Ceremonies

Wonderstar leaped gracefully branch to branch as her long legs pushed off from one to another. Her claws made little sound on the soft bark of the oak tree. Her tealy blue gaze swept around the clearing. She smiled down at her clan happily, even though they were sluggish at best and never really did anything other than eat and sit alone. 


"All cats old enough to catch their own prey join for a clan meeting beneath high branch!" Her voice flowed around the clearing, her voice attracting cats like a SIREN. Her blue eyes seemed to almost tear as she looked over her clan, a fresh scar marked her cheek, a long pinkish indent in her once perfect face. If only her clan knew why she had it...


"I Think it is time for Cloudpaw, Swiftpaw, and Heavypaw to be made warriors! I, Wonderstar leader of ForestClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on these apprentices . They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as a warriors in their turn." The three looked up at Wonderstar with gleaming eyes. 


"Cloudpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your clan, even at the cost of  your life?" Cloudpaw's eyes stared up at her with their crystal beauty, compassion gleaming inside them. 


"I do." She dipped her head graciously.


"Then by the powers of StarClan I give you your warrior name, Cloudpaw, from this moment on you will be known as Cloudspinner. StarClan honors your compassion and your skills as a hunter and fighter and we welcome you as a full warrior of ForestClan." Cloudspinner stepped away, back to her apprentice friends. 


"Heavypaw and Swiftpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your clan, even at the cost of  your life?" The toms eyes seemed to reflect each-others ambitions, and strengths. 


"We do." They dipped their heads. 


"Then by the powers of StarClan I give you your warrior name,Swiftpaw, from this moment on you will be known as Swiftblizzard. StarClan honors your speed and cunning and we welcome you as a full warrior of ForestClan.  Heavypaw, from this moment on you will be known as Heavyrumble. StarClan honors your strength and your heart and we welcome you as a full warrior of ForestClan." Both the toms stepped away from their leader, in line with Cloudspinner.


CLOUDSPINNER! SWIFTBLIZZARD! HEAVYRUMBLE! CLOUDSPINNER! SWIFTBLIZZARD! HEAVYRUMBLE!

Oakpaw and Blazepaw cheered for the new warriors, and their old den-mates.

Bumblestep blinked a bit, and looked at the new warriors. He gave them a smile, and then sat down alone.

Her teeth bared in rage, she was much older than Cloudspinner! And a better 'warrior'! She turned on her claws and slipped out of camp.
-Nightpaw

She flashed a brilliant smile and padded to the warriors, and her old mentor.
-Cloudspinner

Bumblestep noticed Nightpaw run out, and he decided to talk to her later. He smiled at Cloudspinner. "Congradulations on becoming a warrior."

She blushed, showing hints of pink her her pure white fur. "Thanks, but I couldn't have done it without you." Her eyes held thanks. She sat to lick her paw.

Quickpaw and Creampaw cheered for their former den-mates.

He nodded, then padded into the forest in pursuit of NIghtpaw.

She looked after him, she sighed and stood and padded off, her tail a little lower than before.

"Congratulations!" He yowled as loud as he could for his former denmates.
~Stonepaw

"Congrats." She meowed not yowling like her littermate. She had grown to like Heavyrumble and Swiftblizzard and she liked having them in the apprentices den but she had to wait until she too was a warrior so she could talk to the inseperable toms. She then glanced at Wonderstar. Was her leader mouse-brained? Did she totally forget about Nightpaw? Both she-cats had been in ForestClan before her brother and her had arrived. "Shouldn't they be made warriors together too?" She wondered aloud.
