"Morningdawn?!" Firefly's heart shattered. It was terrible. His friend probably didn't have a clue of what he was feeling ever since they met again for the first time. But looking at the smaller golden tom..Firefly wasn't sure what he should think about the whole situation. The cat did look very good and immediately caught Firefly's eye. "Oh what did I miss out on?" the tom next to Morningdawn asked. "You're standing in front of the leader of the offical Fire Clan. I never thought I would meet two so good looking cats in one place..." Morningdawn's mind got stuck with Fire Clan: "Fire Clan? Soot Clan isn't even independent, but you get to have an offical clan before us?"
"Me and Greenstar are best friends. He of course would let me have this clan. Afterall, two clans are stronger than one." Morningdawn was stunned."Fire Clan.." the golden cat repeated. "Let me introduce myself : I am Goldfeather, and I assume you already know this handsome fella?" "I, FIrestar, know this cat ever since we were children." FIrestar's heart was still jumping. He couldn't tell if it was true love, but he wanted to be with them both. "Firestar.." Goldfeather stepped closer, "How about I join your clan, as your fiancé?" The golden tom looked back at Morningdawn : "Or even better..you'll have us both join, and we'll be a trio of fiancés."
Firestar wasn't gonna decline that offer, afterall only clan members were his parents and him at this time. "Alright.. follow me.." he purred. Morningdawn knew it was wrong. Wrong to just betray his clan like that. The clan that gave him shelter on a though day. "I'll follow your scent Firestar, you guys go ahead."
He dissapeared in the bushes. Lavenderwillow and Racoonbounce were still searching, and not very lucky. "Lavenderwillow..." Morningdawn meowed. "Oh there you are! We were worried.." she smiled and came close to him, but when she was about to greet him with a nose-to-nose kiss, he backed off. Lavenderwillow's eyes widened. "Lavenderwillow, I fell in love." he said. The white she-cat sat down: "Who is it, you fell in love with?" "Firestar."
Racoonbounce's eyes narrowed, his ears laid back, he started hissing : "Firefly?!" Morningdawn nodded. "He has his own clan now.. the Fire Clan."
Racoonbounce had pure disgust on his face. He looked like as if he was about to call Morningdawn a traitor, but his eyes managed to make it look like a cry of help. And Morningdawn knew why : Sootstar.
"I trusted you, Morningdawn. And I trusted you when I told you about Hunter Clan. But I should've known better. Who can judge you anyways. Sure it must be awesome, knowning that the cat you love so much has his own clan. But don't you dare ever forget what we've done for you.." Racoonbounce had a small tear roll down his fuzzy fur. Morningdawn lowered his head in gratefulness, and before Lavenderwillow could add something to the conversation, the grey tom vanished again. "This isn't going as planned...we should've found cats to join our clan, not leave it."
They both sighed, they were tired and Sootstar would definitely be angry. 
"It's all your fault!" Sootstar shouted. They returned to the clan in fear and rightly so. They got shouted at for such a stupid idea, and for making Morningdawn leave Soot Clan. And even more, Sootstar was angered by Fire Clan being indepenedent before them. And Sootstar went on about their mistakes, until noises came from outside the camp. Sootstar turned his head. Did someone from Fire Clan follow them? Or even worse : Hunter Clan?
Sootstar sent Racoonbounce outside to investigate,the warrior didn't see it as a punishment but Racoonbounce was still hurt. He was doing better but wouldn't win a fight. "Hello?" a lean grey cat sat there right beside the entrance. "Oh I was gonna wait till tomorrow and then ask if I can join. I heard you were searching for cats to join the clan." Racoonbounce was confused. This cat seemed fearless and wasn't intimidated by the taller Racoonbounce at all. "I'm Jayscar." the grey tom smiled happily. "Nice to meet you Jayscar. I am Racoonbounce." he invited the loner inside and Sootstar's face lit up in joy. "A new member?" his voice was soothing, yet Racoonbounce knew that not even a minute ago, his brother admonished him for their stupid ideas. "Right here.." Jayscar smiled. He was very skinny and in some places, his fur was missing. 
Lavenderwillow had faith. Her eyes were glowing and she greeted Jayscar with a nose-to-nose kiss. The smaller grey cat felt welcomed. And to that, they had enough dens for each member.
"However Jayscar, you will have to go hunting with a few other warriors in the morning, prey is getting less. And we won't survive this if we don't gather food." The grey tom smiled at his new leader and followed Lavenderwillow into his own den.
As the night made its way over the big forest, Morningdawn arrived at the entrance to a small cave. The hole was so small, he was barely able to fit through. On the other side, was a smaller waterfall and a few dens, all protected by a circle of fern. It was pure paradise. "Morningdawn!" Firestar greeted his fiancé with gently rubbing his face on the taller ones shoulder. Goldfeather rushed up to both of them and smiled. "What do you think?" the golden tom asked. Morningdawn's eyes wandered to the waterfall. "It is beautiful." 
A fuzzy small cat, whos fur was glued with blood stepped up to them, he was injured. "Oh, this is Morningdawn, am I right? Nice to meet you, I am Beetlewing. Medicine cat of Fire Clan!"
Goldfeather came closer to Morningdawn and whispered : "Firestar told me he found him in this river, about to die. The river would turn red around him each time he moved."
The grey tom gasped. "This small brown ball of fur was grateful for still being able to live." Goldfeather continued. His words were numb and full of bliss.
"Firestar," Goldfeather turned his head in the direction of the entrance, "I will come back soon. Why don't you introduce Morningdawn to Diamondbreeze and Shadowflame?"
