"Sweetsky! Sweetsky, wake up! we're becoming apprentices today!" I felt a pair of paws pummeling my face and another pair pawing my tail.
"Come on, Sweetsky! You can't miss it. Please!" Acornkit's voice convinced me to get up.
"Okay, okay. I'm awake." I yawned, purring. "Oh, Dawnkit, Acornkit, I'm so proud of you!"
I watched as Dawnkit and Acornkit pelted back to the nursery to be groomed. Oh, I love them so much… I wish they were mine. Soon, their eyes were bright and their pelts were clean and shining.
"Let all cats old enough to leave the cave, gather under Rockpile for a Clan meeting!" Spottedstar yowled. I watched as all of the warriors stepped out of the warriors den. I also saw the elders pad out of their den. Leopardcloud sat at the entrace of the nursery, her kits speeding around her.
"Calm down! Dawnkit, Acornkit and Tigerkit are becoming apprentices!" Almost immediately, the kits lined up in front of her. "That's better."
"Today, I will perform my favorite ceremony. Dawnkit, Acornkit, Tigerkit, do you three promise to train hard and uphold the warrior code?" Spottedstar asked.
"I do." The three said, Dawnkit surprisingly serious.
"Sweetsky, you are ready for your first apprentice, you will mentor Dawnkit. Dawnkit, from this point forward, until you get your warrior name, your name will be Dawnpaw." Nodding excitedly, Dawnpaw padded over to me and touched noses with me and sat down.
"Leafspots, you are also ready for your first apprentice, you will mentor Tigerkit. Tigerkit, from this point forward, until you get your warrior name, your name will be Tigerpaw." Tigerpaw padded over to Leafspots, tail high.
"Butterflyheart," Are you kidding me?! She will make his life horrible, just because I saved him! Oh no! "You are also ready for your first apprentice, you will mentor Acornkit. Acornkit, from this point forward, until you get your warrior name, your name will be Acornpaw." Acornpaw padded swiftly over to Butterflyheart and eagerly touched noses with her.
"Dawnpaw! Tigerpaw! Acornpaw!" I yowled their names the loudest. After tipping my head back down from yowling, I saw that Leafspots had padded over to me.
"That's some voice you got." He mewed, purring. "I'm sorry I never hung out with you… Butterflyheart lied to me and said you were a nerd and a perfectionist… She said you were mean and that… that… that you were mean and that you were a mentor-copier." Leafspots said, looking at his paws.
"I forgive you. Seeing you two moons ago, during the fox pack attack, smile. It made me so happy. I knew that you were on my side, two moons ago." I said gratefully.
"Thank you for understanding. I missed you." He mewed.
"Me too."
"Sweetsky! Can we go see the territory now!" Dawnpaw said, bouncing around my paws.
"Yeah!" Acornpaw and Tigerpaw said in unison.
"Sorry to rain on your Gathering," DO NOT, quote LIttleheart, I wish you got her, fox-heart. "But Acornkit is checking for ticks today, because we haven't had apprentices to do it for a while." Butterflyheart said, flashing a mean look at me.
"Fine." I growled.
"I would much rather, that Acornpaw would explore the territory with his littermates, instead of searching for ticks." Spottedstar meowed, loudly.
"Oh! Yes, Spottedstar." Butterflyheart meowed, bowing her head. Grinning my grinniest grin, I looked at my sister. She replied with a glare.
"Lets go, then!" Leafspots exclaimed, suddenly happy, after seeing the whole sister-sister fiasco. Nodding, I beckoned Dawnpaw with my tail.
"Come, on." Dawnpaw sped ahead of us, going through the tunnel.
\(^o^)/ Later That Day \(^o^)/
"Sweetsky, I'm tired. Can I sleep?" Dawnpaw mewed, yawning.
"Of course! Sleep well, my apprentice." I mewed, yawning myself.
