Paws kicked her back and mewling sounded all over the nursery. Uh.. it's been so crowded since Lightfoot had her kits! "Featherkit stop kicking me!" Uh I'm gettin' outta here! The nursery was as full as it was already and Skypaw and Birdpaw were constantly visiting their younger siblings and Smallface was moving into the nursery soon! She padded out of the nursery and Airstar was talking to her father and Arrowwings. Then he leaped up to the air-rock and yowled, "All cats old enough to catch their own birds, gather beneath the air-rock for a clan meeting!" As once as everyone was gathered, he meowed, "It is time for two young cats to become apprentices! Rosekit, Morningkit step forward!" Morningkit let out a gasp and Rosekit was trembling with excitement as they stepped forward. "Rosekit, from now on until you earn your warrior name you are Rosepaw! Your mentor will be Arrowwings! Morningpaw, your mentor will be Notail!" "Rosepaw! Morningpaw!" The clan cheered. Rosekit, no Rosepaw felt like she could hear one voice above all the others besides her parents... She shook her head. I'm just hearing things.
She and Morningpaw padded into the apprentices' den with Skypaw and Birdpaw. "Here, Rosepaw you can have your nest here!" Birdpaw pointed to a spot near his nest. "Thanks!" As she settled down in her nest her back fur accidentally touched Birdpaw's. She flinched away while Birdpaw looked embarrassed. As she curled into her nest, she heard Birdpaw mutter something as she slowly drifted into sleep...
