[center] Fernstar's attention was ripped away from her prey and her eyes widened in surprise as she gazed at the medicine cat. She had always wondered whether the beautiful cats with the stars in their pelts were real or just stories told by elders. Were these the cats of StarClan? Her mind raced for a few heartbeats at the thought of StarClan cats appearing to Blackpelt. This meant that WillowClan was being recognized as a proper and honorable Clan, following the Warrior Code and honoring their ancestors. Suddenly, a wave of heavy responsibility came over her; this also meant something of vital importance to Fernstar. [color=3CB371][i] If the cats of StarClan want to speak with ME, this must mean. . . my nine lives ceremony! [/i][/color]  The thought of having her official nine lives ceremony in the presence of legendary cats such as Firestar, Bluestar, Yellowfang and Cinderheart, made her stomach lurch with nervousness as well as excitement. What a privilege to be granted as leader! Snapping out of her thoughts, she realized that Blackpelt was staring at her with a look of slight concern. [color=3CB371][b] "Hawkpaw is as enthusiastic as ever!" [/b][/color] she said with a mrrow of laughter. [color=3CB371][b] "Cinderpaw is out marking borders with Stormheart and Brambletail and Moosepaw is on a hunting patrol with Duskwing, Sunfur and Spidernose. Although, I haven't seen Silverpaw at all today. I need help repadding the dens today; the night wind would make any cat chill to their bones. I hope he's safe wherever he wandered off to."

[center] Pushing the last bite of the starling closer to Blackpelt, she flicked her tail in thought before asking, [color=3CB371][b] "Do you remember what these cats looked like? How many of them were there? Did you recognize any of them?" [/b][/color] She realized she was asking a lot of questions, but they were important nonetheless. She then realized that if the cats of StarClan wanted to speak with her, it meant that she would be making the journey to the Moonpool, wherever it was, with Blackpelt leading the way. Preparations would need to be made and Brambletail would need to take charge over sending patrols and camp duties. She was confident he would be capable of those things. Brambletail was strong and intelligent cat and he had never let her down before. Fernstar sat with her tail wrapped around her paws adn waited eagerly for the medicine cat's response. [/center]
