They grow up so fast...

RACCOONSTAR

Raccoonstar took a deep breath. He had noticed how well Falconpaw and Hazelpaw were doing lately. They were ready to become warriors. Raccoonstar took another deep breath and leapt onto a high rock. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey come forth." Raccoonstar yowled confidently. He briefly eyed the scarred apprentice and the hazel-furred apprentice, but covered it up easily by glancing out on the rest of his Clan as well. "It is time for two apprentices to reach warrior status. Let Falconpaw and Hazelpaw come forward. Falconpaw, do you swear to protect your Clan with your life?" The small, scarred apprentice nodded and said, "I do."
"Then from this day forth, you shall be known as Falconcry. May StarClan light your path." Raccoonstar smiled as the Clan cheered.
"Falconcry! Falconcry!"
Raccoonstar turned to Hazelpaw. "Hazelpaw. Do you swear to protect your Clan with your life?" Raccoonstar questioned. He knew what she would say, but the ancient tradition called for it. His gaze was unfathomably straight.

Hazelpaw

It was the day she had been waiting for since the moment she was born -or at least since she had become self-aware-, the day that she would remember for the rest of her life. Her Warrior Ceremony! Hazelpaw padded up to the clan's meeting place as Raccoonstar's voice rang loud and strong in her ears. There was a certain quality to her walk, a quality that had never been there before. She wanted to race over to the leader, but forced herself to remain calm and dignified. It wasn't an easy feat; never had she been so thrilled, so exhilarated.

Falconpaw said his vows, and Racconstar dubbed him "Falconcry". Hazelpaw quivered with anticipation. What would her name be? She lifted her gaze from her paws to see Racconstar standing in front of her, his eyes locked with her own. His teeth glistened like snow against his dark fur as he said the traditional words: "Hazelpaw. Do you swear to protect your Clan with your life?"

Hazelpaw's answer came without a moment of hesitation. Her voice rang with the determined stubbornness that she was known for, a trait that would allow her to become the best warrior she could be. "I do," she replied. And she meant it.

RACCOONSTAR

Raccoonstar smiled. "Then from this day forth, you shall be known as Hazelfrost. May StarClan light your path." Raccoonstar yowled. The Clan cheered again.
"Hazelfrost! Hazelfrost!" they cried with joy. And then it was over. Both were warriors, and Falconpaw; no, Falconcry now; almost padded to the warriors' den. "Don't forget your silent vigil. Both of you. And I'm sure you will be great warriors, and I am thankful you made it this far." Raccoonstar gently reminded. Raccoonstar smiled again and padded back to his den.

How lucky am I? Raccoonstar thought. To be able to name a warrior like that. Give them a name to go by. StarClan, take one of my lives now if this isn't the best position ever. It's hard work, but still the best. Raccoonstar sighed and fell to sleep, who's blackness transformed into dreamscape. He was running along with Moonfire, Falconcry, and Hazelfrost. They were running through a starry meadow, without a care in the world.
