*Markstar smiled down at his apprentice. Bluegaze had also helped with training Shadowedpaw, because Bluegaze was blind. Shadowedpaw could only see shadows, so it was difficult for Markstar to train him.
Hazelcloud, Foxwing and Icewing are you satisfied that your apprentice is ready to become a warrior?
*The mentors all nod and respond.*
Yes, they are ready.
*Markstar nodded.*
I, Markstar, leader of LakeClan call upon my warrior ancestors to look down upon these apprentices. They have trained hard to learn the ways of your noble code, and I give them to you as warriors in turn.
Silverpaw, Arcingpaw, Daypaw and Shadowedpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and protect and defend your clan even at the cost of your life?
*They nod nod and say I do.*
Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior names.
Silverpaw, from this moment you will be known as Silverlily. StarClan honors your enthusiasm, and we welcome you as a full warrior of LakeClan.
Daypaw, from this moment you will be known as Dayriver. StarClan honors your spirit, and we welcome you as a full warrior of LakeClan.
Arcingpaw, from this moment you will be known as Arcingsong. StarClan honors your loyalty, and we welcome you as a full warrior of LakeClan.
Shadowedpaw, from this moment you will be known as Shadowedgaze. StarClan honors your determination, patience and forethought, and we welcome you as a full warrior of LakeClan.
*The clan started to cheer for the new warriors.*
Silverlily! Dayriver! Arcingsong! Shadowedgaze!
*Once the cheering died down, Markstar spoke again.*
Now, as tradition. You must sit a silent vigil tonight to reflect on your warrior duties!
*Then, he continued*
By naming apprentices we show that LakeClan will survive and remain strong.
*Markstar looked down, then smiled.
Wakekit and Bladedkit, please step forward.
*His two kits stepped forward. Their fur was neat from an earlier grooming from Grayshadow *
Until you have received you warrior names, you will be known as Wakepaw and Bladedpaw!
*Markstar looked down, then smiled.
Wakekit and Bladedkit, please step forward.
*His two kits stepped forward. Their fur was neat from an earlier grooming from Grayshadow *
Until you have received you warrior names, you will be known as Wakepaw and Bladedpaw!
Soul, you shall mentor Wakepaw.
Frostysky, you shall mentor Bladedpaw.
*The mentors touched the apprentices noses, then the clan started to cheer.*
Wakepaw! Bladedpaw!
*Markstar smiled and leaped down to greet Wakepaw and Bladedpaw. Wakepaw stood tall, and Bladedpaw stood behind her, his eyes wary.*

Birchstorm padded up to Blossomspirit licking her nose he dropped two plump mice "I brought you some food," he purred
~-~Birchy~-~
Frostysky smiled widely, touching noses with Bladedpaw
~-~Frostysky~-~
Blossomspirit smiled.
"Thanks. I'm glad Silverlily is a warrior now." Blossomspirit smiled again, and began to eat.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
"Yup, I'm sure she's happy about it too! How is she going to go the entire night without talking?" he purred smiling
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirt cuffed his ear.
"Don't be mean, but you are right..." Blossomspirit giggled.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm chuckled "So how are you and the kits?"
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit shrugged.
"Fine, but why do you need to ask that? You ask that every single day!" Blossomspirit purred. She nuzzled him.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
"Because I need to make sure you and the kits are okay," he purred licking her ear laughing "Though I do miss hunting with you sometimes, it was nice to be with you alone in the forest, no other worries," he sighed shaking his head "But I can't wait, soon there will be little kits, I can't wait to meet them I know they'll be just like you,"
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit smiled. "Hey, just because I have kits inside me doesn't mean we can go for a walk in the forest.." Blossomspirit purred. "Hey that actually sounds nice." Blossomspirit smiled. "Come with?"
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm nodded purring "Of course,"
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit trotted into the forest, and soaked up everything. The smell, the sight.
"I can't wait for them to be born. Then I can get out into the forest again." Blossomspirit breathed.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm nodded nuzzling her "I wonder what they'll be like," he sighed
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit smiled, and sighed.
"They'll be perfect, just like you..." Blossomspirit purred. "But I do really worry about BlackClan hurting them..."
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm's gaze dropped to the ground. "I won't even let BlackClan get NEAR our kits, I'm a better fighter than most of them, the only one who is really better than me is Icycurrent, and he is on our side,"
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit smiled and purred, but then stopped.
"We need to get back to camp, right now!" Blossomspirit gasped. "Kits... Coming..." Blossomspirit collapsed onto the forest floor and found herself, gasping for breath, and the first kit came out. Blossomspirit gulped, then pushed again, and the second one came out. Blossomspirit gasped, and rested her head down on the ground.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm's eyes grew wide, he nipped both kits sacs and pushed them toward Blossomspirit "Any more?" he asked, making a make-shift nest for her

~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit looked up.
"No... I don't think so.... Look at the cream-and-white she-kit. She's so cute... can we name her Dawningkit?" Blossomspirit asked.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm purred nuzzling her affectionatly "Thats perfect," he looked over at the light gray tabby tom, he smiled "How about Fleckedkit for the tom?"
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit studied at the gray tabby tom for a second, then nodded.
"Perfect. We should get back to camp..." Blossomspirit meowed. She stood up, and the kits began mewling. Blossomspirit purred, and picked up Fleckedkit extremely gently and padded back to camp. Blossomspirit walked through the tunnel, and gently placed Fleckedkit down for a second and waited for Birchstorm.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm padded through the barrier, Dawningkit in hi jaws. He set their kit down next to Blossomspirit, his eyes filled with love
~-~Birchy~-~
Blossomspirit purred.
"Well, I guess we should go back to the Nursery, then probably get Nestflame, Ridgepaw, or Rosedawn..." Blossomspirit meowed. She sighed. "Come on, let's go. Blossomspirit picked up Fleckedkit again and padded into the Nursery, set Fleckedkit down, and lay down in her nest.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Birchstorm smiled and purred, picking up Dawningkit and laying her beside her mother
~-~Birchy~-~
Nestflame padded in borage in his mouth "Here you go," he smiled, setting it down in front of her. He looked over at Birchstorm, he was surprised how big he was now, he still thought of him as the small kit he had found with Bluegaze, when he was still an apprentice. He laughed, now Birchstorm has kits of his own. He chuckled "If you need anything else, tell me, and, congratulations," he purred padding out
~-~Nestflame~-~
Blossomspirit swallowed the borage, wincing at the bitter taste. Blossomspirit stretched out, then curled up back around the kits. Blossomspirit yawned. She looked at Birchstorm.
"If you have to go on patrol, don't think about us. We'll be here the whole time. But if you can stay, please do." Blossomspirit looked at him, and smiled, before drifting off into a light sleep.
<>*Blossomspirit*<>
Dawningkit mewled when Blossomspirit moved, but eventually went to sleep.
<>*Dawningkit*<>
Birchstorm shook his head "I'm going to stay with my mate and kits," he curled up near her nest and closed his eyes purring deeply
~-~Birchy~-~
Fleckedkit shook his head then neaded his paws into the ground getting comfterable he closed his eyes yawing and was soon asleep
~-~Fleckedkit~-~
