Vixenkit's Apprentice Ceremony

"Let all cats of Skyclan old enough to climb a tree gather beneath the tallbranch for a clan meeting!" Rippedsky's yowl rang through the clearing. His claws scored the tallbranch once more. There had been a lot of ceremonies lately, something he was grateful for. The deputy's blue eyes scanned the clearing as he waited for the clan to assemble.

Vixenkit nodded, trying to stay calm, as she made her way up the Tallbranch.

"Vixenkit, please step forwards." Rippedsky called as soon as the kit joined the crowd. It was finally time to have her officially join the rank of apprentice. A soft smile wormed its way onto his maw. As soon as Vixenkit padded forwards, the deputy continued, "We gather once more to name another young cat as one of the clan's apprentices. Vixenkit is old enough to begin training. From this day forwards, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Vixenpaw. Bubblemist will be your mentor. I expect she will pass on all of his wisdom to you." While still young herself, Rippedsky had no doubt his daughter could handle it. This would be her first apprentice and he knew she would be a great mentor to Vixenpaw.

Vixenpaw padded up to her new mentor. She smiled at the she-cat, twitching her tail in delight.
