Leopardstar jumped onto the Speakledge and called the Cats together. "Let all Cats old enough to hunt for their own prey jiunge beneath the Speakledge for a Clan meeting.
The other Cats exited their seperate dens and stood below, watching their faithful leader. She tilted her head back and said,
"I, Leopardstar, call upon the warriors of SpiritClan to look down upon my Clan. For we have worked hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and keep our Clan in peace. I call upon wewe to look down upon our two apprentices, Ferretpaw and Siltpaw, for they have trained hard to understand your noble code, and I commend them to wewe in turn."
The shocked apprentices stepped mbele to stand proudly in front of Leopardstar. The she-cat leapt down to stand before them.
...
"Ferretpaw, do wewe promise to uphold the warrior code at all times, and protect your Clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do."
"Then from this moment on, wewe shall be known as Ferretheart. We honor your bravery, and your skill, and we welcome wewe as a full warrior to IvyClan."
She touched her nose to his head and he liked her shoulder in return.
"Siltpaw, do wewe promis to uphold the warrior code at all times,and protect your Clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do."
"Then, from this moment on, wewe shall be known as Siltfur. We honor your loyalty, and your cleverness,and we welcome wewe as a full warrior to IvyClan."
She touched her nose to his head and he licked her shoulder in return.
Looking around, Leopardstar began again, "IvyClan has been well this past moon. ThistleClan has been silent, and SpiritClan has made no zaidi omens. I believe that the time for peace has come. Dawnfrost and Whitepetal both took hunting patrols out earlier, so now, we can feast!"
