"Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. We are going to miss the other apprentices warrior ceremony!" Birdpaw groaned she looked up expecting to see her brother, but it was her new friend Leafpaw. He had talked to her one day they trained together.
She yawned and padded out of the den the sun so bright made her black striped dark. Leafpaw glanced over as she stretched, "Are you coming, mouse-brain?" She nodded and padded over and say next to him and her brother. Lionstar's deep voices echoed, "Let all cats old enough gather here beneath me for a clan meeting!" Cats with all different pelt colors gathered in the center, "We are gathered here today for Dapplepaw, Harepaw, Runningpaw, and Dewpaw. I have watched them grow and I believe they will make fine warriors. Dapplepaw stand by me please....... I believe my apprentice is ready to become a warrior! Do you Dapplepaw promise to uphold the warrior code and defend your clan even at the cost of your life?" She looked as though she would burst with pride, "I certainly will." Lionstar nodded, "Then by the power Starclan has invested in me you will be now known as Dapplewind. Now, for Harepaw. Come here please......... Dustwing do you believe he is ready to become a warrior?" Dustwing looked around, "Of course." Lionstar nodded, "Harepaw from this moment on you will be known as Hareclaw!" Everyone cheered, but Lionstar silenced them, " I am not through. Runningpaw come stand by me please.......... Patchpelt do you believe he is ready to become a warrior?" Patchpelt purred, "Yes, he seems quite devoted!" "Then from this moment on he will be known as Runningbreeze. Last but not least, Dewpaw come up here........ Honeyfur, do you believe Dewpaw is ready to become a warrior?" The small golden she-cat piped up, "I do." Lionstar glanced over the crowd, "Then from this moment on Dewpaw will be Dewfeather. We welcome you all as full members of Thunderclan! Clan dissmissed!" The crowd cheered Dapplewind! Hareclaw! Runningbreeze! Dewfeather!
Leafpaw looked over at Birdpaw who was in a hunting crouch. She was stalking the small brown body of a shrew. Birdpaw locked eyes with him What does he want? He looked away and nodded towards the Shadowclan border. WHAT DOES HE WANT?! Finally, she scented Shadowclan. She stood up from her crouch and padded over to the source of he putrid smell. She looked down Shadowclan had crossed the border! She even had proof there were feather on the ground with Shadowclan's scent! Birdpaw then heard a hiss, "Shu' up yoor gonna give us an dis' hidin' spot away! Ya flea-ridden pest!" She and Leafpaw padded over to the bush. There lay a small black she-cat with a bundle of kittens at her stomach, "Please don' hurt me. The father of me kittens lef' us. He din'd return! Please. Oh. Please help us!" Leafpaw shrugged and Birdpaw spoke for the both of them, "We will take you to our leader." She looked up gratitude express in the depths of her blue eyes, "Oh, I thank tha' botha' ya! I don' know what I'd do! My name is Midnight by da' way!" Birdpaw nodded and padded back to camp each cat holding a kitten.
