RiverClan Skyridge

[Leopardblaze]

Leopardblaze gave Ivyshine a smile, her whiskers twitching in amusement at the excited new apprentice, once they had all been introduced to each other. "This is all so exciting isn't it?" she meowed to her friend. After a moment she turned to Lotuspaw and meowed, "How about some battle training later?"

Dusktail padded out of the elders' den and sat near the back, in a sunny patch of gorund.

"I do," came Goosepaw's response. His voice was tight, strained, but it was strong as well. He glanced over at Pebblepaw and Sootpaw, hearing them voice their pledge as well.

Grizzlybug smiled when he heard that he was to have an apprentice and trotted up to her. “That’s good to hear,” he responded and asked, “how much have you learned, exactly?” He didn’t care that she was old for an apprentice, Grizz wasn’t the judgmental type. Besides, he was fairly excited to have an apprentice.

(Aww....I love Grizz, also cute nickname)
Eveningpaw flicked her tail,” I am great at hunting land prey, can swim fine, not the best at fishing, and I’m a bit rusty at my battle training.” she meowed hoping she didn’t forget anything involved with training.

@Zesty Mango
(awe, thanks!!)
Grizz nodded thoughtfully as she spoke and flicked his tail as he thought of what their training regime could be. “Alright, how about we go hunting after the meeting so I can ascertain your skill- afterwards we can sit by the pond for a bit and I can give you some pointers on fish hunting.” Grizzlybug preferred time hunt land prey himself- the water always made his fur stick to his paw uncomfortably- but he was fairly good at it and didn’t mind doing it when the need arose.

RiverClan Announcement [#liontalks]

"Then by the powers of the Star Cats, I give you your warrior names.

"Goosepaw, from this moment on you will be known as Goosefury [ @Slushie]. The Star Cats honor your fierceness and protectiveness, and we welcome you as a warrior of RiverClan. I will admit.. I had some uncertainty about how you would fare when you joined the Clan, but you have soared well above my expectations. Be proud, Goosefury. You've served RiverClan well and I am glad to call you a Clan-mate.

"Sootpaw, from this moment on you will be known as Sootglare [ @SilentLamb]. The Star Cats honor your strength and resilience, and we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan. You fought well in the raid despite being overwhelmed and have proven yourself to be loyal and hardy.. though I should let you know, I'm pulling your leg. Your name is actually Sootclaw, I'd feel awful if I seriously named you glare. We have enough of the 'lare' as it is with Sootfather around."

Now onto the bundle of fat known as Pebblepaw.

"Pebblepaw, from this moment on you will be known as Pebblebass--"

Abruptly, Lionstar was interrupted by Firehawk suddenly scaling the Streamstone to give him a good whack across his head with a low, threatening hiss. Lionstar let out an unhappy grumble before he resumed. What a party pooper! Pebblebass would have been perfect for the only cat in RiverClan to eat literally everything he could get his mouth on.. stupid bottom feeder.

"From this moment on you will be known as Pebblepudge [ @Dust]. The Star Cats honor your squishy-ness and intelligence, and we welcome you as a full warrior of RiverClan. You did well in jumping to the defense of your Clan-mates, and I know your ceremony has been long overdue." It had been a while since Pigeonchirp received her name, only to disappear.. and before that, Graypaw's disappearance and death.

"You've all done well to overcome the challenges thrown your way. Congratulations to all of you."

Now.. there was one final ceremony to do before he did a few brief announcements. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to do so once the new warriors had a chance to embrace their new names.

[Dawneye]

Dawnkit looked up at the streamstone excitedly thinking to herself as she chanted the new warriors names I can’t believe Duskkit and I will be apprentices in just a moon! she wiggled excitedly. Her paws dancing around beneath her as she was full of energy “PebblePudge! Goosefury! Sootclaw!” (open)

[Quasar]

Snowpaw chanted the names of the new warriors enthusiastically, "Pebblepudge! Goosefury! Sootglare! she cheered loudly, she'd never seen a warrior ceremony before!

----

Badgerpaw looked around the clearing, unsure of what to do. She saw a bunch of cats chanting the new names, so she quietly did so as well.

[ @Shimm @SilentLamb ]

Goosefury.

His name was Goosefury.

For the first time since the raid, a smile broke out across his muzzle. He was a warrior now. It had been a rough trek, that was for certain. But it had been worth it, because now he was a warrior. And cats were calling his name, cheering him on. Noto staring in horror, or turning away. They were cheering for him.
He nudged the newly named Sootclaw gently with one paw, then turned to look back at Shimmeringpool, eyes sparkling
