BATTLE

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

When she arrived back in camp Silverstar saw that th mood was sad, she could easily tell. Fromt he center of a group of cats she heard someone sobbing and she easily made her way through them. There in the center of the cats was the body of Iceclaw. There was no life left in his body and his youn daughte, who'd recently lost her mother wa sweping over him.

Minnowfur padded out of her den and shewed the other cats away. Suddonly she jerked up and yowled in shock.

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

"What's happened?" Silverstar asked.

Rainpaw looked up when she heard the voice of Silverstar.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

"Blackcough..." She hissed. "He's been hiding the fact that he was sick. It was nlackcough that killed him... not a cat..,"

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

"I don't want any of the healthy cats going near the cats with greencough if it is going as far as blackcough," Silvrstar said.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

Minnowfur hissed. "StarClan save us..." Minnowfur gazed at the dead warrior sadly.

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

Silverstar mewed solemnly. "We will mourn for Iceclaw tonight."

Rainpaw turned around and dug her muzzle into her father's fur and let her tears fall.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

Minnowfur sighed sadly and began to treat wounds.

Spiderstar froze. "No. Wait. I have one last peice of buissness. Moltenpaw, step forward."

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

Moltenpaw was curious, but did as he was told.

SIlverstar sa by Iceclaw's body with Rainpaw.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

Spiderstar rasied her head. "I, Spiderstar, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down on this apprentice. He has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble code, and I commend him to you as a warrior in his turn. Moltenpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code and protect and defend this Clan, even at the cost of your life?"

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

"I do," Moltenpaw mewed. He was so excited that he was becoming a warrior.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

Spiderstar nodded. "Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. Moltenpaw, from this moment you will be known as Moltenheart. StarClan honors your bravery and your patience, and we welcome you as a full warrior of [ShadowClan."
Spiderstar rest her muzzle on the top of the new warrior's head.

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

Moltenheart licked his leader's shoulder.

"Moltenheart!" Scarface began chanting his name.

[~♥Willowpelt♥~]

Greentail and Fireflower joined in.

Lizardpaw padded up to Moltenheart. "Congrats!" She purred.

Lionroar nodded in approval.

[*♥Snowblizzard♥*]

Moltenheart nodded his thanks to Lizardpaw.
