"Shadowkit! Stonekit! Wakeup!"
What does she want this time, Shadowkit thought.
"Today we're going to become apprentices!"
Apprentices!? That certainly woke Shadowkit up! It was exactly 2 moons later and it was time for the three to be apprenticed.
"Yes Silverface, id like some extra feathers for my nest… NOO not that kind…," Stonekit said still asleep. "I said I didn't WANT thrush."
"C'mon Stonekit! Wakeup!"
"Huh whaa!"
"We're going to be apprenticed today!"
"What! Why didn't you wake me up sooner!"
"I tried to."
"Applekit, Stonekit! Stop fighting. Its time to get ready." Silverface said. Went outside.
It was the first moon of Greenleaf and the sun was shinning and the birds were chirping. Shadowkit got washed and went outside. Unfortunately there was no water around with the sun shinning down so furiously, so he couldn't talk to the strange cat. Then the call rang out around the clearing.
"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the highrock for a clan have three kits that have reached the age of 6 moons and are ready to become apprenticed. Stonekit, Applekit, Shadowkit, step forward please." They all stepped forward eagerly. "You have all reached the age of 6 moons, and its time for you to be apprenticed. From this moment on, until you receive your warrior names, you will all be known as Stonepaw, Applepaw, and Shadowpaw. Stonepaw, your mentor will be Heatherpelt. I hope she will pass down all she knows to you. Heatherpelt step forward. You are ready to take on an apprentice. You have receive excellent training from Sagepool,, and you have shown yourself to be kind and brave. You will be mentor of Stonepaw, and I expect you to pass down all you know to him."
Heatherpelt and stonepaw touched noses and the ceremony continued.
"Applepaw, your mentor will be Frostwhisker. I hope he will pass down all he knows to you. Frostwhisker step forward. You have received excellent training from Riverpool, and are ready to take on an apprentice. You have proven yourself to be brave, and strong and I expect you to pas all you know down to Applekit."
As his sister and her new mentor touched noses, Shadowkit tried to surpress his excitement. It was his turn next.
"Shadowpaw, your mentor will be Blazepelt.I hope he teaches you all he knows. Blazepelt You are ready to take on an apprentice. You were taught excellently by Sharptooth, and have proved your self to be brave and loyal. You will be mentor to Shadowpaw. I trust you will pass down all you know to him"
As Shadowpaw pressed his nose to Blazepelt's, he could hear the dismayed cheering from his clanmates.
"Stonepaw, Applepaw, Shadowpaw. Stonepaw, Applepaw, Shadowpaw."
As the clearing emptied out, and the cats went back to their regular routine, Blazepelt said to him, "Why don't we go and explore the territory."
Authors note. Must Read:
I would first of all like to apologize about not being able to upload as often. I have work and other stuff getting in the way, so ive gone on a writing spree for you guys. I hope these past three chapters have satisfied you for now. Also, I will be starting another warriors fanfic. This will mean that when I am writing chapters that they will be divided between the two, thus, making timing between the chapters being posted longer. On the bright side though, you'll have twice the fun! Sorry for the inconvenience, but stay tuned. See ya guys later!
