Songpaw's POV
I saw my mentor say goodbye to her sister also known as my former Clan leader Tawnystar, I looked to my mother Onesplash.
She hisses at me, turning away and walking back into the Nursery taking her unborn kits with her. It was no surprise, yet my heart still felt like it was being torn in half. Ever since ThunderClan found out my secret, no one wanted me. And no one was certainly going to wish me well when I left either.
"Let's get a move on now." Splotchstar growled. She would be my new leader, and surprisingly enough she sounded even more fierce than Tawnystar.
I kept wondering if this Clan would be worse, if there was another she-cat that would show more hatred then Tawnystar and Onesplash. If there was a tom as perverted as Scorchpaw, oh I had desperately hoped not.
I noticed the apprentices of RiverClan as me and my mentor were behind them. There were three of them that seemed proud, especially the orange she-cat that was in the middle. But the rest of the apprentices seemed to tread with a regretful step.
The next day Splotchstar announced two queens expecting kits, and I saw two apprentices appeared shocked. The white tom with black patches stammered and a brown she-cat put her paw over his mouth.
She looked fierce, no doubt about it. But it painfully reminded me about the crush I had on another she-cat named Echopaw. When ThunderClan found out...oh it was so horrible I didn't want to remember. Echopaw was the most mean to me of all after that, so unforgiving...
The brown she-cat looked like my next mistake, so my initial plan was to stay far away from her. But I ended up being right beside them, as they seemed like a very interesting group of apprentices.
"And one more thing, since Amberfern has moved into the Nursery, Jioveheart will be leading the Queen-Napping Patrol to Twolegplace instead. And Stormbright and Songpaw will be joining us." Splotchstar announced. "Pebblebird, Emberstem. Come see me in my den. Clan dismissed."
"Queen-Napping Patrol...?" I stammered. "That doesn't sound good!"
"It's not." the white tom growled. "Our Clan kidnaps expecting queens and she-cats from Twolegplace whenever the Clan number is low."
To save time I would learn the white tom as Flypaw, the brown she-cat I was worried of falling for as Volepaw, and the two other apprentices as siblings Redpaw and Brownpaw.
I was nervous being chosen to help with the Nursery nests with Volepaw and Redpaw, but the latter comforted me about being here. Despite that, I noticed Volepaw glare at Amberfern who was looking on sadly.
Next mistake I would tell myself. She could only be my next mistake
However talking to her seemed inevitable as after the work was done, Redpaw brought us half a fish and split it into thirds with her claws before passing the pieces to us.
The reek of the piece of fish was almost overwhelming, how could RiverClan eat this? The bad smell made me miss the delicious voles back at home.
"Hey...Songpaw right?" Volepaw meowed. I felt my fur shudder, this was the first time she was talking to me. "It smells weird, but taste it. It's not that bad."
I wanted to do whatever she wanted, and if eating fish was one of them, then I would inhale the whole lake of fish if I could. I looked at her and tore a piece of fish and began chewing and was pleasantly surprised that it tasted pretty good.
"This...this actually taste good." I purred.
"See? I figured you would like it." Volepaw meowed. "Soon, you'll learn how to catch them in the water. Hopefully you'll be a good swimmer."
I nodded, not quite looking forward to getting wet. But RiverClan was my new home, and I definitely didn't want to go back to ThunderClan.
As night was approaching, I went to the apprentice's den and saw Redpaw and Flypaw sleeping together while her brother Brownpaw was close by. And sleeping just a little distance from them was Volepaw.
Looking irresistible, I couldn't help but walk towards her. She looked peaceful, and it made my heart flutter. Then I realized what I was thinking and walked over regretfully to sleep with the other apprentices.
"Oh StarClan." I winced, not wanting to get close to her. After all, I was already falling. Hard.
