I do not own warriors- if I did, Dovewing would be with Bumblestripe.
"Really?"
I stare up at the Thunderclan leader, who nods. "You defeated one of our warriors with moves we have never seen. If you join us, Thunderclan will thrive." He looks up, and I follow his gaze. One warrior of Starclan is in the sky.
"I, Firestar, leader of Thunderclan, call upon Starclan to look on this cat. She has proven herself as a worthy warrior. I now confirm your warrior name. You are a-"
"No."
I rise to my feet, looking at him. "Don't make me a warrior yet. I have yet to know Clan life, and my hunting can use a lot of work. Give me a mentor for two moons, that should be enough. Then you will know if I am worthy or not."
Cats start to murmur, but what I say is true. I can't hunt! Freshkill…do I really have to eat mouse!
Firestar looks at me, then says "You are right. You will have a mentor- Brightheart."
Brightheart!
I spin around to see her coming near me. I pad up and eagerly touch her nose with mine, making us official. Brightheart is one of my favorite characters!
The clan starts to chant. "Wolfsong! Wolfsong!"
Could this day get any better?
When the clan leaves, I turn to my mentor, only to stumble-when I landed into the hollow, I scraped my paws pretty badly. "Damnit…"
"Are you ok?" Brightheart asks me.
"I'm fine." I turn toward her. "I might need some dock though… do you have any?"
Surprised, she flicks her tail toward a den at the corner of the hollow. "That's the medicine cat den. Jaypaw or Leafpool can help you. You better go- the sooner, the quicker we start training."
I bounce up. "Thank you!" I exclaim, heading straight toward the den. Inside, I find Jaypaw sorting herbs. Hmm…
"Jaypaw, right? Do you have any dock?"
He turns toward me, surprised. "You know about herbs?"
"A bit. Dock for sore paws, marigold or horsetail for infection, cowebs for bleeding, burdock root for rat bites, thyme for shock, poppy seed for pain, comfrey for broken bones…" I trail off, and then add, "But dock is why I came…"
Jaypaw snaps out of it, and gives me some leaves to rub on my paws. Took him long enough, the idiot. I go out, but I stop in the entrance.
"Jaypaw…there will be three, kin of the cat with fire in his pelt, who hold the power of the stars in their paws. Watch out for the greening holly and the blazing lion."
I don't care if I get kicked out, it was totally worth the look on his face.
