Fishpaw's Ceremony

[//Morningstar//<3]

(sorry, minor power playing here. Just doesn't seem right without it.)


"I, Morningstar , leader of RiverClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. He have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as a warrior in His turn." Morningstar looked down at Fishpaw, "Fishpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and fend this Clan, even at the cost of your lives?"

Fishpaw nodded his head eagerly

"I do."


"Then by the powers of StarClan I give you your warrior name, Fishpaw, from this moment on, you will be known as Fishclaw. StarClan honors your bravery and your strength, and we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan."

Morningstar reached down to touch noses with Fishpaw

[Stormchaser]

((Don't worry, s'all good.))

Fishclaw grinned to himself, excitement and ecstasy pulsing off him. He looked down to his me--former mentor, Silentstorm, eyes aglow and face alit with his joy. A warrior... It was the young tom's lifelong dream come alive. He licked Morningstar's shoulder respectfully, nodding to his leader. Fishclaw's pride was obvious, his yellow eyes were shining bright. "Thank you, Morningstar," he murmured.

Sorrelkit bristled. She was old now and still wasnt an apprentice. Her cold eyes fixed on Morningstar.

[//Morningstar//<3]

(what the heck, I did make Sorrelkit a apprentice! I made her one before I made Fishclaw a warrior! Just look in the Tallrock posts!)


Morningstar looked questioningly at Sorrelpaw, was she unhappy with her new mentor, Skywalker? But she took her questioning eyes off of Sorrelpaw for right now.

"You are most welcome, Fishclaw, it was about time."

Morningstar jumped off of the Tallrock and walked into her den, to ponder about Sorrelpaw. It must be Skywalker, she decided. For the apprentice has everything she needs to be happy. Or maybe it was some unknown thought.

[Featherstar]

Snowbird grinned. It was about time! She'd heard the young warrior grumbling, and, quite frankly, it got annoying pretty quickly. She walked up to him. "Congratulations, Fishclaw." she mewed.

((Oh rite didnt c XD))

Sorrelpaw looked towards the striped warrior.

[Yellowfang]

Rainwhisker didnt move as the apprentice wa smade a warrior.Not even her tail tip twitched.She just stared.Only when everybody starting cheering did she snap out of her trance and yowl along with them,then jumped up and shook herself clean,wandering off.Poor Rainwhisker,her thoughts as cluttered as a packrats closet.

[Stormchaser]

"Thanks, Snowbird!" Fishclaw meowed, his grin wider than RiverClan's territory. He noticed Rainwhisker leaving, and wondered if the she-cat's trancelike stare had perhaps been concerning the tom called Smoulderheart. He felt another gaze on him and turned to see Sorrelpaw, and he smiled to the apprentice.

[//Morningstar//<3]

Morningstar breathed a sigh. She was terribly tired. It would be best to retire for the day. She walked back into her den.

Silentstorm glowed with pride. She felt something more though. Something more intense for Fishpaw. Could it be? Could it be? She had felt it only once before to another more dreaded tom. Could it be? Could it be love?

[Dreamy]

Graystripe looked around. He smiled as Fishpaw was now a fellow warrior.

Congrats Fishclaw!

The long-haired tom ran up to Fishclaw, and touched his nose to Fishclaw's ear.

[Stormchaser]

Fishclaw grinned, accepting the other warrior's touch, but felt his eyes searching for his old mentor. Finally, the golden, blazing eyes locked upon Silentstorm. Tail and head both held high as he padded towards her, his grin widening. What of his parents? Did they sit, side by side, watching him faithfully, smiling to him in the stars? The thoughts entered his mind but almost immediately left, as he made his way towards Silentstorm.

"Silentstorm!" he cried, racing towards his mentor through the gathered cats of RiverClan. "Silentstorm, I did it! I'm a warrior!" The apprentice in him had shown, but he quickly hid it away, the glow fading from his eyes, replaced with a strong pride. "I mean, thank you, my former mentor, for teaching me..." He let the words roll off his tonue, yellow eyes watching her silently.

He whispered it at last, to her: "We did it, Silentstorm. Thank you." A part of the newly-made warrior, Fishclaw, told him that now was the time for him to leave and keep vigil over the camp. But another part wanted to stay there, with Silentstorm.
