The Gathering and Stormwater

   "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the thickbranch for a clan meeting!" Briarberry said, leaping up on the branch. As the cats gathered, Briarberry drew in a breath.

>Briarberry<

 (i'll update this post when madi and me finish commenting at the river *hint hint something big*)

*Update*


Swiftstar padded back to camp, her eyes darted wearily from side to side, and jumped up on the branch next to Briarberry.

"Cats of Briarclan! I have Grave news! Stormwater, our beloved deputy has left us! I do not know where he went, but he is a traitor to the clan by taking on a mate, Frozenheart. Who is now, Frozenstar, leader of Brokenclan. I will appoint a new deputy."

"Briarberry! You are a loyal and brave warrior, a credit to the clan, you will be Briarclan's deputy!"

"Briarberry! Briarberry! Briarberry!" the cats cheered, snapped out of thier grief.

"And Frostpaw and Darkpaw are missing, i shall ask the leaders at the gathering tonight if they have seen them!:" she announced.

"Let's go."

Kits Of a Leader Part 6- Frozenstar

   "Frozenheart." The grey and white she-cat stood up, looking at the direction of the voice that had called her name.

       "Frozenheart, Frozenheart." her name became a chant. She turned around in a full circle, snarling a challenge. "Who's there?" she spat. "Show yourself!" her voice echoed of the bare pale trees, across the exposed packed earth. One by one shadows darted out of the dark mist that concealed them, forming a hard line. It took Frozenheart a moment to realize they were cats. She bared her teeth, and the cats advanced, she saw them more clearly under the light that came from nowhere. Greystar walked up to her.

   "We have brought you here to give you your role, and rise you up from where you stand." he said, his voice echoing menace. "To give you your line lives as a leader." he added. "Will you accept this position, to lead Brokenclan through greater times, times where they are feared and crush their enemies in the dust?" Frozenheart dipped her head at once, her eyes gleaming.

     "Then so be it." Greystar said. She looked at all the cats, some familiar others not. Their eyes were filled with not hatred or malice, nor pride. They looked as if they were eying a plump piece of fresh-kill. The first cat came up to her. It was Darkenedstar, the leader before her father. She stepped forward, touching her nose to Frozenheart's forehead.

   "With this life I give you confidence. Use it well to get through any battle, no matter what the odds." she said, and the life flowed through Frozenheart like a black wave. The next cat padded up to her, but more like stalked over to her. She realized it was the former medicine cat, Deadsoul. He touched touched his nose to hers.

 "With this life I give you knowledge." he rasped. "Use it well to uncover all of your enemies weaknesses." he said, and when this life came into her, she felt her power rising. The next cat who came over to her was her mother, Wingshard.

  "With this life I give you power. Use it to keep your rank in your clan and your rank above all mortal cats." Wingshard said, and the life was smooth and clean, and Frozenheart wanted more even when her mother padded back in the crowd. Flickstar came up, his eyes gleaming, clearly still remembering that it was Frozenheart who killed him. Though he was giving her a life, anyway.

"With this life I gave you Tireless energy. Use it well to have unlimited strength when charging in the front line." he said, and the life felt similar to the one Wingshard had given her. Closing her eyes, she embraced it, feeling higher then all other cats.  Flickstar stalked away, and Snakepaw took his place. She remembered Snakepaw, one of her brothers, who died.
      
          He was killed after going on a search patrol to bring back exiles. Those exiles happened to be Copperpaw, Heatpaw, Poppypaw, and herself, Frozenpaw, then. Exiled from their own clan by speaking out to Greystar, the littermates grouped together. Copperpaw and Poppypaw wanted to change their names, while Frozenpaw and Heatpaw kept theirs. She remembered, Copperpaw became Copper. While Poppypaw changed her name to Floe. But the patrol found the four of them, and Frozenheart attacked Snakepaw herself, killing him. Their group got scattered, and Heatpaw was the only one left. The Copper and Floe, probably dead. That was when they found their way to Briarclan. Shaking off the memory, Snakepaw began to speak.

    "With this life I give you strength. Use it well to endure hard times from both weather and enemies." he said, and she blinked, he was gone, and another cat took his place. Shaderiver, the deputy before Flameblaze was before her. She touched her nose to her ear.

     "With this life I give you persuasion. Use it well to gain your allies' trust." she said, and this life somehow stung harshly, but for some reason Frozenheart knew it shouldn't. Probably because the lives before that had been so painless. Next came Smallkit, and Frozenheart remembered him with a pang. He was her friend when they were kits, but she remembered that Darkenedstar killed him for being too weak. He reared up on his hind legs, stretching so that his nose touched hers.

    "With this life I give you a clear mind. Use it to make the right decisions and not to be clouded by judgement." he mewed, letting her take the life and then padding slowly back. The cats parted, a new cat came through the crowd. It was a lithe grey tabby tom, with gleaming eyes that seemed to burn her. He stopped a few mouse-lengths in front of her. "I am Hawkeyes." he announced, and Frozenheart then nodded, hearing the stories about him when she once lived in Briarclan.

    "With this life I give you wisdom and insight. Use it well to learn more about yourself and others." he said, and Frozenheart crumpled to the ground. Or she felt like it, because her eyes were shut tight in pain. Several heart-beats later is subsided, and she opened back her eyes, seeing that she did not move at all. The last cat to come to her was Greystar. He stalked up to Frozenheart boldly.

    "Frozenheart." he began. "My daughter. You have now clawed up to the ranks as leader, and will have full control over Brokenclan as it's sole Leader." he said, ,and touched his nose to her forehead.

     "With this life I give you Courage. Use it well to assure faith in yourself as well as others, and to lead your clan to greater times." he finished, and her last and painful life spread through her like a virus, but it was quickly over. Gasping, she looked back up at her father.

  "We strip away your old life, and give you your new one. Frozenstar, leader of brokenclan." he said, and the cats stayed silent, not even chanting her name, but melted away back into the darkness

  Frozenstar blinked, and suddenly Greystar looked Calmer. "Frozenstar, you will come across cats. With powers like none ever before. Take them in and use them as an Advantage." he said.

"Frost glitters on Petals, Willows, and Webs.
The Raven's wings are Dark as they Spread.
Dusk gives way and surrenders to light,
then Blossoms again with all it's might.
Battles will Turn, choices will be made,
And a Breeze will change their present day." he rasped.

                                  ~<>~

     "Darkpaw and Frostpaw are joining Brokenclan, so treat them with respect." Frozenheart said from her perch, as soon as she got back from the patrol to with Flameblaze and Lizardclaw.

   "Lizardclaw, you will mentor Darkpaw. Teach him your cunning ways and your stealth." she said.

    "Archear, you will mentor Frostpaw, Teach her your battle skill." Frozenstar added.

"Darkpaw! Darkpaw! Frostpaw! Frostpaw!" the cats of Brokenclan cheered half-heartily.

>Frozenstar<

Ceremonies and Mysterious Joiner

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the thickbranch for a clan meeting!" Swiftstar said.

"There are many ceremonies to preform!" she announced. "Sleekpaw, Bramblepaw, Frostpaw, Branchpaw, Moonpaw, Gingerpaw, and Cloudpaw step forward!"

"I, Swiftstar, leader of Briarclan call apon my warrior ancestors to look down on these apprentices! They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I condem them as warriors in their turn.

"Sleekpaw, Bramblepaw, Frostpaw, Branchpaw, Moonpaw, Gingerpaw, and Cloudpaw. Do you promise to uphold the warrior code, and protect and defend this clan, even if it cost your life?" her voice rang out clearly.

"I do." the apprentices say in unison.

"Then by the powers of starclan I give you your warrior names!"

"Sleekpaw, you shall be known as Sleekpelt."

"Bramblepaw, you shall be known as Brambleflame!"

"Frostpaw, you shall be know as Frostheat!"

"Moonpaw, you shall be known as Moongaze!"

"Gingerpaw, you shall be known as Gingerstripe."

"Cloudpaw you shall be known as Cloudpelt."

"Sleekpelt! Brambleflame! Frostheat! Moongaze! Gingerstripe! Cloudpelt!" the clan cheered the warriors new names.

"Also, it is time for four kits to become apprentices! Cinderkit, Lightkit, Bladekit, and Turnkit step forward!

"From this moment on, untill you receive your warrior names, you shall be known as Cinderpaw, Lightpaw, Bladepaw, and Turnpaw!"

"Cinderpaw! Lightpaw! Bladepaw! Turnpaw!" The clan irrupted into cheers again. After a few heart-beats the cheers turned to murmurs of Confusion, and the cats parted and a new cat stepped through, a Brown tabby tom with blazing amber eyes. His pelt was criss-crossed with scars of battle, yet he smelled of leaves and trees.

"Who are you?" Swiftstar said to the cat. "My name is Copper." he said. "And I wish to join your clan." he said. Swiftstar narrowed her eyes for a second, but then they grew softer. Maybe this cat and Floe will bring up the reputation for outsiders... maybe.

"Well then you may." she said after a moment's hesitation. Some of the cats muttered dissaprovingly, probably thinking of Frozenheart. Others looked at him with shining eyes.

"I, Swiftstar, leader of Briarclan look apon this cat. He has wished to become a loyal member of Briarclan, and so he shall be."

"Copper, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, and protect and defend this clan, even if it costs your life?" she asked, and Briarberry whispered in his ear,

"I do." he said.

"Then by the powers of starclan I give you your warrior name. Copper, you shall be known as Copperflare."

"Copperflare! Copperflare! Copperflare!" the cats cheered half-heartedly.

>Swiftstar<

Kits if a Leader Part 5- Frostpaw/Frozenheart

    Frostpaw held back a snarl as she watched as the furious Stormwater ran back to camp. Darkpaw ripped up the grass with his claws.
    "What's up with him? Swiftstar told me he wanted to kill Frozenheart when they found out she killed Brownspots!" she wondered, and Darkpaw just shrugged. How could Stormwater defend that piece of fox-dung like that? Frostpaw growled in frustration. But then an idea came to her mind. Maybe she could see what exactly BrokenClan is going to do with Frozenheart. At least that would give her some satisfaction that she did the right thing by letting the BrokenClan cats take her away.
 "Maybe we should spy on them." she said, grinning. "To see exactly what kind of torture their putting her though." she laughed. Darkpaw smiled back at her. "Perfect" he purred, his eyes glinting in the promise of an adventure. Yes!
   Frostpaw nodded. "Right now?" she asked, her forepaws kneading the grass in impatience. Darkpaw nodded back. "Okay, let's go." she said, smirking and started stalking towards the BrokenClan border. Finally a real adventure for once, and a good one, too! she thought. Suddenly Darkpaw halted, and she turned around to see why. He was staring at some mud.
   "We should roll in that to cover our scent" Darkpaw suggested.  "Ok" Frostpaw said, and they both rolled around in the puddle of mud till they looked unrecognizable. Frostpaw wrinkled her nose.
   Darkpaw laughed. "We smell awful." he observed. Frostpaw rolled her eyes, suddenly anxious to move on. 
"Cmon let's go" Frostpaw said, and kept on walking, with Darkpaw following. She soon spotted the Brokenclan camp, and then she could smell it. It smelled like crowfood, and almost knocked her off her paws right then and there. She heard Darkpaw whisper "Yuck." yeah, that was an understatement. She slowly padded up to the barrier of thorns and saw a small hole. Yeah they really do a good job of having a strong barrier, huh. 
         She peered through it, seeing the camp clearly for the first time. Most of the cats were in their dens, and pairs of eyes gleamed from them. Frostpaw almost shivered as it felt like it they were all staring at her. 
  Then she saw cats out in the clearing, on a few of them, some with their eyes darting anxiously around. But then Frostpaw saw it. She saw her. Frostpaw held back another snarl. They weren't punishing her! It was like she was a member again, and was chatting with some of the other cats. What a disappointment. She thought bitterly. She deserves to be killed, that's what. Not this. 
     She nodded, telling Darkpaw that she found Frozenheart. "What are they doing to her?" Darkpaw whispered. 
    "Nothing.... nothing at all she's just sitting there." Frostpaw said rigidly. "But... I thought.." Darkpaw trailed off. "Once evil, always evil like a said." she hissed quietly. Then she realized something. Why hadn't she thought about before?
   "She's probably telling them all our secrets!" she hissed, her eyes wide. She could tell Darkpaw was scared, like her in some ways. "We got to stop her!" Darkpaw meowed determinedly. Frostpaw looked through the hole again, seeing Flameblaze disappear through the entrance. At that second, a plan was already forming in her head. "I think Flameblaze is out of camp." she told Darkpaw, and her face lit up as her fur started turning dark ginger.  Darkpaw smiled at Frostpaw. "I'll be a rouge you found out of camp, just call me Dark."
   ''Ok" she said, and after she completely looked like Flameblaze, and walked into camp with Darkpaw trailing behind. As soon as they entered, Flickstar walked up to them, his eyes narrowing. "Who is this?" he asked scathingly. 
  "A rouge, Flickstar, I found him on our territory she said in new, lower voice. Flickstar's gaze passed onto Darkpaw. 
    "What's your name, rouge, and why are you on our territory?" He growled at Darkpaw.  Darkpaw growled back. "My names Dark, and I was on your territory on accident, just chasing a mouse, when your friend over here caught me" he said, flicking his tail at Frostpaw.
  "Ah, a mouse." Flickstar said, rolling his eyes. "You can go." he growled to Frostpaw, dismissing her. "I'll talk to this 'Dark' trespasser. And Frostpaw glanced at Darkpaw for a second, her look saying 'I got a plan.'
  This is going to be perfect. She thought, and walked over to sit next to Frozenheart.


>Frostpaw<


    Frozenheart watched Flameblaze come in.  Being Greystar's only kit, they always expected most out off her, but what now? After they took her away to Brokenclan's camp, she was treated as a regular member. 
     Which is worse than being held prisoner in Briarclan she thought, but then shook it away as she spotted a rouge come in after the deputy. His fur was plastered with mud but his eyes gave off nothing. Frozenheart rolled her own eyes, as Flickstar came up to them, and started talking. After a few growls that she couldn't decipher, she heard Flickstar say. "I'll handle this, 'Dark' trusspasser" then Flameblaze came over to sit by her. Oddly, there was an odd grin on his face, though somehow familiar. But not like the old Flamepaw was. She thought. 
         "Can you do me a big favor?" he asked, and Frozenheart narrowed her eyes.
"That depends on what the favor is." she shot back. Again Flameblaze grinned oddly, ignoring her tone and made a face that looked utterly calm.
    "Oh, one that you'd quite enjoy. And you'd probably gain something out of it." he added. It immediatley sparked her interest. She pricked her ears to listen and Flameblaze leaned in and whispered two words.
      "Kill Flickstar.."


>Frozenheart<


    Frostpaw smiled. Now Frozenheart would be killed by Flickstar, which is what she deserved. Frostpaw saw her nod slightly, then leap right onto Flickstar's back, him yowling in surprise and the both of them wrestling on the ground. Darkpaw was staring at Frostpaw, taking a step back. Frostpaw was confused for a heart-beat. What was wrong? Shrugging, she edged closer to Darkpaw to explain.
  "Now she won't even get a chance." she snickered to him. Flickstar's and Frozenheart's yowls brought out cats from their dens, their eyes sparking in interest. Flickstar had Frozenheart pinned down, and Frostpaw willed for him to just kill her already
  "How is that gonna get us out of here?" he growled "Your so caught up in trying to get Frozenheart killed, your going to kill us!" he added. Frostpaw looked confused again.
 "How? They think I'm the deputy, and your a rouge and no one wil even pay attention to you or even to me because of this fight. Thus covering up our problem and our spying." she whispered back. She was amused that the fact she was bigger than Darkpaw now, and almost laughed but didn't because it would be out of place in the serious situation that was happening.
    Suddenly, Frozenheart dug her claws into Flickstar's neck, all the way down to his  tail. Blood stained the clearing, and Flickstar laid still, waking up again and he kept doing that, over and over. Frostpaw flinched. He deserved to die too, anyway. I bet he's killed many cats who DIDN'T deserve it.
  "She killed him!" Darkpaw whispered. "What do we do now?"
Frostpaw's jaw hun open as Flickstar lay unmoving on the ground. He lost his remaining lives. Frozenheart was still alive.
       "She's still alive." she muttered. Frozenheart looked around, a challenge in her eyes. "Who will be the leader now?" one cat asked. "It must be Flameblaze, he's the deputy." another cat answered. Some cats cast glances Frostpaw's way. "But it was Frozenheart who killed him. It's her right to take her place." Lizardclaw muttered. Frostpaw glared at him, him probably mistaking it as her wanting be be leader. But really it was the fact that, Frozenheart might be the new leader. Frostpaw's plan had totally backfired for the first time.
  "I told you!" Darkpaw hissed, he looked rigid, maybe anxious to go back home. 
  "Should we get out of here?" Frostpaw said back. Everyone was still distracted, so they could get out without a problem. And Frostpaw was worried when the real Flameblaze would come back
  "Duh." Darkpaw said, and the both bolted out the camp, Frostpaw switching back to her regular form.


>Frostpaw<


    "Well?" Frozenheart glared at the cats who were looking at her with Shocked eyes as she stood beside Flickstar's bloody body.
  "Does any cat dare deny me being leader?" She snarled at them, and no one said a word. "Then do you accept?" She asked in a slightly softer tone. The cats nodded, whether out of fear or admiration she did not know.
   "From this moment forward." she began. "We will no longer be a band of kittypet warriors who are beaten by the cowardly fools known as Briarclan. We shall be warriors! With me leading you, we will be the most feared clan in the forest! We will kill anyone that stands in our path." she said.
  "But first, we must gain that power and reputation. We will work twice as hard as that fool Flickstar, or even my father ever had. We must gain numbers! Find cats who want to show Briarclan who's the more pathetic ones now. I will be going to the dark tree tomorrow to receive my nine lives and my name as a leader!" She finished.


>Frozenheart<

Kits of a Leader Part 4- Frostpaw

        Frostpaw stepped into the open, from the concealed fronds. The three brokenclan cats pinning Stormwater down looked up in astonishment, and so did Flameblaze, the Brokenclan deputy.
   "G-g-greystar!" Flameblaze stammered, utterly shocked. Frostpaw tried not to smile. So I disguised myself as the leader of Brokenclan. she thought. Good choice.
    She looked at who Flameblaze was pinning down. Frozenheart. She almost spat with disgust. Frostpaw was about to continue the charade when Flameblaze interrupted her.
  "But your dead." he said. "You can't be alive! You died of greencough." he said, then stared for a few heart beats longer. "Impossible." he spat. "You must be a look-a-like" he growled, and looked Frostpaw straight in the eye. "We'll deal with you, later." he said. "As for you." he said, digging his claws into Frozenheart deeper. "Your coming with us." he said. Frostpaw made no move to stop them. Frozenheart deserved this. She hoped whatever punishments they give out in Brokenclan were worse than this.
  "B-but Flameblaze!" One of the brokenclan cats holding Stormwater down stuttered. "We are following Flickstar's orders." Flameblaze snapped at the cat, now Frostpaw recognized him as Lizardclaw. Frostpaw just dipped her head, and narrowed her eyes. How could I made such a stupid mistake! I should've changed into the deputy, Flicktalon.  Flickstar now.
  "Go ahead and take her." she spat back, not caring if she's in charge or not. Flameblaze shot her a glare, but said nothing. He shuffled Frozenheart along, who didn't seem to struggle. Was this what she wanted all along? Did she forget how harsh, unforgiving, and evil the Brokenclan cats are? Just like herself. She shot a pain-filled glance at Stormwater, but the three guards let go of Stormwater, who was trying to shake from their grasp. They quickly followed behind Flameblaze, with Lizardclaw being the last and glaring at them a heartbeat longer but then disappearing. All five of them running in a tight circle around Frozenheart.
  Frostpaw wondered, what now? She didn't look like herself, yet she couldn't change, not in front of Stormwater. She could tell Darkpaw was watching this scene, and came out of the bushes.
   "I saw the whole thing." Darkpaw said, looking at the Briarclan deputy and then at Frostpaw. "Who are you?" he asked her, obviously trying to keep up the act. She looked between them quickly. "A loner." she rumbled and the took off, running through the trees. As soon as she was out of sight of them , she transformed into herself and ran back, panting as if she ran because of the danger.
  "What's going on?" she asked Darkpaw and Stormwater. "I scented Brokenclan scent." she breathed, and  they told her what had just happened.

(sorry madi and Em, but it fit with the story so i kinda used your cats.)

The Beginning of the End.

     Swiftstar opened her eyes. She was in a lush, green forest. Have I lost a life? she thought, thinking it must be so, because she was no where near the moon-stream to visit with starclan. Slowly, she remembered. There was nothing wrong, with her, so she must be dreaming. It was a good dream, too. She could here the forest twittering with bird-song. Swiftstar could hear mice squeaking near the roots of the trees. And there were flowers everywhere. Blossoming with different colors. But she sensed something behind her. Something dark, and sinister. She whirled around, seeing something entirely different. There was a line, a line between the dark and the light. The dark side had bare trees, that looked as pale as bones, A thick, choking blackness just rolled out from all directions, and Swiftstar wrinkled her nose in disgust. These places were complete opposites, and after a few heartbeats she recognized where she was. At the boundary between Starclan and the Dark forest.
     Swiftstar held back a gasp, but curiousity overcame her at once. What was she doing, here? Of all places? She peered into the darkness, then recoiled. A pair of gleaming eyes were staring right back at her, and the owner of those eyes stepped out where she could see it.
  A large, muscular, grey and white cat walked up to Swiftstar. Scars criss-crossed on his pelt. Recognition flowed though Swiftstar like a black wave. It was Greystar, the leader of Brokenclan.
  "Your dead?" she asked him, wondering to herself why he wouldn't be attacking, and came to that conclusion. Greystar growled. "Unfortunatley, I am." he said. "I was sent here to tell you this:"

"you have two choices,

 only one you can cover,
 one leads to death,
 and death the other.
 Then an obstacle,
 you cannot pass,
 so live each day,
 like it's your last ."

He rasped, and then chuckled. "Three lives left, Swiftstar..... the time is already dwindling.........."

Very sad news

      "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the thickbranch for a clan meeting!" Swiftstar announced, her clan-mated slipping out of the shadows silently, with thier eyes gleaming with wearyness.
   Her own eyes gleamed with pain. "Cats of Briarclan." she started out. "Brownspots has passed on." she said, and the clan erupted in murmers of shock. The sounds spread like a ripples in the water among the cats. She sighed, feeling the same. But she dreaded what she had to say next, that would devestate the whole clan. Her legs almost trembled. How would they react? What if they got too mad, and did something that her nor Stormwater could controll? She remebered Stormwater's readyness to spring the other day, to get back at Frozenheart. She didn't think he would be much help in controlling the angry clan cats from tearing her apart. Swiftstar couldn't let that happen. If she let them kill her, then they wouldn't be better than she was. Or maybe, like her, it would only add onto thier grief. It was them who drove her away in the first place, from their lack of trust in her. She felt similar feeling from when she found out Hawkeyes killed Liontooth. Like it was all her fault.... she shook it away.
   "Lilyfrost will be the sole medicine cat now." Swiftstar said, watching as the now slender she-cat stepped forward and dipped her head, grief for her mentor shone clearly from her eyes. The clan cheered softly, all of them excepting Lilyfrost had kits. Swiftstar was the traitor more, for having kits with a cat from another clan. She did that, and way more. Cowardly running away from the clan, watching Hawkeyes and Frozenheart slipp away from her so easily.. for a second she thought she couldn't go on living, Swiftstar shook this away as fell. The clan needs me.... Right?
     "Frozenheart  has killed Brownspots." And she didn't want to wait for thier reaction, she leaped off the thickbranch and dissapeared into her own den.
  What a coward I am..
