[color=ffce00][b]"I hope mine will go that well."[/b][/color] He didn't think Frostwhisker was allowed to talk about what she did during her assessment, but he'd heard that they usually involved hunting. He was terrible at hunting unless it was fishing. He always ended up being too loud or his paws shifted weird in the sand and made him mess up his jump. He hadn't been an apprentice for more than a moon, but he still felt like he should be doing better. That wasn't what he needed to think about right now though, he was celebrating with his friend. He bumped his brother with his hip as the other tom snarked behind him. [color=ffce00][b]"You're just jealous. We'll be in the warriors den soon enough."[/b][/color] He hoped anyway. He turned his head back to Frostwhisker, [color=ffce00][b]"Well we'll let you get to your warrior duties. I need to go find Cranesong."[/b][/color] He turned and bounded away to go find his mentor. Reedpaw watched the other tom go before sending Frostwhisker a rye grin, [b]"Thanks for leaving me stuck with the boys,"[/b] her tone was teasing as she flicked the silver tabby in the shoulder with her tail. [b]"I'll see you later."[/b] She slipped her way through the dispersing crowd to find Goldensight.

She figured exchanging warriors between clans would strengthen the ties between them. It would also bring those in FireClan to be loyal to her and vice versa, which would further accelerate their plans. She just had to convince the white tom to replace his deputy with one of his own kin. That would be more of a struggle. Honestly she hadn't expected the exchange to happen so soon, but Embersky had mentioned Frostwhisker coming ato the medicine den and asking some rather...concerning questions. She started at the back wall of her den under the Tallstones, contemplating whether or not she had made the right decision. She had thought about forcing her to remain Frostpaw, but she had already given Nightwater the go ahead and there was no need to punish the mentor for the actions of the apprentice. No this was the best solution. She waited until she heard the paw steps of Frostwhisker and turned her face up into a welcoming smile, [color=9e0b0f][b]"Come in Frostwhisker."[/b][/color] She turned to face the entrance to her den and curled her tail around her paws. [color=9e0b0f][b]"I know it might come as a surprise, me picking you for this and not one of the experienced warriors, but we think that it would be best to send a new warrior."[/b][/color] She knew that the 'we' didn't need to be explained, her and her children had discussed it. [color=9e0b0f][b]"We're starting an exchange program with FireClan, swapping warriors to learn about the other clan and facilitate cooperation between us."[/b][/color] Her whiskers twitched, [color=9e0b0f][b]"And you're the lucky first."[/b][/color]
