Yowled the black-and-white IslandClan leader. Four cats stood behind her with nervous looks on their faces.
"Today we shall be welcoming four new Clanmates into IslandClan; Flora, Eagle, Vixi, and Blaze - all rougues who want to join us.'
Shadowstar turned sharply to face a grey-and-orange tabby tom, 'Blaze, do you promise to uphold the Warrior code and protect your Clan even at the cost of your life?'
"I do." Blaze replied without wavering.
"Then from this day forward you shall be known as Firestorm for your pelt mottled with fire and storm. StarClan acknowledges your bravery for joining us.' Shadowstar whirled back the her Clanmates below.
'There are two young cats who are the right age for apprenticeship.'
The Leader's gaze rested on Lionheart.
'Lionheart, I know you shall be a strong mentor for Flora. Flora, from this day until your Warrior Ceremony you will be known as Flowerpaw.'
Mentor and Apprentice touched noses.
'Streamcloud, you have not yet had an apprentice. I hope you will pass everything you know to Eagle.'
Shadowstar briefly smiled at her daughter and then turned to Eagle.
'Young one, from this day until your Warrior Ceremony you will be known as Eaglepaw.'
Eaglepaw and Streamcloud did likewise as Flowerpaw and Lionheart, and Shadowstar continued, her gaze softening as she faced a small calico kit.
'Last but not least, Vixi also wishes to join. Vixi, from this day until your Apprentice Ceremony you will be known as Fox-kit. Fawnstream has her paws full at this time, but you are past the age of needing milk - so I will take care of you until you are apprenticed.
Meeting Dismissed.'

Foxkit grinned, tail flicking from side to side as she gazed around camp in absolute wonder.
