Something very exciting happens in this chapter including Stormkit, and you thought I forgot about him!
Hollykit yawned softly as Frozenkit pounced away from their mother. She couldn't help but purr at her sister's excitement. Today was their apprentice ceremony and she and her sister were so excited. Stormkit on the other paw…
Her brother sat in a dark corner of the nursery, murmuring to himself quietly. Stormkit always was by himself, never playing with her and Frozenkit. He wasn't rejected from them, the sisters often tried to play with him. But he would simply say, "Maybe later, I'm busy."
"Frozenkit! Stop squirming!" her mother hissed, pawing toward Frozenkit.
Suddenly Bramblestar's call aroused her thoughts. Hollykit quickly rushed out of the nursery after a messy Frozenkit. Cats began gathering in the clearing. She saw Lionblaze pad toward Cinderheart, both beaming with pride. Then the meeting began.
"Frozenkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Frozenpaw. Your mentor will be Lilytail. I hope Lilytail will pass down all she knows on to you. Lilytailyou are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Berrynose and you have shown yourself to be loyal and calm. You will mentor Frozenpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her." Bramblestar meowed.
Frozenpaw bounded down to Lilytail and they touched muzzles. Hollykit realized then it was her turn and stepped forward.
"Hollykit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Hollypaw. Your mentor will be Icecloud. I hope Icecloud will pass down all she knows on to you. Icecloud, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Whitewing and you have shown yourself to be strong and patient. You will mentor Hollypaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her." Bramblestar meowed.
Hollypaw rushed down to Icecloud, the white she-cat purring at the sight of her new apprentice. Though excited, Hollypaw made herself sit calmly and watch Stormkit.
"Stormkit, you have reached the age of—"Bramblestar began but was cut off. Cats gasped, Hollypaw knew you never should cut off a leader during a meeting.
"Wait, I have decided something. I am not fit for a wild life, too many deaths, and too little food. I am going to live as a kittypet. I am sorry but I just can't stay here anymore." Stormkit meowed.
Hollypaw gasped in horror. How can he just leave? She thought. Maybe he would be a medicine cat, but not this.
"Stormkit, are you sure about this? All of the clans will treat you as an enemy." Bramblestar asked, clearly unsure. Stormkit nodded briskly. "Very well then, meeting dismissed." And then Stormkit padded out of camp, forever.
OH! What, didn't think I had it in me! So really wanted to get that up and stuff. I have new rule! I must have TWO positive reviews before I'll update. So review!
