Apprentice...

Moonstar stood atop the Great Boulder and looked down fondly at her clan. It has grown so much... "All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the Great Boulder for a clan meeting," she called. When everyone was gathered, she looked down. "Snowkit!" When the young cat padded forward, she continued. "This is a proud day for HawkClan, by naming apprentices we show that our clan will survive and remain strong. Snowkit, from now on until you receive your warrior name you will be known as Snowpaw. Starshine, you are ready for an apprentice, you will be Snowkit's mentor. I know you will pass on your strength, wisdom and power to Snowpaw, and teach him the skills that will make him a brave warrior of Hawkclan."


As Starshine stepped forward to touch noses with the small tom, Moonstar and all of the clan raised their voices. "Snowpaw! Snowpaw! Snowpaw!"
