Subject: Mistypaw's Warrior Ceremony Tue 1 Oct 2024 - 13:49
Her entire body still ached, and it showed in Wolfstar's slower than usual movements as she climbed to the tallbranch. Still, the leader smiled. Today the clan would have something to celebrate, something to distract from the whirlwind of a gathering that had passed not so long ago. Their apprentices were growing and learning, and today one more of them would join the ranks of Skyclan's warriors.
"Let all cats old enough to climb a tree gathering beneath the tallbranch for a clan meeting!"
Mistypaw hadn’t gone to the gathering, but she’d certainly seen enough. She didn’t think she’d ever quite shake the sight of her mother’s jaws covered in blood. Still, today was a new day. She would attend a meeting, train, and otherwise be normal.
Wolfstar smiled when she spotted the apprentice she was looking for. Things had certainly been hard lately, but Skyclan kept moving. Kept growing.
"Mistypaw, step forward." She mewed. Once she'd done so, the leader continued, "Skyclan, this apprentice has trained hard to learn the ways of a warrior, and so I commend her to you in her turn. Mistypaw, do you swear to defend and provide for your clan, even at the cost of your life?" She waited for the answer that was seemingly inevitable. She hated it, but so many of Skyclan's warriors had done just that. Hopefully Mistypaw would not be one that had to.
“I do,” Mistypaw trilled, her heart suddenly threatening to pound out of her chest. The black cat twitched her tail and kneaded the ground, desperately trying not to jump up and down in excitement.
If there was one thing Wolfstar would never tire of, it was the excitement and joy in a cat's gaze when they realized who a ceremony was for. "Then I grant you your warrior name. From now you shall be known as Mistyflash. Skyclan honors your energy and perseverance." The leader dipped her head, landing on the ground below the tallbranch somewhat heavily. She padded toward the newly-named warrior with a smile. "May your vigil tonight be an uneventful one, Mistyflash."
