Sorry it's so short… I wanted to update soon! Enjoy!

As Heatherkit and Nightpaw stood in the middle of the clearing in their new, GlacierClan, home; all they could think was, well, that they were finally going to be accepted.
"Now," Icestar began, "This young apprentice is Nightpaw; and this kit is Heatherkit! I suppose we should start off by giving Nightpaw a mentor. Ravenshadow, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You will be mentor to Nightpaw, may you pass on to her all you know."
As Icestar finished, a dark tom stepped forward and touched noses with a speechless Nightpaw. "Tonight will be your silent vigil." Icestar continued once the two sat down at the edge of the group. "As for Heatherkit, he is too old to need milk." He turned to Heatherkit. "How old are you, exactly?" He asked him.
"Fi-five moons," Heatherkit's words stumbled out.
"Five moons! That must mean you'll be an apprentice soon!" Icestar replied. Heatherkit just nodded. "Now, I think that wraps it up! Oh! Who will be responsible for Heatherkit?" Icestar asked. Then, he turned to Heatherkit. "Nothing against you, it's just warrior code."
"I will!" A white she-cat called out.
"Thank you, Cloudleaf," Icestar called. Cloudleaf just nodded.
After the Clan meeting was over, Icestar told Heatherkit to follow Cloudleaf to the nursery. As he was heading over to the she-cat, he noticed Nightpaw with a few other apprentices by her.
"Hi! I'm Quickpaw! This is Creampaw and over by the medicine cat's den is Dreampaw, Snowdrop's apprentice!" A striped tom introduced himself. He flicked his tail over towards a larger gray and white she-cat when he mentioned Dreampaw. "Snowdrop is the medicine cat, by the way. Oh! And that grumpy mousebrain over there is Hawkpaw." He said signaling to a brown tom.
"Hi!" Nightpaw replied enthusiastically.
As he got to Cloudleaf, she signaled Heatherkit to follow her. She ducked under a thickly guarded bramble bush in front of him as Heatherkit smelled the sweet scent of milk and figure this was the nursery. As he went in, he saw three kits near a larger she-cat and two other kits were going up to Cloudleaf.
"These are my kits, Heatherkit – Graykit and Cloverkit." Cloudleaf told him, pointing to each kit as she said their names. "Over there is Featherstream and those kits are Stormkit, Shadowkit, and Snowkit."
"Hi," Heatherkit said shyly.
"Hi!" All the kits seemed to shout at once.
"Graykit and Cloverkit will become apprentices the same time you will, Heatherkit." Cloudleaf told Heatherkit.
"Really?" Heatherkit tried to sound interested, but it was hard. All he could think about was whether it was worth leaving SharkClan. After all, his family is back there. The closest family he had here was Nightpaw and, frankly, he didn't get along with her very well. Oh well, I'll just have to get over it and forget about them. There's no going back now!
