Shadowkit always knew that he was different,not by his fur nor eye color,but by his parents being from different clans. His mother, Silverdawn, was a she-cat from Thunderclan while his father, Blackclaw, was from Shadowclan. His mother always taught...
"From this day on,you will be known as Shadowstripe.Through your courage and loyalty,we welcome you as a full warrior of Shadpwclan!" Moonstar's voice rang out.Her white pelt shimmered in the moonlight and her soft blue eyes looked down at the newly named warrior in the middle of the clearing. Shadowstripe's name was called throughout the camp in a chant as Moonstar went over to the silver furred warrior and Shadowstripe stepped forward and licked his leader's shoulder in respect before stepping back.
"I am so proud of you Shadowstripe.Though you may have come from a different Clan,you have proved your loyalty to Shadowclan and shown others how they were wrong to judge you." Moonstar meowed out as Shadowstripe dipped his head."Please Moonstar,it is the least I can do for someone who took me and my mother in when we were cast out of Thunderclan," His demeanor changed as he spoke about his mother and he looked down sadly."You miss her,don't you?" All Shadowstripe could do was nod as he seemed to not find his voice. Moonstar frowned as she used her tail to pick Shadowstripe's head up for him to look at her,"Do not fret young one.Your mother would be proud of the warrior you have become." Shadowstripe's mother,Silverdawn,had died to Whitecough a couple of moons ago,during the time of Leaf-bare when the plants have wilted.
"Let me go!"A new voice rang out in the clearing and a cat with a torn eye and rose with feathers behind his ear yowled out

Moonstar turned and commanded,"Release him at once!" The two warriors, Redwing and Riverwalk, released the rouge and Redwing spoke,"We found this rouge wandering in our territory Moonstar." The rouge hissed at Redwing and Riverwalk,"Put your filthy paws on me again and I'll make sure you don't use them again!" Moonstar lashed her tail in irritation,"Enough! Now,who are you?" The rouge looked at the Shadowclan leader with his one eye."They call me Poison Badger,and I only came to this Clan because I heard rumors that my friend from when I was a kit was here. He suddenly disappeared one day and I never saw him again." Shadowstripe padded out from behind Moonstar and looked at him,not believing it,"P-Poisonkit?" He said,unsure it was really him. The rouge,now named Poison Badger,turned to look at Shadowstripe,"I guess the rumors were true.How are you old friend?"
Shadowstripe stepped forward so he was facing Poison Badger ,"What happened to you?" Poison Badger chuckled as he flatten his still working ears,"Things are different back in Thunderclan. It isn't the same since you had left." He had turned to look at Moonstar,"I was cast out of my Clan and wish to join yours.Though I may be a rouge now,I know a great deal about Thunderclan that will benefit this Clan."
Moonstar looked into Poison Badger's eye and smiled,"Very well.Welcome to Shadowclan, Poison Badger. If you wish for a new name,then that will be arranged." Poison Badger stepped forward,"I wish to keep my name Moonstar.It's a reminder of the betrayal of those I once called friends." The Shadowclan leader nodded and turned to face her Clan," Poison Badger will be made a full warrior of Shadowclan.Treat him the same as those beside you.With that being said,the meeting is adjourned." And with a flick of her tail,Moonstar disappeared back into her den.
