Sworn allegiance

[Loki]

(OOC:This is before the city)
IC:
"Daystar!?" Called Maplejay, "Daystar!?"
Behind her were three muscular, well fed toms. One purely white with a black tear streak going down towards his nose; He was known as Ice. The second was a large calico tom, the successor of Mudbloodclan; Stormclaw, The third was a sleek grey tabby tom, odd markings falling across his back; he his Fallenwing.
"What?" Hissed Daystar irritably and at the sight of the three toms his claws unsheafed and he almost flattened Maplejay in his attempt to see what they were doing in his camp.
Maplejay withdrew from Daystar, her shoulder slumped with a dribbling wound reopened as the Dewclan leader had shouldered passed.
He rounded on her, "You brought them here!?"
"No_Yes, I_"
"Even after_"
"We requested to speak with you," Ice mewed coolly, his blue eyes flickering with amusement.
"I see," Said Daystar dismissively, "And you thought you could just walk into my camp and_"
"We meant no disrespect," Ice gave a curt nod, "The lord requested it himself."
"The Lord? Your those mudbloodclan scum? Those who cause so much trouble for Abbysclan and Tawnyclan?" He mewed approvingly.
"We are no scum," He retorted Icily, "We work hard for what we have."
"A hole in the hills?"
"The mass army that lives in those hills, four hundred cats and counting."

nearby, in Jayleaf's den, Ravenswift came out from Maplejay's cry, his head and left eye wrapped in cobwebs. His blood grew cold and slow when he saw the intruders in the clearing " How in the name of Starclan did they get in here?!" he retorted to Maplejay who was just a mouse-length away from him.

After a moment, Fallenwing raised his head to look at the leader, So this is the leader? Doesn't look like it to me... and he reeks he thought coldly to himself. He turned his head to Maplejay and Ravenswift, and injured warriors too? They should be dead by now.

Ravenswift unsheathed his claws, fur bristling like a wildfire in Greenleaf, these cats made chills go down from ear to tail. But if he had to attack, he would.

[Loki]

"Well, I was in the water forest and they were heading for the camp, I tried to stop them but they refusedto leave and carried on..."
Its because I'm so weak... she thought miserably.
"I see..." Mewed Daystar interestedly, "And what would your lord want with me and my clan?"
"He asks for yours humble allegiance," Ice mewed with a reproachful gaze at the tan tom.
"four hundred cats and counting and you want the help of dewclan? Why not Tawnyclan, Abbysclan or Darkclan?"
"They are weak not only in strength but in mind, we need loyalty and strength something we guessed Dewclan possessed."
"Dewclan has it," Daystar spat reluctantly.
"And we require it. When this is all over you won't be pushed aside any more but respected."
Daystar liked the sound of that.
"All you want is me to swear my allegiance?"
Ice gave a small nod.

[NKninja]

Ravenswift layed his gaze on her " don't go hard on yourself, you did whats right" he mewed softly to Maplejay. but he was too concerned if we were going to be like that.
"i just hope we don't become one of those flea-bags." he growled

OOC: sorry for a short post, gtg...

[Runfast]

Foxclaw, who'd been speaking to his nephew, Firepaw, about his upcoming warrior ceremony, spun around when he scented the familiar scent. He recognized it far the far South of their territory.
Upon hearing the Daystar might actually listen to these cats, Foxclaw looked around for Dewdrop or Grimclaw - they had the ear of their leader, and he might listen to them. The russet warrior was 'too forgiving' to have any sway of Daystar's choices.
Starclan help us all...

Shadowpaw, also hours from becoming a warrior, peered out of the apprentice's den.
No, no, NO! If Dewclan joins Mudblood, then my plans of becoming leader will mean nothing!

[Loki]

Daystar narrowed his eyes, "And if we refuse?"
"Your fate will lie the same as the rest of those clans, that is," Ice flexed his blood muddy claws, "If you were too weak to accept our offer."
"I am not weak!" Daystar nearly howled, "And neither is our clan! We accept!"

[Meany]

Brownpaw hissed when the strange cats appeared. They smelled familiar - foreign, comforting - but wrong. The scent pricked at memories in the earlier sections of his mind.
"I will have revenge... On all of you!" Scream padded to the front of Brownpaw's mind and he thought, Looks like Falsecall is making his move...
Daystar had made his choice. Brownpaw quickly slid back into place.
"Join another Clan," he mewed, shocked. "But - will I still be warrior?"

[Guest]

Dewdrop's ears pricked. Become more powerful then the other Clans?
"I think Daystar is making a wise choice," she hissed to Brownpaw, swiping at him.

Grimclaw's ears flattened.
"Daystar," he padded up to the leader, whispering in his ear. "Do you really think this will make things better for us as a Clan? What about everything Dewclan stands for?... Don't you have faith in your own warrior's strengths?"

[Loki]

Daystar curled up his lips, "Stand for? We stand on our own legs Grimclaw and we won't move from our territory," He added to Ice.
"Oh nothing will change until the prophecy of the storm has come into... full swing," Ice purred coldly, "Cats from our clan will come here for any important news and Dewclan's reward in this offer of a life time will not go unheard as the other three clans will wish their respect for you and your clan had been... better thought of. Let it be known That Mudbloodclan is grateful and if ever your clan needs resources at any time we shall bring what you need as soon as possible..."
Daystar looked pleased, "I understand, I'll announce our allegiance at the coming gathering."
Ice smiled, "good and warriors will patrol your border frequently..." Ice's cold gaze swept over the present warriors, "to make sure no threats occur to our friends."

[Guest]

Grimclaw looked over the strange cats - their allies - and dipped his head to Daystar.
"Alright, Daystar," he conceded. "...Will you be holding the warrior ceremonies soon?" He spoke in a low voice still, directing all he said to his leader, staring with an intense gaze.

[Loki]

Daystar smiled warily," Of course, and our guests will now be leaving?"
Ice nodded and began to leave...

[Longstorm]

Firepaw, standing next to his uncle, glowered at Dewclan's new 'allies'. They have a ways to go before they earn my trust, he thought rebelliously.

Tigerpaw watched the big, scary-smelling cats leave. I hope they aren't gonna be here very much, he thought, thinking of what 'Ice' had said.
Thoughts of receiving a new mentor had all but left the young apprentice's mind.

OOC: Btw, Tigerpaw needs a new mentor - Windblow was his old mentor...

[NKninja]

Ravenswift turned and walked away, back to Jayleaf's den, head low in shame of his leader " mousebrained fool" he mumbled to himself.
if only he saw what he was getting into he thought when he reached the entrance of the den.
OOC: don't look at me, ravenswift is still a little young XD

[Loki]

Maplejay looked sadly at Daystar and limped into the Med den after him.
Daystar snorted, "yeah, well... lets get some ceremonies done."
Ice and the other two were almost gone when Daystar gave a cry of shock "Stormclaw!?"

OOC: you still want shadowspt and firefoot? also any specific mentor or...

[Longstorm]

OOC: Yeppers - and how about Coalstripe (was Firepelt, but I changed it up, and is Firepaw's dad, Foxclaw's bro).

Coalstripe looked up, seeing who Daystar had called out to. He does seem familiar!

Firepaw looked where his dad and uncle were looking.
"Who's Stormclaw," he hissed.

Tigerpaw had gone back to the apprentice's den, still kinda freaking out - he pushed past a bristling Shadowpaw on the way in.

OOC: Just noticed Riverpaw and Sunpaw need mentors/should become apprentices - how about our new warriors, or someone... Maybe Daystar himself, seeing as Hollypaw is missing?

[Guest]

Daystar suddenly froze,as a cold feeling went through his spine.Images of death and screaming rang through his ears. A blood pool was shown in his mind,a usual nightmare,but something was wrong.A familiar scream sounded,and Daystar was thrown back in reality.
He shuddered, looking among his clanmates.
"I remember a name like that........"he murmered,aalmost too quietly to hear.

[Loki]

(OOC: Flame now your back can take charge of the ceremonies!)

[Guest]

"ALL CATS OLD ENOUGH TO CATCH THEIR OWN PREY COME DOWN TO THE TALL ROCK FOR A CLAN MEETING!"He shouted as loud as he could.He didn't want any stragglers,now did he?

[Guest]

Jayleaf trotted over from his den, and leaped from rock to rock, and soon found himself sitting next to Daystar, as all Medicine Cats should be by their Leader's side during ceremonies. "Daystar, why are you calling a meeting?" he asked quietly. The blue-gray tabby tom's eyes glowed with curiosity.

[NKninja]

OOC: what about a deputy, Were short of one at the moment...

IC: Ravenswift padded near the medicine cat, but separated when he noticed he was going to talk to Daystar. He then looked around the clearing, looking for Maplejay, he settled down when he saw her near the warriors den. But for some reason, he didn't want to be near her... Just now. With all this commotion in one day, his head banged with the curiosity of those Mudblood cats. He sat down and waited for the leader to speak.

[Guest]

OOC:I'm not sure who a good deputy would be right about.....

IC:"We have some cerimonies,"replied Daystar.He kept his gaze low to show he was thinking.What if Mudbloodclan decides to doublecross us at the last second?But he knew they would keep their word.Until the prophecy went into full swing.What did that mean?


OOC:What should their warrior names be?

[Guest]

OOC:Whos becoming a warrior besides Firepaw and Shadowpaw?I hate being gone.I don't know how old half of the cats are.

[Loki]

Maplejay smiled as Ravenswift looked at her but he didn't join her...
Did I do something wrong?
So she turned and went to sit next to him... "I wonder what it is Daystar wants," She mewed in hope to spark a conversation.

Seven Mudbloodclan cats stopped their talking and looked around as Daystar called his underlings to him.
"Whats he playing at?" mewed Razz coolly.
"He is their leader..." muttered Uno shyly.
"I can't believe platoon six was placed here you know," Razz went on, his tail twitching.
"The Lord thinks were best fit for the job," mewed a ginger tom known as Dixen.
"I know, its just... whats the advantage of using this clan?"
"The Lord understands their situation better than we do, Don't forget platoon 5 are walking around in the hear."
"General Bender is hilarious when he gets angry... anyway; Hey Po!"
A black and brown tom looked at him, questioningly.
"Go report this to general Ted," Mewed Razz airily.
The tom shrugged and disappeared into the thicket.

(OOC: Firepaw and Shadowpaw have already had their ceremonies, I think we just need a deputies ceremony, Although I may be wrong..., may I suggest Dewdrop; her loyalty to Daystar has been outstanding.)

[NKninja]

Ravenswift looked at Maplejay and smirked " Maybe he'll turn me into an early elder" He purred sarcasticly, and turned away as he felt light headed. " What about those flea-bags?" he thought out loud, gesturing with his tail to the platoon only a few fox-lengths away from where they sat.

[Loki]

Maplejay smiled awkwardly and looked to the Mudblood or whatever clan cats.
They obviously hadn't heard Ravenswift because of their deep conversation but suddenly a
brown and black tom appeared in their midst and they all disappeared...
