Emberstar gazed at her clan from the high rock, she stayed upon the high rock ever since she was drug back to the camp, she had called a clan meeting only because what had happened. "I will retire now, my broken back is not going to make me a good leader," Emberstar begun, her deputy Jaguarclaw growled her protest, "Is something the matter Jaguarclaw?" The CrystalClan deputy padded foward, her eyes blazing. "I am not ready to be leader, may I stay deputy?" This was suprising, many cats agreed Jaguarclaw should be a clan leader due to her strength and ability within her clan. But, she turns it down so easily? Jaguarclaw ignored the angry growls amoung her clanmates, "Make Mistystream leader." She looked at her mother, soft eyes but the she-cat shook her head, padding over to Jaguarclaw, "No. I am expecting kits soon, I cannot be leader." Mistystreams voice was as beautiful as ever, she was young still and as beautiful as ever, and with the she-cat expecting kits that would be Emberstars half brothers, or half sisters she understood why Jaguarclaw was the only cat who could be leader right now.
"Jaguarclaw, you will be strong for you're clan as a leader. Please." Emberstar pleaded with her deputy, and finally the she-cat agreed. "Very well Emberstar,"
That night Jaguarclaw went to the MoonPool, and recieved her nine lives of a leader from StarClan. And returned back to CrystalClan's camp. As Jaguarstar called a clan meeting and called Emberstar to the highrock aswell. She had two cermonies to preform for Emberstar before she continued as CrystalClan leader.
"Spirits of StarClan, you know every cat by name. I ask you now to take away the name from the cat you see before you, for it no longer stands for what she is. By my authority as clan leader, and with the approval of our warrior ancestors, I give this cat a new name. From this moment on she will be known as Emberheart, for the fact she is no longer CrystalClan leader." Jaguarstar rested her muzzel on Emberhearts head, the she-cat licked the new clan leader on the shoulder as the clan called her new name, "Emberheart! Emberheart!" Jaguarstar sighed, as she continued onto with her second cermoney.
Jaguarstar: "Emberheart, is it your wish to give up the name of a warrior and go to join the elders?"
Emberheart: "It is."
Jaguarstar: Your clan honors you and all the service you have given us, I call upon StarClan to give you many seasons of rest." Jaguarstar rested her tail on Emberheart's shoulder, looking sorry that she'd had to do this. Emberheart then padded over to join the elders.
