Leafstar padded along Stormclan territory, thinking back on the time when she was an apprentice. Her mentor had been the leader himself, Blackstar. How Leafstar loved Blackstar. She always looked up to him, loving all his ideas, as she recalled her times in training. Before she new it, Leafstar had stumbled through the Bramble Pile and into the clearing, where the apprentices were trained. Leafstar thought back to when she was trained here. It was this spot where Blackstar had taught her all she needed to know about being a leader... She even recalled the ceremony of being apointed to deputy... Right before Blackstar had died, he called upon Starclan to change his deputy from Russetfur, to Leafstar herself. How she recalled how shocked she was... She had only had one apprentice at that time. And how Blackstar had been wise not to choose Russetfur as the deputy, for Blackstar believed he would've brought stress to Stormclan... he was right, but her? Why did Blackstar choose her? Leafstar still wondered to this day... How so many moments filled the Bramble Pile...
