Chapter 5: New name, new life
Fallenpaw's POV
"Today you go to receive you Medicine Cat name! Good Luck!" I mewed when Solemnpaw woke me up.
"Thanks. I hope I get a cool name. Hmmm, I have to go. I leave to go with Rainstorm right now." Solemnpaw meowed.
"Bye. When will you be back?" I inquired.
"About moonhigh." She murmured. She ran out of the apprentice den, knowing it would be the last night she spent there. I would miss her warmth beside me, but knew it was her destiny.
"Fallenpaw! I know you want to become a warrior before Mistykit, so I decided to put away my leader duties to train you." A familiar voice said.
"H…how did you know?" I stammered.
"A little birdy told me. Solemnpaw told Rainstorm and she told me. Sorry if you feel that way." Duskstar meowed.
"Oh. Sorry. Thank you for your ti-"I was cut off by Duskstar
"I get it. Now let's go train. I plan on giving all the apprentices a hunting assessment tomorrow, and I don't want you to embarrass me." She explained. I nodded. We walked out of camp and she told me to run ahead and get to training grounds.
"Now-"this time I cut her off.
"Stalk lightly for mice, and be quick and upwind for rabbits. Mice will feel you before they see you, and rabbits will smell you. I really think you should skip the kit stuff and teach me 'bout how to stalk birds." I told her.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot how far we were. I think we should go up to the moors close to the SouthClans to hunt some birds. Are you OK with that?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Come on Hopepaw, let's go greet Solemnpaw. Or whatever her new name is!" I called to Hopepaw.
"Sure. Let's go." Hopepaw said. So we walked out to the clearing. We walked up to Solemnwhatever and asked: "So what's your name now?" Hopepaw asked.
"Hi Hopepaw, hey Fallenpaw. My new name is Solemnsliver. So now you call me by my medicine cat name." she said like she was the new leader. She put real emphasis on the paws in our name, like trying to remind us that we were still apprentices. All the while I was shifting the weight on my haunches. Hopepaw must have seen my discomfort and said "Um… let's go Fallenpaw." I silently followed her, know ing she was clueless to the fact of Solemnsliver. I had to tell her what I was afraid of was true.
"Hopepaw," I said when we got to the apprentice den, "What I was afraid of was true. Solemnsliver now thinks she is better than us, because we are apprentices."
" No wonder she was all stuffy."
"I think we should try to let it blow over. If not that, we need to tell her what we think."
"Let's hope it blows over soon…" Hopepaw muttered under her breath.
"Me too." I said.
OK, I'm sorry that I made Solemnsliver look like a butthole, but I felt as if I had to. Since not a lot of people guessed which one I am, I'm waiting to tell you until next chapter. I am not going to put up a new chapter till I get –gasp- three reviews. So R&R!
