I do not own Warriors just everything regarding the story (including the cover)
Time slips by slowly, though sometimes it seems to go way too quickly qnd slowly at the same time. Now the four of us have become five moons old; just a moon away from bringing ourselves one step closer to our dreams. Out of all of us Frostkit is the most excited because the half moon is just two days after our apprenticeship will happen.
Also Amberbreeze has given birth to kits, Redkit and Petalkit. Tinymoon will give birth to her kits any day now. Even so with all this new life something has happened that has put all the older cats on edge.
What ever it was Pepperstar didn't really seem that affected by it for some reason. He is going to give Robinpaw her warrior ceremony today. Some cats were complaining that he should of done it sooner.
So here I was with my brother and Runninkit waiting for the ceremony to happen. Frostkit was following Icythorn around camp, which some cats didn't agree with. Though Icythorn snapped at them and told them if she could she would make Frostkit her apprentice early; anyways he was helping her get more things done in camp.
"Pinestorm why can't I become a warrior with Robinpaw?" A pitch black tom complained.
"Simply, you're too young to become a warrior.. Anyways Robinpaw should've become a warrior long ago.. But no her apprentice ceremony had to be delayed because she was sick.. Then on her first day of apprenticeship Echostar and Rosestar, well Roseshadow then thought it was a good idea to attack Pepperstar and her when he was showing her the borders.. I swear to StarClan if things didn't keep popping up in her way of becoming a warrior , she would of become a warrior the day you were apprenticed.." The pale brown tabby tom meowed.
"But I-" He broke off as a black she-cat padded up to him.
"Give it a rest Stormpaw.. Anyways you're making a scene in front of three of our future denmates…" The she-cat meowed.
"Hollypaw I was not making a scene!" Stormpaw snapped.
"You so were.. Now I'm going to go find Icythorn and Frostkit to let them now the ceremony will start soon.." Hollypaw meowed before running off in the direction of the medicine cat's den.
It wasn't long till the whole clan was basically in the clearing. The only cat who had yet to appear was Pepperstar himself. Though it wasn't long till he came out of his den.
"Cats of NightClan we are gathered here today to give Robinpaw her warrior name.. Robinpaw please come forward," Pepperstar meowed. The black and ginger tabby she-cat walked up to Pepperstar slowly and calmly. "Do promise to uphold the warrior code even at the of your own life?" The old spotted tabby tom meowed.
"I do" she meowed calmly.
"Then by the powers of StarClan you are no longer Robinpaw but Robinsong. StarClan honors your bravery and loyalty." Pepperstar meowed dipping his head to the young she-cat, then she licked his shoulder.
"Robinsing" The clan began to cheer.
"Robinsong" The whole clan cheered.
The Clan was still celebrating about Robinson finally becoming a warrior as the sun began to set upon the horizon. Greykit couldn't help but notice how Pepperstar was not really showing any signs of enjoying the celebration. Even so Pepperstar did seem happy that his apprentice had finally become a warrior though.
"Greykit do you wonder what our warrior names will be?" Runningkit meowed disrupting his thoughts.
"I do wonder what they will be, but even so that does seem far away right now.. But then again, soon enough we'll be one step closer to our dreams.."Greykit meowed.
"Isn't it strange how earlier today everyone but Pepperstar was on edge, but now he's the only one on edge?" Blackkit meowed tilting his head, before Runninkit could speak again.
"Now that I think of it, you're right Blackkit" Runningkit gasped.
"What are you three mewing about right now?" Stormpaw asked walking up to them.
"We weren't mewing!" Greykit hissed at the older tom.
"Says the kit" Stormpaw meowed.
Before the argument could escalate any farther than that Blackkit meowed something that stopped it entirely, by bringing something else to their attention, "If you are so smart, Stormpaw, what is that scent coming from the entrance?" Blackkit said staring in the direction of the entrance.
"What, sce-" Stormpaw started before breaking off as a figure slipped through the entrance.
He was a dark grey tabby tom;clearly not much older than six moons. His blue and green eye were filled with fear and dread. His thick looking pelt was plastered with blood, and deep looking scars.
