Kits of a Leader Part 9- A new threat begins.

    Swiftstar looked down and sadness at Briarclan below. "We don't have to do this to them. The prophecy cats have done their part." she growled to a cat in the shadows.
    "We must test their strength, and let them conquer their greatest weaknesses. They must learn to let go of their ties to other cats. Their loved ones... aren't as important as the fate of the whole clan." the cat rumbled back. Swiftstar bent her head in understanding. It would just be a test...... to see if the prophecy cats could withstand what new treat was coming toward them.
    "Swiftstar, you know that this enemy is trouble for all cats in the spirit world." the cat insisted. The cat stepped out of the darkness, his grey tabby fur covered in blackness and his eyes shone dully.
   "All of us." Hawkeyes said.

>Swiftstar/Hawkeyes<

     A group of cats traveled though the forest, mist rolling out from behind them. Their eyes shown with cold darkness, not showing any signs of life. At the head was a pure white she-cat. "Are you ready? Remember, we are here to do our job, what the sides of the Dark Forest and Starclan have created us to do." she said in a leader like voice. "We have to be like them. We are them. And we have the same feelings." she said to the cats. "Don't let them get to you. We must stay strong." she said. A grey and white she-cat and a grey tom branched off. "Good luck, Willowsun, Breezeflame." the white she-cat said, grinning. They both laughed back, running towards Brokenclan territory.
     "Off to Briarclan, then." the white she-cat said. "Off to briarclan." the clone prophecy cats said.

Slowly, the misty cats surrounded the cats. The original prophecy cats just, disappeared and the others took their place, each with a grin on their faces.

    Frostriver was busy licking her kits when a black mist surrounded her, and she was in a dimly lit clearing. She automatically recognized the border between starclan and the dark forest.
   She looked around to see the other prophecy cats there, and glared at Duskgaze, who met her stare. "It wasn't me." she retored, and Frostriver was confused. How did they get there?"

New warriors.

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the thickbranch for a clan meeting!" Searingstar called, seeing the clan gather around.

"It is time for four apprentices to become warriors." Searingstar said, sadness shadowing his eyes.

"Burntpaw, Spiritedpaw, Ashpaw, and Thistlepaw step forward!" he called. He knew that Emberpaw should've been here, too.

"I, Searingstar, leader of Briarclan call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on these apprentices. They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and we condemn them as warriors in their turn." he said.

"Burntpaw, Spiritedpaw, Thistlepaw, Ashpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, and protect and defend this clan, even if it cost your lives?"

[says(i do)]

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

"Burntpaw, you shall be known as Burntsky! Starclan honors your loyalty, and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

"Spiritedpaw, you shall be known as Spiritedmoon! Starclan honors your Bravery, and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

"Thistlepaw, you shall be known as Thistlerose! Starclan honors your determination and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

"Ashpaw, you shall be known as Ashcinder. Starclan honors your determination and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

Burntsky! Spiritedmoon! Thistlerose! Ashcinder!" the cats cheered and Searingstar leaped down from the branch ready to go into his den when a sharp cry sounded from the nursery. He ran in to see Frostriver with a look of pain on her face.

"The kits are coming!"

Songclan

 "Searingstar, back on out territory, there is a great storm, we barely made it out alive, I am not sure if we all are, could we please take refuge here, our camp was destroyed... we need to wait until the storm blows over, and then, we will find a new camp, please?" Arkstar, the new leader of Songclan as Searingstar recognized, said. Searingstar's eyes widened.

This will be my first good deed as a leader. "Your welcome to stay." Searingstar said.

Three apprentices and two warriors

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the thickbranch for a clan meeting!" Searingstar yowled as he leaped onto the Thickbranch.

"We have three new apprentices today! Murkpaw, Charcoalkit, and Bronzekit step forward"

"Murkpaw, From this moment on, until you receive your warrior name, you shall keep your name as Murkpaw,"

"Charcoalkit, from this moment on, until you receive your warrior name, you shall be known as Charcoalpaw!"

"Bronzekit, from this moment on, until you recieve your warrior name, you shall be known as Bronzepaw!"

"Murkpaw! Charcoalpaw! Bronzepaw!" the cats cheered.

"And two new warriors." he said.

"Cinderpaw and Lightpaw step forward!"

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

"Cinderpaw and Lightpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, and protect and defend this clan, even if it cost your life?" he asked them

"I do!" they exclaimed.

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

"Lightpaw, you shall be known as Lightheart! Starclan honors your compassion and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

"Cinderpaw, you shall be known as Cinderblaze. Starclan honors your hunting skills and we welcome you as a full warrior of Briarclan!"

"Cinderblaze! Cinderblaze! Lightheart! Lightheart!"


"That is all." Searingstar said, going into his den.

Frostriver smiled and watched as Searingstar went into his den. Frostriver sat down heavily, thinking. How should I tell him...
