The Great Battle Begins

Winterclaw padded about at the entrance of the camp. It was quiet that night. He sat down and began to wash his paws. His ears pricked suddenly. He looked up into glowing green eyes. Then he was dead.

"That was just too easy." Chem laughed. She turned to the group of rouges behind her. "Come," she meowed. "Tonight we gain more territory."

Blossomglow pricked her ears. She couldn't sleep. She knew what was going down tonight, and she couldn't stop thinking about it. She turned to look at her brother. She poked him until he woke up.

"Huh?" Firefang opened his eyes slowly. "What?"

"Its about to begin."

"What is?" Firefang sat up quickly.

"The Great Battle." There was a yowl from outside.

"It's already begun!" Firefang and Blossomglow raced outside.

Six New and One Refreshed

Icewing sat with Pounceheart at the fresh-kill pile, sharing a piece of prey. Then Swiftclaw and Pineheart entered, weighed down with prey. "Swiftclaw." She said curtly.
"Icewing." he replied, setting down his catch and exiting quickly.
"What was that all about?" Pounceheart meowed, but Icewing shook her head. "Look, Jaystar's making an announcement."
"Cats of MossClan, gather to hear this announcement!" Jaystar called. "Today, we welcome six kits into apprenticeship. Snowkit,  please step up." He watched the kittens leap over to the front. "Snowkit. From this moment on, until you recieve your warrior name, you shall be known as Snowpaw. Your mentor will be Seamist." He let the two touch noses. Then he continued on to name the other apprentices. Nightpaw's mentor was Mousetail, Spottedpaw's mentor was Cherrycloud, Willowpaw's was Blossomglow, Duskpaw's Smokestep, and Tinypaw's was Hollyfeather.
"Also, Minnowpaw deserves to become a warrior. Come up here Minnowpaw." Jaystar looked down at the she-cat. "I, Jaystar, leader of MossClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend her to you as a warrior in her turn.
"Minnowpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, to defend and protect your clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do." Minnowpaw meowed bravely.
"Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Minnowpaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Minnowstream. StarClan honors your logic and understanding, and we welcome you as a full warrior of MossClan."

Minnowstream! Minnowstream!

Berries and Burns

Willowkit and Spottedkit peered down at the berries. "So, these are Juniper?" Spottedkit meowed.
"Yeah!" Willowkit replied. She picked one of the berries delicately in her teeth, then set it down beside her. "We have to pick these for Greymist."
"Okay!" Spottedkit grabbed one roughly and it burst in her mouth. "Oops!"
"It's okay, I'll have one, too!" Willowkit giggled and popped one in her mouth. A few seconds later, she groaned. "I don't feel good." She meowed to Spottedkit, but when she looked over at her, the she-cat was writhing in pain. And then the pain hit her.

Icewing pressed against Pounceheart and purred. "Want to go for a walk?" She suggested.
"Sure." Pounceheart agreed. The two padded out of the camp. Then Pounceheart heard something. He pricked his ears.
"What is it?" Icewing asked, her fur fluffed up and her voice hushed. "Invaders?"
"I don't know." Pounceheart whispered back. "Follow me." He stalked through the bushes toward a soft rustling noise. He jumped out into a clearing to see two kits writhing in pain on the ground.
Icewing padded in after the tom, and gasped. "Deathberries!" She exclaimed when she saw the dark berries scattered on the ground. Instantly she swooped in to Spottedkit. She opened the she-kit's mouth and pulled out a piece of the berry. Then she turned to Willowkit. Doing the same thing, she said to Pounceheart, "Get some yarrow. Quick!"
She pulled out the berry from Willowkit's mouth as Pounceheart returned. She put one leaf into each of the kits' mouths and watched as they swallowed, then threw up. She grimaced, then shook herself. Focus. You have to keep helping them. You can't just sit there because of a little puke. She turned to Pounceheart. "We have to get them to Greymist." She meowed.
"Right." Pounceheart agreed, seeming relieved that he could help in some way. He picked up Willowkit, and Icewing delicately picked up Spottedkit.

Icewing padded through the woods alone. It was late in the day, and the sun as setting on another beautiful day. She padded up toward her favorite place to watch the sunset. She saw someone else up there. Swiftclaw. The two had used to come up here together before...well, it didn't matter. She padded up to him and sat down next to him.
The tom turned toward her, and Icewing saw for the first time his pain-striken face and red eyes. She breathed in quickly, and looked away.
Swiftclaw stared at her, and asked, "Why?"

Warriors

"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the Moss Stone for a clan meeting!" Jaystar yowled happily. "Today, we have a new cat joining us; Pineheart!" He nodded the she-cat before turning back to the clan. "Also, Clovermoon found the apprentices! And I think, now that they are back, they deserve their warrior names, along with Swiftpaw siblings."
"I, Jaystar, leader of MossClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on these apprentices. They have trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as warriors in their turns.
"Icepaw, Pouncepaw, Swiftpaw, Crowpaw, Hollypaw, Vinepaw, and Blazepaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, to defend and protect your clan, even at the cost of your life?"
"I do." Icepaw meowed quietly.
"I do!" Pouncepaw exclaimed.
"I do." Swiftpaw mewed.
"I do." Crowpaw nodded his head excitedly.
"I do." Hollypaw squeaked, her eyes wide.
"I do." Vinepaw breathed.
"I do." Blazepaw meowed boldly.
"Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you you your warrior names. Icepaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Icewing. StarClan honors your agility and courage.
"Pouncepaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Pounceheart. StarClan honors your kindness and patience.
"Swiftpaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Swiftclaw. StarClan honors your friendliness and skill.

"Crowpaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Crowtail. StarClan honors your strength and how observant you are.

"Hollypaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Hollyfeather. StarClan honors your cleverness and quick mind.

"Vinepaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Vinesong. StarClan honors your lovingness and positive thinking.

"Blazepaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Blazestone. StarClan honors your crazy personality and energy.

"We welcome all of you as warriors of MosClan!"
