Ch. 6 Apprentices no-longer
Cloverpaw ran through the forest. The sun was high in the sky. Rays of sunlight came thought the bare trees. It was almost leaf- fall. For moons the clans have been in peace. Cloudpaw has recovered from her battle with Tigerheart and Darkpaw. The sisters have been apprentices for many moons now.
Cloverpaw and Cloudpaw were on their final test that would make them warriors. Cloverpaw already had a mouse, vole, and starling.
Cloverpaw scented a mouse in the distance. She located the place where the mouse was. It was collecting nuts for leaf-bare. Cloverpaw crept closer. The mouse was unaware of her presence. Cloverpaw pounced. The mouse scampered away. Cloverpaw sped after it. Cloverpaw swerved and hit the mouse with her paw. The mouse went limp. Cloverpaw was startled by the rustling of the bushes, "Nice catch!" Lionstar appeared. Then he added, " You passed." They both smiled.
Lionstar read Cloverpaw's thoughts, "Yes, Cloudpaw passed, too."
Cinderheart and Cloudpaw crept from the bushes. Cinderheart answered Cloverpaw's other thought," The ceremony will be later today, and Lionstar and I will make the announcement there, too."
