 O w l t a l o n“Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.”___________________________“...Wavepelt, my newest friend and Clanmate, shouldn't you be doing something to benefit the Clan? What will Willowstar think if she catches you taunting one of our she-cats on your first moon with BreezeClan?”
[Owltalon straightened up, his tail-tip quivering every-so-often as his golden eyes stared down the tom. Seriously, both of the cats before him somewhat annoyed him right now. He felt his claws flex. Sure, this was all fun and games, but underestimating his power was a truly bad mistake. He widened his eyes at them both.]
“And I wasn't given the name 'Owltalon' out of random chance, you know.”

"Oh, why. Thank you, Owltalon. For coming to my defense. But, I believe I can fight my own fights." [Rosewind's eyes glinted and her tail twitched and came to rest on Owltalon's back. The tortoiseshell she-cat and white, fluffy tom stood facing Wavepelt.] "Seriously, Wavepelt. You should be doing something more productive."

Exactly what I was waiting for Wavepelt stood up "how about a challenge? The one who catches the least prey has to clean ticks off the elder's fur for,". He thought of a reasonable time "a moon and a half". It's a win win, I leave on the journey in a day or two or he has to deal with mouse bile!

  [Dicekit pulled her head back in dismay at her brother's stinging words.] "In case you haven't forgotten, Cloverkit. We are kits to a kittypet! You have no right to assume this kit's strength, he's only a kit and so are you!" [She nearly stomped out, but froze at the sight of her sister. She motioned for the tom to follow her in, as she walked in and sat in front of her sister, who lay asleep.][Dicekit let out a sigh and buried her nose in her sister's pelt.] "Spadekit...i don't understand why starclan allowed you to suffer in a way like this...If anyone deserved that pain, it was me. Doveflight's never going to be able to redeem herself for attempting to take your life...Her passion is our...i mean...your poison. I've been nothing but a bother to you your whole life. Even without the dark spirit's presence over me, i'm still hated. I don't want to poison you any more..."[she pulled back from the she-kit's pelt.] "I'm considering leaving the clan. I want a fresh start, where i don't have to worry any more."

O w l t a l o n“Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.”___________________________ “StarClan knows you act like such a kit at times, dear Wavepelt. I'm sorry, but I'll have to refuse that offer. Willowstar has assigned me to keep watch on Doveflight, so my post, until further notice, is right here. But, if you really want to do something productive, how about fetching me a meal? Remember, I'm not allowed to leave this spot.”
[Owltalon fluffed his fur and glanced at Rosewind, nodding to the she-cat. He admired her courage, that was for sure.]

Wavepelt sighed, he was beaten so he got a rabbit and brought it over to the cats. "Alright, you beat me with that fact, maybe in about a moon and a half we can have this competition." He padded back to where the two kits were talking, he heard one of them speak about leaving I'll wait to tell someone about it. After all, if a cat doesn't like their lifestyle and want to change it who am I to judge that?

. : :R o s e w i n d : : . "Thank you, Wavepelt." She called after him as he walked away.
"Owltalon, do you think we'll get apprentices soon? The kits are almost of that age, aren't they?" Rosewind wondered aloud.

     ❧  ♨[Galespirit padded into the clearing and stretched. He watched, amused, as Rosewind, Owltalon, and Wavepelt chatted, and then flicked his ears at Rosewind's implied request. He tilted his head, thinking, and padded up behind her.]
"That depends on which kits you would like," he said warmly. "If Owltalon is done with Wavepelt, then I'm sure I could appoint some kits to you. We have many."
[Galespirit purred to himself, then tried to count as many as he could remember. Cloverkit, Spadekit, Dicekit...and then Softkit and Oakkit, but Oakkit requested to be Emberpaw's mentor. Wait...isn't Emberpaw just about finished with training?
Mumbling to himself, Galespirit blinked. He'd have to speak with Windtail when he returned with Emberpaw...]

 "To live is to slowly be born."_____________________________Emberpaw_____________________________[Emberpaw padded in with his mentor, Windtail. They had trained again, after the gathering. Windtail seemed determined to speed up Emberpaw's training, especially after what happened at the gathering.
Since there was an obvious shortage of prey, they had gone hunting and caught what little edible prey had trickled back into the forest.
Dropping his young rabbit and small sparrow on the pile, Emberpaw looked around. Windtail dropped his thrush and quail and licked his lips.
Galespirit padded up to the two. Emberpaw immediately fell into a bad mood.]
"Hello there, you two," Galespirit chirped cheerily, his eyes twinkling.
"Greetings, Galespirit," Windtail responded, dipping his head respectfully.
[Emberpaw stared stubbornly down at his paws. Windtail stomped down hard on Emberpaw's foot. Emberpaw let out a soft hiss.]
"Be respectful to your deputy! Windtail hissed, his eyes angry.
"Greetings," Emberpaw murmured gruffly.
[Galespirit chuckled.]
"You two have been working very hard. Emberpaw, you are about the right age to move on towards warrior status. Windtail, do you believe he is ready?"
[Emberpaw froze, shocked. Windtail coughed, surprised by the question.]
"Well...I suppose he could learn some manners, but I do believe he is fully trained in fighting and hunting."
"Very well then!" Galespirit said happily. "I'll have a word with Willowstar then."
[The warrior padded off, and Emberpaw felt himself shaking with excitement. He would become a warrior! He could hardly believe it! His mind whirled. I wonder what name I'll receive? Perhaps Emberstorm or Embertail? No, those are common name endings. Oh, I don't care, as long as I become a warrior-!
Windtail purred and rested his tailtip on Emberpaw's shoulder.]
"Well done, my apprentice," he said softly.
[Emberpaw looked up, and saw a twinkle of pride in his mentor's ear. Emberpaw felt bashful, but he knew he had grown closer to this cat. He tilted his head down, revealing his forehead, and Windtail moved forwards. They bumped heads. Leaning towards each other, with their heads still against the other's, Windtail let out a large, rumbling purr, and Emberpaw couldn't help but let out one of his own.
He would never forget his mentor's teachings. His tail twitched as he held the head bump. He wanted this moment to last forever- him with his mentor, the only cat he was close to, saying farewell as their roles of mentor and apprentice.]

 M a p l e k i t "Stand up for what you believe in; otherwise, you will be trampled on by those who don't."____________________________________ ((Timber, I've already requested that Maplekit be Owltalon's apprentice. ^^; Sorry, just wanted to say that real quick. . . >.<; ))
[Maplekit's tail twitched eagerly. She launched herself out of the nursery at full speed. She barrelled into Emberpaw, and lay on the ground, paws to the sky. She looked into Emberpaw's eyes with her curious green ones and lashed out a paw playfully. She wriggled up and dipped her head bashfully as she noticed that Cloverkit, Softkit, and Oakkit saw her.
However, she regained her composure. She raced away from Emberpaw, mewing a farewell. The calico she-kit then saw a small reed blowing in the wind. She rushed forward and pounced on it, crushing it. She bounced on it some more, making sure it was 'dead'. She got bored with it and continued her way toward the elders' den. She skidded to a halt before the entrance to the den, her ears flickering. She bounced over to Owltalon, Rosewind, and Wavepelt and sprawled out in the middle of them. Her green eyes looked at the older warriors, full of humor. She scrambled up and mewed a quick greeting, momentarily forgetting that there were three other kits with her. She suddenly remembered and hurtled toward the other kits, almost bowling Cloverkit over.
She grinned sheepishly and then bounded into the elders' den. She skidded to a halt and peered into the shadows.]
"Redpoppy? Anyone?"
[Maplekit curled her tail around her paws as Redpoppy emerged. She settled down for a nice, long elder's tale.]

[Icepaw didn't see her mentor so she decided that since she really needed to tell someone she would find someone in camp to tell. She spotted Galespirit and walked up to him.]
"Galespirit, could I talk to you alone?"

❧ ♨[Galespirit glanced at Icepaw and nodded.]
Speaking to the warriors, he said, "Ah, excuse me. It seems we get interrupted often when trying to decide this. Please tell me what your choices are and I will have a word with Willowstar."
[He dipped his head respectfully, despite the fact that it was unecessary for him, being deputy, and turned to Icepaw. He nodded, and motioned with his tail for her to follow him.
He padded off to the side of camp near the elder's den, where most of the cats were either deaf or sleeping.]
"What is it, Icepaw?" he asked warmly, his robin blue eyes shining kindly.
