Applepaw's tail flicked back and forth in anticipation of what was to come. He and Linnetpaw were split up for their assesments - he wasn't too happy about that since he was such good friends with the brown tabby.
But Mallowcloud explained that their assessments were based off their weak points - Linnetpaw's was patience, and Applepaw's was anything risky.
And so, when the ginger tabby tom set off on his assesment - to swim across the river, climb up three trees, and then slowly approach Mallowcloud - he couln't alert his mentor to his presence more than five times or he'd fail.
Then, he'd have to pounce onto his mentor's back.
The thought of that made Applepaw's heart beat in his chest rapidly, as if it was trying to burst out of his chest.
He made his way across the river slowly, Mallowcloud watching him carefully thw ehole time. Once he made it out of the water and shook his pelt out, Mallowcloud sprinted away.
Applpepaw trembled as he scrambled up the three trees- he moved slowly at each one, his mother watching him carefully while Mallowcloud waited for him up ahead.
Finally, it was the easiest, but simutaenously, the most stressful part.
He didn't even alert Mallowcloud once, and the long-haired deputy actually shrieked when Applepaw landed on his back.
"Well, uh, you definetly passed."
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Sagestar bounded onto the stone in the centre of camp and called her first official meeting.
"All cats old enough to feel the rain on their fur, gather beneath the... uh... Rain Stone."
It was unfamilliar terminology, but the clan did come together.
Even the three little kits toddled alongside their mother, knocking into eachother and blubbering primarily nonsense, althog=ugh Sagstar could hear some snippet of words.
She cleared her throat.
"I, Sagestar, leader of RainClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. He has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend him to you as a warrior in his turn.
Applepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do."
Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Applepaw, from this moment on you will be known as Applecloud. StarClan honours your patience and kindness, and we welcome you as a full warrior of RainClan."
The clan chanted the name of the new warrior, and Applepaw - no, Applecloud shrunk back, smiling softly, although the chanting of his new name seemed to fluster him.
Sagestar cleared her throat again.
"Errr... I suppose that I just repeat this? I, Sagestar, leader of RainClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as a warrior in their turn.
Linnetpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?
"Of course I do!"
Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Linnetpaw, from this moment on you will be known as Linnetwhsiker. StarClan honours your hunting skill and determination, and we welcome you as a full warrior of RainClan. Applecloud, Linnetwhisker, you will both stand vigil in the camp tonight."
Linnetwhisker stood proudly as the clan called out their name.
Sagestar smiled as she climbed off the stone.
The young apprentices had truly grown into fine warriors.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
There was nothing on Sagestar's patrol.
Not a prey-scent, not a mouse scuttling across the snow-blanketed ground - not even a single bird call.
Sagestar shuddered - and it wasn't because of the cold. Her heart raced, and she feared that RainClan's lack of prey would persist in the coming moons.
They had plenty of prey, but it could go down quickly.
Sagestar shook out her fur, trying to loosen the cold, wet snow from the lilac hairs.
The future of RainClan, for the first time since their founding, was uncertain.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Smokeface sat with their head on their paws, watching the leader sit in the centre of camp, waiting for everybody to come back.
Sagestar never took charge of anything. She'd tell cats where they were going that day, but that was it. Frankly, Smokeface found Sagestar more than a little bit useless.
I'd be better.
Swiftpaw was going to start his assesment. Neat, a new warrior to follow Sagestar's empty orders.
Smokeface, Dusttail, Dunnockpelt, and Ashnose were all scheduled to hunt. Smokeface didn't feel much towards those three, but they were fine, Smokeface figured.
Sagestar, Mallowcloud, Wasppelt, Applecloud, and Linnetwhisker all went on patrol. Mallowcloud seemed a little better than Sagestar, at least in Smokeface's eyes, but Smokeface still knew that they'd make a better leader than either the lilac molly or the white tom.
Applecloud and Linnetwhisker would stand vigil at camp for the night after hey came back from patrolling, and Briarleaf was headed off to go herb hunting.
And Sagestar would be heading to the moonpool to request an apprentice.
Smokeface strode over to the fresh-kill pile, picking up a piece of prey.
I'll be leader one day, and I'll be far better than either of you. Just you wait.
