"Today Stoneclan is accepting three cats as full warriors of the clan; Galaxypaw, Applepaw, and Pinepaw," Stonestar announces as the cats of stoneclan gather in the clearing.
The three apprentices and their mentors push to the front of the crowd.
"Icestorm, Hemlockheart" Stonestar begins, "is this apprentice ready to become a warrior?"
Icestorm nods, "yes, I believe he is."
Stonestar nods, "Galaxypaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code even at the cost of your life?" He mewed.
"I do," Galaxypaw shuffles his paws with excitement.
"Then from this moment on you will be known as Galaxyflame," Stonestar looks over the clearing as the cats begin to chant the name.
"Galaxyflame! Galaxyflame!" The cats call out.
Ceaderstripe takes a deep breath and smiles as she lets it out. Galaxyflame had grown so much since the day she had found him and Star. So many things had changed. She glances down to her belly and more change is to come.
"Flathead" Stonestar summons and the tom steaps forward a bit more, "is this apprentice ready to become a warrior?"
Flathead nods, "yes, she is."
Stonestar nods, "Applepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code even at the cost of your life?"
"I do," Applepaw lifts her chin with confidence.
"Then from this moment on you will be known as Applestripe," Stonestar looks over the clearing as the cats begin to chant the second name.
"Applestripe! Applestripe!" The cats call out.
The she-cat purrs as she struts into the crowd to wait for her sister to gain her warrior name.
"Dawnlight" Stonestar begins, "is this apprentice ready to become a warrior?"
Dawnlight smiles and nods, "she is."
Stonestar nods, "Pinepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code even at the cost of your life?" He mewed.
"I do," Pinepaw nods confidently.
"Then from this moment on you will be known as Pinelight," Stonestar looks over the clearing as the cats begin to chant the final name.
"Pinelight! Pinelight!" The cats call out.
Pinelight runs to join Applestripe with their family and a couple of the other apprentices to chatter excitedly.
As the chanting dies down, cats return to their duties and Ceaderstripe heads back towards the nursery.
"Congrats!" Ceaderstripe purrs as she passes Galaxyflame.
"Thank you Ceaderstripe," the young tom beams with joy.
"Maybe after your vigil you can come visit in the nursery!" Ceaderstripe calls over her shoulder.
"I will!" Galaxyflame calls back.

"Hey Ceaderstripe," Galaxyflame whispers softly into the nursery.
The sunlight flows into the den around Galaxyflame, casting a cat shaped shadow into the den.
"Hey," Ceaderstripe purrs and sits up a bit, "Congrats on your warrior name!"
"Thanks," Galaxyflame smiles, "thanks for bringing my mom and I into this clan."
"No problem," Ceaderstripe smiles back, "I'm so happy I got to watch you grow up."
Galaxyflame just dips his head, "I'm excited for my friends to become warriors."
"That should be soon," Ceaderstripe assures him.
"And soon we'll be apprentices!" Rainkit pops up from Hemlockhearts nest.
Ceaderstripe and Galaxyflame laugh and nod.
"Yep," Ceaderstripe smiles, "and then you'll be warriors!"
Rainkit nods enthusiastically before laying back down with his siblings.
