Moons had past and clawkit had turned 5 moons only a few sunrises ago.
The clan was getting much stronger as a few new cats had joined to start the clan striving.
At about dawn while clawkit was just waking Yellowstar the Leader of the clan padded up to were Clawkit was laying with a mouse at his paws in front of the nursery.
“Clawkit lets go for a walk. A long walk all the way around the whole territory .” His father beyond.
“The whole thing?That sounds far..” Clawkit shuddered “Well you haven't been all the way around the whole thing so you wouldn't know.” Yellowstar gazed at him with childish big yellow eyes and funny movements. Clawkit breathed in “OK” he mewed and stud up his peer black pelt shinned in the suns light and Yellowstar and his son set out for the entirence of the camp were they saw birdjay, clawkits mother watching the trees for any signs of cats or danger.
“Birdjay, I'm taking Clawkit with me on patrol.” yellowstar mewed to his mate.
She grunted “I don't care what you do with him.” Her pelt just like clawkits blew in the wind as she spoke.
“Well OK,lets go clawkit” Yellowstar started to pad off and clawkit looked at birdjay.
Why are you so mean? He thought but he had to take under consideration that she may have a reason.
He started to run after his father.
“Clawkit,there are many dangerous things out there you must promise me you will not run off.”
Yellowstar began as he approached.
“Yes sir!” Clawkit tripped over a twig.
“Please Keep up as well I don't need any Birds getting to you while I've got my back turned.”
Clawkit got up and started to jog next to yellowstar he was much faster.
“So is this all were going to be doing all day?” clawkit asked.
“absolutely not!We are going to talk and I'm planning to bring you on walks everyday tell your an apprentice.”Yellowstar purred
“But I'm not an apprentice so why?” Clawkit asked grumpy like his mother useless talks.
“Don't give me that tone, you are not your mother and your walking kits can go on walks.” Yellowstar hissed.
Clawkit put his head down and shook it hard then looked back at his dad.
Yellowstar golden yellow eyes trailed off. ”She wasn't always like that.” he then began walking again and clawkit sped up.
“so what happened”he mewed hoping he didn't say the wrong thing.
Yellowstar looked at him “It started when she was young,she had a clan yellowclan the same as mine.
And my father was leader off the clan his name was Brightstar and he died saving me from a two-legeds.
These Two-legeds were,well quite weird they weren't on there horses like usually they had there fire sticks and stuff...they were raiding are territory and capturing us in wooden boxes,it was like they new we were there. Every night one by one we would disappear tell there was only about 6 of us left.
Birdjay,Brightstar, Deathdragon and I were the ones to see what was going on. Each one off us saw a cat being captured but deathdragon couldn't take it anymore,once his mother was captured so he left..We didn't blame him and so we were to set out the other way the next morning but Brightstar on his last life was on ends and so that night we took shifts so we would now when they came. Me and birdjay were watching for the two-leged..”yellowstar started to tear. “A whole crowd of two-legeds swarmed in and me and birdjay panicked. She already had lost all her kin and all she had was me..what could I do.
Me and her watched my dad be carried away sleeping. We fallowed the crowd tell they reached the place were there was many many dead bodies every were. WE..we watched them rip brightstar from the cage and hang him. I got to say last word.” Clawkit was horrified. Yellowstar just looked away.
“it wasn't like I had a muff problems as it was... “ Yellowstar mumbled.
“Anyways She didn't want a clan. She wanted a family and I gave her one..Blackkit. He sadly died,
fell of a mountain. It was really depressing and birdjay loved him. So I guess from here to there and back she just started hearing young cats as living thing you just didn't wanna know.” Yellowstar mewed.
They started talking about the warrior code and the next gathering and how clawkit will be tested before he becomes an apprentice on how well he knows the area and borders.
Finely padding along the river slowly the sun going down over the trees.
They walked for a while silently just thinking off the day they were having together.
They finely approached a den it was quite open on the river filled high with fluffy moss and feathers.
It had a well stocked pile of fresh-kill by it and a black tom was padding around with a bunch off herbs . “A cat!” Clawkit mewed and the cat just turned his head.
“Is that who I think it is?” The cat asked surprised.
“Yep that's him!” Yellowstar mewed and the black tom laid the herbs down and padded over quickly.
“Hello!” He mewed thrilled to see clawkit.
“um..Hi” clawkit replied.
“My name is deathdragon and this is my home starclan's den!I'm sure you've herd off me” Deathdragon mewed and ran over to his herbs,he quickly but them in his mouth and ran into his den. Several moments later he yald “come in” and yellowstar and clawkit padded in to a medium sized den that had many little holes that had herbs and shells and all this stuff you'd pick up.
“wow..” clawkit looked around it was pretty sweet “I collect stuff!See look over here at this! He flicked his tail to a hole in the back corner, it was glowing lots of colors and had stacked of small logs by it that must have been pushed in.
Clawkit approached the hole and in it was fire,he had herd of it but this fire was well contained.
“would you like to feed it?”deathdragon asked and clawkit pushed a log into the flame at the bottom of the hole,It lit up and sparked but was to far down to get anywhere.
“wow that's so cool can I do it again?” clawkit asked and deathdragon shook his head.
“I don't wanna feed it to much,it took me a long time to find such a rare creature. If it goes out it will get cold and I will freeze..” Deathdragon mewed.
“but you have fur..” Clawkit mewed “Yes and no I only have fur on the outside. I sadly lost all the fur on my belly.” Deathdragon smiled
“Would you guys care for some food and water?” deathdragon asked and pointed to a big tub of water.
Clawkit stared were did you get that?” he asked.
“it washed up and I filled it with water! See it has these spiny things and a two-leged killing...I mean string attached.” clawkit shot him a sympathetic look and deathdragon gave yellowstar a glance.
“We must be going soon but deathdragon if you ever feel lonely you can always come see clawkit and I know clawkit will wanna come back.” Yellowstar got up from were he was sitting in the well padded nest by the wall.
“Good by clawkit.” deathdragon mewed “You have gotta be the best stalked loner in the world!” clawkit was looking at a little box that was clear and seemed to make clawkit look like he had may eyes
“lets go.” yellowstar mewed and nodded good bye to deathdragon. He picked clawkit up by the scuff and walked out. It was kinda chilly out off the den. “Its getting dark we better finish quickly.”
Yellowstar mewed and he set down clawkit.
“Bye!”Clawkit showed and yellowstar rolled his eyes.
They quickly padded to the last area they would walk today.
They padded on word tell clawkit screeched
“My pads hurt!” He wined “were almost to camp don't start now.” yellowstar looked at him and then clawkit looked up.
“who's there!” he mewed and and saw a black shape appear out off no were.
Yellowstar hissed and the cat addressed herself. “Hello,I am wolfshadow.”
“uh hi?”clawkit mewed and yellowstar shot him a glance “what do you want” Yellowstar hissed.
“I herd about a clan that was excepting cats and I've bumped into much trouble..some cat name Spitstar?” Wolfshadow mewed.
“OK,shes cool. Hello I am yellowstar leader off yellowstar. I would like you to know clan life's not easy and the choice you will be making will stick with you for the rest of your life.” Yellowstar mewed.
“Well I currently lost an apprentice and well I just wanna join a clan.” Wolfshadow muttered
“OK come on.” Yellowstar smiled and pointed his head in the direction they were headed and so they went back to the camp.
That night wolfshadow slept in the warriors den next to birdjay.
Clawkit slept in the dark nursery. He needed to change his bedding it was pretty gross.
Clawkit just laid and watched the moon tell he fell asleep...
“Clock it!Clock it!Hello!” A voice mewed
“huh?I'm sleeping leave me alone..” Clawkit muttered he was exhausted.
“Well to bad get up.” The voice mewed and Clawkit sat up and opened his eyes to see a strange place..no one was there and all he could make out was a faint light and a pool to his left. There was also a tinny leg were the light was coming from he started to walk up the hill to the top were the light was but randomly he was suddenly in the pool off water. Drowning!
“clock it I hope you had good sleep last night because that was your last,”
“My name is clawkit not clock it!” clawkit gargled
“whatever clock it!”
“Clock it!clock it!clock it! clock it!”
It mewed and clawkit awoke to the sound off yellowstar. It was well past sun high.
“ Lilyfrost,Wolfshadow,and vivid please come forward.." Yellowstar deep mew rang out and he called.
"ALL Cats Young and old please join beneath the great Tree for a clan meeting!" all the cats gathered.
Clawkit walked over to were birdjay was sitting.
They all settled and the meeting began.
"I Yellowstar call a pawn are warrior ans esters to look down a pawn these cats! Wolfshadow,Lilyfrost.
Do you promise to protect and defend this clan even at the cost of your lives?" Yellowstar asked looking up and then down.
"I do" Wolfshadow and Lilyfrost mewed.
"Then by the power of starclan resting in me I give you your warrior names Lilyfrost form this moment on you are Lilyfrost" Yellowstar mewed
“he doesn't now all the proper words.” birdjay muttered to clawkit.
Clawkit chuckled and birdjay smacked him over the head he quickly stopped.
"Wolfshadow From this moment forth you will be wolfshadow!" Yellowstar mewed.
"OK Vivid you choose to Keep your name well, Vivid do you promise to heal and protect this clan at the cost of your life and to be there for even the sickest of cats?" Yellowstar asked.
"i do" vivid mewed.
"Vivid I am no medical cat and even though I do posses knowings of the way of herbs I can not give you your full name. We will leave it up to starclan to re fur it to you or stait it but for now we will cheer"
Yellowstar was never been told what to do if a med cat became a cat of the clan with out another medical cat.
"OK then by the power vested in me I bring My clan strength,happiness,and forever gratitude to have these three cats! Please welcome them!" Yellowstar mewed.
"lilyfrost!vivid!wolfshadow!vivid!wolfshadow!lilyfrost!" The other 2 cats mewed.
And the meeting was finished.
Once the announcement was over Clawkit wondered were the other 2 cats had come from..
Clawkit wanted to be friends with three new cats so he bounced up to the his fluffy smallness as his charm.
"hi! I'm clawkit!" He charmed.
Clawkit looked at the deputy and new he had maid a new friend.
He also wondered why he was so energetic when he had gotten no sleep,but even though his nightmare hunted him he seemed very happy to be patrolling again today..
