Seedfur asked softly to the kit.
"Not here." Drift answered, looking up at her with large, curious blue eyes.
"How did you get hurt?" Seedfur asked, sniffing at him slightly.
Drift held still as she sniffed at him. "I don't want to talk about it."
"Okay then. When was the last time you ate?" Seedfur asked yet another question.
Drift seemed to think about that. "Two days?" He answered but it came out as a question.
"Would you like something to eat? I can also fix your wounds." Seedfur offered in a soft voice that hinted her worry for the little cat.
"Yes." Drift paused "Please."
"Okay then." Seedfur stood up straiter. "Featherpaw come out. We are going back to camp."
Featherpaw came out from behind the bush.
"Lets go." Seedfur turned and left, leaving Featherpaw and Drift to follow.
