Day of the Dawn

Chapter 3

It was the first day of the young apprentice's training, she Dawnfeather decided to show Icepaw around. After they got back they were both exhausted and ate together.

"What will we do tomorrow?" asked Icepaw

"We will go hunting and help WhiteCloud gather herbs," replied Dawnfeather " we will need as many supplies as we can carry if we want to make it through the day of the Dawn"and is

"Day of the Dawn?" asked Icepaw.

"Day of the Dawn is the day after the first gathering of the year, which is only less than a moon away"

"Why do we have to get ready for it?"

"Starclan predicted that there would be a war between the clans on the Day of the Dawn, so we have been spending many moons trying to prepare for that day. I'm gonna go on a hunting patrol, why don't you get your rest, you'll need it"

"Okay Dawnfeather" Icepaw said quietly as she walked away.

The next day Dawnfeather awoke to the cold Leaf-bare, with Ravenwing besides her.

"Thankfully there hasn't been much snow this Leaf-bare, and the fresh-kill is as plentiful as it would be in New-leaf, but the clan was still on edge about the Day of the Dawn." Dawnfeather said as she was waking her close sister up.

"Ah yes, I don't think we would make it if we had less fresh-kill and all this stress with day of the dawn in a quarter-moon," replied Ravenwing as she sat up, "I think were are all ready, just have to keep checking the borders and catching fresh-kill for the clan."

"Why don't we go on a dawn patrol, it's a great way to wake up and we can catch some fresh-kill on the way there!" added Dawnfeather, "we can bring our apprentices! It will be Icepaw's first patrol!"

Ravenwing agreed and they both got their apprentices and headed off.
