The sun set high in the sky, another amazing day of new-leaf. A jet black tom, stealthily padded into Ravenclan clearing leaping on top of the high rock. He sat neatly his tail wrapped around his paws, sitting straight up and chest sticking out proud.
"Let all cat old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the high rock for a clan meeting!" he yowled, his voice ringing around the camp.
Blackfrost sat and waited for the clan to gather than he would tell them the important news. He was anxious, today was the day he would become leader of Ravenclan, and he had many plans for his new clan. |

'"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the high rock for a clan meeting!"'
Duskfeet ceased his mid-day grooming with a final swipe of a grey paw against his ear. He got up and streached, his lean muscles showing under his midnight colored pelt. He walked over to the base of the high rock, sat on the ground, and wrapped his tail around his paws.
"I wonder what this meeting is about,' he thought to himself, sweeping his yellow-green gaze over the camp, looking for his daughter. "She better not be late for no good reason," he grumbled, looking back at the tom pearched on the highrock.

Mousepelt was dozing off in the warm Newleaf weather when he heard the call from the high rock. His eyes slowly opened and he turned himself around, getting to his paws. He stretched and yawned before trodding up to where the other cats were gathering. He sat close to the back, seeing the jet black cat standing on the rock. 'Wonder what this is about..' he thought to himself, giving another yawn.

Russetfang padded out of the warriors den taking a minute to pick the moss out of her pelt and stretched her legs. Hearing one of her den mates call a meeting was weird usually her leader did this. Spotting Mousepelt she trotted over and settled down beside him. "Hey" she purred rubbing up against her mate. |

Mousepelt instantly woke up at the scent of Russetfang and the feel of her pelt against his. He wrapped his tail around her and gave her a little nudge with his head. "What do you think this is about?"

Russetfang thought a moment, "I'm not to sure, usually Darkstar calls clan meetings, hes the leader not Blackfrost" the she-cat meowed wearily. Something couldn't be right if the leader wasn't calling the meeting, this made Russetfang more anxious then ever to hear what the tom had to say.
OOC: Btw Darkstar is made up with permission of Serenity. To let all Ravenclan cats know |

"I hope nothing has happened to Darkstar. He was a great leader, and it would hurt this clan if he were gone." Mousepelt had seen the entire rule of Darkstar and knew that he was a loyal and all around good leader. "Maybe he's just sick and asked Blackfrost to say something?" He suggested, unsure of himself.

Russetfang nodded her head than looked around to see more cats gathering. Her gaze went up to Blackfrost waiting for the meeting to start.
Blackfrost saw that most the clan was here so it was time to begin. "Hello. I know you are used to Darkstar being up here to call a clan meeting but, unfortunately the great Darkstar has passed. It was kept quiet until now, but I had discovered his body on the Thunderpath today. The strong loyal leader we knew was to torn apart to take the remains back to camp, it looks like some other animals got to him before hand. I now before Starclan take the new position as leader of Ravenclan. I will do my best to serve you all" he meowed, standing tall and strong when giving the news to his clan mates. |

Mousepelt's eyes grew clouded with saddness. He had a feeling that some news like that would be said, but tricked himself into believing it wasn't true. He couldn't find the strength to cheer for his new leader, so he just sat there, taking in the news.

Russetfang eyes grew lighter sad about the sudden death of the amazing leader she knew. The she-cat sensed Mousepelt's feelings to and snuggled closer brushing her head against him trying to cheer him up. "It will be OK. He walks with Starclan now" she meowed trying to calm herself as well as her mate. Maybe the news she had to tell Mousepelt after the meeting with cheer him up more.
Blackfrost took a breath than spoke once more, "From this day on I will be known as Blackstar. I will look to my warrior ancestors tonight to give me my nine lives. I will be leaving soon, but now that I am leader, I have to appoint a new deputy. Mousepelt can you please come before me" he meowed waiting for the warrior to make his way up to the high rock. |

Mousepelt looked up, startled. 'What's this about?' he thought to himself. He had been lost in his own thoughts, so he was confused as he stood up and walked forwar in front of the high rock.

"I say these words before Starclan, that the spirits of our warrior ancestors may hear and approve of my choice. The new deputy of Ravenclan is Mousepelt! He has shown great strength and loyalty and will be a great deputy to the clan" Blackfrost meowed his eyes scanning the clearing as he spoke.
Russetfang eyes suddenly grew with happiness for her mate, "Mousepelt! Mousepelt!" she chanted excitedly. The calico she-cat couldn't be more thrilled for Mousepelt, if any cat he really earned this position. |

The saddness temporarily evaporated at the news. He never thought he would be given such a great honor. He looked up and silently thanked Starclan and the late, great Darkstar. He heard Russetfang chanting his name and looked behind him, giving her a smile. He then looked back at their new leader and dipped his head. "Thank you."

Blackstar dipped his head back to the new deputy, "Its my pleasure" he meowed. "Thats all. This meeting is officially over" he added before jumping down from the high rock and padding right into his den.
Russetfang gave a smile back and as the meeting was adjourned she waited for Mousepelt to come back so she can share even more exciting news. |

Mousepelt walked back with his head high, letting the feeling of this honor course through his veins. When he got back, his mate seemed even more excited than he was. "You sure look happy," Mousepelt commented, giving her ear a lick.
