Yay! I got a review on my last chapter! :D Thanks for the review man. Reviews keep me writing.. If I don't get them, I feel like nobody's reading. Kay, so this is a timeskippy. Just thought I'd say… and R&R! :3
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey come join at the Hollow!" Silverstar's confident meow called from the curved tree that slanted sideways. The silver queen Willowsong grabbed Bluekit by the scruff.
"Mom, I'm an apprentice now. I'm too old for you to hold me by my scruff!" Bluekit grumbled, struggling to wriggle free from her mother's grasp.
"You aren't an apprentice yet. Silverstar has just called the meeting." Willowsong purred in amusement after she set the small black she-cat down.
"Well I pretty much am." Bluekit insisted. Willowsong nudged her playfully, and they padded up to the hollow. Bluekit noticed Stonesoul standing under the hollow, smiling at Bluekit. Excitement welled up inside her, and she padded up next to Stonesoul, Willowsong following behind. She couldn't believe it was her actual naming ceremony. All that waiting had finally paid off.
When all the cats had finally come out, Silverstar opened her mouth and started to speak. "Willowsong's kit has finally turned six moons. It is time she became an apprentice. Come forward, Bluekit." Bluekit hopped onto the tree next Silverstar, who turned to her. "From this day forward, until you are warrior, you will be known as Bluepaw."
Bluepaw's eyes brightened with excitement. "Darkeyes, you will train Bluepaw. I'm sure you will pass on the wisdom and courage that your mentor Wildleap passed to you."
Darkeyes smiled confidently, and gave her a happy and obedient nod. Bluepaw hopped down from the tree and touched noses with the white tom. She smiled up at him. He looked so strong and brave, and she felt a strong admiration for him.
All the warriors cheered her name as they surrounded her. "Bluepaw! Bluepaw! Bluepaw!" She was finally on the next step to becoming a warrior. I'm almost there.. she thought happily.
"Wake up, Bluepaw! Darkeyes wants you!" Shinepaw meowed urgently. Bluepaw's eyes fluttered open.
At first, she was confused at the fact that Shinepaw had called her Bluepaw instead of Bluekit. She was also confused why he was in the nursery, and telling her Darkeyes was waiting. Then she remembered her naming ceremony.
Bluepaw got to her paws and yawned. Her jaw muscles stretched out. "Thanks, Shinepaw." She meowed, her voice very tired sounding.
Bluepaw padded out of the den and saw Darkeyes washing himself. She smiled up at the white warrior. "What are we doing today, Darkeyes?" The apprentice mewed enthusiastically.
"Let's show you around GhostClan territory."
Bluepaw was on her first solo mission. She heard a mouse scampering through the brush. Her ears pricked, and she licked her lips in satisfaction. Her body instinctively got into a hunting crouch, her eyes locked on the prey.
She sprung into action, and grabbed the mouse in her unsheathed claws. Right before she finished it off, her smelled the scent of another cat, close enough to be watching her. The mouse whimpered and rushed out of her claws before the young she-cat came to.
Bluepaw noticed two yellow eyes staring at her through a bush. "Show yourself!" She hissed, staring into the big round eyes. A shadowy form leaped onto Bluepaw and she yowled out in fear. The tom pinned her to the ground violently, with a smirk on his face.
