Moonkit woke up to a paw prodding her, it was her sister Maplekit, complaining about something “Why won’t you wake up already” She whined “Mother won’t let me out of the nursery without you, everyone’s half convinced you’re dead”

Moonkit opened her eyes and stared down at her black paws, what Maplekit had said was true “Well” Moonkit said crossly “I might die if you keep pestering me” She breathed in the fresh morning air, dawn patrol was coming back “But fine, I’ll come”

The two sisters charged over to the fresh-kill pile and chose a large mouse to share, Maplekit let out a small burp and Moonkit giggled “What happened to manners?” She teased gently

”I don’t have to worry about manners until I’m an apprentice” Maplekit defended herself playfully “Which won’t be for two moons”

Moonkit uncomfortably remembered her dream and quickly spoke “I want to go do something, see you later” She raced off to the medicine den before Maplekit could ask “Catmintpelt?” A brown and gray head poked out off a hole

”Hi Moonkit!” Catmintpelt mewed cheerfully “Does your mother or sister have a fever” What Moonkit liked about her is that she didn’t treat kits like they were dumber then warriors

”No it’s just, I had a dream” Moonkit went on to explain the cat in her dream she had guessed was Hollyleaf “What do you think?” Catmintpelt thought for a second then responded.

”I think you should be a medicine cat.” Catmintpelt smiled “I was waiting for you to have a dream like this and now it’s finally happened”

A look of horror crept on to Moonkit’s face “B-but, I don’t want to be a medicine cat, I would never have kits!” Moonkit continued “And what about Sparrowkit?”

”I’ll leave you to think about it” Catmintpelt started sorting herbs again “Off you go now” Moonkit scrambled out of the nursery at top speed. *Oh no* She thought *What am I going to do?*

New sunlight shone on the dew, reflecting on to Moonkit’s eyes, it would have been beautiful but it was bright. She remembered how Sparrowkit and his siblings had been apprenticed a moon ago and today she was being apprenticed.

As Yewstar called for the Clan to gather, Moonkit silently listed all the cats who could be her mentor. Maplekit and Moonkit bounded to the clearing.

”Moonkit” Yewstar called “Do you promise to...” At that point she stopped listening and replied “I do” then Yewstar continued “Your mentor will be” She silently made a prayer to StarClan for her mentor to be Nightleaf “Catmintpelt” The world seemed to collapse as Catmintpelt stepped forward and they touched noses, for Moonpaw, rather reluctantly. It was Maplekit who got Nightleaf.

Moonpaw retreated to the medicine den to sulk but soon fell asleep. A dark cat fell upon her and she screeched
