xXWingedPawsXx: Thanks for the reviews! I will try not to reveal the plot, and that's not how the prophecy works. Just you wait... The warrior ceremony didn't end right there, I just thought that that was a good ending point.
AshfurTheBroken: Sorry for making you feel overwhelmed. XD But really, I'm sorry.
shyannada141: Thanks! :3
Thunderandshadowcats: Do you want him to be part of Thunderclan? And, yes, Tigerstar is really dead. Once cats are forgotten, or they get killed again, they fade away. FOREVER. But then they get reincarnated into a living cat. Also, Volekit is really that dumb and gullible.
Volekit's POV
Volekit was now six moons old. He would be becoming an apprentice soon. Volekit couldn't wait. Lightkit couldn't wait either. Who is going to be my mentor? Volekit wanted an experienced mentor, like Brackenfur, or Cloudtail. What he didn't want was a fresh, new warrior, who had never had an apprentice before. He wanted to make sure he could learn from the best, and only the best. Mapleshade had already been training him how to hunt, and fight.
Volekit sat with Lightkit, talking about who they wanted their mentors to be.
"I want Lionblaze to be my mentor," Lightkit mewed. "He's one of the best cats ever!" Volekit jumped up.
"No, Brackenfur is!" Lightkit narrowed her eyes, and lunged at him.
"Lionblaze is the best!" Lightkit had Volekit pinned. She had grown in the past moons, but so had he.
"Brackenfur is the best!" Volekit said, flipping her over, and switching their places.
"Lionblaze!"
"Brackenfur!"
"Lionblaze!"
"Brackenfur!"
"Brackenfur!" Lightkit mewed back.
"Lionblaze!" Lightkit's nostril's flared.
"Fine. Lionblaze is the best mentor. I win!" Volekit looked startled, then angry.
"No you don't!"
"Yes I do!"
"No!"
"Yes!
"No!"
"Y-" Volekit was cut off when Lionblaze and Brackenfur strolled up to them.
"Now," Lionblaze began after sitting down, "What seems to be the problem?"
Volekit released Lightkit and both kits sat up. Lightkit was the first to speak.
"We were arguing over who was the better mentor." "I thought it was you, Lionblaze, but Volekit said Brackenfur was better."
Brackenfur and Lionblaze both looked startled, then looked at each other in amusement.
"Well," Brackenfur spoke this time, "Both of us are good mentors, but each of us has our own virtues."
"I have the ability to not get harmed in battle," Lionblaze told the kits, "And Brackenfur is and experianced and clever warrior."
"So you see," Lionblaze started, "There is no best mentor or cat." Brackenfur finished.
Volekit and Lightkit shrugged. Volekit was about to say something when Squirrelflight came rushing over.
"Here you are!" She exclaimed. "I've been looking all over for you!" Volekit turned his back, even though he knew he would earn stares from Brackenfur and Lionblaze. He hated Squirrelflight even more now.
"Come here!" "Your apprentice ceremony is soon!" Volekit could hear her fussing over Lightkit, but he knew that she wasn't fighting it. For some reason, Lightkit liked being groomed.
He heard, then scented Bramblestar.
"Come on Volekit." Bramblestar mewed. "I want my son looking best for the clan." Volekit sighed and padded over to Bramblestar. Bramblestar started licking his pelt until it was thoroughly groomed. Then Bramblestar padded over and up Highledge.
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, come here below Highledge to hear what I have to say!" Bramblestar's yowl echoed around the hollow.
Volekit was suddenly filled with excitement. I'm going to be and apprentice! Squirrelflight ushered them below Highledge. He glared at her. She glared back.
Volekit was startled but before he had time to worry, he realized the whole clan had settled down.
"It is now the time to make apprentices, so we can grow stronger!" Bramblestar glowed with pride.
"Lightkit step forth." Bramblestar jumped down, and landed before Lightkit.
"Lightkit, from this day forth, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Lightpaw." Bramblestar looked at the crowd of cats.
"Lionblaze, it is time for you to have another apprentice," "Thunderclan admires your strength and bravery, you will mentor Lightpaw." Lightpaw's eyes brightened when she heard Lionblaze, then went to touch noses with him.
"Volekit," Volekit stepped forward. "From this day until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Volepaw." Bramblestar paused. Please be Brackenfur. Volepaw thought.
"Graystripe," Fox-dung "You are a experianced and respected warrior. You will mentor Volepaw." Graystripe nodded, and Volepaw went to touch noses with him.
At least I didn't get Molewhisker.
After the meeting had ended, Volepaw looked to Graystripe.
"What are we going to do first?" he asked.
The gray warrior looked at the entrance. "I was thinking of a tour of the territory."
Graystripe had taken Volepaw around the territory with Lightpaw. During the trip Volepaw had scented a badger, and Graystripe was telling Bramblestar now, while he talked with Lightpaw.
Lionblaze walked over to the two apprentices. "You to have had a long day," he mewed. "Go get some fresh-kill and get some sleep." Volepaw and Lightpaw nodded.
Lightpaw went and grabbed a thrush, which they shared. Volepaw curled up in his new nest, and fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was in Starclan, with Mapleshade in front of him.
He jumped up. "Mapleshade! I'm an apprentice now!" Mapleshade nodded, purring.
"Yes," the tortoiseshell she-cat told him, "I would like you to meet a close friend of mine." Volepaw tilted his head, and then a cat appeared out of the bushes.
"This," Mapleshade gestured with her tail, "Is Thistleclaw."
"What did he do?" Volepaw asked. He was getting to meet two Starclan cats!
"I was Tigerstar's mentor." Thistleclaw responded.
"Really?" Volepaw asked.
"Yes." Thistleclaw nodded, and then continued. "I, along with Mapleshade, are going to train you so you can be the best warrior you can be." Volepaw about burst with excitement. I get three mentors! And one mentored Tigerstar!
"When do we begin?" he asked. Mapleshade crouched down.
"Now."
