Allegiance Notes:
SilverClan doesn't have a new deputy at this point, since Pine has yet to appoint one. He has also not yet gotten his nine lives. And now, onto the story!
Author's Note: This story takes place shortly after Silverstar dies.
A white tom looked up at the night sky. He placed his paws on the Silverpath, and let out a heavy sigh. So much had changed in such a short time since Silverstar had died.
If only Silverstar was stll here.
His ice blue eyes gazed into the path.
It was moving so fast, that he flew into the air and landed on the ground. But it didn't stop, it kept going. Silverstar, why did you have to leave us here?
"Pine, are you okay?"
He turned around and saw his son, Little Kit. His orange and white pelt was shining in the moonlight.
"I just miss Silverstar, that's all!" Pine said.
"We all miss him, Pine." Little Kit let out a heavy sigh. "Even our own medicine cat misses him."
"Redstripe will need to find an apprentice soon. He's starting to show his age."
Little Kit nodded in agreement.
"I would do it, but I'm better at fighting and hunting instead."
Pine sniffed the air and then swished his tail on the ground.
"It's those cats again!" Pine said. "They've been trying to take our home ever since he died. If he were still alive, we wouldn't be getting constant injuries and battle scars."
An orange she-cat walked toward Pine, alongside the rest of her group.
"This is BloodClan territory now!" The orange she-cat said, "You shouldn't be here anymore!"
"Fang, that's enough." A gray tom with folded ears said.
"But Badgerstar! These cats are in our territory!" Fang said, her tail flicking in annoyance at Pine and Little Kit.
"Your territory?" Pine said. "This place is ours! You cannot just chase us out so easily!"
Badgerstar swished his tail towards the ground.
"We shall see whose territory this will belong to. You have three days to either leave or fight for what's left of it."
"SilverClan will fight to protect our home." Pine hissed.
Badgerstar slowly shook his head. "Fine, I see you're willing to protect your little clan. In three days, we'll see who keeps this land as their territory."
Badgerstar and his cats turned around, towards the forest.
"Looks like I have to learn some battle moves!" Little Kit said, excited.
"You should return to camp. I have to think this over a bit."
Little Kit nodded, running back to camp.
"Silverstar, if you were here we wouldn't have to keep getting wounded from these rogues. Maybe we should just move back to our old home."
He heard a voice from behind him. For a moment he thought it wasn't real.
"Pine...is that you?"
He turned around, and saw Silverstar. His gray and white pelt wasn't bleeding, but instead surrounded by stars.
Am I dreaming? Silverstar is right here...in front of me!
"Silverstar? Are you...alive? I thought that thundersnake hit you!"
Silverstar sighed. "It did, Pine. I am not alive anymore. I am in StarClan now. There is no need to worry about me. But what you should be concerned about is SilverClan. Your clan."
"My...clan?"
Silverstar nodded.
"Yes, Pine. SilverClan is now yours to lead. It is now your job as deputy to lead the clan. You need to become the leader of SilverClan."
Silverstar started walking away from him.
"Silverstar, wait! Where are you going? Come back!"
His starry pelt faded away in front of Jewel Cave. Pine realized now what he had to do.
I have to get my nine lives...Just like Silverstar did.
He ran quickly into Jewel Cave, being careful not to trip on the rocks inside. He found the moonstone, touching it with his nose. His body became limp, and he fell asleep.
Pine tried to move his body, but couldn't.
I can't move! Am I...dead?
He opened his eyes, and saw a tortoiseshell she-cat who shook her head.
"Pine, you came. Silverstar said that you would!"
Oh, Whiskers. I've missed you.
"Are you in StarClan too?" Pine asked, looking at her light green eyes.
Whiskers nodded, touching noses with him. "Yes. I give you a life for the tireless energy you will need as a leader to bring your clan back to their old home."
Pine felt like he could run forever without hurting his paws. In the distance, he spotted the clan's old home.
That's where we have to go...
The vision faded away as Pine saw a white she-cat.
"Yuki! It's you! I hope you're well."
Yuki nodded. "I am."
She touched noses with Pine. "With this life, I give you hope and patience. There will come a time where you will need patience. No matter how long it takes, have hope when the time comes, and never lose it or let it fade."
Pine saw a vision of Yuki, time passing quickly as she sat and waited for her housefolk to return. But it would never happen again. Pine thought sadly. Not until she was about to die.
The vision faded, and she saw Yuki's blue eyes shining as she ran towards the sound of her housefolk calling her.
Next was a gray she-cat with long fur. Her blue eyes were shining as she touched noses with him.
This was the she-cat he met near the mountains. It's Angelfur...
"I'm sure that Silverstar has told you about me. I give you a life for courage to face the toughest challenges."
Pine tried not to yowl in pain as the life was given to him.
"It's okay, Pine. It will be over soon."
He looked up, and saw a tom in front of him.
"It's going to be interesting when you join StarClan. Then there will be two Pinestars!" He let a mrrow of laughter and continued, touching noses with him. "I give you a life for happiness, so you can be enjoy peace during times of war and bloodshed."
A flame-colored tom came towards him, and they touched noses. It was Firestar giving him a life.
"I know just like you what it's like to join a clan and become leader, abandoning the life of a kittypet. I give you a life for strength, so you'll be able to face the toughest of enemies."
A white she-cat that was slowly fading in and out came forward, touching noses with the white tom. "With this life, I give you the power to trust your instincts. Do not be afraid to speak your mind, and how you truely feel."
Pine saw a vision of the sun rising in the mountains, but it quickly faded away.
This cat...were they the first healer of the Tribe Silverstar told me about?
Pine wasn't able to recognize the cat coming to him. Who is this?
It was Yellowfang, former medicine cat of ShadowClan and ThunderClan. "I give you a life for healing those who cannot be healed with herbs, but with the passing of time."
A white tom with black paws came forward. "I give you a life for mentoring. Never begin to train kits before they are old enough. Many leaders before you have made this fatal mistake in the past."
Why would I do that? It's against the warrior code! Pine pushed the thought away.
He finally saw Silverstar in front of him, and the two of them touched noses.
My final life...What will Silverstar give me?
"I give you your final life. Listen to your elders, and those who have come before you. Learn from them, and the stories they tell young kits."
"I hail you by your new name, Pinestar. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of SilverClan. 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."
He saw StarClan cats all around him, which began to chant his name.
"Pinestar! Pinestar! Pinestar! Pinestar!"
At moonhigh, Pinestar started a clan meeting.
He could see his son in the crowd of cats.
This should have been done a long time ago.
"Cats of SilverClan, we must be ready for the times ahead of us, and the challenges that may come our way. We need a deputy to lead the clan after I am gone. Let the spirit of Silverstar hear and approve of my choice. Smokeflight will be the new deputy of SilverClan."
The black tom stood, his amber eyes shining. He joined Pinestar and stood next to him. "I am glad that you chose me to be your deputy. I will make sure that one day I'll lead the clan well."
Three days later, BloodClan came to fight.
"We're ready, Badgerstar!" Fang said, her tail swishing in excitement.
"SilverClan is ready, too." Smokeflight said, "We've been preparing for this moment."
Cats from both clans ran into battle. Within a few heartbeats, Pinestar was pinned down by Badgerstar. He scratched at the gray tom's ears and his throat, and was released from his grip. The tom lied still.
Is he...dead?
"You took from him one of his lives! You are truly foxhearted!" Mollystep said.
Most of the BloodClan cats stopped fighting to make sure Badgerstar was okay.
Pinestar pinned Badgerstar down with his paws, ready to fight back.
Badgerstar weakly moved. His brown eyes widened in fear.
"I am leader of SilverClan now. This territory is SilverClan's, not yours. Now leave my clanmates alone."
Badgerstar weakly nodded, and the rest of his cats retreated towards Twolegplace.
"We've won, Pinestar." Little Kit said, trying to hide the scratch on his nose.
"You got your first battle scar! You should be proud. It will always be a reminder of today's battle."
Little Kit let his nose scar show with pride, and the rest of SilverClan followed them back to their camp.
At dawn, the clan awoke to a territory that was truely theirs. Pinestar walked over the silver path once more, looking up at the sky.
No cat would even try and take it away now!
Pinestar sighed, looking at the stars that were fading away as the sun slowly began to rise.
He remembered Smokeflight's wounds on his black pelt, his amber eyes full of fear.
But it was not without the loss of a clanmate. Smokeflight...SilverClan will never forget you for your courage. Your wounds were too great to heal, but our clan is so proud of everything you have done for us. I hope Silverstar is there to welcome you to StarClan.
Author's Note:
I'd thought that I should mention that the white she-cat who gave Pinestar the life to trust his instincts was indeed Half Moon, the first healer of the Tribe of the Rushing Water. The white tom with black paws should be easy to figure out, but in case you didn't, it's Blackstar.
Before I forget, Smokeflight is definitely in StarClan. He was led there by Silverstar, just as Pinestar hoped he would be.
