Like everyone of his clanmates, the young tom made his way towards the Highbranch to listen to what his leader had to announce to the clan.
He realized that this was a ranking ceremony, meaning some of them would be changing ranks. He had been keeping track of when he'd become an apprentice and he registered that he was now six moons old and was about to get his apprentice name. Jalid wasn't the happiest cat in the clan and felt like a fish out of water, especially with the facts that he was born outside the clans, his family was falling apart and that his father had a whole nothing family with in the clan. Yup, he felt out of place here. But the tuxedo knew how much this all meant to his mother and didn't want to bring it up to her. Especially not at the moment.
The tom wished that Shrew had made it back from her hunting trip with the strange warrior in time to see him gain his new name as well as a mentor, but as he watched the entrance with unwavering yellow orbs, he had to admit that she wasn't going to be able to make it. He simply gave a sigh and returned his gaze towards Blazingnight and waited for her to continue.

Jalid, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Frozenpaw. Your mentor will be Pinestorm. I hope they will pass down all he knows on to you.
