RainClan

( That's a good territory description, sounds good. I can start if you want. )

Icesong padded back to camp, a fat thrush in her jaws. Her patrol followed her closely, all carrying prey. Their hunting trip had been successful and they would easily feed the expecting queens and elders. One thought nagged at her though, what was the meaning of the prophecy? She didn't even know what two prophecy was. The medicine cats had hinted that they had received one at the last gathering, but hadn't told the Warriors what it was yet.

Icesong heard the wail as she entered camp with the prey. Shock raced through her, she thought that the leader had many lives left! Cloudstar had been her leader since she had been born, he had been there ever since she coudl remember. He had performed all her ceremonies! What would they do without him? Dawnstep wou do have to be their new leader, and she would have to take a new deputy, the cycle would continue. Icesong figuired that Leaftail would be the new deputy, he was strong and brave.

Aqua yes, but we do have a plot that only storm and I know))

Dawnstep lashed her tail. 'Poisoned.' She thought in anger and grief. "Help me bring him to the center of camp so the clan can morn for him." She instructed the warrior who had announced the leader's death. Together they dragged him to the center of the clearing and gently laid him down. "Let all cats gather!" She yowled, her voice steady, though she was filled with grief and anger, she knew who had murdered Cloudstar.

@falco, yes, but as I said before there is a plot that only storm and I know))

"He was poisoned." Dawnstep responded in a soft voice. "We will wait until every cat has gathered than we can properly send him off to starclan." She me owed, forcing her voice to stay steady.

((Okay.))

Birchwillow's ears perked up as he turned to the group of cats gatherinh at his leader's dead body. "Oh...." his voice was low and soft, filled with concern, but hiding grief. With a flick of his tail, he padded over. He wasn't angry, or that sad, even. He was at peace. He was probably one of the only cats who just stared the leader's corspe. "Hmmmm.."

"I know this is hard, it's always hard to say goodbye to such a good cat and an even better leader." Dawnstep announced, her tail swishing in grief. "Cloudstar, may Starclan light your path and guide your paws so you may have endless hunting and joy." She spoke before laying down and laying her muzzle in his chest fur. She would morn until dusk, then she would leave for the Moonstone.

Birchwillow nervously twitched his tail, trying to slip away. He hated crowds, abd grew claustrophobic. Finally managing to slip out he tried to leave unnoticed.

shall we timeskip to dusk because it's just going to be posts about laying their muzzles in the leaders fur xD )

its fine)

Dawnstep got to her paws, looking down sadly at Cloudstar. "I must go to retrieve my nine lives, watch the clan for me while I'm gone." She mewed quietly to Icesong before padding out of camp. After what seemed like ages she finally arrived, the moon was starting to creep up the side of the sky as she padded down to the moonstone. She laid down and touched her nose to the stone, waking up in a large grassy clearing, forms of starry cats in front of her. "Welcome Dawnstar." A cat spoke, padding forward. "For your first life, I give you pride. Use this life to know the worth both you and your clan possess, but use it wisely." It was a pretty white tabby who spoke with a kind, but serious tone. Icestripe touched noses with Dawnstar and a burst of energy and slight pain spread through her body. Then Icestripe padded back into the ranks of starclan and the next cat padded out. "For your second life, I give you patience. Don't rush into uncertainty, use this life so that you may learn to understand what is unclear to you and so that you may make better choices." It was her mentor who spoke, a pretty black, orange and white dappled she-cat with a torn ear. They touched noses and another surge of energy and power surged through her.

The next life was courage, the fourth was hope, the fifth was strength, the sixth was mercy, the seventh was trust, the eighth was determination and the ninth was confidence. "I hail you by your new name, Dawnstar. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of Rainclan. Defend it well; care for young and old; honor your ancestors and the traditions of the warrior code; live each life with pride and dignity." It was the deputy before her who spoke, Brambletalon. She looked into the gathered starclan cats, wondering why it wasn't Cloudstar who had spoken, but before she could find him, if he was even there, she blinked open her eyes to find herself back next to the moonstone, her body cold but full of strength and energy. Dawnstar got to her paws and began back towards her clan.

By the time Dawnstar reached camp it was already dawn and she could see the elders beginning to prepare Cloudstar's body for the burial. She leaped onto the announcement stone, she would wait until the elders buried the former leader's body before making the announcements. ... Once the elders returned back to camp, Cloudstar no loner with them, she began the clan meeting. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather below for a clan meeting!" She yowled, her voice ringing clear and loud through the camp.

"As you might know, Cloudstar was poisoned. There was a half eaten yew berry next to the prey he was eating. Earlier that day, I recall Leaftail going into Cloudstar's den and in his den I picked up fresh traces of his scent. I can only assume that it was Leaftail who killed Cloudstar, therefore as my first act as leader, for the safety of all the cats in Rainclan, I banish him from ever steeping foot in our territory. If he is found, he must be chased out immediately." Dawnstar announced, her cold glare piercing Leaftail.

"Leaftail, my brother, all of the said evidence points to you.I'm sorry, but I must do what is best for the clan." Dawnstar meowed, shaking her head in dismay. "My order has been given, I'm sorry but you are no longer accepted in this clan."
