.Yellowfang wasbeside her, and when all the cats were assembled it was the old medicine cat who spoke first. Cats of ThunderClan, she rasped,  I have an announcement to make.As you know, I am not a youngcat.It s time I took an apprentice.So I ve chosen the only cat I can put up with. Yellowfang let out anamused purr. And the only cat who can put up with me.Your next medicine cat will be Cinderpaw.A chorus of pleased meows broke out.Cinderpaw sat at the foot of the rock, her eyes shining and herfur sleekly groomed.She lowered her head shyly as the Clan congratulated her. Cinderpaw. Bluestar made herself heard above the noise. Do you accept the post of apprentice toYellowfang?Cinderpaw lifted her head to look up at her leader. Yes, Bluestar. Then at the half moon you must travel to Mothermouth, to be accepted by StarClan before the othermedicine cats.The good wishes of all ThunderClan will go with you.Yellowfang half jumped, half slithered down from the rock, and padded up to Cinderpaw to touch noseswith her.Then the rest of the Clan gathered around the new apprentice.Fireheart caught sight of Brackenpawpressing close to his sister, his eyes glowing with pride, and even Tigerclaw went up to her and meowed a fewwords.It was clear that Cinderpaw was a popular choice for this important position.As he waited to give Cinderpaw his congratulations, Fireheart could not help wishing that all his ownproblems could be solved as smoothly.97 of 167 6/26/2009 8:00 PM WarriorsForestofSecrets file:///H:/E-Books/E/Erin%20Hunter/Erin%20Hunter%20%5BWarriors.CHAPTER 18The sun began to set for the third time since Fireheart had almost drowned.The young warrior was washinghimself outside his den, scraping his tongue across his fur.He kept imagining that he could still taste themuddy water.As he twisted his head to wash his back, he heard the pad of approaching paws, and looked upto see Tigerclaw looming over him. Bluestar wants you to go to the Gathering, the deputy growled. Meet her outside her den and bringSandstorm and Graystripe. He stalked away before Fireheart could reply.Fireheart got up and stretched.Glancing around, he spotted Graystripe and Sandstorm eating beside thepatch of nettles, and hurried over to join them. Bluestar has chosen us to go to the Gathering, heannounced.Sandstorm finished off her blackbird and swiped a pink tongue around her jaws. But can we get to theGathering? she meowed, sounding puzzled. I thought the stream was impossible to cross. Bluestar said StarClan would be angry if we didn t try, Fireheart mewed. She wants to talk to usnow maybe she has a plan.Graystripe spoke through a mouthful of vole. I just hope she doesn t expect us to swim. In spite of hiswords, his eyes shone with excitement as he gulped the rest of the fresh-kill and sprang to his paws.Fireheartknew he must be looking forward to a chance to see Silverstream, and he wondered if they had managed tomeet in the time since he and Graystripe had been caught crossing the river after their ill-fated huntingmission for RiverClan.Fireheart thought of Silverstream s kits, and he wondered how Graystripe would be able to bear seeingthem grow up in another Clan.Would Silverstream ever be able to tell them that Graystripe, the ThunderClanwarrior, was their father? Fireheart tried to put the questions out of his mind as he and his friends crossed theclearing to the Highrock.Bluestar was sitting outside her den, with Whitestorm, Mousefur, and Willowpeltalready by her side.A moment later Tigerclaw and Darkstripe joined them. As you know, the moon is full tonight, Bluestar began when all the cats were gathered around her. Itwill be hard to get to Fourtrees, but StarClan would expect us to do all we can to find a dry route.So I vechosen warriors only this will be no journey for elders or apprentices, or queens expecting kits.Darkstripe,you led a patrol to examine the stream this morning.Report what you found. The water s going down, meowed Darkstripe. But not fast enough.We patrolled as far as theThunderpath, and there s nowhere a cat could cross without swimming. The stream s narrower up there, mewed Willowpelt. Could we jump across? Maybe, if you grew wings, Darkstripe replied. If all you ve got is your own paws&  But that has to be the best place to try, insisted Whitestorm.Bluestar nodded. We ll start there, she decided. Maybe StarClan will lead us to a safe place. Sherose to her paws and led her cats quietly out of the camp.98 of 167 6/26/2009 8:00 PM WarriorsForestofSecrets file:///H:/E-Books/E/Erin%20Hunter/Erin%20Hunter%20%5BWarriors.The sun had gone down, and twilight blurred the shapes of the forest.In the distance an owl hooted, andFireheart could hear the rustle of prey in the undergrowth, but the warriors were too intent on their journey tohunt [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
