This is my new warriors fanfic. It has my own characters. But i really dont wanna make an allegance thing. I mean that would take to long and you guys dont really read them. Well i dont. i usually just go right to the actual chapters and go back to the allegance if i need to see something. Anyway. So yeah you guys just gotta figure it out along the way just like me. :)
Runningpaw blinked open her dark blue eyes and streached, yawning. She looked around the den and found the other apprentices still sleeping. Lazy, thought Runningpaw. She padded out of the apprentice den and into the clearing of Moonclan camp. She watched as a couple of the kits wrestle and play with eachother by the entrance of the nursery. She felt a pang of sadness hit her. She grew up by herself. She had no siblings and there were no other kits in the nursery while she was growing up. She was used be being alone. Her own parents hardly even talk to her.
"Runningpaw you're up early," said Dawnpool.
Runningpaw looked up at her mentor. "Of course. Are we going to do some training today?"
Dawnpool let out a mrrow of amusement at her apprentice's eagerness. "Of course. I'll go get Dewstep and Rainpaw to come with us," with that Dawnpool set off to the warriors den.
Minutes later during which Runningpaw groomed her tortoiseshell pelt, Dawnpool arrived with Dewstep and her freshly awoke apprentice Rainpaw. "So what are we doing today," asked Rainpaw.
"We're gonna do some hunting," said Dewstep. Runningpaw was okay with going hunting but battle training and fighting was her favorite. "Come on," said Dewstep as she and Dawnpool raced out into the forest.
Runningpaw and Rainpaw stayed at the same pace as eachother and followed quickly behind their mentors. Rainpaw, flicked his amber eyes on her. "So anything new?"
"Not really. Same old same old," said Runningpaw. Rainpaw was her best friend. Even though he was older than her he was friendly to her when she first became an apprentice. Rainpaw had two sisters but still was best friends with me. Our relationship has never been romantic. Other cats have thought that we did but we were just friends. I've never had any feelings for him and she was sure that he didn't have any for her.
Soon they reached their mentors and hunted a bit. Dewstep caught a couple of squirrels. Dawnpool caught a magpie and a mouse. Runningpaw caught two mouses and Rainpaw caught a couple of sparrows. They brought them back to camp and put them in the fresh-kill pile. Runningpaw and Rainpaw took some of the prey they caught to the elders and queens.
When they were finished Rainpaw and Runningpaw each picked a piece of prey from the pile and sat down next to eachother. "Do you think you'll be chosen to go to the gathering tomorrow," asked Runningpaw
"I'm not sure, but i hope so," sad Rainpaw excitedly. "It might be my last gathering as an apprentice."
Runningpaw smlied at Rainpaw's excitment and laughed. "I hope so too. Well thats exciting." Runningpaw couldn't help but feel some sadness because of Rainpaw's statement about becoming a warrior. That means that they wouldn't be able to talk or hang out anymore.
Rainpaw knew that she was sad because he knew her so well. "Don't worry. We're best friends forever. Nothing can change that. You'll be on your way to being a warrior soon after i already am. You're not that much younger than me." Rainpaw licked her shoulder soothingly.
Runningpaw smiled,"You always know how to make me feel better."
~That Night~
Runningpaw woke up curled up in her nest. She wasn't quite sure why she had woken up. But now that she was she wasn't going to fall asleep anytime soon. Runningpaw slowly got up tired. She padded out into the clearing and went over by Shrewtail who was guarding the entrance.
"Couldn't sleep," he asked
Runningpaw nodded. "Yeah. Can I go for a walk?"
Shrewtail nodded. "Yeah but just don't get lost and don't stay out that long."
Runningpaw nodded and gave her thanks then headed out into the forest. She wandered around gazing at the full moon. It was beautiful at this time of night. She walked close by the Cloudclan boarder but not crossing it. She continued walking along the boarder not really patroling it when she heard the crack of a twig.
She stopped dead and looked around not really able to see anything. "Who's there?"
So did you like it? I know cats cant smile. But maybe they can laugh but i dont know. Don't flame me for it. Review! hehe!
