Warriors ~ HollyClan w/ *free* Chapters; Three

Postby blue neighbourhood » Thu Aug 13, 2015 9:30 pm

Territory:
HollyClan lives atop a small hill, and is sometimes called the clan of snow, for their land is covered in white from the end of leaf-fall until the start of newleaf. Because of this, many HollyClan cats have whit pelts for hunting in the snow. They have no enemies, but their main borders are the edges of the hill, which are mostly surrounded by a cliff or the River. The River begins at an underground lake, the Moon Lake. This is where medicine cats go to speak with StarClan. The rest of the territory is divided into the Forest at the east, the Grasslands to the west, the Hill to the north and, leading from the hill, the River cuts a path through the Forest and the grasslands.

Camp:
Beside a cliff on the Hill you will find HollyClan's camp. It is protected by a cliff and the bramble borders. The leader's den, medicine cat den and the nursery are in caves in the cliff, the elders' den below that in a hollow log, and the warrior and apprentice dens on opposite sides of the clearing, made from bushes. The leader addresses the clan from a rock that juts out from the cliff, known as Leader's Rock.

Chapter One

Postby sparrow; » Thu Aug 13, 2015 9:36 pm

One


Looking through the thick leaves of the bush where she was hiding, Ravenkit watched her brother, Bumblekit, leap on her sister, Swiftkit. The two of them fell to the ground, wrestling, and threw golden leaves all around the clearing. After a few moments, Bumblekit had Swiftkit pinned down. Ravenkit crouched and sprang from the bushes. Her brother saw her too late, and she knocked him off her sister.
"We win again!" Swiftkit yowled triumphantly from behind Ravenkit. Bumblekit glared at both of them as he stood up and shook off the leaves and moss that were gathered in his pelt. His brown fur was messy and sticking up at the wrong angles after his tussle with Swiftkit. "You look ridiculous," snorted Ravenkit before self consciously grooming her own messy black fur.
"It's not fair!" Bumblekit complained. "You guys always gang up on me!" In reply, Ravenkit rolled her eyes. He was right, though - the two of them did cheat a little. But Swiftkit defended them, meowing, "It's no like you're going to only face cats alone when you leave the clan on your adventure!"
She was, of course, referring to Bumblekit's fantasy of leaving the clan on some "great adventure". The two sisters had no idea why he wanted to go, and teased him about it constantly. He always got embarrassed about it, and now was no different, but refused to give up his dream.
"I'll make friends! And I'll be stronger then, you'll see! You'll wish you never laughed at Bumblestar when I return!" Ravenkit purred in amusement at her brothers reference to himself being leader. Like the clumsy kit would ever get the nine lives of StarClan.
Swiftkit obviously agreed, and replied, "You'll never even begin this adventure, why do you think you'll end it in glory?" she laughed.
At this Bumblekit began to walk away, but not before yowling, "I will! You'll see!"
Ravenkit watched her brother run towards the nursery and sighed. Although she agreed with her sister completely, she wished Swiftkit would be a little less rude. After all, she admired Bumblekit's refusal to give up, despite herself and her sister constantly putting him down. Personally, she would have given up ages ago - not that she would ever think up such a stupid idea in the first place.
"Kits! Come into the nursery, it's getting dark out there." The voice of Fernheart, their mother, made all the kits turn around. Bumblekit was the first to start racing over to the warm shelter of the nursery, where all kits spent their first six moons before they became apprentices. He was probably going to tell on the two of them.
Swiftkit looked over. "Come on, let's go," she sighed, padding after her brother. Ravenkit followed more slowly. She wished she could stay out until the entire camp was dark, watching the StarClan cats come out in Silverpelt. But she didn't, as she knew her mother would make her come inside anyway.
Inside the nursery, Ravenkit curled up next to her siblings. As she was about to fall asleep, she thought to herself, What if Bumblekit went on an adventure and came back alive? What if his dream succeeded? But the thought faded as she began to dream, asleep in the comfort of her mother's fur.

Two

Bumblekit curled up around Fernheart, and whispered, "Will you let me go on the big adventure? Please?"
"No," his mother mewed firmly. "I won't let you leave this Clan by yourself!"
Before he could retort, Swiftkit and Ravenkit came in, tumbling head over paws. "Come and play with us, Bumblekit!" Ravenkit squeaked. "We'll play fair this time, I promise!"
"Fine," Bumblekit mewed quietly, mischief glittering in his blue eyes. "I'll play..." He looked as if he was about to say something else, when he pounced on Swiftkit, purring loudly. "Bumblestar is victorious!"
"That's not faiiiiir!" Swiftkit whined, paws flailing. "We didn't do that to you!"
"Yes you did!" Bumblekit purred, stepping off of his sister. "But I win." He licked his front paw smugly. "Bumblestar always wins!"
"Not true," Swiftkit mewed, straightening herself up. "Let's fight!"
"I'll decide who wins!" Ravenkit squealed in her high-pitched mew. The little black kit sat down and cleared her throat importantly. "Bumblekit against Swiftkit," she narrated deeply. "Who will win?"
"Bumblestar," Bumblekit corrected, circling Swiftkit.
"Swiftstar too!" Swiftkit squeaked, circling Bumblekit.
"Beginning in three..." Ravenkit continued, rolling her eyes. "Two, one!"
Swiftkit pounced on Bumblekit, baring her tiny teeth. Bumblekit tried to push her off, grunting with effort. He was too small, so instead he rolled over onto his belly. Swiftkit squeaked in surprise, leaping off. Bumblekit stood up, hissing and growling. Bumblekit bunched his muscles, ready to leap...
"Kits!" Fernheart called. "Come in now! It's getting late, you need to get some rest now."
Bumblekit sighed, and with a wry twist to his mouth, he mewed mischievously, "We finish this tomorrow."

Chapter Three

Postby sparrow; » Mon Aug 24, 2015 10:13 pm

Three

Ravenkit pulled away from her mother. "Come on, I look fine!" she whined. Fernheart sighed. "Well, I suppose you look decent," she admitted. "But don't mess up your fur until after the ceremony!" Ravenpaw nodded obediently and sat down beside Bumblekit, whose fur was already neat and tidy. Their mother had now turned on Swiftkit, smoothing her fur to prepare for the apprentice ceremony that was taking place soon.
A while later, Swiftkit was ready too. They all sat and patiently listened as their mother ran them through what to do for the nth time that day. As she was going through ways to stay calm, Bumblekit interrupted. "I know! Can we just hurry up and have the ceremony?" he sighed. As irritated as he sounded, his eyes were glowing and he was clearly looking forward to being an apprentice just as much as the other cats.
Fernheart purred and nodded. "Your father would have been so proud," she sighed. Ravenkit knew she was talking about Silverstorm, the father she neve knew, rather than Thrushstar, who'd promised to act as the kit's father ever since. He was also the leader of the clan, and Ravenkit and he siblings were considered luck. Lucky for my father to be dead before I even met him, thought Ravenkit angrily.
"All cats old enough to leave the camp in snow, gather beneath the Leader's rock for a clan meeting!" yowled Thrushstar's voice from outside their den. The three kits weren't actually old enough to be outside the camp in snow, but it was their ceremony so had to attend.
Once all the HollyClan cats were gathered in the clearing, Thrushstar began the ceremony.
"Swiftkit," he began, and Ravenpaw's sister got to her paws, shaking in excitement. "You have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Swiftpaw. Your mentor will be Snowfur. I hope Snowfur will pass down all she knows on to you."
Snowfur was near the front, but now she got to her paws and looked up at Thrushstar. "Snowfur, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Lilystream and you have shown yourself to be kind to all cats, and to have great patience. You will be the mentor of Swiftpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her."
Swiftpaw and Snowfur touched noses, and sat down together to wait for the rest of the ceremony. Thrushstar looked up again, and this time he was looking straight at Ravenkit.
"Ravenkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Ravenpaw. Your mentor will be Turtlestorm." Ravenpaw looked around for Turtlestorm, and found the she cat sitting near the front. She looked calm but there was a gleam in her eye, and Ravenpaw decided she must have known about becoming a mentor. She turned away again as Thrushstar continued. "I hope Turtlestorm will pass down all she knows on to you."
As he said this, Turtlestorm got to her paws and made her way to the very front, looking up at the leader on his rock. As Thrushstar continued, he looked at her instead of Ravenpaw. "Turtlestorm, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You had received excellent training from Frostpelt, may she rest peacefully in StarClan, and you have shown yourself to remain calm when others would panic, be thoughtful when others would act on instinct. You will be the mentor of Ravenpaw, and I expect you to pass on all you know to her."
Ravenpaw touched noses with her new mentor, her fur tingling. She was an apprentice! But Thrushstar's next words made her blood freeze. "That is the end of the ceremony. Bumblekit, please meet me in my den along with your sisters and your mother as soon as we have called the names of these new apprentices."

Four

What? Bumblekit thought, his eyes suddenly opened wide in shock. Without meeting eye contact with any of his Clanmates, he padded into Thrushstar's den. He gulped, staring at the floor, before eventually looking up to see Thrushstar, Ravenpaw, Fernheart, and Swiftpaw. "Why am I not an apprentice?" he asked immediately, his voice quiet and squeaky.
"Hush," his mother murmured, obviously knowing what Thrushstar was going to stay. Once everyone had settled down, Thrushstar cleared his throat.
"You are in no trouble," he mewed gently, his deep voice quiet.
