Whoosh

<sub>The small body of Twilightstar lay curled up in her mossy nest, in her den. She was having a dream, all cats have dreams, it was an odd dream. The whole time everything was black, quite frightening. But, it wasn't a sign from StarClan, just an ordinary dream that the brain produces from past memories. Orbs opening, Twilightstar glanced around her den, all was silent. She lifted her small skull up, her mind rushing back to reality. Twilightstar slowly picked herself off the ground, shaking her jet black pelt off. She gave herself a quick grooming as if to be presentable to her Clan. Twilightstar knew she had no reason to prove herself to the Clan, but didn't want to look like she didn't care about her own hygene. The Clan had been busier lately, and Twilightstar enjoyed it, she hated just sitting around and being lazy, it was completely useless and unnecissary. The ShadowClan leader felt she had something on her mind important, but couldn't remember what exactly it was. "Of course! Foxpaw!" Twilightstar muttered to herself aloud.

Twilightstar emerged from her den, the sun's rays shining on her black pelt, warming it. Ugh! Twilightstar hated that black had to absorb sunlight, she hated when it was hot. The ShadowClanner jumped onto the Jagged Rock with one mighty leap and stepped up to the very tip. "Let all cats of ShadowClan Gather now, it is time for a Clan meeting." Twilightstar's ice-cold voice rang across the clearing, entering every den like liquid. She waited rather impatiently for the Clan to wake up and come out. Twilightstar tilted her head up to the sky and saw the last star from the night before vanishing as the sun rose. StarClan, let it all be ok for the sake of ShadowClan. Twilightstar prayed that prayer to her starry hosts every morning, and ShadowClan were having great luck. She snapped back to the real world and out of fantasy land, the ancient words of the ceremony running through her mind.</sub>

As she was about to dose off into the mysteries of dreams, she heard her leaders voice rang through the warriors den. She heaved herslef up, and made her way to Jagged Rock. She made her way through the crowd of cats arriving and sat at the base of te rock like all the deputys did. Then she waited to see what was going on, and what Twilightstar was about to say.

Foxpaw padded into the camp with a plump vole and blackbird clamped firmly in his jaws. A moment after he had sat the fresh kill on the pile he had overheard the loud yowl of his leader Twilightstar. Foxpaw bounded over to a she cat that looked like and older replica of himself. But everytime he looked at the beautiful she cat known as Spottedfire an image of his mother flashed throughout his memory.

Twilightstar looked down upon her Clan, gaze fixated on Spottedfire first. The pretty she-cat was always ready to do anything, and Twilightstar appreciated it. Her gaze swiveled to Foxpaw, he was calmly sitting near Spottedfire. She took a deep breath, and mentally went over the words of this precious ceremony. Twilightstar did not want to get it wrong, that was one of the worst things she could've done. "Foxpaw, I believe it is time you have yourself a new mentor." Twilightstar mewed, "Spottedfire, you're ready for an apprentice, you shall be the new mentor of Foxpaw. I trust you will pass on all you know to young Foxpaw." The leader called, she was confident Spottedfire would train Foxpaw into a strong, loyal warrior of ShadowClan. Twilightstar flashed an unexpected grin at Foxpaw, showing, white, pointed teeth. She began the ceremonial chant of Foxpaw's name. "Foxpaw! Foxpaw! Foxpaw!" The leader's voice was strong and filled with compassion, she loved warrior ceremonies.

She couldn't believe that she had another apprentice! There were so many other warriors to choose from, but it was her leaders decision, so she would do it. She went over to Foxpaw and placed her muzzle on his forehead. She waited for him to lick her shoulder. As Twilightstar called out the chanting of his name,he joined in quietly," Foxpaw, Fowpaw."

Foxpaw gracefully bowed his head and licked Spottedfire's shoulder. A glow of pride swirled through his mind and his glowing green eyes lit a green flame. His ginger colored haunches wiggled in excitement and he could hardly control himself. Foxpaw looked up at his beautiful leader and a new respect crawled it's way through his heart. He smiled reveiling small razor white teeth.

She looked at her newly apprentice and meowed," Well, first off, lets explore the territory. How does that sound Foxpaw?" She put her tail on his shoulder and waited for a reply.

[foxpaw]

"Yay"Foxpaw yowled and he twisted around into a half circle chasing his long ginger tail. Then he trotted forward and touched noses with Spottedfire. "Wait"Foxpaw said and he stopped in his tracks. Foxpaw raced up the trunk of the tree and sat beside Twilightstar. "Thank you Twilightstar, I thank you dearly"Foxpaw purred and he pushed his ginger muzzle into her fur. He sat there starring at the leader and then raced down the tree trunk. Energy surging through his paws. He looked up and truely respected Twilightstar. "Ready"Foxpaw said to his pretty mentor.

_{Twilightstar blinked in surprise as Foxpaw rested his muzzle in her pelt, she usually didn't see Foxpaw be that, well, that way She didn't know how to explain it, but that didn't matter. Twilightstar could feel her heart warming with pride and happiness. "You're very welcome, I'm glad you're happy." The leader purred softly with a tone she rarely used. "Now, go out and train and do your best!" She mewed with mock stern in her voice. She smiled as she realized how much Foxpaw appreciated his mentor. "This Clan meeting is over." Twilightstar jumped off the Jagged Rock and landed gracefully on the dirt below her. Her icey-blue gaze met Foxpaw's gaze for a moment, eyes sparkling with pride.}
