New Joiners!

Fellstar leaped onto the _____________ , he did not need his sight to help him, he knew where everything was in his territory, walking through the vast pine forest was easy for him, his lack of sight was nothing more than a slight annoyance at times. With pride an confidence he called the clan meeting

"All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather at the __________ for a clan meeting!"

He heard rustling and smelt the three other cats of his clan gather. He smiled, remembering the days when JayClan had been full of life and from the smiling, playful kits to the oldest elders. But he couldn't dwell in the past, he needed to lead his clan now, and make it better than it ever was before. They were moving there, slowly, but surely.

"We have four new joiners! Please Welcome Leafdew, Starlingwings, Risinglark and Eaglefoot to JayClan! Starlingwings is expecting kits so JayClan will soon have new life. Also, Leafdew has offered to be our Medicine Cat, and we except, this is the most dangerous time for us and we need all the help we can get, Leafdew will be an exceptional medicine cat!"

Fellstar was about to leap off the ___________ when there was a sudden commotion. He could not see past the thick layer of black that had been all he could see since he was a kit, but he smelt blood, and that smell could never be good. He leapt off the ______________ and padded toward the source of the smell. Soon, he realized it was another cat, he towered over the cat, so it couldn't have been older than six moons. "How old are you?" he asked in an urgent voice

"S-seven moons." a timid, she-cat voice replied

"Who are you?" he asked, gentler this time.

"I-i am Bay." she replied, a little bolder this time.

"Well, what happened to you Bay?" Fellstar asked

"I-I was with my father when he froze, he was really scared. I didn't know why, so I asked him, he told me to run. Then there was this big ginger thing and I ran. I fell alot and got a lot of cuts," Bay said, her voice almost at a sob

"I-i should have saved dad, from that ginger thing. Now he's dead! H-he told me not to look back, but I did, he was lying there, all still, and the ginger thing, i-it dragged him away!"

Fellstar could tell she was crying now, but he needed her to answer "Was this ginger thing near here?"

"N-no. I ran, I long way." Bay cried, sniffling.

"It's okay Bay. It really is, your father still loves you and he was saving you when he died, he was a brave cat. Would you like to stay here, with me and my clan?"

"Y-your a clan cat?" Bay sniffed "My dad told me about you cats, he said you are like one big family. We were looking for a clan t-to join when..." she broke off into sobs again

Fellstar nodded "It's ok Bay, you can stay here. You'll be Baypaw, is that ok with you?"

Bay nodded "I'd love that."

So Fellstar leapt onto the __________ again

"We also have one more joiner. Bay, until you recieve your warrior name, you will be known as Baypaw! Wandernight, you are my deputy, and I trust you to teach Baypaw the ways of the warrior code,"

He waited until he heard all cats sitting down again and given Baypaw and Wandernight enough time to touch noses "Meeting Dismissed."

He leapt off the __________ and padded over to Baypaw, "Come on, Leafdew will fix you up." he took her over to the new medicine cat and smiled "Your newest patient, please take good care of her."

With that, he lefy Baypaw with Leafdew and picked a thrush out of the fresh kill pile and sat in the leader's den, wondering what was in store for JayClan....
