(NOTE: There are plenty of my OCs in here! Also containing newer ones such as Autumnpelt, Swiftflight and Ashfeather. The OCs in this fanfiction are those newer ones, but here are my main ones: Jayheart, Cedarkit/fang, Lightkit/heart, Rootkit/claw, Rubykit/fur, Skycloud, Birchpelt, Owlshade, Rainclaw, Sunpaw, Shallowbug, Snakewing, Whitepelt, Nightfur, Crystalpaw, Mumblepaw, Creekstone and Rosepelt. Okay? I may not be caught up with all the series so I'll base this fanfiction on whereever I want. If you dislike this, then read another fanfiction you may enjoy.)

♢♢CHAPTER 1♢♢

The sun of greenleaf shone brightly amongst the forest, making every tree glow with the shining star. A light breeze carried through the forest, stirring with the warmth. Inside the Shadowclan camp, Cedarkit and his brother, Rootkit, were play-fighting. "Feel my wrath, Onestar!" yowled Rootkit. He pounced at his younger brother swiftly, knocking him over. "Never!" Cedarkit spat, playfully and furiously. A golden tabby came up to them, cuffing her paw around Rootkit's side of his face. "Alright, you two," she mewed, her eyes sparkling with amusement. Cedarkit got away from the root colored tom kit and sat up straight. He realized the she-cat was her warrior friend, Birchpelt. Birchpelt was formerly a rogue, friends with the loner Emberwing. She then was taken in by Blackstar and Owlshade, and had two kits who are now apprentices, Crystalpaw and Mumblepaw. "Today is your ceremonies, both of you," Birchpelt continued. Rootkit shot up with excitement. "Ooh, boy! I'm gonna be an apprentice!" he squealed. Cedarkit purred warmly with joy and excitement. Rootkit might've been the oldest kit in his family, but he was often the most enthusiastic, which annoyed most of Shadowclan. Then, Birchpelt added, "and your sisters will also become apprentices too." Rootkit then widened his eyes and crouched down. Lightkit and Rubykit being apprentices with them? Would whoever the mentors are have to handle two apprentices, or would there be one for each of the four?
Lightkit padded out of the nursery, with her sister Rubykit mewling and trotting behind her. Lightkit was the calm and gentle one, though she could get annoyed quite easily. She was Cedarkit, Rootkit, and Rubykit's sister. She was the smallest out of the three others. Rubykit was a fluffy light brown she-kit with ruby green eyes. She was also energetic, but more talkative and quite the nuisance. "But, Lightkit's still a bit too small for being apprenticed, isn't she?" Cedarkit remarked. Lightkit shot a glance at her brother and padded up to him. "Honestly, I don't mind if I don't get apprenticed. I'll be happy that my brothers and sister get apprenticed," she meowed. Rootkit pressed his muzzle into his younger sister's flank. "Nonsense," Birchpelt shook her head. "We have enough mentors of each of you." The five cats heard a yowl sounding from the Highrock, where the Clan leader or sometimes deputy would announce news or instructions to their Clan. "May all cats who are old enough to catch their own prey gather around the Highrock for a Clan meeting," meowed the Shadowclan leader, Rowanstar. Rubykit and Rootkit bounced delightedly to the front of the other cats. "You two may follow," Birchpelt advised Lightkit and Cedarkit. The two kits padded at a medium pace towards their siblings. "The time has come for these four kits to be apprenticed," Rowanstar announced. "Cedarkit, Rootkit, Rubykit and Lightkit, you may come up to the Highrock for your ceremony." The four kits padded to the base of the Highrock. The dark ginger tom looked down on the four. "You all have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to become apprenticed. From this day on, until you reach your warrior names, you will be known as Rootpaw, Cedarpaw, Rubypaw and Lightpaw. Rootpaw, your mentor will be Owlshade, Cedarpaw, your mentor will be Snakewing, Lightpaw, your mentor will be Birchpelt, and Rubypaw, your mentor will be Creekstone. I hope your mentors will pass all they know on to you." Rowanstar turned to the new mentors, and meowed, "Birchpelt, Snakewing, Creekstone and Owlshade, you are ready to take on an apprentice. You have received excellent training from your own mentors, and you have shown yourselves to be trustworthy and brave. You will be the mentors of those four apprentices, and I expect you to pass on all you know to them." The four new apprentices went to touch noses with their mentors. Rubypaw touched noses with Creekstone, Cedarpaw touched noses with Snakewing, Lightpaw touched noses with Birchpelt, and Rootpaw touched noses with Owlshade. The Shadowclan warriors called their names joyfully. "Lightpaw! Rubypaw! Cedarpaw! Rootpaw!" they cheered.

"What are we going to do today, Snakewing?" Cedarpaw asked, trying to keep up with his mentors' swift speed. The pale gray tabby looked down at his apprentice. "We will start off by beginning your hunting tactics," he meowed. Cedarpaw nodded, watching his mentor spot a mouse. "Watch me," he whispered. He crouched, pulling himself back, then pounced on to the mouse and killed it with his claws. Snakewing picked it up with his jaws, then made a hole and buried it in the ground. "We'll come back for this later, and you can take it to the fresh-kill pile," he instructed Cedarpaw. Snakewing sniffed the air, then spotted another mouse. "You try and get that one," he told the apprentice. Cedarpaw nodded and picked up the mouse. He kept his gaze on it, and crouched. He readied himself for the catch, and pounced swiftly on the critter and slashed it with his claws. Cedarpaw picked it up. "Impressive," mewed Snakewing, nodding with pride.
When the sun had started hiding itself behind the trees, Snakewing padded up to his apprentice. "You did well," he commented. "We have plenty of fresh-kill for the Clan now. But when you will be hunting alone, never feed yourself first. Serve the clan, then server yourself." Cedarpaw nodded, his eyes glowing.
