It was a little past moonhigh but no one was in their dens. Everyone knew it was time for Birchkit's apprentice ceromony. Everyone eagerly awaited Icestars call to come and gather in the center of the clearing. They did not have to wait long a few minutes later Icestar indeed came over to the center of the clearing, with Birchkit trailing along after him. His coat shown after being thougholy cleaned and washed. Icestar's voice rang out into the cool crisp autumn air. All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here for a clan ceromony. As the cats crept out into the night Birchkit bounced up and down with eagerness. Once every cat had appered Icestar started. Blackwhisker, you are now ready to take on an apprentice. You will be mentor to Birchpaw. Blackwhisker, you have shown yourself to be a warrior of Honesty and virtue. I'm sure you will pass on all you know to this apprentice. Blackwhisker was looking very proud and happy walked up to Birchpaw and touched noses with the new apprentice. Birchpaw did the same and then they retired to the other side of the clearing.
