"I, Firestar, leader of ThunderClan call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on these apprentices. They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as a warrior in their turn. Squirrelpaw, lionpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and to protect and defend your Clan, even at the cost of your lives?" "I do!" Chorused the apprentices.

"Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior names. Squirrelpaw, from this moment you will be known as Squirrelflight. And Lionpaw from this moment on you will be known as Liontail. StarClan honors your courage and determination, and we welcome you as full warriors of ThunderClan."

"Liontail, Squirrelflight, Liontail, Squirrelflight!" Thunderclan chanted.

"Your vigil will start at sundown." Firestar told the new warriors.

" Congrats." Stormheart greeted her. "Since your a warrior now, would you like to,to- be my- my, mate?" He asked wordily. She had noticed he seemed excited whenever Graystripe, her mentor, had asked him and his mentor Brackenfur to come on our patrols sometimes, and he would get her prey after patrol, and she even kinda like him that way back, too. But a mate? It was true, she loved him, she wanted to be his mate.

"Yes, of course I do!" She responded excitedly.

"Good I have a fresh ball of moss ready for when your vigil is over." He said. "I'll have to tell Greystripe you already have nest then." He stalked off proudly.

It was moonhigh and Liontail was getting tired. Her sister was half asleep. She prodded her flank to wake her up and Squirrelflight gave her a mean, but thankful glare.

Dawn had come and Greystripe had brought her to her new nest, beside Stormhearts. She fell asleep quickly. She had a small dream about her future. She was standing on the highrock, with her mate and deputy, Stormheart, and her sister and medicine cat Leafpool. She had called a clan meeting to announce the arrival of her sister, Squirrelflight and brambleclaws kits, Lionkit, Jaykit, and Hollykit. And her own kits warriors ceremonies. Stormheart looked prouder than any cat shed ever seen. And suddenly she awoke with a sharp prod in her side, it was Stormheart. "Come on I got you on sunhigh patrol with me Thornclaw, Cloudtail, and Rainwhisker." He said with a slight of annoyance but excited for a patrol with his mate. "Ok, I'm coming." She responded playfully.
