A\N: This occurred after the events of Wolfeather's Destiny (Unfortunately I cannot put it on Fanfiction yet, for it is unfinished.) The only reason I am writing this story is because I felt that Ebonythorn deserved a story of her own. I think that she wasn't really focused on in my other unfinished story, so I'm going to write this. and I hope my writing satisfies you. If it doesn't...stop reading it. Reviews are appreciated!
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Warriors, Erin Hunter does.

A\N: That took me a long time to do. The only reason MountainClan has cat descriptions is because: A: It's the main Clan in this story, and B: I got tired of doing it. I'm just going to let you guys imagine what the other cats look like (they aren't really going to be mentioned in the story unless it's necessary). I'm writing a prologue for this story. Just thought I'd add that to this note.
Prologue:
Ebonystar struggled to breathe, her breath coming in fast, short rasps. She was losing her last life.
Her Clanmates gathered outside of her den, whispering and casting worried glances towards the den. Her mate, Nightfire, sat silently at her side. Her kits stood behind their father.
"Where are Rainstorm and Fawnpelt?" She asked, craning her neck to locate her eldest kits. Her two daughters stepped forward from behind their father.
"Wolfstar has come for me," She rasped, nodding to his spirit, that was sitting at the entrance to her den. Rainstorm and Fawnpelt narrowed their eyes as they glanced over to where Ebonystar had seen Wolfstar's spirit.
"Even as I speak, I drift closer to death." She paused for a moment, then addressed her oldest daughter.
"Rainstorm," She began.
"I am entrusting my Clan to you. You are my deputy, therefore you must accept leadership." She said. Rainstorm nodded, her eyes filling with tears.
Ebonystar drew a breath as she began to speak again, "I have one request for you, Rainstorm."
"What is it?" Rainstorm croaked, her tears soaking her fur.
"I ask that Fawnpelt be your deputy. I see that there is no better cat for deputyship."
"Alright, Ebonystar. As you wish."
Ebonystar sighed. "It is time for me to join StarClan."
"Ebonystar! No! Don't leave..." Nightfire wailed, pressing his muzzle into her fur.
"Nightfire, I have to go. I am losing my ninth life. Be strong for me, please. You still have our kits to think of. I will wait for you in StarClan, my love."
Ebonystar's body twitched, and fell still.
Nightfire gave a low wail, pressing his muzzle deeper into her fur. Ebonystar's kits, Rainstorm, Fawnpelt, Frostlily, Ravenwing and Icewind,crouched beside their mother's body to mourn her.
Ebonystar padded towards Wolfstar to meet him. The blue-gray tabby cat meowed in greeting, laying his tail on her shoulder.
"You were a great leader, Ebonystar. I chose well when I appointed you as my deputy."
"I hope Rainstar is just as good a leader as I was, Wolfstar. If she has half the courage and wisdom as I had, she will be a great leader for MountainClan."
"Ebonystar!" Frostflame exclaimed in happiness.
Ebonystar dashed towards the forest of StarClan, where Frostflame, Briarwing, Rainblaze, Blizzardstar, Bearstar and Whitetail were waiting for her.
