Today was going to be a good day, Thornstar could feel it in his bones. It was warm, not cold at all, and there was a light breeze rolling about, making sure that no one would suffer in case it got too hot. Thornstar, leader of Skyclan, felt that today was going to be perfect. A perfect day for training, that is. Yes, he was sure all the apprentices would each get some training in today, especially since everyone was going to be in high spirits, because of his announcement. It wasn't everyday the Clan made three kits into apprentices and two apprentices into warriors, after all. No, today was a special day! A good day.
And Thornstar wasn't going to let it go wasted, not at all. He wanted this meeting to go quickly, so the new apprentices and warriors could get on with their duties. If the day was wasted all because of this meeting, or cats taking too long to appear, well, Thornstar would just absolutely be furious. He had put a lot of his time and effort into figuring out who would mentor Rowankit, Elmkit, and Leopardkit, his Clan could show some appreciation by showing up on time.
And if the kits in question didn't show up punctually, (not to mention the two apprentices), well, then he would just have their ceremony postponed. It would only be fair.
(Thornstar's obsessiveness of punctuality and perfection was rather well known, though, so hopefully his Clan would show up on time.)
Flicking his tail impatiently, the mottled brown tabby looked down from his perch, his yellow eyes sweeping out across his Clan, searching out for five special cats.
They better hurry up, he wouldn't wait forever.[/color]

Elmkit was excited, not just excited excited but like, super excited! He had been waiting for this day for like, ever! It was gonna be great, like really really great! His dad had told him all about being a warrior, so he did his momma, too! And it sounded so fun and great but, he just had to be an apprentice first! He was hoping he got a nice mentor, someone super cute and that would teach him everything~ Maybe they'd be nice and would let Elmkit style their fur because, frankly, some of the cats around here were just so drab! They all needed a good dose of styling, if you asked him. Someone to pretty them up, clean their fur, press it back and all that. Not everyone appreciated his wonderful tips though but, that was alright. Elmkit would convince them eventually!
At least his siblings let him style them up! That was good, right? Right!
But, then again, Leopardkit was so hard to style, she always got so dirty! It wasn't cool or cute at all! He always had to start over with her! It just wasn't fair-
Which made Elmkit think, his dad had said apprentices got dirty, which made him kind of nervous. He wanted to a great warrior and apprentice but, he wanted to look fabulously good, too! How could he do that if he had to get dirty all the time? He'd just have to take extra time to make himself look good, that's all! Yup, he'd be fine~
Right?....
Right!
”Mama, it's time! It's the apprentice ceremony, I just know it is!” Beaming, little Elmkit nudged his mother before moving onto his two sisters, bouncing with each step.
”Come onnn! We have to go!~” Giving himself a last minute styling, the little tom darted out of the nursery and made his way down towards the rock pile, careful not to get himself dirty on the way down. Ohhh, he was just so excited!
