Scorchpaw's Warrior Ceremony Empty
PostSubject: Scorchpaw's Warrior Ceremony   Scorchpaw's Warrior Ceremony EmptyMon 26 Feb 2018 - 18:36

Scorchpaw was a source of great regret for the leader. She'd known about his mother's tendency to be distant, yet so early into her leadership, she hadn't known what to do. Ivystar had been conflicted between letting the kit be with it's kin and knowing that blood had not been enough to make Scorchpaw's mother care for him. His life in many ways mirrored her own, her mother had been distant too, caught up in shame. Her father abandoned her, too lost in his own sorrows. If anyone understood him, it would have been her. But she'd done nothing. She'd hoped that Sweetheart, with her kindness and soft heart would be like a mother too him, but instead she'd turned traitor. But rather than break him, all this hardship only made him loyal, a touch stubborn, but his heart was in the right place.

Though she could not claim to have played any role in making him the fine cat he was now, she was proud of how far he'd come. Thus she was more than happy to gather the clan so that he could rise to his true potential as a warrior. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the willow branch for a clan meeting!"

Sweetheart watched from the nursery, a sad smile on her face as she watched the cats beginning to gather beneath the willow branch. She knew this was Scorchpaw's warrior ceremony, and she only wished she would be able to stand out there next to him, beaming with pride for all his accomplishments. But according to Ivystar and the majority of RiverClan, she was a traitor, and she didn't deserve that privilege.

However, she still couldn't extinguish her pride and joy for Scorchpaw. He was such a talented cat, and she knew he would be a fantastic warrior in his turn.

Scorchpaw heard Ivystar's summon from where he lay in the shade of an overhanging tree. Unlike several times in the past, anger did not permeate the words. In fact, the RiverClan leader did not sound upset at all. Rising to his paws, the brown apprentice joined his clanmates who were already heading towards the willow branch. As he passed by the nursery, he turned his head, and his jade green eyes met with Sweetheart's bold yellow ones. The moment lasted only a second, but it was enough for him to notice the expression on his former mentor's face. Sad, yet genuinely happy. Scorchpaw walked on without saying anything, unsure of how to react towards her. Sweetheart was a cat who had taught him so much, yet at the same time she was suspected of being a traitor to RiverClan.

Taking a seat at the front of the crowd, Scorchpaw waited for Ivystar to continue speaking. From the tone of her voice, there did not seem to be any bad news, so she was probably gathering the clan for a ceremony. He knew he was old enough to become a warrior; his warrior ceremony would be any day now. Perhaps this was it.

"Scorchpaw, Jaystream has confirmed to me that you have proven yourself to be a noble and loyal cat to RiverClan. Thus we believe it is time for your warrior ceremony. If you believe yourself to be ready, step forward now." She had no doubts in him, herself, but it was about his own beliefs now. Did Scorchpaw feel ready to undertake this burden and rise up? Whatever decision he made, she would respect it.

The apprentice felt his breath catch in his throat when Ivystar called his name. Was he ready? Of course he was! There had never been any hesitation within him that he would be ready when the time came. Scorchpaw stood up and stepped forward. His head was held high, and his jade-colored eyes flashed with excitement.

"I, Ivystar, leader of Riverclan, 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, Scorchpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to be loyal, protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?" Ivystar watched the apprentice for his answer, though she knew that he would accept whole-heartedly. She knew that this was no small burden, but he had the strength of will and the conviction for it.

"I do." Scorchpaw mewed solemnly. So many things had happened ever since his apprentice ceremony. Darkpaw had been killed by a fox. Rowanpaw and Fawnsong had been murdered by ThunderClan. Ivystar had led a patrol to ThunderClan to claim justice. Many cats had died, and the war with ThunderClan was always lingering somewhere in the back of his mind. Maybe Fawnsong had been right when she said that the war had made him grow up. The him that stood here now for his warrior ceremony was a different cat from the him at his apprentice ceremony. He was much bigger now, for one. The thick brown fur that covered his body now hid an abundance of muscles as well. Although he did not take his eyes from Ivystar, Scorchpaw wondered what kinds of expressions his parents had on their faces. Were they proud of him? Even though he had made the decision to forget about them, he had to admit that sometimes he wondered if they had changed their minds about him. Quickly, he pushed the thoughts of his parents away. They didn't matter. Not anymore. He would become a warrior so great that they would regret never cherishing him.

"By the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. From this day forth, you will be known to all as Scorchclaw. RiverClan honours your inner strength and maturity in face of many difficulties." Ivystar called out this loud for all the riverlands to here, proud to name this cat a warrior of her clan. And quietly, she prayed internally that he would live a long life and get the chance to be the parent to kits that his own parents failed to be. That he would find love and joy. If any cat deserved this, it was Scorchclaw.

And from behind the newly named warrior, Otterleap called out with pride, eagerly calling out the tom's new name. This was a moment of celebration for the whole clan to enjoy, a reprieve from the sorrow.

"Tonight, you will hold a vigil as is tradition, Scorchclaw. You will be silent as you watch over us all in the centre of camp. Keep us safe, young warrior. But as you might expect, patrols will continue as usual. We must be prepared to defend ourselves." The thought of foxes and many other dangers linger in her mind as she spoke. "May StarClan guide our paths and continue to give us good fortune."

"Congratulations Scorchclaw!" Adderpaw cried, eyes twinkling with mischief as she glanced at her former denmate, skidding to a halt beside the tabby and giving him a playful prod between the ribs. Although she wasn't overly envious of the tom for gaining his Warrior name before her, it was still saddening to think that another one of her denmates was leaving her behind. Now all she had left was Lilacpaw and Lavenderpaw! "It took you long enough." Adderpaw offered a lopsided grin at Scorchclaw, bouncing lightly on her toes as she spoke, "Although I think I'll miss your constant snoring!"

As his clanmates began to call out his new name, Scorchclaw felt a grin growing on his face. Scorchclaw. He was Scorchclaw now, and he could not have asked for a better name. It had a nice ring to it. At Adderpaw's voice by his side, he flashed her a surprised glance. Then he let out a purr. "Thanks. You think I took a long time? Let's see if you can make it faster than I did." The tabby actually thought that she would join him in the warriors' den before long, but he did not say so. "I, for one, am acually looking forward to not having to share a den with you. Sometimes you have too much energy." As he said those last words, however, there was a light undercurrent to his tone that revealed that he did not really mean them.

Sweetheart rose up from her nest in the nursery and padded over to her former apprentice, smiling sadly at him. "Congratulations, Scorchclaw," she meowed, her voice soft and sad, yet very proud. "I'm so very proud of you, and I know you will be a great warrior." A greater warrior than me... She had almost left that thought unsaid.

Scorchclaw turned to face Sweetheart, and the wide grin that had been on his muzzle dissolved back into his normal serious expression as soon as he saw her. "Thank you." He mewed. He kept his tone as neutral as possible, but a hint of frostiness still managed to creep into his voice. "I won't fail your expectations." I'll become a great warrior. One that definitely won't betray his clan. Those thoughts shot through his mind at the irony of her words, but he wisely chose not to speak them.
