Shadekit stood in front of Nettlestar on top of tall rock and listened to him yowl to the crowd below, his pelt pricking with excitement. "Frostkit,Mistkit, and Shadekit, you have all reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior names, you will be known as Frostpaw, Mistpaw, and Shadepaw. Frostpaw, your mentor will be Amberriver.
Amberriver, you are ready to take on your second apprentice. You will be the mentor of Frostpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her. Teach her how to hold her tongue when necessary, and how to use her energy in a positive way.
Mistpaw, you will be mentored by Owlfeather. Owlfeather, you were taught well by your mentor Stormstrike. I expect you to teach your apprentice everything he taught you. Teach her the meaning of loyalty. You have proven yours well.
Shadepaw, your mentor will be Twistedwillow. Twistedwillow, you were trained well by Lilaccloud. Teach Shadepaw everything she taught you. Teach him how to know right from wrong." As he finished those words cheering broke out among the crowd. "Shadepaw, Frostpaw,Mistpaw!" But as Shadepaw took a step towards his mentor to touch noses with him, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment. He had been hoping for a warrior like Thistledust. A strong, noble warrior who would always come out on top. Why had he got Twistedwillow? Its no fair!Frostpaw's mentor is the deputy, Mistpaw's is the third stronger fighter in the clan, and I get the cat everybody pities? What did I do? Im more of a clan cat than they are. Shadepaw immediately felt guilty.
"Poor luck." Shadepaw heard someone behind him say. He whirled around to see Scorchpaw. "What do you mean?" Shadepaw askes defensively. "Well, you got the weakest cat in the clan as a mentor." "Twistedwillow isnt that bad! Im looking forward to him being my mentor!" Shadepaw lied. Scorchpaw smirked, obviously seeing through his lie. "Whatever you say, Shadepaw...." he said, padding off.
