Lunarkit watched the clouds float among the sky, she wished she could just jump into one.

Suddenly, RockStar's voice interrupted her thoughts.

"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather."

Lunarkit watched as cats piled in and Foxkit beside RockStar.

"From now on, by the power of StarClan, Foxkit will be known as Foxpaw. Yowls of approvement came from he crowd. "Your mentor will be now, Waterfoot."

Foxkit, oh I mean Foxpaw, gently touched noses with Waterfoot and more yowls were heard from the crowd.

Lunarkit was watching on a nearby stone and she felt kind of jealous, she remembered in 1 week, she too, will be an apprentice.

Lunarkit spun around to the nursery and saw Foxpaw saying his goodbye's to his friends.

"Why hello, Foxpaw." Lunarkit meowed respectfully,

"Ah, Lunarkit!" Foxpaw mewed surprisingly, "When did you get here?"

"Congratulations on turning into an apprentice!" Lunarkit went on, "When do you think you'll turn into a warrior?"

"Hmmm, about 1 moon." He boasted.

Lunarkit let out a purr of amusement and licked his ear respectfully.

They both said their goodbyes and Foxpaw padded off to eat his first fresh-kill. "Heh, I bet I'll so good at being a warrior, that they'll promote me to leader!" Beautykit snorted.

Lunarkit just ignored her and went to sleep, she dreamed she was in a forest, and there was a large amount of stars. "Why, hello Lunarkit." A voice said behind her.

Lunarkit turned her head and saw a calico tom, he looked familiar. "If you are wondering who I am, you do not need to know but… I will help you on your quest…" and he faded away.

"Stop fidgeting!" Smudgekit whined, "I can't sleep!"

Lunarkit woke up and muttered, "Sorry had a dream." She then remembered the dream, what quest, who was that calico cat (calico cats are yellow-black-white) and why did he look so familiar. Smudgekit curled up again and fell back asleep.

Lunarkit rolled on her back and thought about that dream.

Days later

"All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather!" RockStar yowled.

Cats began to gather all staring at the will-be apprentices with respect.

"By the power of star-clan, Branchkit, you will be known as Branchpaw… your mentor will be Twotail… Moonkit, you will be known as Moonpaw, your mentor will be Pureheart, Beautykit, and you will be known as Beautypaw... your mentor shall be Crystaltail, Lunarkit, you will be known as Lunarpaw and your mentor will be... I, RockStar.

Suddenly the crowd grew silent, why would RockStar choose Lunarpaw to be his apprentice, there were plenty warriors!

Lunarpaw nervously touched noses with RockStar as the crowd stared in shock.

When the Naming Ceremony was over, cats crowded around Lunarpaw to ask why she got RockStar. Perhaps she threatened him, did she beg him, ask him? "I-I don't know…" stammered Lunarpaw.

After a whole riot, Lunarpaw padded over to the fresh-kill pile, the smell of the prey lingered in her nostrils.

She bend down to eat a vole, it was well… delicious! It was full of flavor and mouth watering.

"How does it taste?" a voice said behind her, it was Foxpaw. "Oh, F-Foxpaw!" Lunarpaw stammered surprisingly, "It tastes delectable!" Foxpaw nodded in agreement and ate a thrush next to Lunarpaw. Soon Branchpaw joined them and they began sharing tounges.

"The gathering is soon, who do you think is going?' Branchpaw piped in. "Hmm, well Twotail for sure and of course Grassheart…" Foxpaw murmured.

When they were done sharing their thoughts they went to their mentors. "RockStar, are you ready?" meowed Lunarpaw as she stepped in his den.

RockStar nodded, "Are you?"

Lunarpaw nodded also and finally RockStar mewed, "Today we shall explore the forest."

Lunarpaw could feel the excitement building inside of her, she never left camp before. They both padded out of camp and toward sunning rocks. "Ooh... it's so warm here!" Lunarpaw mewed.

"Yes it is… this is sunning rocks." Lunarpaw stood dazed, staring, until RockStar nudged her to follow him.

At last they arrived at Snake Rocks. Lunarpaw stepped toward the rocks but RockStar stopped her by grabbing her tail.

"Ouch! What did you do that for?" Lunarpaw muttered. "This is where adders live; one fatal bite and it could kill you!" Lunarpaw thanked RockStar for warning her and they traveled on.

Suddenly prey scent came wafting by. Lunarpaw halted to a stop and sniffed the air again. "Rabbit!" thought Lunarpaw. RockStar said under his breath so the rabbit couldn't hear "Try catching that rabbit."

Lunarpaw nodded and stalked the rabbit until she got ready to pounce and she sprang up in the air, quickly finishing it off.

"Very good." complimented RockStar, "We should head back now."

"Hey RockStar?" asked Lunarpaw.

"Yes?"

"Why did you choose me as your apprentice?"

RockStar gazed toward the sky, he answered, "I see a great future ahead of you…" Lunarpaw wrinkled her nose, "What do you mean?"

"Only time will tell…" he replied and they didn't say anything on the way back
