Life 1
Chapter 1
A tiny tabby kit laid in a nest made off moss, when a big black kit jumped on top of the tiny kit. "Wake up!" The black kit yowled. The tiny kit jumped to his paws and stared at the black kit. "What is it?" The tiny kit asked, his green eyes wide with alarm. "We are going to become apprentices today, Fallenkit!" The black meowed happily. "I can't believe it's finally time, Moonkit!" The tiny kit meowed. Moonkit is eight moons old and should have been an apprentice a while ago, but stayed a kit so that Fallenkit wouldn't be alone. Fallenkit is the only one in his litter that survived a dog attack. "Come on, we don't want to be late!" Moonkit raced out of the nursery, Fallenkit followed. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather around!" Redstar yowled from the middle of camp. Moonkit and Fallenkit sat down a few tail lengths away from him. "It is time Riverclan has more apprentices, Moonkit, Fallenkit, step forward. " Moonkit and Fallenkit did as they were told. Fallenkit's whiskers trembled with excitement. "Moonkit from now on, until your warrior name you will be known as Moonpaw. Owlwing it is time you had an apprentice, teach him your wisdom and courage." Redstar rested his paw on Moonpaw's head. "I will." Owlwing dipped his head to Redstar then turned to Moonpaw and touched noses with the black apprentice. "Fallenkit, from now on, until your warrior name, you will be known as Fallenpaw. Rosespots it is time you had another apprentice teach him your skills and wisdom." Redstar meowed and rested his paw on Fallenpaw's head. Oh no! Not Rosespots! Fallenpaw thought as the older black and white she-cat walked forward. Rosespots was very strict and had a weird connection with Redstar, that Fallenpaw didn't really know about. "I will." Rosespots touched noses with Fallenpaw. "Moonpaw! Fallenpaw! Moonpaw! Fallenpaw!" Their clanmates cheered. Soon they quieted down and went back to their duties. "What are we going to do first?" Moonpaw asked excitedly. "Patrol the territory." Owlfeather answered. "Can we go too?" Fallenpaw asked Rosespots. "No we are doing something else." Rosespots shook her head. Fallenpaw watched Moonpaw and his mentor walk out of camp. "What are we doing instead?" Fallenpaw asked. "We are going to get the elders new bedding and get rid of the old bedding." Rosespots explained. "Ok." Fallen meowed, tried to hind his disappointment and followed Rosespots to the moss rock right outside of camp.
