"It is time that another apprentice join the ranks of the warrior. Swanpaw, please come forwards." Rippedsky had watched her train hard for many moons to earn this moment. Not even a badger attack was going to stop his eldest daughter from receiving her warrior name. He shot her an encouraging smile as she stepped up to allow for the ceremony to begin. Once more, his voice echoed into the cat filled clearing, "I, Rippedsky, deputy of Skyclan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this cat. She has trained hard to learn the ways of your noble code, and I commend her to you as a warrior in her turn." Like usual, his blue eyes looked up to the stars as he called to the warrior ancestors to recognize her as a clan warrior.
"Swanpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?" He questioned her, already knowing what the response would be. The deputy's features were expressionless as he repeated the normal ceremonial words, but inside his chest was bursting with pride. So many of his kits had joined the warriors den now. It was finally time for Swanpaw to take her place alongside them, and alongside him.
