Chapter 4:

Violetkit stared at her littermate as she became an apprentice. She was, of course, the last cat to be apprenticed. Violetkit was the last for everything. She was last to get fresh-kill, she was last to have her mother's affection, she was the last kit born. She was last for everything except when it came to her fatger, Gingerfrost. Violetkit had the same attitude and personality as Gingerfrost. Except that Violetkit loved to play with younger kits.

"Violetkit, come forward." The clan leader, Rainstar meowed. Violetkit stepped forward. "Violetkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, you will be known as Violetpaw. Your mentor will be Treetwig. I hope Treetwig will pass down all he knows to you. Come forward Treetwig." Rainstar meowed and Treetwig padded forward. "Treetwig, you are ready to take on an apprentice. I have given you excellent training and you have shown yourself to be kind and loyal. You will be the mentor of Violetpaw and I expect you to pass down all you know to Violetpaw." Violetpaw reluctantly touched noses with Treetwig. She hated Treetwig. He was her mother's new mate and he adored Mothpaw. Violetpaw quickly drew away from Treetwig. She almost growled at him but stopped herself. He must have seen the hatred in her eyes because there was sadness in his eyes. Violetpaw almost felt sorry for him. Almost.

Violetpaw was in the apprentices' den grooming herself after a long day of exploring the territory. Mothpaw came in and sat next to Violetpaw. Violetpaw hissed at her and Mothpaw quickly drew away to the other side of the den, glaring at Violetpaw. In a few moments, Mothpaw was asleep. Violetpaw decieded to see the kits. She padded out of the den and to the nursery where Flamekit and Fluffkit were attacking each other. Shadowkit was in the corner of the nursery watching them. Violetpaw felt a pang of sympathy for the young kit. He felt like an outcast among his littermates because of his black pelt. Violetpaw padded over to him.

"Hi Shadowkit." Violetpaw meowed.

"Hello." Shadowkit answered quietly. The three kits would be made apprentices in a few days. They were born only a few days after Mothpaw and Violetpaw.

"How are you?" Violetpaw asked Shadowkit and he only shrugged.

"Violetpaw!" Violetpaw heard her name being called and padded out of the den, purring when she passed Flamekit and Fluffkit stalking a leaf. She looked around for the cat who called her name and to her dismay it was Treetwig. Violetpaw growled and slowly padded toward him, glaring at him.

"What do you want?" Violetpaw asked him.

"We've been chosen for a night patrol." Treetwig informed her.

Great. Violetpaw thought. Mothpaw gets to sleep and I get to go on a night patrol. Violetpaw followed Treetwig out of camp.

I'm getting toward the end of needing cats for this story. Thanks to Animal4life for giving me OCs. And thanks to Echotail for giving me a huge number of 20 OCs. Yes, I counted them. I still need elders and I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
