"Watch for the traitor." The amber eyes said before they faded away.

Something jabbed Dirtpaw in his ribs and he woke up to see Strikeclaw looking at him.

"Did you need something Strikeclaw?" Dirtpaw yawned

"Actually yes, will you come with me? I need to talk to you."

Dirtpaw got up "Ya, but would you mind if I ask Sweethoney something first?"

Strikeclaw shook his head and exited the den. Dirtpaw quickly padded to Sweethoney's den.

He poked his head in Sweethoney's den and called her. She awoke with a jump and turned to see Dirtpaw there.

"Oh it's just you. Did you need something?"

He described his dream to the medicine cat.

"Well this could easily be talking about Flamestreak but there might be something else were overlooking. I'll talk to Sorrelstar and Whisperstar in the morning."

She curled back into her nest as Dirtpaw went to find Strikeclaw. Dirtpaw found him at a small pond hidden in very thick brambles.

"Wow it's so beautiful here." He couldn't help to mew

"I know. Me and Sorrelcloud always come here to be in peace. Dirtpaw since what happened with Flamestreak Sweethoney seems to be so secretive when I ask about her. I'm cared that something might be wrong with her. Can you ask Sweethoney about it?"

Dirtpaw suddenly felt uncomfortable with the situation.

"Uh…. Ok" He stammered.

Strikeclaw turned back to camp followed by Dirtpaw. He padded over to Sorrelcloud who was dozing in the medicine den's clearing. Before he could talk to her, a loud wail rung throughout the clearing coming from the nursery. Blossompetal popped her head out.

"Sweethoney, the kits re coming. You two, out you go." She mewed nudging Snowykit and Stormkit outside.

"But mama, we don't want to go outside."

Blossompetal huffed

"Then go ask the elders for a story."

The two kits scurried off to the elders den.

"Dirtpaw"

Dirtpaw pricked his ears at the sound of his saw Sorrelstar sitting at the camp looking straight at him. He returned her gaze.

"Time for battle training." Dirtpaw jumped up and ran out of the camp.

"Go to the river Dirtpaw." He could hear Sorrelstar tell him from somewhere behind him. When he arrived at the river more Stormclan apprentices were already there splashing in the shallow water. There was a short white tom with black stripe running down entire back, and a pale ginger she-cat with white paws, underbelly, chest and tail.

"Hi! I'm Willowpaw." The she-cat came limping over.

"And I'm Adderpaw!" The tom bounded after Willowpaw.

Sorrelstar and two other cats came walking up to the trio.

"Dirtpaw these are your new den mates, and their mentors Gorsesong, and Fernshade."

She dipped her head to each warrior in turn, and then turned to Dirtpaw.

"Spar with Adderpaw. I would like to see what you already know."

Adderpaw crouched low to the ground. Dirtpaw copied him, and then pounced. The scuffle lasted several minutes, ending with Dirtpaw on top.

"Good job Dirtpaw, but you know what you could have done?"

Later that night, they finally returned to camp. Soft mewls came from the nursery. A warrior Dirtpaw didn't know came up and gave them a report.

"Silvercloud has had her kits, Sunkit, Mothkit, Streamkit, and Whisperkit. Wolfblaze has found a scent of an unknown cat near the border and is leading patrol to track it down. Sadly Rainspeckle has left to join Starclan." The tom bowed his head in respect for the old she-cat.

"Thank you, Wildstorm." The tom padded of towards the warriors den.

"Sorrelstar a word?" Raindrop came limping from the medicine den.

"Of course." The two padded away leaving Dirtpaw alone in the clearing.

He spotted Adderpaw, Willowpaw, and Oakpaw eating in front of their den. He picked up a plump sparrow and padded over to them.

"Hi guys!"

"I swear it just leaped into my paws." Willowpaw was telling the other two a story.

"What did?" he asked.

"Willowpaw was talking about the rabbit she caught." Adderpaw mewed

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey join here beneath the leader's den for a clan meeting."

The cats of Stormclan gathered beneath the den curious of the sudden meeting.

"First I would like to announce that Raindrop wishes to step down from his position as deputy."

Murmurs of surprise rippled through the gathered cats.

"Wolfblaze shall take his place."

Wolfblaze walked forward dipping his head to Sorrelstar and taking a seat at the base of the den.

"I would also like to perform one of my favorite ceremonies. Stormkit and Snowykit step forward."

The two sisters squealed and ran to the front of the group.

"Stormkit, until you receive your warrior name you will be known as Stormpaw. Aquastream, you ready for another apprentice, teach Stormpaw everything you know."

Stormpaw and Aquastream touched noses and sat next to each other.

"Snowykit, until you receive your warrior name you will be known as Snowypaw. Nightwing, you thought Heronswoop well, teach Snowypaw everything you know."

Snowypaw and Nightwing touched noses and sat next to each other.

"This meeting is over."

The clan dispersed into their dens. The camp entrance quivered and a small tabby and a black and white tom came padding into camp.

"I heard you were looking for us. Are you like the ones across the river?"

Sorrelstar came stalking forward, claws out and fur ruffled.

"No. Why do you come to our camp?"

"Name's Moss. That's Hawk. I just want a safe place to live with my brother."

Sorrelstar stared them down for what seemed like moons.

"Fine, you may join Stormclan if you like."

Moss dipped his head

"Thank you…?"

"Sorrelstar. And this is my deputy Wolfblaze."

Wolfblaze dipped his head.

Dirtpaw fell into his nest ,vaguely aware of Snowypaw next to him, and drifted into a peaceful sleep.
