Leafpaws Apprenticeship

[HappyNoodleBoy]

Starfire woke with a strange excitement buzzing in his head. But underneath his excitement was a cold fear gripping his heart. What if he wasn't a good mentor.
Today is the first day I will train leafkit, he thought. "No," he said aloud, "it's leafpaw now. He purred at the memory of leafkits apprentice ceremony.
He stepped out into the bright morning sunshine and looked around for leafpaw. He started for the nursery, but shook his head and turned towards the apprentice den. He noticed leafpaw outside staring at him, purring with amusement.
Starfire walked over to her and hissed playfully. He then flicked her with his tail and walked away, signaling for her to follow him. When they left the camp, Starfire turned and said "today, i only want to show you our boundaries, it will be your job as a warrior to protect them and send away any intruders."
They walked away together through the woods, occasionally stopping sofireheart could explain something. Leafkit asked plenty of questions, and took in everything fireheart said.
At the end of the day, both cats walked into the camp exhausted. They briefly touched noses and Fireheart praised leafpaw for all of her hard work already. Fireheart crept into the den and lay down. He fell asleep purring.

Leafpaw went wearily into the nursery. Shadefoot gave her a look and
Leafpaw suddenly remembered.
Oops!
She bowed her head and left embarresed. She went into the Apprentice den.
She was surprised to see Kara there. "Kara? What are you doing here?" then she
realized the pretty white cat wasn't Kara.
"Quiverwhisker?" she whispered.
The she-cat turned around.
"I've come to warn you of---" she stopped, as Starfire came in
and she disapeared.

Starfire looked at the bewildered look in leafpaws eyes and said, "whats wrong?.

[XxWillowcloud X NightfeatherxX]

Leafpaw whipped around. She looked into Starfire's eyes, and gave him
a look to signal him to follow her.
He lead her to the place out side camp they'd met many times when Leafkit had
her dreams.
She sat under the giant oak and motioned him to sit in front of her.
"For the past few nights, Quiverwhisker has been trying to tell me something.
But my dreams are only blacks and blues. She keeps trying to tell me in the waking world.
But so far someone has inturrupted her. I must go to Moonpool." She anounced. "Can you, please come with me?" Leafpaw begged.

"You are my apprentice, of course i will help you." Fireheart said. You still need training though.

[XxWillowcloud X NightfeatherxX]

Fireheart...?

[HappyNoodleBoy]

Firehearts ears perked up."You are only an apprentice, and a very young one, you have not told me everything i need to know to help you. When you tell me the rest, i may help."

"But do you not think that you need to be trained more before you go on some quest to Starclan knows where and possibly die." He was yelling by the time he was done. He said softly, "What would I do if anything happened to you."

[XxWillowcloud X NightfeatherxX]

"But how do you know what is starclan-knows-where is not right under our noses? If something happens to our clan what would both of us ever do? We would be nothing." she said pointedly.

[HappyNoodleBoy]

"We are just as great a part of this clan as any leader."

[XxWillowcloud X NightfeatherxX]

"Please Starfire. I have been there before and nothing has happended so badly. I can do this." she said determidly.

Starfire sighed resignedly. "OK but whatever happens in the future, be careful."
