Sparkling Falls

This is where the clan can relax, swim, and feel the mist on their fur

It is time......

*Birdstar rose from her den her green eyes fixed on the dawn sky. It was a beautiful morning. The sky, pink shot with gold and the clouds were cotton wisps as fine as rabbits fur. The warriors emerged from the dens their eyes shining. As they moved their muscles ripped under their thick glossy pelts and Birdstar turned her eyes upon them her fur glittering in the sun.* It is time..... *and so they set off to the Herb Meadow their minds fixed on one thought... What is going to happen to us?*

*The cats reached the meadow their eyes pealed for the presence of the badgers and the puma. Suddenly, Birdstar stopped in her tracks her green gaze focused on the clearing.* There they are... *The badgers and the puma were standing guard over their den watching for any disturbance...* Now when I give the word attack them from all sides. Willowmoon lead Beewing, Muffinfur, Brightflower, Stoneclaw, and Emberbreeze to attack to attack from the right... Pantherpelt lead Sundapple, Willowfeather, Thunderstorm, and Sparrowflight to attack from left. Greymoon lead Thrushwing, Bassleap, and Firestorm to attack the front. *The cats nod and disappear in to the tall emerald green grass. Birdstar turns her eyes onto the expectant looking apprentices*. Now we will attack from the back remember to stay quiet *Birdstar leads the apprentices around the back of the clearing. Their paws stepping quietly through the brush. As they approach the back of the clearing she turns to the apprentices*. Ok when I yowl attack I want you to use all the methods you learned in training. *Birdstar turns her elegant head towards the early morning sky and give a thunderous yowl*. Attack!!!

*The warriors charge out of their hiding places throwing themselves upon the badgers and the puma fighting for their lives and clan. Fighting for the code they knew since kit hood....*

To be continued......

Pumas, Apprentice, and Stormclan

All cats old enough to catch their own prey meet below Fernrock for a clan meeting *the cats gather*! I have received intelligence that pumas have joined the badgers' forces *gasps fill the clearing*. "What are we going to do Birdstar?" *Freezepool mews*. Well from what I have gathered the female puma is expecting so if we drive off the male the female will follow for the sake of her kittens. "Is that an advantage I smell"? *Pantherpelt mews smugly*. Yes I believe so...

On a lighter note *Birdstar brightens* we have an apprentice ceremony in order *Hawkkit quivers with excitement*!

Yes I..... *Littlespots a Stormclan cat charges into the camp* "Birdstar Stormclan is being attacked we need help!" We will be right there Littlespots! Come Firestorm, Mudblossom, Pantherpelt, Sundapple, Willowfeather, Willowmoon, Mistpaw, and Moonpaw come with me to Stormclan Fernsong watch my kits! "But mommy why can't we come!" *Cherrykit mews".

"But Birdstar you said badgers you mean.... there's MORE"?? *Sundapple mews*. Yes Sundapple according to Willowmoon and her kits two more came over the hill close to the Herb Meadow... At the medicine cat den Willowmoon went in to a trance she said something like... darkness to come and well I think it means the badgers... and well. *Birdstar's voice grows strong again with renewed vigor at the thought of protecting the clan she held close to her heart*. We must fight! Every one must be prepared!! Ok... groups Willowmoon I need you to hold a training session for the apprentices they need to refresh their battle training! You can ask someone to assist you choose anyone you like! Ok warriors and queens.... you guys prepare the camp strengthen the dens and the camp walls.

I'm Back, Gathering, and Prophecies

All cats old enough to catch their own prey meet below Fernrock for a clan meeting *all the cats gather*! I have  called you for a number of reasons... First of all I want to announce my return, so I can start adding people. I also need Firestorm, Graypool, Muffinfur, Sunpaw, Stoneclaw, Pantherpaw, Mudblossom, Willowpaw, and Beewing to come to the gathering. We may not have a symbol yet, but we'll post comments on Leafclan symbol I'm going to ask Songstar for premission. Last I have some prophecies:

Fern Cinder and Creek will rise with Rock in their wake and become close in Starclan's eyes

Creek, Cinder,Fern, Splash, and Lynx must work together or all of them will be banned from the forest forever. They will be called, the five.

There will be kits of the leaders of Creek, Cinder, and Fern and they must work together as one with their kits to rise up and avoid destruction to fulfill an earlier prophecy; to rise up and become very close to their warrior ancestors...

I will consult Fernsong and Sandpaw after the gathering.
