Ooc: xD Lightfur. Nuff said.
Bic:
Wildstar could almost see the tension between the newly named apprentice and mentor melting away. It would be great to see both cats develop into even greater warriors. Still, the ceremonies weren't over yet, and her almost-brother's moment of reckoning had come. 'StarClan help us all,' she thought.
"MountainClan is blessed with more than one ceremony today, and so I call Hawkkit forward. You have shown great eagerness to become an apprentice, and MountainClan will benefit highly from your enthusiasm. StarClan has shown me that your greatest ally* will be Falcontail, and so I have chosen him as your mentor."
The orange tabby could feel his stomach drop and his heart rise to his throat. His punishment for running away from StormClan to go adventuring was finally being delivered. He almost started wondering what Eagleheart's demise would be, but remembered this was hardly the time.
Standing stiffly, Falcontail marched to the front, as though waiting for the firing squad** and sat down, waiting for the final blow.
*She's being slightly sarcastic, but as usual, it's really hard to tell with Wildstar. She's still serious about what she said though, so you can think of it either way. That's how her humour works.
**Come on, a Twoleg reference like that is awesome! I'll just say he's watched too much Communist television. xD

Hawkkit froze as Wildstar called out her name. She had been excited moments before, but now a wave of terror washed over her. Her eyes grew wide with fear and she struggled to move forward. What if she didn't get Falcontail as a mentor? What if she got... Fallentree* as a mentor... Mentally, Hawkkit shuddered in fear. She loved Fallentree, she really did. He was an amazing storyteller, but there was no way he could train her well! He could disintegrate at any moment he was so old! Hawkkit finally finished her long journey forward and sat down, looking up at Wildstar. As the black she-cat continued to speak, her terror began to fade away, replaced by extreme glee. Hawkkit's eyes lit up with something that could be described as pure ecstasy as Wildstar announced her mentor; Falcontail! Falcontail would be Hawkkit's mentor! Once Hawkkit knew this, she could hardly sit still! Now she would have a chance to show him that she could be the best cat ever! She would work harder than any other apprentice to impress her mentor! Hawkkit** stood up quickly and began to make her way over to her mentor slowly. Every step was agonizing, for the young kit wanted so desperately to rush over to her new mentor, but she controlled herself, making each step slow and sure on her way over to her mentor. Once she had reached him, she grinned up at him the biggest grin she had ever grinned, and touched her nose to his as a sign of respect*** and stepped back to wait for Wildstar to name her Hawkpaw, not Hawkkit anymore.
*Hawkkit doesn't really know how the whole mentor match-up thing works.
** You haven't said she's Hawkpaw yet, so I figured I'd just put this note in to remind you of that.
*** They do it in the books, so why not. I think it's respect anyways... XD

Ooc: Dun dun duuuuuuuuuuun. Bic: Wildstar twitched away in amused smile. This could easily end in disaster, but it would be worth it to see Falcontail squirming in the paws of fate. "Hawkkit, I'm sure that you and your mentor Falcontail will become very close and become cats worthy of StarClan's blessing. You will now be called Hawkpaw, and I formally welcome you into MountainClan." Falcontail suffered through the ceremony, but he wasn't really paying it any attention. The orange tabby retreated to the back of the crowd again, obviously out of sorts. He was now locked in MountainClan, first by StarClan and now by an apprentice. It would all be downhill from here. There would be no chance to go adventuring again, no joy, no freedom… Vanity, all is vanity!* *Okay, so he can be a bit of a drama king…  |

Hawkpaw grinned with glee and went to go sit by her mentor, and by her mentor, she meant sitting directly next to him, her pelt squished up against his.

Ooc: EWWWWWW HAWKPAW CAN BE SO GROSS xD
Bic:
Wildstar watched her friend retreat, and felt a stab of guilt. 'Are you really sure about this, Pinestar?' The sky above was clear and cloudless.
"Last but not by no means least, Moonkit. You have showed a great interest in the ways of herbs and medicine. StarClan and Starlight ((LAWLZ)) have shown admiration and happiness."
Ooc: I can't wait to use words that are actually scripted. It's so refreshing! :3

Sleetfoot looked up at Wildstar with a slight twinkle in his eye. As he had been acting as Deputy in Lightfur's sickness, he had the honour of conversing with Wildstar on this mentor/apprentice matchup. They had both planned the horror and hilarity that would soon ensue.
He couldn't wait.

((I went and looked it up. I didn't realize the medicine cat played such a big role in the apprentice ceremony... I thought it was pretty much like all the other apprentice ceremonies, except for an extra trip to the MoonTree...))
Starlight stepped forward, trying not to look nervous. She'd never addressed the whole clan like this before. She reached the base of TallSpire, took a deep breath, and sent a quick, silent prayer to StarClan.
"Cats of MountainClan, as you know, I will not be around forever. So it's time I took an apprentice. I have chosen a cat who has shown a true love for the ways of StarClan and a talent for herbs and healing. Your next medicine cat will be Moonpaw."
Starlight smiled at Moonkit in encouragement. She knew how confusing it was to not know what was expected of oneself.

Moonkit had watched quietly as the other two kits-tinderkit and hawkkit had been givent heir apprentice name and mentor. Unlike them, he really had no fear of not knowing who his mentor was. He was just scared that maybe she would reject him...
He smiled at Hawkkit-paw as she walked to sit with her mentor. His ear pricked as he heard his own name called. He sat up from his laying position and looked up at the beautiful black cat that stood above them all. He stepped forward, not really sure if he was supposed to or not. he had obviously never seen a Medicine Cat Apprentice Cerimony and didn't know if it was any different from a Warrior Apprentice Cerimony. And Wildstar had not called him to come forward.
He was getting ready to take a step forward when Starlight stood and padded to the center of the clearing. Moonkit stopped and sat again, realizing (thankfully) that he would have messed up if he'd moved any farther forward. He listened silently to the Medicine Cat, joy swelling in his chest.
((OOC:I just deleted it then and revised it))

OoC: Okay, I'm just gonna throw Dawnkit (and Lighty) in here really fast, Pearlclaw isn't really interesting right now. >. >
BiC: Dawnkit's fur was fluffed out completely with excitement, making her look something like a round, somewhat squishy ball with whiskers and a tail. She was too preoccupied to pay attention to her looks, however. Hawkkit- She meant Hawkpaw, had gotten matched with Falcontail as mentor! That was just perfect because Hawkpaw had told Dawnkit when she was still Hawkkit that Hawkkit wanted Falcontail to be her mentor when she was Hawkpaw and now she was Hawkpaw and he was her mentor! So Dawnkit was happy for her friend, and ultra jealous too because she just couldn't wait to be an apprentice!
But wait… Hawkpaw had wanted Falcontail to be her mentor for ages, right? But who did Dawnkit want to be her mentor? This shocking question had occurred to Dawnkit before, but now that Daddy had informed her that he wasn't s'posed to mentor his own kits, it was a difficult question… Dawnkit went off into her own world for a minute, concentrating so hard that her eyes were only slits and the tip of her pink tongue protruded from her mouth. With her fluffed-out fur, she was quite a comic sight.
--
Meanwhile, Lightfur went from starving artist to best-selling novelist making gazillions of fresh-kill dollars from the sale of books about magical cats going to a magic school called Whiskerbutt.
…Oh, wait, never mind. She was just in a coma.

OoC: At the order of her leader, Lightfur Lightbulb's comatose body ceased to be cool and began to heat up, until she eventually gave off a lovely, constant glow by which cats could read the wonderful books set in the magical school of Whiskerbutt, even at night.
