DON'T YOU GIVE ME UP, PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP
it was finally time. there was a lot to address this meeting and chilledstar did not want to waste any time. they had too much to do, and stars it seemed like they didn't have enough time to do it. with a huff, they find themself back upon the highest point within camp. they feel weird being back up here, given the fact that the last time they had been, their camp was invaded and... they closed their eyes before calling out to the clan below them, voice calm and steady, yet loud and filled with authority.
"shadowclan! it is time for another meeting! please, join me beneath the clouds."
they watched for a moment as the clouds moved within the sky, allowing the sun to peak every so often before they just turned back to the clan with a serious look on their face.
"we have been through quite a bit, shadowclan. each one of you standing here have shown a level of courage and bravery that no other clan could even begin to have. starclan showed us yet another challenge and we have overcome because of you all. strongly united, shadowclan will continue to do so. i am proud of you. the bears have left, and with a little luck, they won't be coming back. now its time to rebuild our home."
they figure a little motivation is a good place to start as any. now. onto the next thing.
"we... lost a great apprentice. i'm sure we are all saddened or shocked by the loss of poppypaw. the camp will not be the same without her. but she... she's watching over us now. she will not be forgotten, especially by those closest to her. but not all of the news we have is sad.
starlingheart and forestshade have both given birth to their kits. healthy as can be, flintkit, nettlekit, ghostkit, screechkit, briarkit, and sweetkit. may the stars bless each and every one of you, little ones."
they don't expect the stars to listen, but for the kits sake... they could hope.
"we have... new editions to the clan. wheat and loki. in order to stay within this clan, I must be able to... trust... that you will work for it. emberkit, though you are not a new edition to this clan, it is time for your apprenticeship to begin. do you promise to stay loyal to shadowclan and begin your journey as an apprentice, so that you may climb your way to warriorhood?"
they would wait for any semblance of an answer before continuing.
"good. loki, your name is fit for that of a loner. for this reason, your name will now be tadpolepaw. your mentor is needledrift. i trust that needledrift will be a good mentor to you. learn well. wheat, you will now be known as wheatpaw, mentored by barkbite. I hope you learn to use your ears and less of your tongue. emberkit... you will now be known as emberpaw. your mentor will be ribbitleap. trust in yourself. you will be a great warrior one day. ribbitleap... i know that you are the best cat for this responsibility. do not prove me wrong."
there is but a pause before they continue.
"yarrowpaw. your mentor leafjaw has not be a good fit to you. for one reason or another you simply do not mesh and for this reason, your mentor will now be brackenlight. I hope this one trains you more effectively than the last.
loampaw... please step forward. it is time for your apprenticeship to be over. do you promise to fight for, hunt for, and protect this clan, even if it may cost you your life? do you promise to uphold the code and be an honorable warrior of shadowclan?"
they wait once more.
"then from this day forward, you shall be known as loampelt, named for your ability to blend in, as your coat does. you've done well."
it feels like so long since they've been able to make an apprentice a warrior. it was long overdue. but no one else had been ready... no one else that was ready had been alive.
"on one last note, geckoscreech has chosen to step down as a lead warrior. this is not a decision she should be hated for. she will still be around and willing to help in any way she can. and with that, this meeting is dismissed. we've got a lot of work to do, here."
they gestured towards the disheveled camp before making their way to clean up a den, or two.
