The New Light of Hope: Books I to VI.

Chapter XI: Ideas.

StormShadow:

Date: June 11, 2020.

We met up in the same spot as usual to discuss more about the recent activity regarding Aurora, DawnHeart, Amethyst, CrystalHeart, Sadie and CreamFur reporting that they were given unnatural abilities when they were fighting off the rogues and members of the Diablos and then disappeared not long afterward. "This happened to us just last night and it's only a matter of time before all of us are exposed to what powers we have been chosen to represent for this generation." Sadie went on to explain. "We need to keep things like this in mind whenever they happen."

Aurora: "You are right about that, Sadie."

Milly: "What do you suggest we do besides the plan Bella had suggested the other day?"

Sadie: "Well, now that you have mentioned it, I was thinking of, rather than hold Division meeting every so often during a specific phase of the moon, the Division hold meetings once every week to share important news about what is going on in the forest as a whole to inform everyone on what's currently going on and what we need to keep in mind; however, in the case something serious occurs that cannot wait until the next week, an emergency meeting will be held immediately to inform everyone about the situation."

Summer: "You know, I agree with Sadie on this one. Because why should we wait for the a first or third quarter moon to hold a meeting to announce what's going on in the forest when we can do it weekly so that way everyone will know what's going on and what we need to be weary of? If we waited until the moon was half full or empty, then it'd already be too late to let everyone know what's happened because we all know that when something happens in another Divison, no one knows the definition of 'Mind your own business.'!"

StoneFoot: "They have a good point, you know; if we waited until the next half moon to occur to annouce, then it would already be too late."

Aurora: "All of that if true and a good enough reason to change some old traditions around just for the sake of the forest and its safety. You know what? Yeah! Let's go with this change! All in favor, say 'I'! I!"

Summer: "I!"

Amethyst: "I!"

Jemma: "I!"

Bellatrix: "I!"

StoneFoot: "I!"

Everyone (in unison): "I!"

Aurora: "Then it's settled, we will make this change to the forest and put into full effect as of today."

Abigail: "And animals like ScarFace will go along with this change whether they like it or not!"

Summer: "All right, Abigail, let's not get too riled up about this."

Jemma: "Does anyone else have any ideas?"

Aurora: "As a matter of fact, I have one. In terms of safety in the forest, I think it'd be best if for the mothers if there are any in the nursery who are currently caring for young or have yet to have them to protect the nursery and the future of the Divison from any rogue who dares to enter and try to kill them. Though what we know as of now is that this group of rogues namely target females who are adults or elders and kill them, but it might not be long before they decide to target younger females as well, such as young who are still in the nursery or even apprentices at best; think about it, you guys! They might target them the young female offspring and apprentices before they even have a chance to live the life that they choose to live or even one of the pregnant mothers who have yet to give birth to their young and care for them and experience what it's like to be a mother or even one of the mothers who have recently had their offspring or are currently caring for them and would have to live through the pain in the afterlife of watching their young grow up without a mother. The future of those young animals depend on every single one of us! And not just us alone, but the rest of the Division as well! Which is why any mother in the nursery in the nursery who has yet to, or had recently given birth or currently nursing or caring for their offspring to stay alert incase an intruder were to come in and try to kill one of the mothers or one of the young female offspring within the nursery itself."

StormShadow: "Well, that one makes sense because it could be a matter of time before they begin to target a younger group of females who have yet to make contributions to their Divisions."

BirchTail: "I agree with my brother and he's right; it would make sense for the mothers to protect not only themselves but the young as well. But it shouldn't be just them, though, but the rest of the Division to help them out as well."

Amethyst: "Agreed. I say that we put this plan into effect."

Summer: "Agreed."

Bellatrix: "Same."

Aurora: "All right then."

Amethyst: "Does anyone else have any ideas or plans?"

Abigail: "I have one!"

Amethyst: "All right, Abby, let's hear it. Just... please don't make it anything violent that can lead to someone getting killed."

Abigail: "It's not, I promise."

And the rest of the meeting was spent sharing ideas and plans to keep the forest safe from the Diablos and from the unknown group of rogues. Though, this was only the beginning of something that would last for over two months until someone we all put a stop to it at once.
