OMG! I am sssssssooooooo sorry about the wait for this chapter. I am trying to get rid of writer's block and I am succeding, sort of. I had inspiration for another fic and not this one so I have been working on that one for a while. Don't feel bad though, I'm writing an Avatar: The Last Airbender fanfic that I want to finish before posting it, and I haven't worked on it for a whole season and more. Ok, I won't keep you waiting. Enjoy.
(Dapplepaw POV)
"Yes, Ravenpaw is our father. We wish to join Thunderclan."
I can't believe it! The legendary Ravenpaw's kits are here, and asking to join Thunderclan!
"Where is Ravenpaw right now?" Our leader asks; hope shining in his eyes even in the dim light.
"Ravenpaw said he will come in a couple moons, our mother is a bit ill right now."
"Oh," Firestar seems a bit disappointed but I imagine he is still happy that his friend will be coming soon. "Now, we should discuss the matters of you joining the Clan. Are you both sure that you wish to join Thunderclan?"
"We are." Lily replies after glancing at her brother to make sure he is.
"Then we will have your apprentice ceremony at sunset."
"Thank you, sir." Lark mews.
"My name is Firestar and I am leader of Thunderclan."
"Thank you then, Firestar." They turn around to exit the den and we follow. But Firestar calls us back.
"Dapplepaw, Cherrypaw, please stay behind." Lily and Lark turn around to glance at us, worry evident in their eyes for their new friends. We turn around and sit where we are. "Your mentors tell me that you both have passed your last assessments, are you guys ready to become warriors?"
"I am." I mew, so excited, my voice rises up an octave.
"Me too."
"Then, your warrior ceremonies will also be at sundown. Go get some rest before your vigil." He tells us, lying down in his nest, clearly dismissing us. We pad out of the den and jump down from highledge, and pad toward the medicine den to check on Jayfeather.
"Jayfeather, are you in here?" I call into the den.
"I'm back here. Did Cherrypaw get greencough again?"
"No Jayfeather, I'm fine." Cherrypaw tells him.
"Then why are you here?" Grouchy medicine kitty asks.
"We are becoming warriors at sundown!"
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Well, since Leafpool is your mother and ours, we thought you would like to know."
"Leafpool is NOT my mother! She didn't trust us enough to even tell the truth to us!" His light blue eyes are burning with rage. "I have no mother. Now get out!" We slowly back out of the den, scared that he will attack us if we move any faster. Once we are in the clearing we walk faster.
"Let's go tell Leafpool and Crowfeather!" I mew to Cherrypaw.
"Sure!" We pad over to the warriors den to find our parents.
"Leafpool, Crowfeather? Are you guys here?"
"Wha…?" We back away from the entrance as a sleepy Crowfeather pads out followed by Leafpool.
"Guess what?!" Crowfeather shakes his head to get rid of the sleepiness.
"I won't get any sleep tonight?" Our father purrs.
"Um… Not sure. But nope!"
"You guys are still kits and I've just dreamed the past six moons?"
"Nope!"
"Then what?" Leafpool asks.
"We're becoming warriors at sundown!
"Congratulations! We are sooooo proud of you!"
"Thanks, but Whitekit should be getting her warrior name too." Cherrypaw mews sadly.
"Yes, she should, but she is with Starclan now. I'm sure she will be watching both of you as you get your names."
"Do you really think so?" I ask, hope evident in my voice.
"I know so."
"Thanks, Leafpool." I rub up against her and Crowfeather purring. "We better get some sleep now."
"Ok, we will wake you up right before the meeting."
"Thanks." We pad away and into the apprentice's den probably for the last time.
"You do realize that they meant so they can groom us like crazy, right?"
"Oh no, oops!"
"It's ok, they just want us to be kits again and in the nursery."
"Ok, goodnight Dapplepaw."
"Goodnight Cherrypaw."
Ok, I feel really bad about such a short chapter. It was more of a filler than anything, but I hadn't updated in FOREVER! I felt that you guys deserved a chapter so you didn't think I died and went to Starclan.
Thanks to PrincessLunar and AK47 for reviewing. If anybody is wondering why Crowfeather is in Thunderclan, I read a fanfic, Crow's Thunder, by Russell Scottie that says Crowfeather joined Thunderclan after the attack, and I kind of went after that, where Leafpool finished training the next medicine cat, retired, and became a warrior with Crowfeather once she became expecting. You should read it to understand more. I don't agree with it completly, but I went with the idea that Crowfeather joined Thunderclan after the badger attack and she had more kits after Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf, and after she became a warrior. Ok, I'll stop my mumbling and move on. have read over my other chapters and there are lots of mistakes, but it's my first fanfiction on .
Disclaimer: jayleaf1 does not own warriors, The Erin Hunter's do (I'm just going to call them Erin Hunter from now on). Anybody that says otherwise, uses my characters, or flames me will have to... (Trying to think something up) *3:30pm* um, *3:31* will have to figure out what this means, #(^!*^&*!$%% . No, it's not something that I would but down if somebody ssaid a bad word that I wouldn't like to type. You can still figure it out if you wish.
P.S. Can somebody tell me what a Beta Reader is? I've heard lots of authors say they have Beta's but I want to know what it is. Please tell me! If you tell me what it means or the code above, I'll give you a Dapplepaw plushie. ;3
