Hoi Guys. I'm back. Enjoy the next chapter(with coffee or something I don't know.)
Crunch. The sound of a leaf being stepped on echoed throughout the forest as Duskkit, who had snuck out of camp during the night, was roaming toward the old ShadowClan border. Inside, he was thinking. What had Bramblestar meant when he said Unless the power is used in a battle…? Leafkit hadn't thought much of it, but Duskkit was really wondering? Did they have special powers? If so, why had no one told them? And why was Thornclaw so mean? Duskkit had a million questions in her head, but not one answer.
A tiny paw prodded Duskkit in the side, and she stirred and looked up. Leafkit was standing above her, bouncing around . She let a yawn before slowly trudging out of her nest. "What's wrong?"
"We should escape from here. Now, while everyone's asleep. Nobody will miss us anyway, because they're all mean and stuff."
"Leafkit." Duskkit shook him. "Were already seven moons old. Do you realize that we'll be apprentices soon?"
"Do you have bees in your brain? We were supposed to be apprenticed last moon. Even Snowpaw got apprenticed, and yet she's younger than us!" Leafkit hissed, racing out the door. "Leafkit, no!" Duskkit bit back the words, as she saw the kit skid to a halt behind Lionblaze, who was on guard. Duskkit watched in dismay as Lionblaze's ears pricked up, then turned around. "What is a ignorant little kit doing up at night?" Leafkit, obviously stunned, stuttered," Well..um…"
"You're coming with me to Bramblestar." Lionblaze bit the kit by the scruff and started to haul him toward Bramblestar's den." Anf fon't fake a noisf eithef." Lionblaze muttered through a mouthful of fur. Duskkit could only watch as her friend was being hauled away.
After what seemed like a moon, Bramblestar finally came out with Lionblaze and Leafkit at his side. Lionblaze looked grumpy; Duskkit wondered what had happened, as Leafkit didn't look negative. Bramble leaped up on the (Highrock?) and yowled," All cats old enough to catch their own prey come join here for a clan meeting!" As the cats swarmed out of the den and gathered together, Duskkit saw many not-so-nice glances at her and Leafkit. Duskkit suddenly felt embarrassed sitting there, and she headed to the nursery to join Cherryfall.
"I understand, my Clan, that you want these kits to be exiled due to a recent prophecy that was given to Jayfeather that these kits would bring great danger, but I can see no more reason why they shouldn't be an apprentice anymore." Yowls of protest came up from among the crowd, blocking out the few cats who agreed.
"Bramblestar, do you have bees in your brain? If you let these two kits become apprentices, danger will come along with them, and ThunderClan doesn't need more danger. " Thornclaw yowled. "I demand we drive these kits out now!" As Duskkit looked at him, she started to feel sad. If I wasn't part of this prophecy, would I even be rejected by my Clanmates? Bramblestar's voice interrupted her from her thoughts. "Thornclaw, you know as well as I do that these kits haven't done anything yet, and are therefore harmless. We will not discuss this any further. Leafkit, 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 Leafpaw. Your mentor will be…" He paused to scan the clearing." Cinderheart. Cinderheart, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Cloudtail, and you have shown yourself to be brave and loyal. You will be the mentor of Leafpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to him." Cinderheart walked up to him, bending down to touch noses with him, his eyes shining with delight. Not many more looked enthusiastic, but eventually a few warriors and Snowpaw started chanting, "Leafpaw! Leafpaw!"
"Now for you." Bramblestar meowed with warmth in his voice. But Duskkit's paws felt frozen to the ground, and only a push from her mother could make her paws unfreeze and head toward Bramblestar.
"Duskkit, 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 Duskpaw. I will be your mentor." he finished. Her eyes glittered when she heard that the leader was her mentor. She barely heard him when he said," The clan is dismissed, and even when some cats cast dismissive looks at her. As Duskpaw headed toward Bramblestar, who was pacing out of camp, she suddenly heard a yowl from him.
"Great StarClan, no! It's a dog!"
