(cont) Reached out his paw over the edge and peared down to see his aprentis splash into the deep ocean. "Theres nothing we can do..." Calmly whispered a voice behind him. "...I suppose youre right, DotWind... uhg... this is all my fault..." Sobbed BitePaw's mentor sadly. "No... it was an acsedent... we better tell SneezeLeaf... Surly his mother would want to know were her son is..." Dotwinds voice seemed to trail off. They both nodded and headed back to camp. Splashing in the water, BitePaw scrambled to swim, but he quickly got the hang of it. The cool water warmed his pelt as he ducked his head in the water in surch for fish. Suddenly he found one. Two to be exact. They had sharp teath, but slim bodys. He first dove down to the big one then relized the smaller one would make a better catch. He chomped on the big ones neck but it faut back. It almost got BitePaws tail but used it to wrap around the fishes body. Although he got a good nip in the backleg he let go and the fish swam away, Along with the small one. The fish were fast but he was faster; He used his paws and plundged the forward scratching all the way down the smaller fish's sides. The water filled with blo.od as BitePaw chomped down on its side, The k!lling bite.

BitePaws mentor slowed his pace as they aprotched the clan. "I'll tell the leader... you tell Sneezeleaf" mewed The mentor his eyes cloudy with grief. Dotwind nodded and trotted away as Bitepaws mentor made his way to there leaders cave. "I have bad news..." He begun as he finished the story.

BitePaw padded out of the water with blo.od stained paws. "Oh the'll get a kick outa this!" he mumbled pleased with himself. He carfuly carried the fish up a slope that lead back to the cliff side. Noticing his mentor was nowhere to be seen, he figured that theyd meet back in camp. So he started padding away twords camp entrance.

The leader jumped on highrock and yelped "All cats of this clan! We have some sad news!" SneezeLeaf (cont.)

(cont) limped out of the warriors den and sat, eyes clouded, on the grass infrount of there leader. "you told her I see" whispered BitePaws mentor to DotWind but quickly silenced by there leaders mew. "BitePaw has died. His courage and skill shall always be remembered" There leaders head drooped. "NO!" called the other aprentaces "HOW!?" called the others "THIS CANT BE!!"
Suddenly A big grey cat trotted eyes wide and smiled face into camp. With a barakuta dangling in his mouth. The first to notice him was the elderlyest elder, JewlWood. "l-look!" she shouted above the rest of the griefing. " Its BitePaw!" The others heads jolted over to see BitePaw standing in the entrence with the fish in his mouth. Soon he was surfounded by his friends and clan mates cheering and laughing.
"WE THOUGHT YOU DIED!!"
"Im so glad youre safe!"
"are you ok!?"
"Whats that in your jaw?"

There questions were silenced by there leaders sharp mew "You have pasted your test! let the naming cerimony begin!"

"For this extrodanary catch, and your sharp wits, along with all of your fierce battle techneques, You will now be know as BarakutaFang!" Meowed his leader. "BarakutaFang..." Whispered BarakutaFang with honor.
"BARAKUTAFANG!"

"BARAKUTAFANG!!!

"BARAKUTAFANG!!!!!!!"
