Warriors Secrets of Shadows: Alpha and Omega

Chapter 16

The cats returned to their respected territories and camps. Some cats of WolfClan and ViperClan looked up what they were doing.
"Minnowwhisker!" Fallentooth meowed relived.
"Rainfrost!" Onestar bounded forward as the two greeted their daughters.
"We couldn't find Brightstripe in the reaches of the territories or across the Thunderpath." Feralstorm meowed to his leader. "You will have another chance to find her, but now we're just glad you're back.." The white and ginger tom meowed.
"Sedgeclaw, you're alright." Whitestar purred as she came to greet her son with a lick. "Yes mother. I am fine." He mewed.
Ryenose twined her tail with his purring.
"Have any attacks from the wolves occurred during our absence?" Dawnreed asked Whitestar.
Whitestar shook her head. "No."
"Good." She mewed nodding her head. "Where did Brightstripe go?" The white furred leader asked.
"We've been trying to figure that out. Even Eagle was no help.." Badgerpaw rumbled.
"That reminds me in honor of your efforts," Onestar meowed and bounded up the Snake Rock beside Whitestar. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey in groups, gather for a clan meeting!" His voice rang loud and clear.
All of the cats turned their heads to them. "I have decided that Smallpaw, Badgerpaw, Elmpaw, and Sorrelpaw are ready to receive their warrior names!" Onestar yowled.
Cats yowled in agreement to his statement.
"Badgerpaw, Sorrelpaw, Elmpaw, and Smallpaw? Do you promise to be brave and loyal to your clan? To protect each cat even at the cost of your own lives?" He asked.
"I do!" They all shouted at once. They all turned and looked at each other. "Jinx! Jinx again!"
He chuckled. "Badgepaw, Sorrelpaw, Elmpaw, and Smallpaw, from this moment on, you shall be known as Badgerstalk, Sorrelheart, Elmpoppy, and Smallstep. StarClan honors you all." He meowed.
"Badgerstalk! Sorrelheart! Elmpoppy! Smallstep!" The clan cheered. The cats chests puff with pride.
Mudpaw looked down at her paws. She was a medicine cat apprentice, she had at least three or more sunrises until she earned her name.
"This meeting as at an end." The white and ginger tom meowed as the cheering died down.
The cats all disbanded and were with each other or were doing their own things.

Badgerstalk padded up to Feralstorm. "Um, Uncle Feralstorm?" He mewed.
"Yes Badgerstalk?" The Deputy asked the younger warrior.
"Nevermind." He mewed.
"What is it?" The tan tabby tom asked. "We have to find Brightstripe again.. I saw Silverwinf when Leafpelt escorted her and Skyfoot back to their camp," he pointed out. "She looked so sad.." At that he began to frown.
"We will find her." The tom vowed. "When?" The black and white warrior asked.
The deputy looked around. "Come closer."
He did as he was told.
"We are sending a patrol tonight. A secret patrol." He whispered. His eyes began to gleam.
"Do not. I repeat do not tell Silverwing!" Feralstorm whispered. "Of course I wouldn't." He promised. "Good. Now run along. And remember. It's a secret." The deputy mewed.
"Right." Badgerstalk meowed nodding his head.
Feralstorm smiled. "You're a good warrior." He mewed and walked away. The tom licked his chest briefly and purred.
