4 moons later.

Stripestar's familiar voice rang out over the clearing. "May all the cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the pointed rock for a clan meeting!" Foxshade pricked his ears at the sound. He yawned and padded out of the warrior den to join the mass of cats gathering beneath the rock. He saw Sandfur nudging Mousekit and Flamekit towards the rock. Their fur was neatly groomed and eyes glimmered with excitement. Foxshade settled next to Greyear, watching the young cats and remembering when he was that age. Stripestar gestured his tail to the kits. "Mousekit from now on until you receive your warrior name you shall be known as Mousepaw, Gingerheart will be your mentor." The two touched noses. "Flamekit from now on until you receive your warrior name you shall be known as Flamepaw, Foxshade will be your mentor." Foxshade stepped forward, he was still surprised that Stripestar had chose him when there were so many older cats that didn't have an apprentice. He touched noses with Flamepaw and saw excitement blazing in his eyes. Flamepaw would make an amazing warrior.

Foxshade ran through the forest. Buds were beginning to bloom on the trees. Flamepaw ran behind him, panting slightly. Foxshade signaled with his tail for a stop. Flamepaw skidded to a halt. "Why are we stopping?" He asked.
"Smell." Ordered Foxshade.
Flamepaw obliged, opening his mouth and drawing in the smell around them. "I smell other cats!" He announced.
"That's because we are on the border of RockClan." Foxshade explained, remembering when he had been here for the first time so many moons ago. "You have to be careful, this is the Thunderpath. Monsters go along these paths with twolegs in their belly." Flamepaw listened intently eyes wide. "A monster could ease crush a cats spine." Foxshade warned.
"So, there are 4 clans." Flamepaw meowed.
"Yep, do you know all of them?" Foxshade remarked the border before turning to look at his apprentice. "Well, there's OakClan, obviously, RockClan, MapleClan and, umm..." Flamepaw struggled to remember. "Oh, SunClan!" He wrapped his tail around his paws and looked at Foxshade for confirmation. Foxshade nodded. "Yup! Now, lets move on." He gestured with his tail for Flamepaw to follow him.

After a while of walking they arived at the Tree bridge. "This is an old oak that got struck by lightning many and moons ago. SunClan use it to cross to get to the The Three Stones. We won't have time to go there today though." Foxshade glanced at the sky. It was past sunhigh already. "Lets head back for now. Tomorrow we'll tackle some fighting moves." Foxshade turned to head back to camp. Flamepaw followed right behind him.

As they got back Dustkit and Frostkit came tumbling out of the nursery. Dustkit's had brown, orange fur. Frostkit had white fur with grey paws. Dustkit tripped and fell against Foxshade. "S-sorry!" He squeaked. Foxshade nudged him back onto his paws. "Shouldn't you be in the nursery?"
"We got to explore the camp!" Dustkit announced. Foxshade noticed that Fluffytail tail was watching the kits closely, eyes narrowed. He padded over to her. "Something up?"
"Hmm? Oh, no nothing. Just thinking." She stood heading back towards her den. Foxshade watched her closely. He could feel something in the air. It felt like a storm was waiting to break lose and wreak havoc in the clans.

Short chapter again...sorry😅
Also, I added a map of the territories in the intro if you want to know how they look.
