Silverclaw's Memories

The following 6 months as a kit was a bit terrifying. Riverclan threatened to attack, foxes attacked and my father lost his last life fighting the foxes so Fernflower became Fernstar, Flowerkit ate death berries in the medicine cat den and my mother ran away to become a rouge because she was caught killing a sun clan warrior for revenge. Everyone hates me! yay.

"Silverkit, from now on you will be called Silverpaw and Goldengaze will be your mentor." Fernstar yowled.

"Silverpaw! Silverpaw! Silverpaw!" The clan congratulated me.

"We're going to the glistening cave with Fernstar so she can recive her nine lives Silverpaw." Goldengaze said.

"Yayz! This is my 2nd time though..." I murmured.

Goldengaze swiped her tail over my snout. "Cheer up Silverpaw. Remember no one can know that your Shadefur."

"Of course your majesty." I scoffed. "When are we leaving?"

"Right now." Fernstar meowed.

Once we were outside of camp, Fernstar asked "Are you really Shadefur?"

"WHAT. HOW DO YOU KNOW." I growled.

"Don't talk to your leader that way! But how do you know?" Goldengaze asked.

"Starclan sent me a dream. Your siblings told me to say that they missed you." Fernstar said.

I looked ahead and saw the glistening cave, without caring what my mentor or leader said I just sprinted in. The diamonds on the walls were how you would meet star clan. You stick your paw on to a diamond and in less than a second starclan will be staring at you.

"Silverpaw, be careful when you fight. You have no ordinary strength. Power of fight still lives inside of you I mean how do you think you were able to follow Goldengaze all the way here as a kit? Any ordinary kit would have possibly died of exhaustion." Ashstar whispered. I leaned against my dead father and savored every second of it.

"I have two fathers don't I." I meowed.

He nodded. "This won't be forever though, I'll wait for you starclan."

I awoke in the afternoon with Fernstar and Goldengaze starting to wake up beside me. We traveled to the cave in the morning which was right after Fernflower became Fernstar. If the moon was rising, tradition would be broken because all leaders must choose their deputies before moon rise.

"Are we ready to get back to camp?" Goldengaze mewed.

"I guess." I replied.

Fernstar looked troubled while we were traveling back. "Whats wrong?" I asked her.

"I don't know who to choose for deputy!" Fernstar wailed.

"How about Silverslash?" Goldengaze suggested.

"Oh that would perfect." Fernstar purred.

"Join me at bramble ledge if you can eat a mouse!" The leader yowled.

"Is she appointing a deputy?" Silverslash asked.

"Yes. How would you like being a deputy?" I sneered.

"I'd be honored." Silverslash purred.

"We will all miss Ashstar, but we must move on. Let us start by appointing a new deputy. Silverslash, do you accept the offer to become sunclans deputy?" Fernstar asked.

"I do." Silverslash dipped her head. "I will do whatever it takes to keep this clan healthy!"

"SILVERSLASH SILVERSLASH SILVERSLASH!" The clan yowled.

The next day Fernstar told me to come in her den to discus "important" matters. "Our new medicine cat apprentice Tansypaw told me that Silverslash's end as deputy will be soon. I will have to appoint a new deputy, do you want to be deputy?"

"I'm just an apprentice!" I mewed.

"I know you still have the spirit of a great warrior from your past life, I will give you your warrior name and a apprentice immediately!" She hissed.

"I'm sorry to say but I do not want to become a deputy or a mentor. Fighting is what I do so I want to do more border patrols and be a warrior named Silverclaw." I tried to hide my surprise inside me.

Fernstar sighed "Very well. But then whose deputy?"

"Goldengaze." I mewed.
