Cricketkit:
Cricketkit trotted out of the nursery, doving into a world of white. She looked around as a strong breeze blew her agianst the thorn-filled nursery. She squeked in excitement as she pulled herself off. She bounded around a small sapling growing right beside the back of the nursery. Cricketkit sniffed it as she climbed up carefully. The tree started to bend. Cricketkit wiggled to the edge, ready to jump, when she was whipped over the barrier by the tree. She skidded into a deep snowdrift. She cried pitifully as she became cold.

Somewhere in the camp, a pitiful wait echoed amongst the falling snow. For a moment, Twistedfoot believed it was only his ears decieving him, before realizing that the faint cry was real. The black and white tom found it harder to hobble on his three good feet in the winter, because of the freezing snow and how his twisted foot ached in the bitterness.
The ThunderClan medicine cat limped outside his warm den, trying to pinpoint the souce of the soft crying. He eventually found himself at the foot of a tree, with a little kit shivering within a mound of snow. Gently, the foggy-blue eyed tom picked up the kitten by the scruff of the neck, and trudged back into the medicine cat's den. The scent that rolled off his the kitten's fur proved to be of Gazelleleap's offspring. The one that constantly creates mischief! he thought wearily, as he dropped the kitten onto his nest of moss.
Twistedfoot examined the kit. He started gently, "What were you doing outside like that?"

Twistedfoot sighed softly but stayed patient, knowing that it was very kit-like to be curious and hyperactive. In fact, the ThunderClan medicine cat himself had permenantly twisted his own little foot when he was only a kit, from climbing a high mound of bounders. "You have to be more careful," the black and white tom chided gently, his foggy blue eyes fixed on the little kit who could have gotten worser injuries. He continued in the same tone, "Or else you could have twisted your foot permenantly, like me, or worse. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I could use all four of my limbs - I could possibly be a warrior. Maybe even deputy. You wouldn't want that to happen, right?"

"I think being a medicine cat would be cool. You get to go and you can save your clan better than being a warrior. Plus, if I become a warrior, I won't be smart like you!"
Cricketkit squeaked as she fluffed up her tiny fur.

Twistedfoot couldn't help but suppress a little grin. Of course a kit would say something like this to their medicine cat, whether or not they wanted to please! "Well," he started slowly, "That's not quite what I meant. I meant you don't want to have a crippled foot like me. Other medicine cats have perfectly able bodies."
The black and white tom sat down and continued speaking, as though Cricketkit was his little friend. And perhaps, she would someday be. "I would be happy to train you as a medicine cat apprentice, but it's really fate that decides your route and journey in life. You have your entire life stretching out before you, so there's no need to worry. But, if you think herbs and healing are what would make your heart and soul sing... maybe I could train you. But you have a while before you become six moons."

"Well, my brother wants to be a fat, lazy kittypet! My other sibling wants to be a loner. Well, that what I heard anyways."

Twistedfoot smiled as the other medicine cat padded into the den. "She just went exploring for a little bit, then fell from a tree. No injuries though. More curiousity, possibly." He said good-naturedly, blinking twice as Cricketkit spoke about her siblings. With a chuckle, the black and white tom added, "Well, I'm sure Gazelleleap wouldn't be very proud of that! But you're a curious kit. Just keep your nose out of badger and fox dens."

Rosestem nodded and added, " And make sure to stay in the camp."

"But I wanna be an apprentice now!!"
((All kits say that at least once in Erin's books XD.))

(Cricketkit was five moons when you adopted him right? If so, that means by now he would be six moons!!)
Rosestem chuckled. "You have to wait a while kit. But you will be a great apprentice, your mentor will be very lucky."

Cricketkit heard Thunderstar's commanding yowl. A ceremony!
