Oakstar smiled down at his son as he called down to the crowd.
"Mistpaw, step forward." He waited for a moment to give his son time to recover himself and step forward as requested.
"I, Oakstar, leader of ThunderClan, 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 them to you as a warrior in their turn. Mistpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your life?" There was little doubt what the tom’s answer would be. Oakstar’s chest puffed out with pride as he glanced around for Dustcloud, to catch her eyes with his, then at Nettlepaw with a tender smile before looking back down at Mistpaw, soon to be warrior.
