Chapter 2
While Sunpaw, Dawnpaw, Soundpaw, and Cloudpaw was talking about their new mentors, Wavepaw padded up to the group.
"Lucky you four, especially Sunpaw and Soundpaw," Wavepaw hissed, "At least Mouseclaw is a really good mentor. She even lets me do what I want!" "Stop bragging about you having Mouseclaw as your mentor for once Wavepaw," Soundpaw said, annoyingly.
"Fine, have it your way," Wavepaw said, "But I still think that Mouseclaw is still a better mentor than all of yours."
"Be quiet, all of you!" Shattertail padded up behind them, hissing, "You all disturbed my sleep!" Mouseclaw padded up. Scar-Eye was behind her. "You're always like this Shattertail," Mouseclaw said annoyed. "Why don't you just become an elder?" Scar-Eye asked, his eyes signaling he was annoyed."I can still fight, I'm just tired today," Shattertail hissed.
"That doesn't sound true," Cloudpaw whispered. "You said it Cloudpaw," Dawnpaw whispered back.
"That's what you always say Shattertail," Mouseclaw said angrily.
"We should get out of here," Sunpaw said. The apprentices padded away quietly.
"Well, I'm going to go hunt," Wavepaw said. When Wavepaw left, Sunpaw said, "Hey, we should visit our brother and sisters and the queens at the nursery. Let's go."
The four new apprentices walked over to the nursery, finding Morningheart and Oceanflower outside the nursery with Firekit and Waterkit.
"They're doing well, right?" Cloudpaw asked his mother Oceanflower. "They're doing perfectly fine! Congratulations, all four of you, for becoming an apprentice!"
"What about Lightfeather?" Dawnpaw said sadly. "He was a coward to give in to rogues," Morningheart said, "Though Icefang doesn't think that, but I don't blame her for it. They were good friends after all."
Suddenly, Stormclaw came in. "Hello Oceanflower. Am I interrupting something?" Stormclaw asked.
"Not at all Stormclaw!" Oceanflower smiled, "Are you here for something?" "Actually, I am," Stormclaw replied, "I came to pick up Cloudpaw, because it's time for his training."
Cloudpaw looked happy. "Let's go Cloudpaw," Stormclaw said. "Bye everyone!" Cloudpaw, and then Cloudpaw followed Stormclaw out the nursery.
"Looks like we're going too," Soundpaw said. "Ok, goodbye you three," Morningheart said. "Bye!" Firekit and Waterkit said in usion.
The three apprentices left, and bumped into Snowpaw. "Oh hi Snowpaw!" Sunpaw said.
"Hi Sunpaw! Congratulations for becoming apprentices you three! Where's Cloudpaw though?" Snowpaw asked.
"He's with Stormclaw. He's already getting training!" Dawnpaw exclaimed, "Where are you going?" "I'm going to go get herbs for Icefang. She's running out of marigold and chervil," Snowpaw replied, " I should get going now. Goodbye!" "Bye Snowpaw!" Soundpaw said.
Suddenly, Stormclaw and Cloudpaw came back into camp with a grey tom of the size of a kit.
The three apprentices ran to Cloudpaw and Stormclaw. "You weren't gone for long. Who is this kit?" Dawnpaw said, looking at the grey kit.
"It's a kit we found during our way to training," Stormclaw replied, "It seems to be abandoned." Maplestar padded up with Leafwind. "You said this kit is abandoned, right Stormclaw?" Maplestar said, looking at the grey kit. "Yes he is," Stormclaw replied.
"I see, we should bring it into the clan then," Maplestar said. Maplestar and Leafwind padded up to Highledge.
"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath Highledge for a meeting!" Maplestar announced. Everyone looked up at Maplestar again.
"Stormclaw and Cloudpaw found a abandoned kit in our territory. We are letting this kit join the clan," Maplestar said, "This kit's name shall be Wolfkit!" Wolfkit stepped up and looked down at the cats proudly. "Wolfkit! Wolfkit!" Everyone chanted. "Clan dismissed!" Maplestar said.
Maplestar, Leafwind, Lightstrike and Stormclaw padded towards the four apprentices.
"It's time for your training, all of you," Leafwind said. The apprentices said bye to each other, and went with their mentors.
Maplestar and Sunpaw padded into the trees. Maplestar suddenly stopped. "Sunpaw, we're going to hunt that squirrel over there," Maplestar said quietly.
Sunpaw looked where Maplestar pointed. She saw a squirrel in the distance. "Get into a hunting crouch, like this," Maplestar whispered, and crouched down, keeping her tail straight, and quietly ran through the bushes and trees.
Sunpaw did the what she was told, making very quiet footsteps. "Now when you think the time is right, pounce at it," Maplestar whispered.
Sunpaw waited, until she thought it was the right time, and pounced at it, giving a deadly bite. "Good job Sunpaw!" Maplestar said, looking proud of her apprentice.
They continued until sunset, and they walked back. Dawnpaw, Soundpaw, and Cloudpaw were already there.
"There you are! That took a long time. You got me worried!" Soundpaw said, looking worried.
Dawnpaw and Cloudpaw giggled, knowing that Soundpaw liked Sunpaw.
"You all should get a fresh kill and then go to sleep. Remember that you have training tomorrow too," Maplestar said calmly.
Sunpaw got a vole, Dawnpaw got a squirrel, Soundpaw got a crow, and Cloudpaw got a mouse. They all ate, and then padded to the apprentice's den.
Sunpaw was the first to curl up in a pile of moss, and Soundpaw got a pile of moss next to Sunpaw. They all slept happily, with a day awaiting for them.
