  I sit farther away from the other kits, aware of their cold gaze piercing my fur. Eaglekit comes over and gives me a friendly shove. I don't do anything, no reaction at all. Eaglekit sighs and nudges me harder this time. This time, I almost fall over.
  "Hey, whatcha doing?" He mewed. I glance up to him.
  "Honestly, I'm not sure," I replied glumly. "The other kits stare at me all the time, and none of them ever even try to become friends with me! Sometimes I think this Clan hates me."
 
  "No, don't think that," Eaglekit mewed. "They just aren't..."
 
  "...used to me."
 
  "Let's just say they can't take in how awesome you are."

  "I could live with that."

  Eaglekit laughed and stood up. "Let's go meet some of the other kits!" I slowly nod, uneasy about what could happen. I follow Eaglekit over to a small group of kits, staying a little ways behind him. Eaglekit stops abruptly, and I bump into his back leg.
 
  "Hey," Eaglekit greets the kits, "I want you to meet Geckokit!" The other kits glared at me, a few whispering to each other. One kit, a black she-cat with sky blue eyes, pushes through the group. She's about my age, so I'm feeling pretty happy. She shoots a glance at the group and turns to me with a warm smile.
 
  "Hi Geckokit," she mewed. "I'm Nightkit, Eaglekit and Ghostkit's sister. Pleased to meet you!" I feel my cheeks grow warm.
 
"H-Hi Nightkit," I meow. "Pleasure's all mine!"
 
  Nightkit begins to say something when Ghostkit interfered. He pushed through, making a poor kit come crashing into the ground.
  "Nightkit, what did I tell you about being seen with no good punks?" Ghostkit stared at me with icy blue eyes. Nightkit rolled her eyes and turned to him. She sighed.
  "You're right," she said carelessly. I blinked in surprise. "I shouldn't hang out with no good punks." Nightkit turned to me, yowling so that Ghostkit could hear, "Let's go Geckokit, Ghostkit is being a no good punk."
  I'm tempted to run up to Ghostkit and laugh in his face, but he's already embarrassed enough. Nightkit flicks her tail in my face and beckons me away. Eaglekit is confronting his little brother, obviously telling him off. I follow my new friend to the side of the nursery, where I had fun until sun drown.


  I woke up a few days later with a smile. Nightkit and I had become the best of friends since we were first introduced. Today, she told me that I was to officially meet the other kits during the ceremony for her brothers. It was sun high, and the rays warmed the camp. I meet Nightkit outside the nursery, where all the apprentices and kits are gathering. Nightkit giggles and waves me on.
  She stopped next to three kits. The largest, a black tom with a white chest, paws, chin, ears, and tail tip, was Charcoalkit. The smallest of the bunch, Cloudkit, was a dappled gray she-cat with sharp green eyes. The third, Bramblekit, was a golden-orange tom with amber eyes. We all soon became good friends.
  We were all finishing the conversation when BrightSun yowled for a meeting. The five of us sat beneath the High Stump, eagerly watching Ghostkit and Eaglekit become apprentices. Or, at least Eaglekit. BrightSun smiled at each of them and began.
 
  "We have all gathered here today to see two new additions into the apprentice den. We shall start with the oldest, Eaglekit." Eaglekit stepped forward and held his head high.
  "Eaglekit, do you promise to obey your mentors' every command and give your life if ever required?"
  Eaglekit gave a quick nod. "I do!"
 
  "Then from now on, until you receive your Warrior Name, I dub you Eaglepaw." The Clan erupted in yowls of "Eaglepaw! Eaglepaw! Eaglepaw!" Eaglepaw beamed at the crowd, which quickly quieted down.
 
  "Your mentor, until you have finished your training, will be ShakingLeaves. ShakingLeaves, you have been taught well by GorgeFalls, and I expect you to pass on some of the excellence."

  My father bowed his head and padded over to Eaglepaw. We all looked up at BrightSun and Ghostkit. The tom looked up at BrightSun.
  "Ghostkit, do you promise to obey your mentors' every command and give your life if ever required?"
  Ghostkit rolled his eyes. "Of course!"
 
  BrightSun's smile faded some. "Then from now on, until you receive your Warrior Name, you shall be known as Ghostpaw!" The cats of MountianClan chanted Ghostpaw's name this time, and Ghostpaw obviously enjoyed the attention.

  "Your mentor, until you have finished your training, will be Hiss. Hiss, I know that you are a good teacher, so I trust you train him well."

  Hiss smirked and and met with her new apprentice. BrightSun silenced everyone quickly.

  "I have an announcement. I have spoken with StarClan, and I have decided that we will, from now on, have our leader's names end with 'star'. Not a big change, but nonetheless important. Meeting dismissed."
  I turn to Nightkit, who in return looks at me with a smile.

  "Isn't this great? This means we'll be apprentices soon as well!"

  I nod. "Yeah! I wonder who my mentor will be."

  "Yeah. Let's go see the rest of the kits!"

  "Okay!"
The beginning and Nightkit's comeback I don't like :no:.

I like Nightkit xD she's cute. Yay for Eaglepaw and Ghostpaw! :D

I like Nightkit's comeback! BTW why is Nightkit not becoming an apprentice, and why is Geckokit never with Dewkit?
