Dovepaw's Ceramony

[[Rain]]

Rainstar called her clan to the high rock. She signaled Dovepaw with a nod to come. "I, Rainstar, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend him to you as a warrior in his turn. Dovepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and protect and defend this Clan, even at the cost of your life?"

[Pale*]

Finally, after the long awaited time, Dovepaw's ceremony had come. Nightstorm was slightly saddened by the end of the apprenticeship. He'd grown very fond of his apprentice, and would miss her company greatly. Now, he would go back into seclusion, once more. Before Dovepaw, he had been nearly a loner. Long ago, he fell in love with a RiverClan warrior, who didn't return his feelings in the end.

Passionpaw paused, her paw half-raised to meet her tounge. She smiled slightly and gave her ear a final stroke before joining the circle of cats, gathering around for Dovepaws ceremony. She flicked her tail, excited for Dovepaw, and already dreaming about the day when she would become a warrior...

Silversnow's sapphire eyes gleamed in pride and delight as she observed Dovepaw's ceremony taking place. Dovepaw was one of her best friends, even thought she was only an apprentice. She heaved a big smile and purred at her, wishing her good luck. Silversnow spotted Passionpaw in the distance and headed towards her. "Hey" the ivory warrior meowed kindly, but her gaze was still on Dovepaw.

[warriorcatsgirl]

"I do." Dovepaw gazed at Nightstorm. Her mentor would still be her friend, even though they would never share the apprentice-mentor bond once more.

[Mikita]

Passionpaw turned her gaze to Silversnow, a smile appearing. "Hello, Silversnow." she greeted quietly, one ear sill turned to where the ceremony was taking place. She slid over a few inches so Silversnow could sit if she wanted to.

[winterleaf]

Silversnow purred gratefully and sat down, her eyes facing the clearing and Dovepaw. "I wonder what her warrior name will be?" she meowed.

[Mikita]

Passionpaw smiled thoughtfully. "I don't know... Dovewing or Doveflight come to mind." she whispered.

[winterleaf]

"Those are good names!" Silversnow praised. "How about Dovemoon?"

[Thornpaw]

Hawkpaw arrived, late as usual. He gave Dovepaw a quick lick of support and padded to sit next to Silversnow thoughts racing by him. He and Dovepaw first met on a hunt, she was a kit, a very feisty and strong willed one that is. She had caught the first catch of the patrol. He beamed with pride, smoothing back his pelt with a quick lick to his chest. "Good luck dove." he whispered quietly, lifting his eyes up to the azure sky.

[warriorcatsgirl]

"Thanks Hawk," she mewed as she came past, closer and closer to her leader. Finally, she was right near Rainstar. She waited for Rainstar to announce her name and make her a warrior.

[[Rain]]

Rainstar nodded and took a deep breathe. "Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Dovepaw, from this moment you will be known as Dovewing. StarClan honors your determenation and your hope, and we welcome you as a full warrior of WindClan."
Rainstar rested her muzzle atop of the new warrior's head.

((heh it is Wing sorry about that))

[Mikita]

Passionpaw opened her mouth to reply to Silversnow, then closed it again to hear Rainstar speak. Her eyes glowed as Dovepaw... Dovewing was announced a warrior. "Dovewing!" she breathed, as if testing it on her tounge. Then she joined the clan in the chanting of the new name. "Dovewing Dovewing Dovewing!"

((Sorry my fault - Rain))

[warriorcatsgirl]

"Thankyou Rainstar..." Dovewing spoke as she leapt down to join her friends.
She spotted Passionpaw and Silversnow close by, and was searching for Thornpaw. She spooted him, and spoke, "Thornpaw! That felt amazing!"

[Thornpaw]

((do you mean Hawkpaw?))

Hawkpaw bounded up to his friend, pride radiating in his eyes. "Congratulations Dovewing! You did great!" He rubbed his fur against hers only to find he was shaking with excitement. "Good luck sitting vigil tonight, the moon is almost full it going to be a beautiful!" His fiery red tail flicked back and forth eagerly awaiting the day he became a warrior.
