Snakepaw was squirming in his sleep and Tinypaw was growling. "What's going on?" I whispered to myself. Before I could do anything they both jolted awake. "Why did you do that?!" "I was testing you mousebrain! You panicked like a apprentice would, you're the leader, so act like one!" she shouted and then stormed out of the den. Snakepaw sat down calmly and washed his fur, I could tell his fur was puffy no matter how many times he washed it down. What Tinypaw said disturbed him. I sat down next to him, "What happened?" "She surprised my group with an attack and pinned me down in front of my apprentice, I was helpless..." he groaned. "That's what Tiny is good at, making us feel helpless." "This isn't funny Eagle. She's right, maybe I shouldn't be the leader of Kitclan. She's more of a leader then I'll ever be..." he sighed.
"That's where you're wrong. You're as bad as a leader as you make yourself to be. You have to believe in yourself that you're an awesome leader and then you'll become one." "You're truly right. The problem is I don't believe in myself, I suck!" "Stop it! Seriously? You're one of the greatest leaders I have ever met, other than Wildstar..." I whispered. He laughed and then got up, "I just have to think maybe during a hunting patrol." "That sounds good. I bet our mentors are wondering where we are by now." "Yeah... lets go!" he said walking outside without another word. "What did you guys sleep an extra day? Your not elders, shesh." Blackfang said. Snakepaw rolled his eyes and I laughed along with Maplefall. Blackfang left with Snakepaw on a hunting patrol. Maplefall wanted me to go on a border patrol before we went to the training hollow.
I left with Maplefall with Mistpaw and Fuzzypatch. I walked behind them thinking about Snakepaw's problem and how to fix it. Mistpaw came up next to me without saying a word. "What's wrong?" she asked after a while. "Nothing..." "Liar, I can tell your stressed." "It's something top secret, unless you want to join in..." I said hopefully. "Join in?" "Yeah, Join Kitclan." "Kitclan?" she asked curiously. "Tinypaw, Snakepaw and I have our own clan. Snakepaw's the leader and I'm the deputy. We are helping the kits of Starclan become warriors because they never had a chance. We teach them everything we learn. Snakepaw does hunting patrols because he has only learned hunting and then I do battle and Tinypaw does whatever her group wants to learn that day. Would you like to help us?" "Sounds interesting. But what happens when I become a warrior?" she asked.
"You'll have to leave Kitclan. Only kits and apprentices aloud. No warriors. Some kits said they didn't want to be warriors so they'll stay kits forever. Which is totally fine." "Alright, I'll join. I'll ask Owlpaw and Ashpaw as well." "Sounds great!" We were really far behind Maplefall and Fuzzypatch so we had to run to catch up. When we did finally caught up to them we found that they stopped because they couldn't see us anymore. "What happened to you guys?" Fuzzypatch asked. "We were talking and lost track of time." Mistpaw said honestly. We made our way along the Shadowclan border and marked our territory. After that we marked our territory over by Riverclan as well. Once again Fuzzypatch and Maplefall were in front of us. "So, what would I do?" Mistpaw asked. "You can be like Tinypaw, doing whatever the apprentice's want you to do, I guess."
"Okay, I can do that." "Awesome, I'm glad you can help." "Yeah, it sounds fun." "It will be!" I said as we ran ahead of the warriors to get to camp first. When we arrived I saw Snakepaw eating with Ashpaw. "Wanna eat with them?" Mistpaw asked. "Sure, I would love too." I grabbed a big squirrel and she grabbed a mouse. "Hey guys." I said sitting down next to Snakepaw. "Hi Eaglepaw." Ashpaw said taking a bite out of her squirrel. "How much longer until you guys are warriors?" Snakepaw asked. "Um, don't really know..." Ashpaw said. "Yeah, it all depends on our mentors. Like... Owlpaw could become a warrior before we could. I don't think Wildstar would do that but Shadowheart might think he's ready." Mistpaw explained. "Yeah, I don't think they would do that either." I said. We sat in silence for a while eating our fresh kill.
Mistpaw spoke up first, "Hey Ashpaw, what do you think about joining another clan?" "What?! Join another clan?! Are you crazy?" I started laughing and Snakepaw joined in. "Yeah... Kitclan." "Wait, what? Kitclan?" Ashpaw asked super confused. Snakepaw cut in, "Eaglepaw, Tinypaw and I made a clan in Starclan. It's called Kitclan. It's full of all of the kits in Starclan. Some of them really wanted to be warriors but there unable to, obviously." "That's not really far so, Snakepaw made Kitclan." I cut in. "Yeah... I'm the leader." he said almost like he's embarrassed. "I'm the deputy!" I said proudly. Mistpaw and Ashpaw laughed and then looked at each other. "I would love to join, what about Owlpaw?" "We still need to talk to him." "And when is it?" "Every night." Snakepaw answered. "Can't wait for night time then." Ashpaw said with a little laugh.
"What are you good at? Battle, hunting or both?" "Um, I'm good at hunting the most I think." "Then you'll be with me." He said. "Okay." "I'm going to be with Tinypaw." Mistpaw said happily "Oh that's cool." "That means that Owlpaw, if he wants to, will be with me." I said. "I'm sure he'll join, he doesn't like to be left out." Ashpaw laughed. Mistpaw laughed along, must be a silent joke just between those three. "Well goodnight guys. I'm going to go to bed early." Snakepaw said getting up. "See you soon." Ashpaw said. He left and then one by one our group left and went to bed. I went to bed last, almost everybody in the whole clan was gone. Wildstar and Shadowheart were watching from the highledge. I waved with my tail at them and walked into the apprentice. I curled up into a ball in my bed and fell asleep. "Yay! He's here!" Brownpaw, my apprentice shouted.
"Yeah sorry it took me a while. Who's ready for some battle?!" "Me!" a ton of apprentices shouted. I signaled to some of them and they followed starting a chain. I kept my ears open for Tinypaw or Snakepaw's group. I remember what happened yesterday and I hope Tinypaw doesn't come after me this time. We entered the forest silently forming a line just in case. I motioned for them to stay low as we approached two, what looked like, warriors up ahead. I didn't recognize either one of them.
"He needs to get this moving!" Said a she-cat with rustic orange fur. "Be patient Emberstrike. He knows..."said a grey almost silver furred she-cat. "But Silverstar! He's going to be coming any day now and his kits won't be able to save him." "That's not true! His kits are very powerful. Probably a lot more powerful than what you think." "Oh really?" "Yes really. I just wish Icefire would help them find their true power." "He doesn't need to. They can find it on there own, can't they?" Silverstar gave Emberstrike a look. "Yes, I suppose they can..." Silverstar said. I've heard Silverstar's name before, but I have never seen her. I've never heard of Emberstrike before, they seem to be friends. I suppose all Starclan cats are friends.
