The Longest Leaf Bare

Chapter 4

As they walked back into the raincaln camp they met with a border patrol including Beetlewing,Toadclaw,and Brownpaw."Hey"said Beetlewing to Autumnheart "where is everyone else""Right here"said Moonpelt emerging from the bushes with bluepaw,who had two squirrels and a crow hanging from his jaws.Berrytooth licked her paw and rubbed it against a piece of fur that was sticking up on Bluepaw.They came through the bracken to see Birchstar atop the Highbranch were clan meetings were held"Guess its already started"said Turtledove"You ready Autumnheart"
she gulped "I hope so"Birchstar leaned out to the cats and called Hollytwig's three kits up."Petalkit you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Petalpaw Your mentor will be Possumpelt I hope Possumpelt will pass down all she knows on to you
Now Possumpelt
she stepped forward with slight hesitance but then quickly trotted to the oak tree
Possumpelt, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Crowtalon and you have shown yourself to be smart and noble. You will be the mentor of Petalkit and I expect you to pass on all you know to Petalpaw
Possumpelt touched her nose to Petalkit's who tried to hide a purr of delight and they both walked to the back of the crowd
"Now Dewkit"Birchstar said signaling to the young tom"Dewkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Dewpaw Your mentor will be Autumnheart I hope Autumnheart will pass down all she knows on to you
Autumnheart please step forward"
Slowly She came to stand next to Dewpaw.Autumnheart you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Greyfang who is no longer here and you have shown yourself to be strong and courageous. You will be the mentor of Dewkit and I expect you to pass on all you know to Dewkit
Autumnheart turned to Dewkit who was staring at her with barely contained excitement.They touched noses and sat next to Possumpelt and Petalpaw"And finally Pondkit,you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Pondpaw Your mentor will be Ivorypelt. I hope Ivorypelt  will pass down she knows on to you.
Come forward Ivorypelt"
the medicine cat came and put her tail around Pondpaw's body purring with satisfaction
Ivorypelt you are and you have shown yourself to be helpful and healing You will be the mentor of Pondpaw and I expect you to pass on all you know to Pondpaw. They touched noses and Autumnheart heard Ivorypelt whisper to Pondpaw"You are doin great " The cats of the clan began to shout the three  apprentices new names.Pondpaw,Petalpaw,Dewpaw.
