Book 9 - Chapter 6 - Part 2

(Continuing the mentors challenge) Question 3…….Question 10. All 3 groups raced back to camp and finished marking their scores on their leaf. Then the 3 leaders brought the leaves to Berrystar who counted the scores. Berrystar turned to the assembled clan. "We have a winner. Flowerfur with 56 points. Then Mousetail with 54 points and then Seedwhisker with 51 points." announced Berrystar. The other leaders jumped up beside him and continued speaking, "We honor each of our warriors and elders for their time as a mentor. For without mentors the young cats would not be able to learn the skills of a proper Fishclan warrior. Without the mentors to teach the apprentices they ways of a Fishclan warrior the skills of Fishclan might not survive through the generations. Without the mentors the skills of Fishclan wouldn't be kept alive.  We thank each of the warriors in turn for being mentors and passing on the skills that were fought to you by your mentor. If there were no mentors to teach the skills to the newest cats then the cats wouldn't learn what it is like to be a true Fishclan apprentice and for that we thank you." said Cedarstar. All the warriors nodded their thanks to the clan and their respect to the clan leaders. "We will have the next ompetition tomorrow. The kits will be taking part in a competition tomorrow. It is up to queen however (Said Berrystar nodding to Appledawn while he spoke) if the kits are to leave the camp with an experienced warrior or stay in the camp and roam without a warrior. Appledawn nodded and padded back to the nursery with Birchtail by her side.
