Slight's pov

I woke up to still feel Smokepaw lying next to me, his chest slowly moving up and down with his breathing I yawned and sat up, licking my paw and running it over my ear. I looked over to were Sparrowpaw and Mistpaw were sitting and talking to each other, we share a nest with each other, tonight I'm sharing with Mistpaw. She talks all night, help me. I nudge Smokepaw awake, he tiredly sat up and stretched before his morning energy kicked in and he became wide awake. "Come on Slaightpaw, let's go out and say hi to everyone" he said technically  bouncing up and down as he waited for me. "I'm coning, I'm coming" I get up and walk out of the den, the the black spotted white tomcat following after me. "Slaightpaw, were going to train with Mistpaw, Sparkpaw, and Rainpaw" Moonfur says coming up to me. Sense my littermates and I are the only kits lately besides Sparkpaw and Rainpaw, were the only apprentices, the last litter which was Suntail and Ashleaf, just became warriors two moons before we became apprentices, and we don't have any kits on the way so we are the youngest. I follow Moonfur, Mistpaw by my side, I saw Sparkpaw and Rainpaw ahead of me before sneaking away, I followed them without anyone noticing. They came to a twoleg den, over the wooden gate sat a dark gray tomcat, it must be there father considering Jaggedclaw didn't seem like there rightful father unlike he is to Suntail and his sister. I went back to Mistpaw is side and began to think about this, Thundertail is first litter was to Suntail and Ashleaf, there father was Jaggedclaw, but then something happened and they aren't mates anymore. Two moons later Sparkpaw and Rainpaw are born, maybe the tom was there father. I give it up when we come to the training hollow. I sit down beside Rainpaw as Mistpaw and Sparkpaw are being taught battle moves. I see Rainpaw look at me and smile. "Do you think we will ever get this down?" he asks me, for the first time talking to me sense I was a tiny kit, I barely even remembered his voice. "I'm not sure, Honeyfur said it wasn't to hard, why?" I ask, his eyes were still focused on his brother. "I don't feel like it's what I wan't, i'v always been the easy brother, maybe I could become Mintheart is apprentice" Mintheart is a light brown she-cat with a black tailtip and minty green eyes, she's our medicine cat. "I though Jaggenclaw said medicine cat's are week and that he'd be disappointed if you became one" he shrugged. "Who cares what he thinks, I'm gonna ask tonight" I nod and go up with Rainpaw. After we learned some basics we were finally able to go back to camp. "Rainpaw some with me to the river" I asked. I already asked Mistpaw and she said no along with Sparrowpaw, Smokepaw was already waiting for me but Moonfur said she wanted one other cat with us just in case something happens. "Alright i'm coming" we walked in silence. When we got to the river I carefully walked into the shallow part of the water, letting it look like it was carrying my fur away. Rainpaw sat next to me and Smokepaw was already completely in the water, kicking and swimming with all his might, trying not to drown considering we have never really swam before. I smiled, watching as he kept his head high. "He'll be doing this for awhile so we should probably rest" I said as my laid down in the grass, falling asleep.
