Talkie time!
Ok so the question of the day is "If you could kill one cat from the original series who would it be?" I would kill Ashfur because I hate him for not understanding Squirrelflight… That's all for now peace!

On with the story…
Back in the ThunderClan camp
"Roughpelt!"
Who?
The silver kit looked around, she had no idea of who her mentor to be was. Finally a dark ginger tom stepped out of the crowd, he had piercing green eyes. For some reason the sight of this mysterious tom sent shivers down her spine.
"I am honored to be this apprentice's mentor!"
"Swiftpaw, Swiftpaw, Swiftpaw!"
"Next up is the youngest of the she-kits, Ravenkit step forward."
Swiftpaw watched her sister step forward, the normally shining eyes were clouded with fear.
"From now on until you become a warrior you will be known as Ravenpaw! Your mentor will be Mintfur!"
Ravenpaw watched as the orange tom padded up to her.
"Thank you for giving me this honor Shinestar."
"Ravenpaw, Ravenpaw, Ravenpaw!"
"Next is the former rouge Jaykit."
After a moment of thinking the leader finished.
"From now on until you become a warrior you will be known as Jaypaw. Your mentor will be… Robinstreak."
The clan did not cheer for the newly named apprentice this time. The ceremony was over and everyone but Jaypaw was happy.
"Swiftpaw come it is time for you to meet your territory!"
Swiftpaw turned her head to see her mentor.
"I thought I was to stay in camp until healed?"
"Shinestar thinks you can handle it, come on we are losing daylight!"
Meanwhile in ShadowClan
"Darkfrost by the time Smokekit becomes an apprentice Lithepaw will be a warrior so you will be her mentor!"
The kit padded to her future mentor and pawed his shoulder, a sign of respect in the clan. Nightkit ended up with Burnclaw and Blackkit got Iceshard. Smokekit looked up to her future mentor and asked.
"Can you teach me another move?"
In ThunderClan
"Shinestar I want to be a medicine cat not a warrior!"
"If you prove you can be a loyal warrior you can become a medicine cat."
With a nod the new apprentice walked out. Leaving Shinestar alone to worry about his deputy.
In Heatherstrike's dream
Heatherstrike opened her eyes to see the four trees surrounding her. The one closest to ThunderClan was on fire though, a whisper sounded.
Before thunder needs to be saved by fire an invisible enemy will rise… rough with an unknown pelt. Thunder can be saved only by swiftness of the pelt and mind
"Hello? Anyone there?"
Save thunder! Find the swiftness, the one with a swift mind and pelt… find them. Hide the swift one in the black night, smoke will fight to help. SAVE THUNDER!
A huge cat appeared and vanished, then four smaller cats ran after the unseen cat. Then, blackness…
Heatherstrike shot up jolting back into the waking world. My dream… what did it mean? Shinestar padded into the medicine den as he noticed his deputy's concusses the leader veered towards Heatherstrike.
"Heatherstrike I am firing you as a deputy, with your wound and all it gives more the reason to make a better deputy."
"What? You can't do this!"
Wait this is just another dream no need to fear.
With a sudden rush Heatherstrike was pulled forward at an incredible speed. She saw Swiftkit standing at the side of a sleeping Shinestar, no dead Shinestar sorrow filling her eyes. A brown tom pads up to her and nudges the grieving kit… warrior away from the corpse.
"SWIFTKIT WHAT IS GOING ON?!"
But the silver she-cat pays no attention. An older looking copy of Heatherstrike pads into the camp her head hung as she whispered.
"Oh Shinestar I will miss you, goodbye Shinestar."
Then once again blackness…
Back in waking world of ThunderClan
"MOUSEKIT GET BACK OVER HERE NOW!"
Mousekit slunk back to the nursery as a body is carried out of the clearing, it is Heatherstrike.
"Tallfeather what happened?"
Shinestar padded out of his den, his tail swooshing to and fro.
"Heatherstrike died of a heart-failure in her sleep,"
"NO NOT MY HEATHERSTRIKE!"
Shinestar raced to his deputy, and buried his face in her fur. His quiet sobs began, little to the tom's knowledge Heatherstrike was thinking of him in a mournful way as well. With a gasp Heatherstrike opened her eyes.
"Shinestar where are we?"
Shinestar raised his head and looked at his deputy will relief, his blue eyes glossing over with happiness.
"Oh Heatherstrike my deputy I thought you left me!"
"Never,"
The deputy gazed into her leader's eyes with her own heather colored ones filled with happiness.
"Heatherstrike I love you, do you love me?"
Heatherstrike gazed at Shinestar her eyes held a certain look of nostalgia.
"Shinestar I loved you once but you know I have had kits with another warrior,"
Within a minute of silence Swiftpaw, Mousekit, and a few warriors came to move the deputy. Shinestar watched his deputy get carried back to her nest, not trying to meet her heather colored gaze. After Heatherstrike was back in her nest the camp dispersed back into the normal buzz of conversations.
"Hey Swiftpaw, how was seeing all of ThunderClan?"
The silver she-cat turned to see Mousekit padding up to her holding two mice. Swiftpaw smiled before responding.
"It was great! You know only one more moon till you get to do the same?"
"Yeah it's going to be awesome!"
"You must be hungry tonight! Two mice for a kit, only half a moon ago you were eating a fourth of a mouse!"
"Well I was wondering if you wanted to share. One for me one for you?"
"Sounds great!"
The two sat down and began to eat while exchanging words and laughs.
"Swiftpaw I want you to come with me for a little,"
Swiftpaw turned to see her mentor standing at the entrance. Muttering a goodbye to Mousekit she hurried off to meet her mentor at the camp entrance.
"Yes Roughpelt?"
"I want you to learn about the cats that died in the battle you were born in. Follow me,"
After a few minutes of running the two came upon two graves one poppy flower and one catmint plant sat upon the mounds of dirt and stone.
"The poppy is an elder that died as warrior going down in a mound of ShadowClan cats… The second is your father… He was amazing that cat, and will be missed for a long time,"
Swiftpaw dipped her head and turned to her mentor.
"What next?"
"We shall return to camp, eat, and then sleep."
