Chapter 3- The Meeting

As the clan gathered around Sweetkit and Lionkit padded up to Tigerstrike and sat down beside her. Sweetkit looked at all the different cats that emerged from the shadows, bushes and tree stumps in awe. 'So many cats, and I get to know all of them,' she thought with excitement.

Finally the noise died down and Wildstar began to speak."Frostpaw and Nightpaw step foward please," she mewed. Frostpaw and a long furred black tom who Sweetkit knew was Nightpaw padded up quietly and sat down. A yellowish cream tom sat beside Frostpaw and a dusty brown tom sat beside Nightpaw.

"Yellowtail and Dustfur, do you both believe that these apprentices have excelled in their warrior training and are ready to become warriors?" Wildstar mewed. "I do," the older toms said in union. "Then by the power of Starclan Frostpaw step foward," she commanded. He stepped forward slowly, his fur groomed and sleek. 'So handsome,' Sweetkit thinks to herself.

"Do you, Frostpaw, understand the warriorcode, and will use it to protect your clan even if it will cost you your life?" she rumbles. "I do," his deep voice mews. " Then by the power of Starclan your name shall be Frostfang, the clan and Starclan as well honors your swiftness and bravery and commends you as a full warrior of Thunderclan." She rests her muzzle on his head and he licks her shoulder. The newly named Frostfang takes a step back as Wildstar calls Nightpaw to step forward.

"Do you, Nightpaw, understand the warrior code, and will use it to protect your clan even if it costs you your life," she asks the jet black tom. "I do," he mews breathlessly. "Then by the power of Starclan your name shall be Nightfall, the clan and Starclan as well honors your strength and courage ️and commends you as a full warrior of Thunderclan." She sets her muzzle on his head and he licks her shoulder.

"Frostfang! Nightfall! Frostfang! Nightfall! Yowls the clan. 'Wow I can't wait to be the best warrior ever,' thinks an excited Sweetkit.

"We also have another naming ceremony for two young kits," mews Wildstar as she looks down on an freshly groomed Blossomkit and Dewkit. "Blossomkit and Dewkit step forward," she commands. "You have reached your sixth moon in your kitship and its time for you to begin you warrior training. From this day forth you will be know as Dewpaw and Blossompaw."

"Raindrop step forward," commands Wildstar. A small blue she cat with a white spot directly between her eyes pads over nervously. "It is time for your first apprentice. You will train Blossompaw, pass on everything Redfrost has taught you." Raindrop squeaks," I will Wildstar," and touches noses with Blossompaw.

"Hawktalon step foward," she commands once more. A large menacing looking tabby strides forward confidently. "It is time for you to take another apprentice. You will train Dewpaw, teach him everything that Thistlethorn taught you," she mews with a slight edge to her tone. "At your wish Wildstar," Hawktalon slightly smirked and the touched noses with Dewpaw. "Dewpaw! Blossompaw! Dewpaw! Blossompaw!" yowled the clan. "Meeting dismissed."

"There's something off about Hawktalon," whispered Sweetkit to Lionkit. "I know even Wildstar was slightly edgy speaking to him in front of the clan," he whispered back.

Lionkit showed Sweetkit the freshkill pile and her mouth watered," I'm sure you're ready to eat some of that," purred Tigerstrike as she rips off mouse meat and throws it to the kits. They both sniff it gingerly and then starts gulping it down. Once done they both yawned tiredly,"time to go to sleep its getting dark," mewed Tigerstrike.

The kits nodded in agreement and shuffled across the clearing and into the nursery. Climbing into their nest, they snuggled up into a soft and sweet smelling Tigerstrike. "I love you my dear kits," she murmurs.
