It had been 7 moons since Moonpaw joined Rippleclan. She found clan life very suitable for her. She quickly learned to catch fish, and gained Rippleclan's ability to sense Ripples in the water. There was one faithful day, where Moonpaw's mentor, Oceanwave, delivered a surprise.

"Moonpaw!" Moonpaw woke with a start. "huh? who is it?" She groaned. "come over here". Moonpaw knew that this was her mentor's call. She leaped out of her nest to meet Oceanwave. "Clearstar told me that you've trained hard and long,"she said. " she said that your naming ceremony will be this afternoon, so groom yourself and get ready." then she left. Moonpaw bounded back to her nest, grooming vigorously. her friend, seapaw, had been named "seawave' yesterday. now this was her naming. she groomed until she heard clearstar's call. It was time.
