Chapter One
Swiftkit caught the Moss-ball as it flew by and pawed it toward Brightkit who didn't see it coming and it hit her in the back of the head, the she-cat turned around spitting her dissapruval. Swiftkit said sorry and he hurried off to the nursery calling to Goldenflower saying, "I'm hungry" so Goldenflower walked over to the fresh-kill pile and picked out a plump juicy squirrel for him. He gulped down his part and he walked over to Brightkit and sat down next to the orange and white she-cat and watched her catch a moth in a perfect hunter's crouch as she sprang into the air and caught it on her way down. He praised her and asked where she learned that move, she said that she watched her father, Thornpelt do it a million times. She said that she has been waiting to try it out on a moth. He waited as she caught two more and then he retreated to the nursery to get some rest. He woke up in the morning to Pinestar gathering the clan beneath the high rock for a clan meeting. Goldenflower hurried to the nursery and cleaned him till his fur glowed. He asked, "Why are you cleaning me?" She looked at the high rock and he understood immediately, he was going to be an apprentice! He stood tall as Pinestar called to his clan, "Today we make Thunderclan stronger as we make new apprentices, Swiftkit step foward" Swiftkit swelled wwith pride as he stepped foward to receive his apprentice name. Pinestar greeted him with a nod and said, "From this moment on you will be known as Swiftpaw." His clanmates called out his name, especially Brightkit. Pinestar called up Poppyflower and said, "Poppyflower, I expect you to pass down your loyakty, courage, and your generosity to your new apprentice." Swiftpaw turned to his mentor as she welcomed him into the clan as an apprentice.
