Condorkit, Rainkit and Patchkit's Apprentice Ceremony

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather for a Clan meeting!" Fishpelt hollered from her perch on the willow branch. Spring was nigh, and a golden ray of sunlight filtered through the leaves above the RiverClan deputy.

Patchkit's head poked from the nursery. Word had went around that a few of Otterfur's kits would be apprenticed soon. He'd waited so eagerly to become an apprentice, and today was finally the day. "It's about time," he remarked to his brother, nudging him before dashing into the clearing.

Occ: rainkits also ready!

Wailingstream heard Fishpelt's call and stepped out onto the clearing from the warrior's den as per tradition. His fur was glossy as always in the sunlight, but the winter coat that hadn't quite left yet was making him a little too warm. And so he decided to sit beneath a reed tangle to keep as cool as possible as he watched Patchkit and Condorkit dash towards the willow branch.

Icetail ran over. Her best friend as a kit-Patchkit, and her friend, Condorkit, would get apprenticed! She was still mourning for their sister, Gingerpaws, death, and hoped they knew she was concerned yet happy as they would finally become apprentices. She was surprised, as their ages were so different. She had been a five moon old kit when they were born! She sat next to Patchkit.

ooc: You didn't let Fish know that Rainkit was ready. I think she'll allow you to be apprenticed in this topic as well, though.

ic: Patchkit huffed, glad that his ceremony was finally here. They had waited longer than usual, and they were visibly impatient. He hung his head, long tail swiping against the leafy ground. He felt fur brush against him. Glancing up, he saw Icetail, much to his surprise. He thought she would've missed his ceremony! Blue eyes brightening, he butted her shoulder. "I'm glad you're here! I'm going to be a warrior just like you soon..."

Condorkit let out a grunt as Patchkit nudged him and raced off. "What's the rush?" he muttered to himself, slowly standing up and stretching his limbs. "They're not going to start without us." The soon-to-be apprentice padded over at a more deliberate pace, sitting down next to his brother and smoothed his fur down with his tongue.

OOC: Like Coon said, Crys, please just PM me if you want a ceremony done/to be added to an existing one.


Fishpelt cleared he throat and commanded, "Condorkit, Patchkit and Rainkit, please step forward."

"I can't believe you said that after how long we had to wait for this," Patchkit said to Condorkit, shaking his head. At Fishpelt's voice, he snapped to attention and stepped forward, head high.

"Everything happens eventually," he muttered back, stepping forward alongside his brother. He could be so impatient sometimes. Still, he was rather excited. After all, he was finally going to become an apprentice. There was so much to learn and experience. That was what excited him the most.

Rainkit also stepped forwar not really saying much as her brothers continued to chat away, instead she watched and stayed quiet, her ear flicking.

"You three have reached the age of six moons, and are now ready to be apprenticed. From this day forth, until you recieve your warrior names, you shall be known as Condorpaw, Patchpaw and Rainpaw." The tabby deputy took a moment to ponder mentors, but it didn't take long. "Condorpaw, your mentor shall be Silverwing. Patchpaw, your mentor shall be Wailingstream, and Rainpaw, your mentor shall be Otterfur." She nodded to the new apprentices. "May they pass their knowledge and wisdom onto you."

Condorkit stood up proud, a smile on his face as he stepped forward to touch noses with his new mentor. He was more than ready to start learning everything about... well, anything. 'Condorpaw': he liked the sound of that. His warrior name, though: that would sound even better.
