Featherrain had to talk to him, he needed to know to tell the clan. "Boulderstar, are you in?" She asked kind of begging.

Boulderstar blinked. He had been thinking deeply about SilenceClan and the threat they posed - now he swore he had heard a voice.
"Uh... enter...?" He meowed hesitantly. He didn't want to sound stupid if some cat was walking past, but he didn't exactly want to ignore a cat that may have been there. Curse me and my worrying. He thought with a sigh.

Featherrain padded in with watery eyes. "Crookfaith has drowned in the Gorge...I went to Moonstone to see what had happen. He told me that himself...I-I also got my Medicine Cat name...I'm Featherrain now."

Boulderstar stared at her for a few moments. He flattened his ears on his skull.
"Alright, note to self... too many cats have been drowning lately... keep away from the ravine..." he muttered. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and then reopened them.
"I see." He meowed gravely, "Then we shall hold a vigil for him tonight. I welcome you as the Clan's medicine cat, Featherrain." He meowed, padding up to her and touching her ear gently with his nosetip.

"Thank you, Boulderstar. I just wish I would have gotten my name another way without losing Crookfaith...so when should we tell the Clan?" Featherrain asked looking down at her paws sadly.

"Now. As I said, we must hold a vigil." He sighed. Boulderstar beckoned for Featherrain to follow and padded up to the Tall Root. He leaped onto it and flicked his tail for Featherrain to stand just below it. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, join here beneath the Tall Root for a Clan meeting!"

Featherrain sat below Tall Root. She glaced out at her fellow clanmates sadly.
Hollyleaf sat by the nursery with Streakwater's kits. She looked up at her daughter who looked sad. She wondered what was wrong, she was sure she was going to find out.

Streamstone padded into camp beside Hawkflight. She wondered what was happening, but she supposed she'd learn soon enough. They padded up to their place and sat down side-by-side. I wonder what's happening. She thought. Adderstrike padded out of the Warriors den after a little while.

Badgerstripe wrapped his tail around his paws, sitting at the edge of camp. His eyes blazed as he waited to hear his leaders news. Something about Crookfaith. I haven't seen him at all today..

Boulderstar smiled at her.
"You'll be a great Medicine cat." He murmured. He looked at his gathered Clanmates and took a deep breath.
"My Clanmates... today is a very tragic day. Crookfaith, our beloved Medicine cat who came from his Clan out of loyalty to StarClan to help us in our time of need... has drowned. Tonight we will hold vigil for him. Featherpaw has been given her full name, Featherrain, and she will now be WindClan's Medicine cat." He meowed gravely.

Featherrain caught Boulderstar's gaze. "Why did this happen to me?" She though. "Thank you, Boulderstar. He was a great mentor and friend of mine. He will be missed very much. He was too young to go.." Featherrain started to cry. She needed support from her family at a time like this.

[[Streak's kits need apprentice names in case you were wondering...]]
Mountainfur bowed his head but said nothing. At only eight moons, she was extremely young to take the position. But StarClan would guide her, and she would do well.

Featherrain glanced at her father. She sighed of course her brother's were no where in sight. Figures, they never cared for her. She had no one in this empty world the Clans called home.
Hollyleaf padded over to Mountainfur pressing her pelt with his, she sighed glancing at her daughter. "Maybe we should comfort her?"

Boulderstar bowed his head, signaling that the meeting was over. He leaped off the Tall Root and touched Featherrain's shoulder with his tail tip.
"Why don't we join them?" It wasn't as much a question as a statement. He padded up to some of the senior warriors, his face somber as he mourned the loss of their Medicine cat.

Mountainfur nodded and sighed. He turned to see Boulderpaw smiling at his sister, but atqintedpaw popped out of re sen and pushed him back in. Why was Taintedpaw like that? He wished his son could bemnicer to Featherrain.

Featherrain nodded walking over to the senior warriors with Boulderstar, her mother and father. Featherrain nuzzled Hollyleaf for comfort. Hollyleaf hugged her back. "I'm so sorry, Featherrain..." Hollyleaf meowed sadly. "He was a great cat. I just really miss him..." Featherrain meowed looking up at the sky with a clouded stare in her eyes. She was saying her final farewell to her mentor. Without looking at anyone, she mumbled. "Why aren't Taintedpaw and Boulderpaw here?" She asked dryly. Hollyleaf glanced at Mountainfur, she was without words. "I-I don't know..." Hollyleaf meowed weakly back. Featherrain closed her eyes, then nodded. "I'm sure they both will be thrilled their going to have another sister and brother to love..." The pale grey she-cat meowed looking at her mother's belly, then glanced at her father with weak eyes. "Take care of mom and the new kits..." Hollyleaf don't looked shocked, because she had a feeling she was with kits again, but said nothing. She just looked at Mountainfur then back at Featherrain. Featherrain turned to Boulderstar. "I'm going to sit my vigil at the Gorge which took Crookfaith from us..." She placed her tail on his shoulder gently. "I'll be very careful and won't get to close." She gave a weak smile as she walked out of the camp to the gorge.

Streakwater sat alone at the Gorge, thinking. She had been alone during the Gathering, and had no idea what had gone on at camp. All she knew was two curious artifacts and a sea of thoughts. One was the claw marks in the earth, the other was the tufts of dark grey fur as well as some signs of blood. But only a bit. Probably a mouse or a rabbit or something. But the loss of Badgerstripe was a card playing hard at her. She may not have loved him, but what was still her old self was missing him. She could hardly bear it. But he had left her. What could she do?

"What are we supposed to do? I mean...I'm pregnant again..." Hollyleaf meowed.

Mountainfur purred, nuzzling her.
"Enjoy ourselves, I guess. I mean, is it that big of a deal to you? Maybe you can stay in the Warriors den for some time. The kits need to be apprenticed anyway." Mountainfur said with a smile, stroking Hollyleaf with his tail. Why was she so worried? Kits were a good thing! Besides, he loved her to death and was glad that she returned the favor. They could raise another family together. As long as Hollyleaf didn't go crazy from staying in the Nursery.

"No..No..I'm really happy we're having kits again, I think you should tell Taintedpaw and Boulderpaw. I'm kinda tired. I'm going to get some sleep." Hollyleaf purred licking Mountainfur's check then went to the nursery to rest.
