Its gonna get harsh from here. More realistic, maybe.

Chapter 3

Todays the day...

I quickly finish up my human training, and I can't help but snicker at the thought, really. "man, I'm gonna be a warrior soon, wait, what's that scent...?" I sniff, smelling... Pheromones.

I never felt so weak to my knees, but I quickly shake it off, and I quickly rush to some other area. I find Rusty after walking a long way. "Let's go back into the forest, rusty, I'm pretty sure those forest cats are waiting." Rusty nods, coming with me out into the forest.

We both find bluestar and Lionheart. "hey, you came back. I assume your here to join?" Me and rusty nod. Then they bring us to their territory and camp after some small talk of clan stuff... We both smell foresty things and many scents, like cats and prey after walking for about 15 minutes.

We go to the entrance of Thunderclan. Rusty is quite nervous, but I'm unnervingly calm. "I guess reading the 'prophecies begin' series got me knowing almost everything. I only read midnight and riverstar's home, I think it was called." I smirk, finding a lot of cats in a clearing. And some of the cats spot us.

Lionheart quietly says, "don't worry, you will get used to it once you've fully joined, Rusty and Zero. They just need to find out your good enough for this clan. Bluestar forgot to mention this, but you will need to do apprentice duties once you've joined, and you also need to respect and love each other, and care for each other." I nod, as rusty looks around nervously.

Bluestar gets on the highrock, looking down at me and Rusty. Almost all clan cats notice us and watch. Then he comes... Longtail.

"hey kittypets! I thought you were supposed to be back at your little homes!" Longtail spat, he clearly isn't fond of kittypets. I'm slightly smaller than longtail. "hey, you better go back to your twolegs, or else they will start bringing their stench in the forest just to find you little fox-dungs!" Longtail snickered, and I didn't hiss or spit like a cat. It was, kind of unnerving. "watch your mouth, clan cat." I look at him. Rusty, and a few clan cats were surprised, and Longtail was mad, clearly not having it, and he pounces me.

I quickly slam into him, going with equal force, and I rush towards him, grabbing him roughly. Longtail raked at my sides and stomach, but damn, I was tough. I throw him against a rock, and he quickly gets up, hurt.

Bluestar watches with super slight admiration, and the clan cats never seen any cat move like that, they usually use claws or lunges, but I'm completely different. I quickly jump away, gracefully, hesitating. "Rusty, you wanna go?" I said, Rusty was hesitating too... "Don't worry dude, I'll help you if you get in a bad situation." I quietly said. I look back at longtail, whose hurt and quite bruised. "I hope rusty decides to attack, or else he might never become a clan cat... Damn it, I was the one who attacked him with great skill, and I might be the only one..." I mindedly said, slightly panicking on the inside.

Rusty finally decides to fight, and longtail fights too "that was clearly a close one, lucky Rusty..." They spat and scratched, They were bruised and cut, and its clear Rusty won, but only by raking his ear so smoothly.

I look around the clan, some cats finding my stunning sky blue gaze. They are kind of surprised, to say the least. I see Longtail ripping Rusty's collar, and he succeeds in doing it officially breaking the shackles of his twoleg owners.

Bluestar quickly silences the clan and jumps down, to congratulate both of us. "you both did well, I'm surprised." She said, "These 2 are free from their shackles of the twolegs, and they are officially known as..." Bluestar quickly takes a look at me and Rusty. "Firepaw and Winterpaw!" The clan cheers and congratulate us both.

I did it, I really did it...

After a while, me and Firepaw take a tour of the territory and clan for 3 days, learning and all. We both check out some clan cats, and then we find the medicine den... "I'm sure we all know where this is going..." I mindedly say, sighing.

We both go inside, finding spottedleaf. I wave and Firepaw instantly feels a blush creeping up. "Whats with you Firepaw?" I quietly say. "I-I don't know, And I don't care..." Firepaw snorts.

"hello Firepaw and Winterpaw." she approaches us. "Do you need anything?" she gently says. I smell her herb scent a bit, before scooting. "nothing, were touring and all. Who are you again?" I say. "im spottedleaf, Winterpaw." She smiles a bit, and its clear Firepaw is flustered and all. I just walk out with Firepaw. "So Firepaw, we should go hunting for the first time, at least, for you..." Firepaw replies, "sure Zero."

After an hour.

"ugh, I can't believe I have to share a den with these stinkin' kittypets!" Sandpaw snorts, she is also not fond of kittypets. not every clan cat is fond of them. "keep it down sandpaw, im trying to sleep..." I dramatically say. "hey, at least you don't stink, weirdo!" sandpaw says.

I open one eye, unamused. "Yeah, is it because I'm not always with twolegs and I'm always outside, despite my good friend here?" I say, looking at the sleeping Firepaw. Sandpaw just snickers and goes to her own nest in this apprentice den. I suddenly snap my eyes open, catching a rock in front of my face. "Yo, who just threw this rock?" I look at Dustpaw and Sandpaw. I roll my eyes, throwing the rock back to their paws. I turn around, sleeping again, grumbling. The apprentices who were awake are surprised from that reaction... I'm a special case, thats for sure... Sandpaw was very hintly blushing from my skills, but shakes it away. "Sandpaw, that was pretty cool, not gonna lie." Ravenpaw said, half sleeping, and then I fell into a good nights sleep.

I wake up in a dream...
