Book 1 - Chapter 5

Waterclan and the other cats staggered into the Fishclan camp. "I have news," said Oceanstar. "Greenwhisker never had permission to tell you that you could stay with us. You can stay but Greenwhisker is no longer the senior warrior of Fishclan." The cats began mewing about each other. "I must choose another senior warrior to replace Greenwhisker." I say..." Oceanstar was interrupted when Milkfur of Waterclan let out a hiss. "What it is Milkfur?" called Cinderstar. "Eagle!" yowled Milkfur. The eagle plunged into the camp in dove towards Mintkit. "Mintkit" screeched Darkflower. "Look out!" Mintkit turned and ran towards Silverfrost. The Eagle swooped down and snatched Mintkit. Oceanstar leapt from his perch and the Eagle let go of Mintkit. The eagle shook off Oceanstar who fell and hit the ground with a thud. The eagle gave a screech and took to the sky. "Oceanstar?" "Oceanstar lost his last life," cried Shadowleaf. Emberberry leapt up from his spot with the other medicine cats.  "You are our leader now Tigerstripe." Tigerstripe nodded. "Tonight I will go to the Sparkle Tree tonight to earn my Leader name. First I need a deputy. Originally it should of been Greenwhisker but Oceanstar made Greenwhisker a normal warrior right before he died so I need a different deputy. Berryfur will you be my deputy?" Berryfur nodded. "Now I also need to  appoint a Senior warrior. Cedarfur will you be the senior warrior?" "Yes Tigerstripe." "Emberberry we must go to the Sparkle tree at once." Emberberry nodded. "Let us go." Emberberry and Tigerstripe raced out of the camp.  The next day they returned. "Let all cats old enough to climb a tree join underneath the birch tree for a clan meeting. Dawnstar, Redstar Cinderstar I have an idea that might benefit all the clans. We join together to make one big can. There would be 1 leader. 1 Deputy. 1 senior warrior and everybody else was whatever they were before. What do you think?"
