Chapter Four
Thrushpelt dumped the body in the middle of the clearing. He decided not to eat and confess to Sunstar. I'm a filthy liar anyways.. May as well get it off of my chest... He padded to the leaders den. Sunstar was staring at the wall.
"Sunstar-" he began.
Sunstar snapped. "I said I'll choose a deputy at moonhigh-" he stopped. "Oh. Greetings Thrushpelt.. I thought you where Thistleclaw..." He spat.
"I wanted to inform you Cracklekit had snuck out during battle. I saved her from a horrid fish pelt who acted like he was to eat the kit. I punished her, but I still wanted to let you know." Sunstar nodded in understanding.
"Those kits are brave. They'll be five moons soon. And I must make Tigerpaw a warrior. I might do both ceremonies at the same time." Thrushpelt couldn't help feeling so proud of his kits. He didn't even think they'd survive without their own mother. But they managed okay. Sunstar flicked his tail to dismiss Thrushpelt, and he grabbed a water vole and settled down by the nursery, watching his kits sleep.
"You shall be know as Tigerclaw. Share your strength with ThunderClan." Sunstar finished the warrior ceremony when Tigerclaw licked his shoulder. The Clan stared with excitement as three kits sat down in front of the highrock. Oakkit, the white tom with brown splashes and beautiful ginger-Amber eyes, Cracklekit, the adorable and mischievous she cat with dark grey fur with lighter flecks on her far and back, with commanding cinnamon eyes. Then Cinderkit, she was light grey, with crystal blue eyes. They say, excited.
"Cracklekit, your name is now Cracklepaw. Your mentor will be Thistleclaw." Everyone looked at Thistleclaw, the new deputy of ThunderClan. "Thistleclaw, you trained Tigerpaw and he is an excellent warrior, pass on these traits to Cracklepaw." The two touched noses and Sunstar continued.
"Oakkit. You have shown little interest in becoming a warrior. What do you want to be, young one?" Sunstar asked the kit.
"I.." Oakkit swallowed. "To be a medicine cat." He said with confidence.
"Then you will be apprenticed to Featherwhisker." Featherwhisker and Oakpaw touched noses.
"Cinderkit, you shall be known as Cinderpaw. Adderfang will be your mentor." They touched noses and the meeting was dismissed. Everycat went to their dens because it was late and Tigerclaw sat vigil. Thrushpelt decided it would be best to sit vigil with him, and sat down. Tigerclaw dipped his head and the two toms guarded camp.
