Peakclan's Hope

The hunt begins

It's been a moon already but no cat could find the savage mountain lion. Falcontail began training a apprentice, Longpaw, early in case Falcontail couldn't forefill his duties because of his crippled shoulder.  Lionfoot laid on her favorite sunning boulder napping while Boulderfur had gone out to hunt.  She was still recovering from the shock of the bloody death. "Hey Lionfoot, " Mousepaw said joining her.  Lionfoot yawned " Hey,  Mousepaw.  What is it?" Mousepaw squeaked" Falcontail wants to see you!" Lionfoot stood and walked  into the medicine cat's den. Falcontail was laying in a feathery moss nest,  his injury was healed but could still come undone if bumped. " Longpaw,  the orange flower is marigold.  It helps with infections....  Oh hey Lionfoot, " He mewed tiredly.  Lionfoot asked" You wanted to see me?" Falcontail's amber eyes fell on her as he said" Yes...  I spoke to Cragstar...  He is making me a warrior once I train this apprentice. I don't want to be late if a warrior gets hurt and I'm not able to get there on time...  I rather be the one hurt than to be late..." She stared at him amazed. He had always been the kind of cat who keeps to himself.  He would normally just stay quiet and says his natural born wisdom at times. She nods slightly,  and muzzles his cheek. She brought him a mouse  to eat than went to go rest.  " Well...  I guess things may be more different than I thought. "

Longpaw crept alone to the cave of Moonclan.  He jumped at every sound,  every breeze,  or every movement.  He crawled into the tunnel of which Moonclan is connected to Peakclan. He crawled into a open area with sweet calming scents of the flowers nearby.  He gazed into the water as the moon light made it seem to glow.  He stepped in and stepped into what seems to be a pond near a large rock. Cherry blossom trees that grew around the rock which made the air smell sweet.  On the rock and around it laid the spirits.  Two cats padded up to him,  A long furred gray tom and a silver blue she-cat.  " Greetings young Longpaw,  I am Peakstar and this is Ripplestream, my medicine cat, " The tom said,  dipping his head in respect.  Longpaw dips his head in respect also, he asked " How are things in Moonclan? " Ripplestream purred " All is well. Longpaw we have major things to speak of,  come. Your coming to a rare meeting among life and death medicine cats of all skies. " His eyes widen at the words,  not knowing what to say.  She twitches her tail to tell him to follow so he follows.  "So what is this about exactly?" He asked as they jumped on rocks in the stream to get across.
" Cats of all clans believe in us in their own way.  Peakclan believes in Moonclan. Thunderclan,  Shadowclan, Windclan, Skyclan,  and Riverclan believes in Starclan. A distant mountain tribe believes in us also but considers us in a name to long to mention.  When a trouble among medicine cats,  we call the closes clan to help.  Your clan is in trouble so we called this rare meeting to discuss it." His heart raced as he heard the words that his clan was in trouble.  He knew this was only way he could find help for his clan's unknown trouble. They approached a field of grass which had many cats but they all smell of herbs.
" Ripplestream!  Long time no see!" A gray she-cat called to her.  " Hello Cinderpelt. I see you brought your apprentice,  Leafpool," She purred,  nodding to a brown and white she-cat.  Longpaw gazed down feeling awkward.  A gray tom who joined beside Leafpool asked" Hello I am Jayfeather.  The current medicine cat of Thunderclan. Who may you two be? " Ripplestream dips her head and said "I am Ripplestream and this is Longsky." Longpaw stared at her.  Ripplestream whispered in his ear" You got your medicine cat name very early due to what is going to happen. I'm your new mentor and you should not trust Falcontail." Longsky glanced at his paws embarrassed.  Ripplestream purred and lead him to another medicine cat. It was a familiar white and gray tom but he couldn't remember the name.  "Hello Stormwind, nice to see you again, " she purred,  dipping her head.
LongSky widens his eyes in surprise.  Stormwind looked younger than what he had when he was killed.  Stormwind purred" Greetings Ripplestream...  Greetings LongSky. " LongSky dips his head in respect.
Stormwind glances at him and sighed" I'm so sorry for leaving my clan in such a dark manner but...  there was no mountain lion." Longsky widens his eyes. Stormwind gazed down at his paws and added" My death was caused by...  Falcontail. " Longsky stared in disbelief. Ripplestream gently licks Longsky's ear and said" what's done is done.  Stormwind go and begin the meeting." Stormwind leaps onto the rock and raises his tail to indicate silence. He began sounding calm but proud like a leader " Cats of all distant clans.  We are gather once more to discuss distant clan troubles in our unity of the ancestors and the living. Last we gather,  we discussed the uprising of the dark forest that killed many in the battle of life and death.  I mourn for your losses Starclan,  Thunderclan,  Shadowclan,  Windclan, and Riverclan. Let's take a moment of silence to honor those who had lost their lives in battle. " Everyone dipped their heads in silence.  Longsky noticed a difference between Starclan cats and Moonclan cats.  Starclan cats glowed slightly but still had their fur color visible.  Moonclan cats were slightly larger due to their past and they glowed more.  Stormwind continued after a moment " We have gathered due to a new dark force among Peakclan. A one among us medicine cats.  The one who murdered me and feasted on my insides than lied to the clan. " A she-cat with dark gray fur and amber eyes yowled angrily " That's not as bad as Brokenstar!  He murdered kits! " Stormwind fur pricked angrily and hissed" Yellowfang,  its much worse!  Unlike most clans,  our medicine cats are gifted a ability each.  I for one can tell when a cat is going to die by one glance! Now will you be quiet you feisty old cat and let me speak!" Longsky stared at Stormwind's rage to another medicine cat.  Stormwind sighed than signaled Longsky to join
