Fine, I'll deal. But I know what I mean, so please don't try to create an action that wasn't there in the first place. Yes, Bluestar is leader because Sunstar is dead. And don't forget that Spottedpaw is six moons old so she is officially an apprentice. Cannon Enforcer, I do have a beta of some kind. BTW, that kit is me. Well, my alter-ego. And in case you're thinking it, yes, Firestar is my alter-ego's brother...

TO ALL READERS: you seriously don't get my urgency. I need some characters. I have about two characters! It is absolutely urgent. You don't have to submit a storyline, just submit a character! Frostflower, thanks for sending in those other two characters, but unless it's urgent, I can only accept one character per person. But if I need to, I will use your characters. BTW, I do support SpottedXFire and SandXFire at the same time.

Spottedpaw woke up and found herself at the moonstone. Remembering her instruction, she followed the tunnel back to Mothermouth's entrance. As she stood at the entrance to Mothermouth, facing the other way, she felt so changed. She padded down the slope non-stop until she reached the bottom. When she was about to cross, she heard the low growl of what she now knew was a monster. She waited for the monster's growl to subside before she crossed the Thunderpath.

When she was safely at the other side, she tried to look for the barn, but the day was too foggy. Therefore, she was forced to continue padding in the same direction without questioning herself. Finally she reached a couple or large doors. Hoping she had found the barn, she entered.

Once she had entered, she knew she had found the barn because it had a lot of hay in it. Spottedpaw padded a bit further into the barn and she observed that the barn was teeming with rodents. Remembering Darkstripe's not-quite lesson, she quickly found a mouse, successfully crept up on it, caught it, and immediately sat down to eat.

"What are you doing here?" a voice asked nervously.
"My name is Spottedpaw. I didn't know that there was a cat living in this barn or I probably wouldn't have come." Spottedpaw meowed softly.
"Have y-you c-come to t-take m-me back?" the cat stammered.
"Take you back where?" Spottedpaw asked quizzically.
"BloodClan! Please, oh, please don't be here on BloodClan business!" the cat wailed.
"Please relax. I have absolutely no idea what this BloodClan even is." Spottedpaw meowed soothingly.
"Good."

The two cats turned around and finally caught sight of each other. Spottedpaw saw a mangled black and white cat while the other cat saw a small tortoiseshell cat, no more than six and a half moons old, one that couldn't possibly have been on BloodClan business. She was too well-groomed to be BloodClan.

"So what is your name?" Spottedpaw asked hesitantly.
"Barley," Barley answered.
"What is this BloodClan that you spoke of?" Spottedpaw asked inquisitively.
"BloodClan is a cruel clan. No elders and no sick. I ran away from BloodClan after my brothers, Snake and Ice, tried to kill my sister, Violet. I found her a home and ran away."
"That's-that's horrible!" Spottedpaw exclaimed.
"Horrible, definitely; but that is the way of BloodClan." Barley mewed sadly.
"I know I wouldn't want to live in BloodClan!" Spottedpaw meowed.
" I doubt any BloodClan residents want to live in BloodClan. Well, except for maybe Scourge, Bone and his guard." Barley retorted.
"Why don't you just join a clan?" Spottedpaw asked.
"I guess I'm more suited to living alone or with a companion. Yet if I ever want a companion, he would have to be at least six moons younger than you." Barley explained.
"I'm sorry you have to live alone like that. By the way, who is Scourge?" Spottedpaw wondered.

Spottedpaw was so absorbed in learning about who Scourge is in more than five words that she didn't notice the feathery whiskered tom approaching the barn.

"Hello, Spottedpaw." Featherwhisker greeted.
"Hello." Spottedpaw replied.
"We ought to be getting back to ThunderClan." Featherwhisker suggested.

They padded back to camp.

The second the two cats entered the gorse tunnel leading to camp, Bluestar saw them and immediately meowed the familiar summons.

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the Highrock for a clan meeting!" Bluestar's voice rang out before the entire camp.

As the cats gathered, Spottedpaw caught Tigerclaw, Darkstripe, and Longpaw looking at her as if she was a StarClan cat back from the dead. Mousepaw almost stumbled before approaching Spottedpaw, which was very unlike Mousepaw. More like her brother, Runningpaw.

"Darkstripe s-said you got hit by a-a monster!" Mousepaw exclaimed.
"He-He said you died!" Runningpaw stammered.
"Well, I don't know why Darkstripe would say such things. I'm very much alive." Spottedpaw mewed reassuringly.

The apprentices didn't notice that Bluestar was waiting until she yowled for silence. That was when all the cats were focused on what Bluestar had to say.
"Thats better." Bluestar meowed to herself before continuing. "Today we come together to finally give Spottedkit her apprentice name."

Murmurs of surprise came from the clan, mainly the apprentices, mainly Sunsetpaw, who just continued to repeat the same thing over and over, like a kid that continuously provokes anyone sent to the office.

"Featherwhisker, you have been our medicine cat for many moons. You have found a cat that is willing to become your apprentice. Spottedpaw will be your apprentice."

Loud 'ohhhhs' and 'now I get its' rose up from the listening cats, mainly the apprentices, mainly Sunsetpaw, who continued to repeat those 'ohhhhs' and 'now I get its,' driving the other cats mad.

As the cats disbanded, Featherwhisker flicked his tail, motioning for her to follow. Then he padded over to the medicine den. Spottedpaw tried to follow him, but she was blocked by a line of apprentices, mainly Sunsetpaw and company.

"So, you're an apprentice now!" Sunsetpaw meowed warmly.
"Want to be our friend?" Mousepaw tempted.
"Um, Sunsetpaw, Mousepaw, I have to leave you now. I'll get back to you later." Spottedpaw mewed hurriedly. Then she padded over to the medicine den before Sunsetpaw could regain her composure.

Spottedpaw entered the medicine den to find that Featherwhisker was treating Thistleclaw's nose.

"Thistleclaw hit his head when he was trying to fight a squirrel's den." Featherwhisker explained.
"It was hiding the squirrel." Thistleclaw growled. "My answer: fight the squirrel's den. Fight anything that doesn't go your way, that's my motto."
"Not too smart, was it?" remarked Featherwhisker.
Thistleclaw didn't reply.

Featherwhisker continued on treating Thistleclaw while Spottedpaw hovered outside the medicine clearing. She was greeted after a while by Runningpaw.

"Hi, Spottedpaw!" Runningpaw exclaimed, "Didn't expect to find you hovering outside the medicine den!"
"You were even less expected to be here." Spottedpaw meowed practically.
"Well, that doesn't matter." Runningpaw mewed hurriedly.
"So I am lead to assume that you have a reason for our meeting." Spottedpaw meowed educationally.
"Um, I guess so..." Runningpaw trailed off.
"I am lead to assume that your reason for talking to me is Sunsetpaw." Spottedpaw guessed.
"Um, yeah; I want to be noticed. And I think the only way to do that is by being Sunsetpaw's friend." Runningpaw admitted.
"You don't have to be popular to be noticed. If you work hard, you can achieve anything. The best recognition comes from working hard to do whatever you can for the clan." Spottedpaw advised.
"Are you saying that I can become popular by proving myself?" Runningpaw asked.
"Do you even need to be popular? You can just prove yourself without being popular." Spottedpaw pointed out.
"I'll do that." Runningpaw replied before becoming cool.

Coincidentally it seemed that Featherwhisker had finished treating Thistleclaw, and had watched the whole exchange. And he was obviously impressed. When Spottedpaw was back in the medicine clearing, Featherwhisker spoke.

"You give good advice. Runningpaw looked as if he was about to get a personality change." Featherwhisker commented.
"He did?"
"Of course he did. You didn't notice? Try to be more attentive." Featherwhisker meowed.
"I will." Spottedpaw resolved.

Okay, guys! I haven't picked a new fan fiction yet, but I wish to inform you that I'm starting a new fan fiction about how Tigerclaw came to be bloodthirsty. The best part is that everything is told from Goldenflower's POV. You like, no? But seriously, submit the characters already!
