Crowheart and Hazelfur nodded at the same time as if they shared the deputy position andherded Stormclan out, Orangepaw, Dreampaw, Brightleaf... and the rest.

Jadewhisper arrived in camp, stopping briefly to stare up at the full moon, clear in the sky. She sighed and went into the nursery. "Wake up my kits." she said softly in a motherly tone.

Dogkit stretched. "What is it mama? Are you and Foxtail okay?" he said in a yawn.

"Dogkit was telling Spoolkit depressing stories about you all dying," reported Heartkit. "I was scared a bit, but I knew you were good like that, so you'd be okay.

Jadewhisper looked down, fighting back tears. "Say your good-byes to Dogkit and Ravenkit." she said softly.

Dogkit was stunned. "Wha? Where am I going?" he stuttered, half hoping for something that would be fun, like a special first hunt, or exclusive training. But the pit of his mind, told him he was dead wrong...

Bloodstar sighed. "Well, I suppose now is the time for the Gathering right? How are things faring in Stormclan? Did you choose a deputy to replace Frostwing yet?"

Jadewhisper felt that Spoolkit was over-reacting, she had to toughen up eventually. "They are going to Stormclan." she said sternly.

Foxtail walked into the nursery and licked Spoolkit. "It's okay, none of them are actually leaving." he said softly. "I promise." he said softly, cradling Spoolkit, Heartkit right next to her between his paws.

Dogkit was speechless. He padded over to where his sisters huddled against Foxtail. How could he be given up like a piece of prey? He was the only male in the litter!

"What's happening, Mama?" Ravenkit asked, curiosity getting to his head. "Where are we going? I don't wanna leave Heartkit or Spoolkit!" He whined. LATE POST

Nightstra looked up, then nodded. "I chose Crowheart to be deputy. Though Hazelfur was a close second." She wanted to talk to someone right now, just about trying to deal with StormClan. The Clan was growing WAY too big, and apprentices and kits were coming by the second. StormCLan was low on warriors, and Sparkfire would soon need an apprentice. "So how are things in DarkClan? Going well?"
