How Cloudtail Got His Warrior Name
I hope you enjoy this story very much.
Author's Note: I would like to say thank you to Kendall'sgirl234 for this idea of writing a story about Cloudtail. Please review and thanks to those who've encouraged me to write more ^^. If you have any suggestions about who I can write (as in a cat) for my next chapter, or any of my future chapters, don't hesitate to suggest one {I don't bite! Like, seriously}. Plus, I've actually written my story in a different way than the other chapters, but that's because I felt like writing like this. Don't worry, if you don't' like the writing like this, I'm only writing like this for this chapter, I promise. It's still got the same humour in it and stuff. Anyways, enjoy!~
One day, Cloudpaw was walking alone in the forest, looking for prey (like a normal apprentice would do). Suddenly, he heard a loud squawking of an eagle and looked up to see it fly right across the sky with giant wings. This gave Cloudpaw the thought, 'Maybe I should start practising how to fly!' Of course, no cat can fly, but because Cloudpaw was stupid enough to believe that thought, this is how he got his warrior name.
…
"WHAT?" Fireheart almost choked with laughter. "Fly? You can't fly! No cat can, and never will! Even StarClan cats can't fly!" {Author's Note: Actually, they can, with stars}
Cloudpaw snorted. "Maybe I'm a special cat and can fly," he meowed stubbornly. "I bet you I'll fly right across the sky like that eagle I saw swooping up and down and soaring around in circles. Then how did I get the name Cloudkit when I was born? Maybe because I could fly up into the clouds. Then I'd be very well-known to all the cats!" Fireheart had no idea how that stupid idea of his got into his apprentice's head, so he grumbled, "Fine. But if you can't fly and crash to the ground and break your bones, don't blame me, you hear?"
"I won't," Cloudpaw promised, while grinning. Duh, he was going to, but Fireheart didn't even notice the evil smile, instead nodding like what a normal warrior would and padded away to who-knows-where. Cloudpaw quickly exited the camp and made his way slowly to the border between ShadowClan and ThunderClan. There were really tall pine trees growing in ShadowClan, and Cloudpaw thought that he could start there to begin his 'fly training'. After looking left and right, Cloudpaw scampered across the Thunderpath and quickly attempted to climb a pine tree, in case there were ShadowClan cats lurking about. According to one of the elders who went by the name of Half-tail, the ShadowClan cats eat lizards and frogs {And this is true as well}! Sure enough, there was a faint yowl in the distance, and soon the sunhigh patrol appeared, scenting the ground with their noses.
"I can smell a ThunderClan cat," a warrior growled, looking up at the pine tree that Cloudpaw was hiding in. "Aha!"
"WAAAIT!" Cloudpaw screeched before any cat could make a move. "I'm innocent! I'm just trying to prove to Fireheart that I can fly and will fly like an eagle I saw swooping up and down and soaring around in circles {You should've noticed that Cloudpaw practically recited exactly what he said to Fireheart}! Please don't hurt me! Just let me try to fly!"
In the end, none of the ShadowClan cats hurt Cloudpaw, but they couldn't anyway, for they were laughing their heads off {Not literally, but I wish they did, because that would've been more funny…right?} and rolling on the floor meowing {Now known as rofm, so keep that in mind}. Cloudpaw sighed at their immaturity {But he was being immature too} and continued to climb up the pine tree. After what seemed like billions of seasons, Cloudpaw made it to the top and he gasped at the sight. It was so high up and Cloudpaw felt as though he was flying. Quickly he hollered, "GERONIMOOO!" and leaped off the tree.
"I'm FLYING!" he yowled to the ShadowClan cats below, who were still rofming. "I'm seriously and actually FLYING!" The ShadowClan cats looked up and laughed even harder. Cloudpaw didn't understand why they were laughing, and then looked down to see that he was falling! The ShadowClan cats at the bottom seemed to be growing bigger (because they were ant-sized when Cloudpaw was up in the pine tree) and then there was this loud "BOOM!" and Cloudpaw was on the floor, dazed.
…
Cloudpaw opened his eyes to see that every cat in ThunderClan was staring at him with shocked eyes. He looked at Fireheart and Bluestar. They looked shocked too. Cloudpaw had no idea what in the world they were shocked about. "What's so surprising?" he asked. "Was it because I didn't fly after all?"
"What do you mean?" Bluestar asked. It turned out that they weren't relieved nor un-relieved at the sight of Cloudpaw regaining consciousness. "We're shocked because you've got a cloud on your tail."
Cloudpaw looked at his tail. Sure enough, there was a tuft of cloud on it. It felt warm and wet. He grimaced. "Eww! It feels like pee!"
"Fireheart was telling me about how well you've been doing in your training," Bluestar continued on. "And both Ashpaw and Fernpaw will be announced warriors today too!"
Ashpaw and Fernpaw gasped with delight. "For what reason?" Ashpaw asked eagerly. They must have done some good deed to become warrior, because they were still too young to be named a warrior yet.
"No reason," Bluestar replied cheerfully, disappointing the two apprentices as she added, "because I just feel like it. If you don't like the idea, then too bad." She turned to Cloudpaw. "Your warrior name shall be—"
"That's not the words!" Fireheart blurted out. "Aren't you meant to say something like—"
"You're such a goody goody, Fireheart," Bluestar commented, shaking her head with disapproval. Fireheart flushed with embarrassment. "Because you have been such a goody goody, you will now be known as Goodygoody."
"What kind of a fricking name is that?" the newly named Goodygoody hissed with anger. "That's the second time that the author has changed my name; Skywatcher {and Skywatcher Number Two…}…and now Goodygoody! Does the author hate me or something?"
{Actually, I do, because you're my least favourite character – sorry to all Firepaw/heart/star fans – and the reason I don't like you is because you're a goody goody, so I thought that the name goody goody would be pretty good for you, as it suits you very well.}
"Anyways," Bluestar was getting impatient now. "Cloudpaw will be known as Cloudtail, because you have a tail with a cloud on it."
"Can't you just call me Cloudblaze or something?" Cloudtail complained.
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty please?"
"Shut up already!" Ashpaw growled. "I want my warrior name!"
"Oh, right." As it turns out, Bluestar forgot about Ashpaw and Fernpaw. In the end, Ashpaw should have not reminded Bluestar about their turn to be named warriors, for Bluestar gave them the worst names that any warrior could have in their life {well, they thought it was a bad name, anyway}. "You shall be known as Ashcomplainer. Fernpaw will be known as Fernquietcat."
"Bluestar, are you okay?" Goodygoody asked. "Those are not proper names. Erin Hunter said that you have to call Ash…complainer Ashfur and Fernquietcat Ferncloud."
"No she didn't!" Bluestar snapped.
Goodygoody gasped. "You're drunk! No wonder!"
"Do you want me to change your name to Goodygoodytwoshoes now?" Bluestar threatened Goodygoody.
"Uhh…no."
"Then shut up! Ceremony, finished."
…
I hoped you enjoyed that!
I tried to make it sound really cool and hilarious. Thank you to all those who reviewed and I hope you enjoy all the future chapters that I may write.
Plus, my next chapter will be on how Onewhisker got his warrior name! Please point out some other names and some ideas for my other chapters if you wish. Thanks a lot!
