Cloudspots blinked in surprise as Sparrowstar called his name. He was to be a mentor? What I’m StarClan’s name had he done to deserve that honor? He generally kept to himself, without making a fuss- in a positive or negative sense. He wasn’t the bravest, or the strongest, or the most skilled.

Nonetheless, he knew he had to do right by this young cat. Wisteriapaw’s mentor had abandoned their duties; Cloudspots felt a duty to make that up. Even though he wasn’t responsible for this mentor’s neglect, he felt a pang of anger on this apprentice’s behalf. What sort of cat abandoned an apprentice?

Shaking away his anxiety and surprise, he made his way over to his new apprentice. He bent down to touch noses with them.

Oriolepaw happily chanted the new apprentices’ names. He was going to have new denmates! His tiny claws worked the ground in excitement, the grass tearing under his claws. He hoped they’d become fast friends!

He felt a strike of sympathy for the apprentices getting reassigned to new mentors. Oriolepaw was incredibly grateful that he had an attentive mentor. He highly doubted that Larkstorm would ever neglect her duties as a mentor. She was a great, loyal ThunderClan warrior.
