Chapter one
"Let all cats old enough to catch there own prey gather under Highstump for a clan meeting!"
Ricepaw woke slowly to Nightstars yowl, trying to clear her mind of sleep.
"Better get going." a voice meowed in her ear. "Hammerpaw and Thymepaw won't be pleased if you miss their warrior ceremony!" reminded her mentor Palmtail. How could she have forgotten her friend Thymepaws warrior ceremony? Ricepaw leaped out of her nest, shook moss of herself, then followed Palmtail out into the clearing.
The sun was setting as Ricepaw wove her way between cats, trying to find a place to sit. Her eye caught Eaglehearts as he motioned for her with his tail.
"I'm glad you made it, Nightstars about to start." he said, clearing a space for her. Ricepaw settled herself down, her gaze drifting around the clearing until she spotted Thymepaw, excitedly pacing around her mentor Heatherpelt. Close to Thymepaw sat Hammerpaw. His solemn expression made him seem stone- like.
"Starclan, these cats has trained to learn your noble code and I commend you to make them warriors in return. Do you both promise to protect the clan even with the cost of your life? "
"I do"replied Thymepaw and Hammerpaw.
"Then from this moment on you both will be known as Thymeheart and Hammerclaw. Fireclan honors your bravery."
"Thymeheart, Hammerclaw, Thymeheart, Hammerclaw!" Ricepaw raced over to her friend, and then skidded to a halt.Next to Hammerclaw stood four cats. Three of them were tabbies with amber eyes, but the fourth was gray and had jay blue eyes. The largest tabby had enormous sharp claws and was whispering into the new warrior's ear. Hammerclaw looked exactly like the tabbys except his smaller size and his eyes were blue, not amber.
"Thymeheart, look! Did you see those four cats?" meowed Ricepaw.
"What cats? asked Thymeheart.
"Right there! Standing next to Hammerclaw!" Ricepaw turned to show her friend the mysterious cats but they had vanished.
"Ricepaw, are you sure you didn't have too many mice for dinner?" mused Thymeheart.
"No, never mind." replied Ricepaw. "I think I'm going to get some sleep, see you after vigil." Then turned and went back to her den.
