Book 1 - Chapter 2

"Well?" "Please Oceanstar we were still recovering from green cough when the cats attacked. Half of my clan couldn't fight back." "Alright." meowed Oceanstar. "Just until you are better though." "Thank you Oceanstar." Hollowstripe mewed respectfully. "Cedarfur, Berryfur, Birchtail and Shadowleaf go with them and see if they need help. Hollowstripe go with them." Mossclan arrives. "Redstar," said Oceanstar with a dip of his head. "Let all the cats old enough to climb a tree join here beneath birch tree for a clan meeting." All the cats padded over."Now," began Oceanstar, "Mossclan has come to stay with us for a while. But since this is our territory you will have to obey what we say. If we tell you to stay in camp will you do that Mossclan?" "Repeat after me," said Redstar to his cats. "Yes Oceanstar we understand that we are on your territory and will do exactly what you want us to do." The cats repeated it. Oceanstar continued. "Now since there are twice as many cats as normal I need the Mossclan cats to participate in patrols." The Mossclan cats nodded. "Now Tigerstripe please organize the patrols." Tigetrstripe started organizing patrols. "Birchtail and Berryfur take Cloudpaw and Seedpaw hunting. Emberberry you can collect herbs but please tell me first. Redstar please go talk to Oceanstar. Cedarfur and Aspenwish take Ashpaw and patrol the Riverclan boundary. Shadowleaf and Sandswish take Nightpaw and even though the Mossclan cats are in our camp we still need to patrol their boundary. Morningflower I know that Emberberry wanted to see you. Littlepaw are you a warrior apprentice or medicine cat?" "Medicine Cat." "Then go with Morningflower too. Mumblefur the elders den is the hollow log over there. Darkflower can you take Echomist to the nursery. Mistkit you can show Rowankit around the camp." Tigerstripe was still speaking when Troutsplash the Riverclan senior warrior burst into the camp.
