"By naming apprentices, we show that RiverBreezeClan will survive and remain strong!" Hawkstar yowled.

"Frostkit, from now on you will be known as Frostpaw. Smokeclaw you mentored Roseleap well and she now uses her strength and dignity in being a queen. Smokeclaw since Frostpaw is your daughter make sure you are not soft on her. You will be her mentor Smokeclaw." Hawkstar's mew rang throughout the clan.

"Frostpaw! Frostpaw! Frostpaw!" The clan cheered.

"Hey Frostkit," Mosspaw teased.

"It's Frostpaw now," Frostpaw retorted.

"It's ok Frostpaw not ALL of us are as mean as Grumpypaw here!" Foxpaw joked.

Mosspaw hissed and stormed off.

"Its okay Frostpaw, Mosspaw is just jealous that your mentor is your own father," Honeyclaw added.

" Yeah I guess," Frostpaw sighed.

"Frostpaw do you want to go explore the territory?" Smokeclaw asked her.

"Yeah sure Smokeclaw," she replied seeming distant.

"Whats wrong?" he asked.

"Its just only Foxpaw understands the way I feel," Frostpaw siged.

"Well I think you just need a territory expidition and then a little hunting practice and you should be back to your old self!" Smokeclaw purred.

"Hooray!!!!" she mewed.

"...And here is the training tree. Notice how its near a soft patch of moss and a slow moving river?" Smokeclaw meowed.

"Ya." Frostpaw replied.

"Well thats because plenty of apprentices cant climb too well and thay always fall off the branches." Smokeclaw replied.

"I will NEVER fall out of the tree!!" Frostpaw lifted her chest with pride.

"Good because you will get to climb to the second branch." Smokeclaw said hoping to make her happy.

"Yes!!!! I'll show Mosspaw that I'm better than him!!!" Frostpaw yowled with glee.

"Alright I'll give you a boost." Smokeclaw offered.

"Thanks I wouldnt be able to get up on my own." Frostpaw thanked her father/mentor.

As Frostpaw was climbing up her hind paws slipped and she fell.

"Frostpaw!!!!' Smokeclaw yowled.

"I's ok dad, I'm fine." she answered quietly.

"I'm going to get you to Shadowclaw's den as fast as I can." he said as he scooped her up.

"Dad no need to fuss over me! I'm fine." She hissed.

"Frostpaw your flank is bleeding. You need to be tended to." he ordered.

"Fine take me then," she retorted.

"Alright up you go," Smokeclaw mewed.

As Smokeclaw was carrying her back to camp, a pair of golden eyes was watching.
