Emberstar gazed up at the night sky, her eyes clouded with worry tonight was the night that SkyClan and CrystalClan were fighting over the tetorietty and she had such little faith that they would win without Swiftwing being around. Songflight was sitting in the clearing aiding Lionflight's wound to the head, nothing seemed to be going the way Emberstar wanted it too. Thing's seemed to have changed with the new clan living inside the forest, MoonClan lead by their leader Goldenstar. It had been about a season since the new clan moved in, and sadly, cat's from CrystalClan either retired or had joined StarClan this Leaf-bare. Ever since Jaggedtalon retired the clan seemed to be tired, and weaker. Emberstar agreed with many that maybe her father should have been leader instead of her. The nine lives given to the old tom would have given him strength, and more time within CrystalClan. "Emberstar. . . " Songflight mewed, the medicine cat padded next to her leader gazing at the stars, "You've also been worried." Songflight seemed to be calm, how could she tell Emberstar she was worried? The young leader turned to see Songflight gazing into the elder's den at her former mentor. Juniperwing. He truely was elderly, but retired to the elder's den intil he joined StarClan with his family, his beautiful mother Brindelpelt, and his father Hawktooth. Emberstar lifed her black tail to touch Songflight's shoulder, "You miss Juniperwing in the medicine den don't you Songflight?" The she-cat nodded closing her eyes, and then turning to enter the medicine den to prepare herbs and cobwebs for the returning injuried warriors.
Watching Mistystream limp heavily on her paws made her heart sink, Runningpelt and Blackfur were helping their mother to the medicine den, the light gray warrior's leg was compleatly ripped open. Who could have done that? She jumped from the rock and bounded over to where Mistystream lay and where Songflight was treating her, the medicine cat grasped light sandy fur from inbetween Mistystream's claws, that fur could only belong to the SkyClan warrior, Pegionflight. Emberstar growled, her mother didn't deserve to be injuried like that. Poolstar's warrior's were begining to become more blood thirsty in a battle. This was something she knew she would have to talk to Poolstar tomorrow night in the gathering, a loud yowl arose and Bluepaw apeared dragging his mentor's dead body into the clearing. No. . . Not Spottedfeather. . . Emberstar thought, her eyes began to form tears for her deputy, and her sister. SkyClan killed her kin! The leader growled, Fernleaf padded over to Emberstar mewing inside the leader's ear, "You have to chose a deputy now Emberstar, it's almost moon high!" The leader nodded sadly, then she turned jumping to the high rock the cats turned to face their leader, "I Emberstar, leader of CrystalClan name the new deputy infront of Spottedfeather's dead body hoping she smiles upon my choice," The she-cat looked around the clearing as if she was searching for the right warrior for the job as deputy, she knew her choice was perfect to say Jaggedtalon but, he was an elder. So instead she smiled upon one cat she knew could handel the role as a deputy, "Jaguarclaw will be our new deputy." The clan yowled happily, and Jaguarclaw sat silently as her clan-mates chanted her name into the night sky, after they stopped the she-cat stood to her paws, "I'm honored in becoming new deputy, and I will not let you, the clan, nor my former apprentice Spottedfeather down Emberstar." The she-cat then sat down once again as a nobel warrior would, her eyes fixed on her apprentice Twilightpaw.
"Onto better new's. Featherstorm's kit's have reached their sixth moon in being with us." Emberstar looked at the queen and nodded, Featherstorm and Cloudfoot nosed their kit's to the high rock. Patchkit was the most excited, the toriteshell and ginger tom bounded past his sister's, Hollykit a silver she-kit with purple eyes, & Speckalkit a white she-kit with toriteshell pathes on her head, and side, and dark yellow eyes. As the kit's sat at Emberstar's paw's the clan leader looked at Blackfur, "Blackfur you will mentor Speckalpaw. I hope you pass on what Darkfang's taught you to this young apprentice." Speckalpaw jumped from the high rock and the two touched noses, Blackfur deserved an apprentice the most of the whole clan, now she had to think of a mentor for Bluepaw, Patchpaw, and Hollypaw. She chose Darkfang to mentor Bluepaw, while Mistystream mentored Patchpaw, and Squirrelfang mentored Hollypaw. With the new apprentices moving into the apprentices den, and Featherstorm moving back into the warriors den it made Emberstar happy to see her clan growing and becoming stronger. It was going back to a better time when CrystalClan thrived from their land, and had plenty of warriors and apprentices to defend it. Yawning Emberstar dismissed her clan to their dens for a night of rest, for whoever wanted it she knew should watch Spottedfeather's body over night with those closest to the dead warrior.
