"Great, I feel so needed" Turtlepaw muttered under his breath. "Come, the ceremony is about to start." Rockfall mewed. The two friends padded to the center of Turtlepaw's old camp.
Turtlepaw stopped in his tracks, with a look of horror on his face. For there, standing atop the CenterStone was Icestar.

"Maybe another time." Snowfoot mewed. "But for now we are going to train."

Hawksight was teaching Turtlepaw hunting tactics.

Icepaw grumbled as she gathered moss. "Who put thorns in his den?"

"Welcome, Turtlepaw." Icestar greeted with coldness in her voice. "Since this is not a matter I want to wast my time on, I will just give you your name." She paused, "You shall now be known as Turtlebrain."

"Let's practice hunting first." Snowfoot answered.

Turtlepaw awoke with a shock. He shook his head to try to get the dream out of his head. Padding out of the apprentice den, he headed to find Sunpelt.

Adelio climbed a tree to rest.

Icepaw brought the moss to the elders' den, "Okay, here's your [size=7pt]stupid[/size] moss." Icepaw meowed, trying to make sure elders didn't hear the word 'stupid'.

"I don't know, this moss seems damp." Frostmoon teased.

"Oh, just a weird dream, that's all." Turtlepaw sighed. "I'm ready to train now."

"Okay, let me see your hunting crouch." Snowfoot said as she guided Leafpaw into position with her tail.

"You're doing well." Snowfoot complemented. "Now, try stalking."

"Come on, Turtlepaw," Hawksight chided, "you can do better than that." Turtlepaw was having trouble with some of his tactics. "Okay, I guess." Turtlepaw sighed. "Have some confidence." Hawksight encouraged.

"Can I train now?" Icepaw asked after cleaning the elders' den. "No, it's getting late." Rumblestar told her, "The sun is going down."

"Your doing well." Snowfoot mewed. "But I think it's time to head back to camp."

Rockpaw and Eaglewing returned to camp.

Turtlepaw and Hawksight also returned.

Icepaw was upset she didn't get to train, but decided to find Fluffypaw rather than sulk.

Icepaw padded into the apprentices' den when she couldn't find Fluffypaw. She noticed with annoyance that Rockpaw and Turtlepaw were chatting about their day. Rockpaw looked up, "Hey, Icepaw. How did your day go?" He asked. "Don't get me started." Icepaw replied.

Icepaw was struggling to go to sleep. the day had been full of excitement, both good and bad.
She was glad to be an apprentice, but it sure was embarrassing to clean the elders' den the first day. It seemed like all she could do was lie down and listen to the other apprentices' breathing, especially Rockpaw's. She smiled as her sleepy eyes finally shut.

OOC: Hopefully no one else takes it the wrong way though. It's creepy to think that someone would find comfort in another's breathing. Well, then again, it's a sign of life and living, and I guess that's pretty comforting.

Pinefur peered into the apprentices' den. "Wake up, Fluffypaw. We're going hunting." He whispered. "And, Icepaw, Rumblestar wants you to see him."

"I guess I can allow you to do that." Pinefur answered. "But we're going hunting, so your fur will probably get messy again."

"Will you need help with anything?" Adelio asked Kineks

Icepaw padded over to the CenterStone. "Do you know where my father is?" she asked Riverpelt "He's in his den, don't bother him." Riverpelt mewed.

As soon as Riverpelt left, Icepaw sneaked towards her father's den. All of a sudden, she heard two voices arguing. She recognized the voices as Rumblestar and Cragtooth.

OOC: They're not speaking overly loud, so only Icepaw can hear them.
