I heard a panicked voice "Remember me my beautiful kit, I love you." But I could never see the speaker. I woke to my sister FoxKit jabbing me awake, she whispered "ClawKit the older kits are becoming apprentices tomorrow I said we could help them enjoy their last day."
I groaned the only older kit I liked being around was BrokenKit, at least he was fun. I told her to leave me alone. After that I went to look for BrokenKit he found me first though. He pounced on me growling playfully.
"Not even an apprentice yet and I have caught my first prey!" I looked up at him and retorted
"You wish! I'm faster than a jackrabbit after eating catmint!" We exchanged these retorts until getting bored. Eventually he had to leave to get groomed by his mom YellowFang who was going to be the medicine cat but decided to have BrokenKit instead. His father was the deputy, RaggedPelt so BrokenKit was definitely going to get the best mentor.
When it was time for the ceremony all of the older kits lined up to be renamed. I felt my ears go red as BrokenKit sneaked a glance my way. FoxKit shoved me to pay attention, the ceremony had begun.
CedarStar begun to yowl the traditional words as he named the older kits apprentices.
"I CedarStar call upon my warrior ancestors to look upon these kits, as they have reached the age of 6 moons and are ready to train in your ways."
The rest seemed to drag on until it was BrokenKit's turn. As I expected he got the best mentor CedarStar himself, but he called up to his mentor.
"I wish to train an extra moon so that I may become a warrior with one of my friends." The clan was shocked, but CedarStar was not fazed he just looked at me, then nodded to BrokenKit.
That night was quiet until the silence was shattered by a single yowl.
"THUNDERCLAN ATTACK!"
