Noblestar padded out onto the High____, and sat down, curling his tail around his paws. He looked around, then turned to face forward again. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here for a Clan Meeting!" he called. He hadn't told anyone he had gone to get his name yesterday night, but he had, and Cinderstar was no longer. He had gone with Heatherpaw and Yarrowleaf, the old medicine cat. But Yarrowleaf had decided to retire and carry on with her warrior duties after he came out of his dream. So now there he stood, asking for his Clan to come and witness Heatherpaw's warrior ceremony, the unveiling of a new medicine cat, and his announcement of his new name. He waited patiently, blinking in the sunlight.
Yarrowleaf padded out of her den, which was soon to belong to someone else. She glared at Thrushtalon sternly when he tried to escape to see his brother announce leadership. "You have greencough, you better not," she warned him, and then trotted over to the High____, sitting where Noblestar was in clear view.
Heatherpaw bounded out and by scent pinpointed her mother, and slid into place next to her. She beamed up at her, today was the day of her warrior ceremony. She hadn't been made a warrior when Lunarstorm was because she was blind, she guessed.

Lunarstorm padded out of the warrior den, and went to sit beside Heatherpaw. "Hello." She purred. "Are you excited?" She curled her tail over her paws as she waited for an answer.
Emberfrost padded into the camp with Crimsoneyes, and they both placed prey in the fresh kill pile. Then they padded over to join the other cats. They sat down side by side, and looked up at Noblestar.
Cloverpaw padded out of the apprentice's den, and went to sit beside Heatherpaw, she looked back at the apprentice's den, waiting for her sister to join her.

Noblestar looked down at the cats gathered. Not enough yet, he decided, and then shuffled his paws, getting impatient.

OOC: Okie. I'm also going to pretend that Cascadepaw is here.
Noblestar decided that was enough, and nodded slightly to himself. He stepped forward a little, so all could see him. "Cats of BlazeClan. I called you here today to tell you that now my official name is Noblestar. I guess I'm you're leader now. Anyway, I have news. Yarrowleaf told me it was time for her to become an elder. She is retiring from her life as a medicine cat. Yarrowleaf, you told me you want to retire your medicine cat duties and become an elder. Are you sure this is what you want?"
Yarrowleaf nodded. "Yes, Noblestar. I am sure."
Noblestar smiled. "Then by the power of DreamClan, shall it be done. You now depend on apprentices and may not be ordered to go on patrol. You shall go as you please, but of course with supervision," he meowe, "I also have other good news..."

Emberfrost padded over to Yarrowleaf. "Congratulations on you retirement." She meowed. "You deserved it." Then she turned back to Noblestar, who had been her apprentice, to listen to the rest of the ceremony.

Tigerstorm sat close to the warrior's den his eyes alight. "Congratulations Yarrowleaf." He let his voice boom out towards the now retired med. cat. This was a good event, also reminding him that he would probably be retiring soon, since he had been an apprentice at the same time as Yarrowleaf.

OOC: I'm gonna pretend they auto-step forward. XD
Yarrowleaf smiled warmly. "Thank you," she meowed, addressing them both. She looked up to Noblestar, perking her ears at the realization her daughter Heatherpaw was soon to be a warrior. She blinked and turned her gaze to her daughter proudly.
Noblestar's smile didn't falter as he continued. "It has come to my attention there are 3 apprentices in need of warrior ceremonies. Heatherpaw, Cloverpaw, and Cascadepaw, please step forward." He waited for them to step forward, and when they did, he felt a rush of pride of making these apprentices warriors. "Heatherpaw, you have trained hard in the ways of the warrior code and I know you are ready for your warrior name. From this moment on, you will be known as Heatherdream. DreamClan honors your adaptation and understanding," he meowed, pausing a moment, then going on, "Cloverpaw, you too have trained for many moons for this day. I know you are worthy of your warrior name. From this moment on, you will be known as Cloverstem. DreamClan honors your determination and courage." He looked to the last apprentice, thinking for a second about the name, then deciding. "Cascadepaw," he murrowed, "I know you also trained just as hard. I believe your deserving of this name. From this moment on, you will be known as Cascadehope. DreamClan honors your bravery and strength." He waited for the apprentices, now warriors, to take this in for just a moment, then began the chant.
Heatherdream grinned and purred to herself. She was a warrior! Blindness hadn't stopped her!

OOC: I'm SO sorry I hadn't been here! School has been over-powering me >.<
Cascadepaw, now Cascadehope, smiled as she felt happy to finally have recieved her warior name. She looked at Heatherdream, then at her sibling, Cloverstem. She smiled, then looked at Noblestar, a happiness beyond words lighting in her eyes.

Noblestar suddenly gasped, feeling embarrassed. "Err," he meowed, "It seems I forgot one apprentice. But he is as deserving of his new name as any other, and shall be treated just as the other warriors. Chancepaw, from now on, you will be known as Chancestep. DreamClan honors your intellegence and your ability to take whatever life throws at you."

Chancestep's eyes were wide as he stared up at Noblestar in surprise. He was a warrior! Finally! He couldn't wait to tell Ivorystorm, Sunset, Twilight, Breaker and Torridheart!

Noblestar smiled warmly. "I have two more things to do before I let you all go off again and close the meeting," he said, "And one is appointing the new deputy. I say these words before DreamClan so they can hear and approve my choice. Timbercreek will be the deputy of BlazeClan." He paused for a while to let this sink in, then went on. "And now it is time to choose a new medicine cat. I have chosen Brokenstorm as the new medicine cat. Yarrowleaf, do you approve, and do you believe Brokenstorm is the right cat for this job?"
Yarrowleaf nodded. "Yes, Noblestar," she meowed.
"Then from now on, Brokenstorm will be our new medicine cat."

Whitecloud came running into the camp, panting. He had heard Noblestar's yowl, but didn't get there in time. His eyes showed pure terror. His shoulder was bloodied, and his taail was mangled. "A group of foxes are coming!" He screeched.

Cloverstem, Emberfrost, Crimsoneyes, and Lunarstorm all turned towards Whitecloud. Cloverstem ran up to his side. "Are you ok?" She asked, her eyes filled with worry. Then Emberfrost ran over too. "Where are they?" She asked, her eyes gleaming with anger.

"Field of Blaze Plants," He gasped. "One talks in the tongue of cat. He said that they were moving in, and having cat for dinner." His eyes glowed with rage.
