Aaaahhhh! I'm so sorry! I haven't updated in so long! I've kind of lost ideas, but I'm hoping to introduce a TON of more charries, and yeah. So, enjoy this chapter!

I found this chapter barely started on my computer after I finished doing Muggle Studies Mayhem. I started writing again, after the second -- so if the characters are a bit OOC blame moi. Sorry about the OOC-ness.

"Hello? Oh! What's this?" I looked down at the edge of the camp. Hm… A piece of bark was placed in front of me.

"Dear Sunpaw, You have been chosen by StarClan Works to come back as the character Firepaw!"

"Go on…" My friend Stormpaw encouraged. We were spending the day together, because his mother and father were out doing patrols.

"… Please bring fresh-kill for Sun-high, and have fun!" I finished. The bark was longer but that was all I needed to know.

"I made it!"

"Go Sunpaw! Go Sunpaw!" Stormpaw called.

"This is great Sunpaw!" Stormpaw jumped on me, "You could actually get this role!"

"Maybe," I sighed, "There are some experienced apprentices there, who could easily get the role before I could even ask for it."

"I don't know," Stormpaw's eyes lit up, "Can I come? It's tomorrow and my mom told me to stay with you!"

"Sure!" I brought the bark to my mother, told her where we were going and called it a day.

--

"Pearlpaw!" A ginger cat called.

"What?" a second flame colored cat with pearly green eyes answered.

"Come here!"

"What?"

"Come… here!"

"Oh StarClan, did it come?"

"Yes. It came!"

"Emberpaw!"

"What?"

"We made it!"

"I have to tell Brownpaw!"

"I'm right here."

"Pearlpaw and I both made it!"

"Well I didn't."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"I'm not. You can keep your role for all I care."

I gave my orange fur one last lick and started out with Stormpaw to the callbacks. Stormpaw had gray fur, and I thought he would make a good Graypaw until I met Skypaw and Waterpaw. I hoped I wouldn't have to choose between the two.

Skypaw was my first friend. We had met at the first auditions and became instantly friends.

Waterpaw was the second Graypaw I had met. He certainly had more experience, but he was just as good as Skypaw. When the two had met there was definitely some coldness that I didn't know about.

Smokepaw and I were helpless to watch as they bickered.

So here I am with Stormpaw, who immediately kicked it off with Duskpaw and are now talking about the different clans in the area.

I was looking at the dew on the ground, my nervous stomach fluttering like a butterfly.

"Sunpaw?" Duskpaw asked, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," I answered, "I'm just nervous, I guess."

"Me too," Duskpaw sympathized. "Hey, guess what?"

"What?"

"Stormpaw and I both have parents who are deputies!"

"What a coincidence," I tried to sound excited, when really my stomach was getting worse.

"You don't look so good Sunpaw," Smokepaw called coming up the path. "Did you eat a bad mouse?"

"No, I'm just nervous," I answered. "How many times do I have to explain?" I thought to myself.

"Come on! It'll be fun! Did you read the rest of the bark, it said we would be playing games today!" Smokepaw tried to make me feel better.

Smokepaw joined our walk to the auditions. As we stopped onto the larger path we met up with Emberpaw and another she-cat who looked identical to her, but her eyes were paler.

"Hello Sunpaw," Emberpaw meowed coldly.

"Hi Emberpaw."

"This is my friend Pearlpaw," Emberpaw flicked her tail to the ginger she-cat next to her, "She got callbacks too."

"Good luck."

"Hey, Sunpaw!" Skypaw bounded towards us. He had run a bit to fast because he tripped over a stump of grass an came tumbling towards Pearlpaw. He bumped into her by accident.

"Who's that?" Pearlpaw looked at Skypaw.

"I'm Skypaw," Skypaw sat up and licked his paw, "I'm trying out for Graypaw."

"I'm Pearlpaw, I'm trying out for Sandpaw."

"Can we keep going?" Duskpaw interrupted, "We'll never get there at this pace."

Duskpaw, Smokepaw, Skypaw, me, Emberpaw and Pearlpaw… I thought, Where's Waterpaw?

We continued padding down the path. I watched Smokepaw's tail twitch with excitement and Skypaw trip over his own paws. Duskpaw was confident, just like he always is and Emberpaw showed no expression, neither did Pearlpaw. Except for an occasional smile at Skypaw.

When we arrived we met up with Waterpaw. It was not a pretty sight. I mean, well, he looked fine, but Pearlpaw nearly fell over when she saw him. I swear she must go for the "Graypaw's".

We joined out groups, Skypaw and Waterpaw in the Graypaw group etc. I saw there was another group of silver she-cats, who I thought must be Silverpaw, maybe they were adding her into the movie early. If Skypaw or Waterpaw got the roll they would get to fall in love with one of them. There was one who looked particularly pretty, with icy blue eyes and pretty gray tabby stripes. Emberpaw went over and touched noses with her before we started.

"So this is the Firepaw group?" an orange tom meowed looking at our group. There were five cats in each group, presumably the top five from each audition.

"So let's start by going around the circle and saying our names and our favorite type of prey. I'll start," the tom had bright amber eyes. "My name is Goldenclaw and my favorite type of prey is fish."

"I'm Flamepaw and my favorite type of prey is vole."

"I'm Foxpaw and my favorite type of prey is finch."

"I'm Badgerpaw and my favorite type of prey is squirrel."

"I'm Thornpaw and my favorite type of prey is frog."

I took a deep breath and meowed, "My name is Sunpaw and my favorite type of prey is mouse."

I watched the other apprentices as they said their name. Flamepaw looked pretty much like I did, with a ginger pelt and green eyes, but he had a bigger build than I did and his tail was longer. Foxpaw's pelt was darker than mine was and his eyes were forest green. Badgerpaw had the darkest ginger fur, nearly brown, with a white tip on his tail. His eyes were dark amber. Thornpaw had the lightest ginger pelt, with bright blue eyes. My pelt was medium ginger and my eyes were bright green.

"So we're going to play a few games, and we'll all get to know each other and then we'll meet up with the Graypaw group and meet their cats!"

The first game was a solo game. Goldenclaw called out a type of prey and we had to stalk it, and he would call out a winner. I won the stalk contest for mouse, and fish.

The second game was a teamwork game. Goldenclaw split us into two teams. I was with Foxpaw and Thornpaw against Badgerpaw and Flamepaw. He gave one cat on each team a stick and we had to run to the next person on our team. Our team won because we had more cats, so we had less of a distance to run.

Then it was time to join the Graypaw group. We all sat in a large circle, and Goldenclaw and the Graypaw group leader, Graystorm, sat together. The Graypaw cats were Skypaw, Waterpaw, Cloudpaw, Ashpaw and Rainpaw. We played some Graypaw against Firepaw games, and practiced some scenes. I got to know Foxpaw and Thornpaw a bit better and Flamepaw and Badgerpaw remained sitting and talking together.

Then Graystorm and Goldenclaw started a new game.

"This is a repeat after me game!" Graystorm yowled.

"This is a repeat after me game!" we all yowled in return.

"It's also a do-as-I-do game!"

"It's also a do-as-I-do game!" we yowled again.

"First you take you tail…" Graystorm stick his tail straight in the air.

"First you take you tail…"

"And twist it all around…" Goldenclaw and Graystorm twisted their tails as far as they could go.

"And twist it all around…" we repeated. I twisted my tail around in the air following Goldenclaw.

"And shake it in the air…"

"And shake it in the air…" I shook my tail in the air waving it side to side.

"And throw it on the ground!"

"And throw it on the ground!" I heard a lot of "thuds".

The game continued until cats had gotten out of breath. When I was too tired I sat with Thornpaw and Foxpaw.

"The cats who are still in the game must be crazy," Foxpaw muttered, breathing heavily.

"You can say that again," Thornpaw agreed.

"The cats who are…"

"He didn't mean it!" I doubled over laughing with Thornpaw and Foxpaw. They were really nice.

After most of the cats had gotten out of the game Graystorm and Goldenclaw announced the remaining cats the winners.

"And, that just about makes us out of time, so now you can all go home!" Graystorm announced. "I hope you had fun!"

Skypaw, Waterpaw and I found Smokepaw and Duskpaw and on the way home we chattered about how much fun we had had that day.

--

After I got warmed up the charries got less and less OOC, but I didn't do that good a job with Smokepaw. Sorry Smokepaw lovers!

If you review you get a… Graystorm and Goldenclaw chocolate deluxe or Thornpaw, Foxpaw and Sunpaw doubling over in laughter. So cute!
