This is my second attempt at a Warriors FanFiction. My first one...not so great. I hope this one will be better. Well, read on!
ERIN HUNTER OWNS THESE BOOKS, NOT ME.
"I got you!"
Snowkit and his littermate, Frostkit, were throwing the leaves that were on the ground
next to the nursery at each other. Frostkit had just bundled a huge pile of leaves into
Snowkit's face. "Oh yeah?" said Snowkit devilishly. "Well, two can play at that game."
Snowkit turned around and launched dirt, leaves, and mulch into the air with his hind
legs. Sputtering, Frostkit fell to the ground. Snowkit bounded up to his sister. "Are you
OK?" he asked. Frostkit suddenly sprang up with a ball of leaves between her paws.
Flinging them at her brother, she laughed. Snowkit was reminiscing on those moments
from a few moons ago as he was being groomed by his mother, Pondbreeze. "So kits,
who do you think your mentors will be?" she asked between laps. "I want Stormpool to
be my mentor!" Frostkit mewed. "What about you, Snowkit?" asked Pondbreeze. "Um...I
don't really care who my mentor is, as long as it's not Longwhisker." Her mother nodded,
to Snowkit's suprise. He thought that her mother would lecture her on how you
shouldn't insult older cats, and all of that mouse-dung. Longwhisker was a newly made
warrior who thought he was StarClan's gift to she-cats. Snowkit shuddered at the thought
of trying to learn something from him. Suddenly, a yowl sounded from outside.
"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the Highrock for a Clan meeting!"
Pondbreeze jumped. She quickly smoothed down a stray tuft of hair on Frostkit's head,
then nosed the two kits out of the nursery. The young cats nervously stood, trembling, in
the middle of the gathering throng of cats, looking up at their leader, Redstar. The
deputy, Thorntail, sat with his tail tucked around his paws, and his eyes gleaming, under
the Highrock. Redstar started to speak.
"Today we have gathered for an important ceremony in a warrior's life, and the Clan's.
Frostkit, 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 Frostpaw.
Your mentor will be Eaglewing. I hope Eaglewing will pass down all she knows on to you.
Eaglewing, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You have received excellent training
from Pondbreeze, and you have shown yourself to be brave and strong. You will be the
mentor of Frostpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her. Snowkit, you are
now six moons old, and today you will be apprenticed. From this moment on, until you
recieve your warrior name, you will be called Snowpaw. Your mentor will be Skypelt.
Skypelt, you have proven yourself to be smart and courageous. You are ready to take on
an apprentice. You will be mentor to Snowpaw. I hope you can give him the training that
Darkshadow gave you." Snowpaw breathed a sigh of relief. Skypelt wasn't bad at all. She
was a nice, quiet, she-cat.
"SNOWPAW! FROSTPAW! SNOWPAW! FROSTPAW!"
Redstar jumped down from the Highrock, and the Clan rushed over to the two new
apprentices. Pondbreeze was right next to them the moment Redstart went back into his
den. "I'm so proud of you two!" she purred. "Pondbreeze, I didn't know you mentored
Eaglewing," said Frostpaw. "I was a warrior once too, you know. And I can get back to it
now! I'm going to congratulate Eaglewing before you leave to explore the territory." The
newly made apprentices managed to find their mentors. "Skypelt! Are we leaving now?
I want to leave. Can Frostpaw pleeeeeeeaaaasssse come with us? Pleeeeeeaaasssssee?"
Skypelt purred. "Of course. And we can go now, if Eaglewing and Frostpaw are ready."
She looked at Eaglewing, and the light brown she-cat nodded. And with that, the cats
slipped out of camp and to the borders.
Thank you for reading this. It would help a lot if you could leave a review, and I'll post another chapter if you guys like it! See you next time!
