Book 8 - Chapter 5

The patrol came racing back to camp one day with lots of information. "We found 3⃣ more pieces of prey but this time there was a pile of berries next to each of them and in the dirt there was a star ⭐️." Said Seedwhisker. "Berries and stars,  berries and stars." Muttered Birchtail.  Isn't this cat from Fishclan?" asked Ashstorm. "Couldn't this message be about the name of the cat? The clan name?" asked Foxpaw. Sparrowstar who had come out to the birch tree looked down and nodded, "If this cat was from Fishclan and it is smart enough to have stayed alive then it could be hinting to us it's clan name." The clan cats looked between each other before Dragonwhisker realized something, "Was this star ⭐️ after the berry?" he asked. Seedwhisker looked at him in bewilderment but nodded. 'Then it would have to be a leader, only leaders are permitted to have the name star ⭐️ at the end at least." "I've got it," Darkflower said suddenly. "I know who it is too," chimed in Sagewind and Appledawn. Whiteclaw looked up startled, for he too realized who the clan had been talking about. Whiteclaw was not born in Fishclan. He haas been born among Darkfinch's cats and he had been a loyal warrior to his service until Darkfinch told him he was to become the deputy of Fishclan. Fishclan didn't trust Whiteclaw, for they thought that he was still loyal to Darkfinch and was betraying Fishclan in that process. Whiteclaw had been blamed many times while he lived in Fishclan, but the last accusation was the worst and the cats had just brought it back. Many cats were to think that Whiteclaw was to blame again, for Whiteclaw not long ago had been held blameful for the disappearance of the former leader, Berrystar.
