"Wake up!" A voice whispered. "Wake up Snowpaw! It's important!"
Snowpaw grumbled and rolled over to see Bluepaw leaning over him. "What?"
"Harestar just called a clan meeting and we need to go." He meowed excitedly. Snowpaw pushed him out of the way and bounded over to Poppypaw.
"Welcome apprentices!" Harestar announced proudly. "Come up here."
The three apprentices shoved each other out of the way, trying to beat one another there. They skidded to a halt with Snowpaw in the lead.
"Do your mentors believe you have gained the skills necessary to become warriors?" He asked. When Sundapple, Dawnlight, and Foxtail nodded he continued. "Then I will give you your warrior names. Bluepaw, your warrior name is Bluestripe. Snowpaw, yours is Snowfall, and Poppypaw, yours is Poppynose." Congratulations."
"Bluestripe, Snowfall, Poppynose!" The clan yowled. The three apprentices were nearly bouncing with joy as they were surrounded by their clanmates.
"You three will be able to have your silent vigil together tonight." Harestar meowed. "Just remember to stay silent."
Snowfall laughed and looked towards the sunset. "When do we have to stay silent?"
"From when the sun sets to when it rises. You have a little while." Harestar replied. Snowfall nodded and padded over to touch noses with Poppynose. "We finally made it!" He whispered into her ear.
She nodded and licked him on the head. "Yes we did, together."
They pressed their pelts together and sat down. Bluestripe followed them and shouldered his way in between them. "We did do it all together!" He meowed jealously. Snowfall and Poppynose looked at each other awkwardly. Snowfall knew he had been neglecting his best friend for Poppynose, but he didn't think he had hurt his feelings that much. Bluestripe stared at them with a curled lip. "Sorry for interrupting." He spat. He growled at them as he turned away and ran away to Quickstep. Snowfall wrinkled his nose like he had smelled something bad. "Ugh, he knows I hate Quickstep. Why is he deciding to be friends with him now?"
Poppynose tried to calm him down. "He's upset about losing you as his best friend. He just wants you to pay more attention to him, and less to me."
"Well, if he wants me to pay more attention to him, he needs to stop talking to Quickstep." Snowfall sniffed.
"You're acting like a kit." Poppynose meowed. Snowfall eyes flashed with anger and he padded away from the ginger she-cat. He went to the camp entrance and sat, waiting until the sun was down. Poppynose and Bluestripe followed him and sat on each side of him. The three cats that had all been great friends only heartbeats before, didn't want to talk to each other ever again.
