The long-awaited day had finally come.
One after the other, both Tawnykit and Torrentkit rsced out of the nursery, wide grins on their faces. They sat side by side as close to the willow branch as possible, their eyes beaming and their tails twitching with excitement.
Torrentkit turned towards his sister, nervousness starting to become evident in his demeanor, "I wonder what it will be like, being an apprentice! I heard it was great, but there was a lot of work to do in order to move up to a warrior! I don't know about all this, Tawnykit. My pelt's standing on end just thinking abiut it. What if I don't meet all the requirements? What if-"
Tawnykit glared at her brother and shushed him, twitching her ears in annoyance, "I'm sure we'll do just fine, Torrentkit. You talk too much. Hopefully that will change when we sit here, in this very dpot as ee become warriors together." She playfully nudged his shoulder and purred, smiling reassuringly to hopefully ease his nerves.
Torrentkit sighed and directed his gaze to the deputy perched upon the willow branch, deciding to take his sister's advice and think positive. It was funny, really; Tawnykit was usually the anxious one and he would be there to keep her going. It was amazing, on such an important day, roles could switch, even for a second.
