Sorry I haven't updated. But here's another chapter!

"Will you show us the camp RainKit?" CoralKit squeaked, bouncing next to him. The kits were already two moons old, and RainKit and RippleKit were anxiously waiting to be made apprentices. RainKit was excited to get out of the nursery, but not training. RippleKit has been hanging around StormPaw, all the time. Learning battle moves and hunting in the river. RainKit was more or less stuck with the job of looking after the new kits. CoralKit, FoamKit and their brother ReedKit. RainKit tried to spend most of his time with ReedKit because he was the only boy. By now it was leaf-bare and the river had frozen over a bit, making prey scarce. RainKit sighed.
"I don't know guys, it's awfully chilly." He said looking down at their eager faces.
"Please, get them out of here! They have been driving me crazy!" PebblePelt complained. RainKit nodded.
"Alright kits. Let's go." The kits bounded out of the nursery and stopped, jaws open wide.
"It's so big!" ReedKit meowed, in awe.
"Yup, Someday-" RainKit was cut short by WaterStar
"Let all cats old enough to swim join here beneath High Boulder for a clan meeting!" Cats all around scurried to the rock.
"C'mon kits! Let's go!" The four of them raced to join the crowd.
"CloudPaw, StormPaw, and PondPaw, step forward please." The three apprentices obeyed and sat at the base of the rock. "I, WaterStar, leader of RiverClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on these three apprentices. They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as warriors in their turn." He hopped down from the rock to look at the three excited apprentices. "StormPaw, PondPaw, and CloudPaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, to protect and defend this clan, even at the cost of your lives?"
"I do." StormPaw said.
"I do." PondPaw practically yowled.
"I do." CloudPaw repeated steadily.
"Then by the powers of StarClan I give you your warrior names: StormPaw from this moment you will be known as StormClaw. StarClan honors your strength and bravery and we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan." WaterStar rested his muzzle on StormClaw's bowed head. Then StormClaw stepped back. WaterStar turned to PondPaw.
"PondPaw from this moment you will be known as PondStone. StarClan honors your courage and loyalty and we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan." WaterStar placed his muzzle on PondStone's head, and she stepped back. "CloudPaw, from this moment you will be known as CloudFur. StarClan honors you strength and loyalty as we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan." CloudFur bowed his head and WaterStar rested his muzzle on CloudFur's head.
"StormClaw! PondStone! CloudFur!" The clan cheered. RainKit cheered along with his clanmates. He was excited for the new warriors but he knew his turn would come soon.

Chapter
His mother's rough licks comforted RainKit as he stood outside the nursery one moon later. He hadn't figured out why they had to wait an extra moon for their apprenticeship, but it came and RainKit was scared.
"RippleKit, RainKit, step forward please." WaterStar called. RippleKit bounded forward and RainKit tentatively followed him. He was about to say something, anything! To get him out of this. But he saw the look in his mother's eyes. So proud of her little kits. RainKit sighed, he would do this for his mother. RippleKit went first and became RipplePaw. His mentor would be StormClaw. RainKit became RainPaw and his mentor is CrystalHeart. He touched noses with his new mentor. Well this was going to be interesting.

Thanks for reading! I'm going to start a new story for their lives as apprentices. It will be called A New RiverClan: Part 2 I'll update more often the more reviews I get. Thanks!
