Pinekit introduces AsterClan.

Pinekit was sleeping in the nursery with light streaming through the roof of the den

Ivyrunner: “Pinekit, you can’t sleep in forever”

Pinekit: “I don’t wanna wake up right now”

Pinekit rolled over and Ivyrunner giggled quietly.

Ivyrunner: “Come on, get up. We don’t want you to be late for your apprentice ceremony”

Pinekit got up, rubbing her eyes as Ivyrunner started licking her fur.

Pinekit: “Thanks”

Ivyrunner nodded

Redstar: “All cats old enough to hunt gather by the Smooth Stone!”

Ivyrunner: “Now come on, Pinekit.”

Pinekit nervously padded out of the nursery and into the clearing alongside Ivyrunner. Pinekit sat near the front of the clan, and Ivyrunner sat behind her.

Redstar: “Today one kit-”

Redstar started, but stopped as he saw two apprentice-age cats, looking weak and tired.
