Darkfinch's Story - Chapter 20

"You both did very well," said Cinderstar. "Darkpaw come and we shall hold your ceremony at sun high." called Cinderstar. Darkpaw nodded and padded after his leader. When they got back to the camp Darkenberry was waiting. "We are going to hold his ceremony at sun high." Cinderstar told Darkenberry. Darkenberry nodded. Suddenly Darkpaw spoke up, "What about Hollypaw is she going to be made a warrior too?" he asked. "Well I haven't had time to access her skills yet, but she will be made a warrior. I promise that she will catch up to you in the end." Darkpaw looked satisfied and turned away. "Cats of Nightclan!" called Cinderstar. "Today marks a very special moment for a cat. Darkpaw has trained ever since he came to the camp, and it is time to make him a warrior.  I believe that he is ready to become a warrior, and we will honor his bravery and fighting skill. Darkpaw do you promise to protect Nightclan, and make the right decision for the outcome of the clan if you are chosen to help in making decision." Darkpaw nodded and his answer rang out through the clan, "I promise I will Cinderstar." Cinderstar nodded. "From this moment on Darkpaw you will be known Darkfinch, I know you will serve Nightclan as a loyal warrior for a long time." Darkfinch nodded proudly, while Hollypaw watched with envy from the side with her mentor. Suddenly Cattail came up to Darkfinch and said, "Remember you will be sleeping the warrior den tonight." With those words Hollypaw flung herself at her brother.
