A/N: I will have allegiances for the other clans in this story as well (Iceclan, Moonclan and Pineclan)! Iceclan will kind of be like Riverclan, (Except it's named for the icy lakes and rivers that surround their camp). Moonclan will be a bit like Windclan, (Because it's named for the open moorland that surrounds their territory, and there are no trees, so you can see the moon clearly). Pineclan will be like Shadowclan, execpt not as evilish. I named them that because they live in a pine forest, much like Shadowclan in the real warriors books.
Well, enjoy!
"Can't catch me!" Graykit laughed, grinning as he ran. "Of course I can!" Giggled his sister, Streamkit, as she flung one of her white paws at his tail. Graykit dodged her paw, leaping in the other direction. The two wore smiles across their faces as they played, eyes lit up with joy.
Graykit landed on the ground with a small thud, causing dust to rise from the ground. He laughed again, swiftly getting back up and running off. Streamkit stared straight ahead, a look of determination on her face. She ran as fast as she could, eyes focused on her brother. Streamkit leapt into the air, her silver fur gleaming in the sunlight. She fell down ontop of Graykit, causing the two to roll onto the ground.
"Haha!" "Ow!" "Stop that!" "Hehe!" Laughter exploded from the bundle of wrestling kits. Streamkit tried to playfully nip at Graykit's shoulder, but he used his paw to push her face away. They rolled and tumbled around on the ground until Graykit got ontop of his sister.
"I win!" He beamed proudly, his amber eyes glowing with pride. Streamkit struggled under his weight, grunting in frusteration. She groaned after awhile, and looked up at her brother. "Fine... You... you win..." She muttered the words quitely, before shoving Graykit off of her. As the two got up and began grooming their dusty fur, they heard a loud grunt.
"You two are almost six moons old, yet your still hoarsing around like newborn kits," A raspy voice growled. Graykit and Streamkit turned around to see a large, white and black furred elder.
"We were just playing! Every kit has the right to play!" Streamkit protested, her ears flattened.
"You two shouldn't be acting like kits anymore! Your almost apprentices!" The elderly tom grunted.
Streamkit opened her mouth to say something, but the tom continued.
"Pfft, I can't even imagine you two as warriors, or even apprentices. You need to grow up already!" The elder growled. Streamkit glared at him.
"What do you know, Brokenclaw?" She said in anger. Graykit sighed a little. "You brat! Learn to respect your elders, mouse-brained kit!" Brokenclaw snarled. Graykit winced. He knew that this was going to get bad if his sister continued to argue.
Streamkit opened her mouth again, but this time Graykit stopped her. "We shouldn't be arguing! Streamkit and I have to prepare for becomign apprentices tonight!" He said quickly. Brokenclaw glared at the two before turning and padding off.
Streamkit growled, and Graykit could tell she was angry. "It's okay, sis. Brokenclaw was just grumpy. But he's right; We should start to grow up a little." He said, trying to smile. Streamkit sighed. "I guess so..." She mumbled, glancing away. Graykit grined a little and nudged her playfully. "But that doesn't mean we can't still play!" He laughed. Streamkit smiled and looked at him, before tackling him to the ground.
"Hey!" Graykit giggled, batting at streamkit's whiskers. The two began to roll on the ground again, faces lit up with joy.
"All cats six moons and older, gather under the ancient oak!" Blazestar called out, his voice loud enough to alert the whole entire clan. Graykit's ears twitched and perked up as he watched many familiar cats run by. Streamkit stood beside him, a bright smile spreading across her face.
"Blazestar is going to make us apprentices!" She squealed, bouncing around with excitement. Graykit grinned as well, happiness sweping over him. Today was the day he would become more than a tiny kit. Today was the day he'd start training beside other brave warriors. Today was a very important day.
He joined Streamkit and started running towards the gathering spot. His clanmates ran beside him, some in front of him. Soon, Graykit arrived in the gathering spot. He glanced around, trying to find his sister among the sea of excited cats.
"Graykit!" A voice called out. Graykit looked around quickly to soon see a bright silver shape near him. "Silverkit!" He beamed, sprinting over towards his friend.
After pushing past a few cats, he reached the silver kit. Graykit smiled to see his other friends coming. "Mudkit, Hazelkit, Rabbitkit and Rockkit!" He said happily, watching them gather near him. "Hey Graykit!" Mudkit said with a grin. Suddenly, Streamkit emerged from the sea of waiting cats. "There you are! Didn't forget about me, did ya?" She chuckled, sitting near her brother. The group laughed, before beginning to chat.
"I can't wait to train with other warriors!" Silverkit said joyfully.
"I know! It's going to be awesome!" Graykit agreed. "I'm ready to show my skills to another warrior!"
Mudkit smiled. "Soon, before we know it, we'll all be warriors ourselves! Imagine getting our warrior names!" He almost squealed with excitement.
Hazelkit nodded. "I'm not sure if I wanna be a medicine cat, or a warrior, or maybe try to become deputy!" She said. "I'm going to be a warrior, no doubt!" Rockkit laughed.
"Attention," Blazestars's voice hushed over the crowd. Graykit stopped talking to his friends and sat down, tunring to look at his leader.
He cleared his throat. "Tonight, we are gathered to appoint some new apprentices to their mentors." Blazestar paused. Graykit stared around in wonder, thinking of who he wanted to be his mentor.
"Graykit, Mudkit, Streamkit, Silverkit, Rabbitkit, Hazelkit and Rockkit. Seven new apprentices! May I ask that they please come up to me..." Blazestar said. Graykit got to his paws, as well as the others. They all began to walk through the crowd of cats towards the root that lead up to their mighty leader, who sat on a sturdy branch.
Graykit tripped over some cats tails and paws a few times, and was glared at once or twice, but soon made it to the tree. Slowly, he climbed the large root, his friends following. At the top, Blazestar nodded for them to sit on a lower branch.
"These kits have potential, and I know it. Potential to become great warriors, with some training and work. May they honor their elders, respect the warrior code, and bring peace in the clan." Blazestar said, glancing at the kits every once in awhile.
"And that is why tonight, under the night sky, with starclan guarding and watching over us, I will make these kits apprentices." He paused for effect. "Mudkit, you are now mudpaw. Your mentor will be Leafclaw." Leafclaw, a beautiful white she-cat, came up towards her new apprentice and touched his nose with hers. "May you help turn this kit into a mighty warrior."
Leafclaw returned to the gathered cats below, and sat down with Mudkit-Now Mudpaw, at her side. "Rabbitkit, now Rabbitpaw, your mentor will be Ferntail. Help this kit learn their true destiny." Blazestar said. Ferntail came and touched noses with Rabbitpaw before taking back down with her.
"Streamkit, your now Streampaw. Your mentor will be Ashcloud. May you learn the ways of the warrior, and respect the warrior code as you train." Graykit watched his sister's eyes light up with happiness. Ashcloud bounced towards her new apprentice, beaming. Graykit smiles. Those two will get along great!
"Rockkit," Blazestar said. The dark brown kit smiled, leaping to his feet. "Your mentor will be Bluesky. May you have many adventures together." Bluesky, a she-cat with almost 'Blue' fur, jumped up to touch noses with rockkit. Blazetstar grinned. "Hazelkit, now Hazelpaw, your mentor will be Berrytail. Help guide this young kit through her apprenticeship." Berrytail came and touched noses with Hazelkit, before taking her down to the sea of cats.
"Silverkit, your mentor shall be Stormcloud." Silverkit seemed to glow with excitement as Stormcloud came and touched her nose. Graykit felt himself smile as the two returned to the crowd. But the smile quickly went away as Blazestar cleared his throat to announce who his mentor would be. Graykit gulped down a lump that swelled in his throat. Nervousness pricked along his spine, and he shifted his weight, uneasy.
"Graykit, now Graypaw..." Blazestar said, glancing down at the kit. Graykit stared out into the group of cats below him, wondering who his mentor would be. He hoped they weren't mean...
"Your mentor will be," The words seemed to come in slow-motion. Graykit gritted his teeth, and got ready to hear who his new mentor would be. "Echosky."
Graykit felt a grin stretch across his face. Echosky! Echosky was his father's good friend, and had been like an uncle to the kit. The dark grey tom seemed surprised and happy too. Graykit leapt to his feet as the cat came to touch noses with him. Graykit felt happiness flood through him as Echosky touched his nose with his, before motioning for him to follow. The new apprentice seemed to bounce alongside his mentor as they went back down towards the crowd.
"Echosky!" He whispered with excitement, sitting next to his mentor. "I know, I'm glad you're my apprentice too! But we have to listen to Blazestar now..." The tom whispered back. Graykit nodded before turning his attention back towards his leader.
"May these kits learn the warrior code and respect it as they venture through their apprenticeship. Now, you are dismissed." He concluded. And with that, the gathered cats got up and began to pad back towards their dens. Graykit, now Graypaw, smiled as Echosky nuzzles him. "See you tomorrow, new apprentice!" He chuckled, before padding off. Graypaw stared in awe as his new mentor left.
Graypaw was an apprentice now. He wasn't just a tiny kit like Brokenclaw said. He grinned to himself as he padded towards the apprentice den, his new sleeping area.
Graypaw walked into the den, to see Streampaw bouncing around. "I can't believe I'm with Ashcloud!" She squealed, running around the den. The other apprentices were sleeping, or groomed their pelts.
"I can't wait for tomorrow! We get to train with our mentors, hunt and-" Graypaw cut Streampaw off with a tired yawn. "Maybe you should get some sleep, sis, so that you will have the energy for all that!" He said with a slight grin. Streampaw stopped, and sighed. "I guess you're right..." She muttered, before curling up in the middle of the den. Graypaw chuckled a little, before curling up himself. He let out a big yawn, and let his sleepy eyes droop shut.
Tomorrow, Graypaw would train with Echosky. Tomorrow, he would begin his apprenticeship.
Graypaw sighed, and curled his legs tighter around him, going into a deep sleep.
