PROLOGUE
"Falconclaw, are you satisfied that your apprentice is ready to become a warrior?"
"Yes, she is quite ready. I believe she will serve her clan well and always put her clan first."
Pantherstar nodded her agreement. "I, Pantherstar, leader of Sparkclan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down upon this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the ways of you noble code, and I commend her to you as warriors in her turn."
"Maplepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and defend this clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do."
"Then by the powers of Starclan, I give you your warrior name. Maplepaw, from now on you will be known as Mapleclaw. The clan welcomes you as a full warrior."
Mapleclaw! Mapleclaw! Mapleclaw! The clan cheered for it's new warrior as Mistfall, Lionroar, Rainpuddle, Bluepelt, and Thorntail, all warrior ancestors of Sparkclan, looked down from Starclan as one of their clans' most important cats were made into warriors. "The maple moon must rise before the Clans may be at peace from the Talon's claws." Mistfall whispered the prophecy to herself.
This prophecy must be told to Tulipheart and Moonpaw, the current Sparkclan medicine cat and her apprentice, at the next half-moon when the medicine cats would meet at the Moontree. The Moontree was a great old willow that the cats of Starclan were able to communicate with the cats of the clans.
"A sign must also be sent to Pantherstar, as she is their leader." Rainpuddle mewed quietly into the silence.
"Yes, I shall do that right now." Bluepelt murmured as she slipped off into the shadows.
The rest followed suit and padded off into the brush. Mistfall was left alone watching over the newly made warrior as she sat guardnext to the old Acacia tree for her warrior vigil outside the sleeping camp.
