The Truth of Firestorm
*Stormfoot's P.O.V.* I did it! I got Shadepaw as an apprentice! He's quite strong for a cat his age. He's lithe, strong, agile, and a quick thinker. He's far ahead of his siblings in his apprenticeship. He has managed to beat his 3 siblings in battle and hunting. Why, he's even managed to beat Hazeltail and Mousewhisker in battle. I've even considered giving him a more experienced mentor, like Lionblaze. Maybe I'll talk to Bramblestar about that, I don't like it, but if it's what's best for Shadepaw, I'll have to do it, and Bramblestar will have to agree.
*Bramblestar's P.O.V.* "Stormfoot, what can I do for you?" I said. "Bramblestar, it's about Shadepaw." He said. "Is there something wrong with him, Stormfoot, because if there is…" I managed to say. "No, no, nothing like that Bramblestar, it's just… I think he deserves a more experienced mentor, like Lionblaze." Stormfoot said. "Why would I do that, Stormfoot?" I said. "It's just, he's so ahead in his apprenticeship, that it seems like I can't teach him anything more, I think Lionblaze would be able to do something about that, Shadepaw seems to know even more than I do, and he's only 8 moons old." He said. "Stormfoot, you personally asked for me to give Shadepaw to you, why would I take him away from you like that?" I asked. "Bramblestar, I just told you, but it's up to you to make the decision." Stormfoot told me. "No Stormfoot, I won't do that to you." I replied. "Now Stormfoot, this matter is over, if there is nothing you can teach him… just bond with him, he is your apprentice." I said. "You know best Bramblestar, and he IS your son. Alright Bramblestar, whatever you say, bye." He said. Then he was gone.
*Shadepaw's P.O.V.* I heard that Stormfoot talked to Bramblestar about me. The truth is, I've always been a quick learner, and I've always been the strongest and most agile in my litter. My siblings just aren't very, quick, I guess you could say. I am special. I know who I am, in reality. I have always felt Starclan inside my paws. It's like they're guiding me through life. Or am I special to Starclan in a way? No, I don't want to think about it. I mean, I don't want to be different. But am I?
And the cliffhangers for this series begin. I know I said this is about Firestorm, but I think Shadepaw will have a little something special too.
