Frostleaf woke up as Specklebreeze kept shaking her. "What?" Frostleaf mumbled groggily.

"Brownstripe wants you for the dawn patrol," she replied.

Frostleaf dragged her tired paws to Grayclaw, who was the leader of the patrol.

"You should be more punctual," Patchheart mewed with a displeased look.

"I will be earlier next time," she puffed in reply.

When Frostleaf and the patrol returned, fuffy white snow began to fall. Patchheart threw some snow at Grayclaw. With a good humored growl he threw it back.

Stormleaf rolled her eyes and said, "Honestly, are you two kits?" Grayclaw ducked his head in embarrassment.

Patchheart didn't look at all embarrassed and playfully tossed it at Stormleaf. She dodged it and cuffed his ear.

"Be more serious!" she scolded. He stopped playing and they returned to camp. Cats were gathering in front of the Highledge.

"What's going on?" Frostleaf asked Goldenfeather.

"Longpaw passed his warrior accessment so he is getting his warrior name," she replied, not taking her eyes off Nightstar.

"Fireclaw, is Longpaw ready to become a warrior?" Nightstar addressed Longpaw's mentor.

"Ready and worthy," Fireclaw replied proudly.

"I, Nightstar, leader of ThunderClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. He has trained hard to understand the ways of your code, and I commend him to you as a warrior in his turn." Nightstar paused.

"Longpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend this Clan, even at the cost of your life?" Nightstar continued.

"I do," Longpaw mewed.

"Then, by the powers of StarClan I give you your warrior name: Longpaw from this moment on, you will now be known as Longdrop. StarClan honors your intelligence and commitment, and we welcome you as a full warrior of ThunderClan."

Longdrop respectfully licked Nightstar's shoulder as the Clan yowled, "Longdrop! Longdrop!"

Frostleaf gave the new warrior a friendly cuff on his ear as he padded towards them.

"Congrats!" Webfoot mewed. Longdrop nodded in acknowledgment and headed off to start his vigil.

That night, Frostleaf fell asleep and found herself in ThunderClan territory. She recognised Tallpines but in front of her is something that she did not know.

"Don't be afraid," a voice said. Frostleaf looked up to see a tom approaching her. "My name is Strikepelt," the tom said. "The former deputy of ThunderClan?" she asked.

Strikepelt nodded. "This will show you your future. The Clan will face troubles, but a pelt of stars and hope will save it. It is better to keep it a secret."

Strikepelt disappeared. Frostleaf felt confused and looked at the rocky structure in front. What pelt of stars?

"What you are seeing is called Rocktip," a voice mewed.

She turned to see a dark tom padding up to her. "I am Shadowfur," the tom introduced. "Remember that Rocktip will replace all forms of Twoleg places in the territory. It will save the Clan!"

Shadowfur and the territory disappeared and Frostleaf found herself back in her mossy nest.

Rocktip is the rocky structure that Frostleaf saw.
