~Interlude~

She looked around the forests of StarClan, and breathed in the sweet air.

"Shadowsong, you're late."

The she-cat turned and smiled as she saw the imposing face of her ancestor.

"Hello, Shadrachmoon. Still worrying about time?"

The tom smiled grimly.

"Yes. Derpy's not a very good influence for it."

Fallenstar padded up to Shadowsong and smiled at her.

"Hello, Shadowsong. I hail you by your new name, Shadowstar. Your old life is no more, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of DarkClan. Defend it well, care for the young and old, honour your ancestors and the warrior code and live each life with honour and dignity. With this life, I give you the gift of reason. Use it well, and do not provoke battles that could've been forgone."

Shadrachmoon padded forward and grinned.

"With this life I give you humour. Use it well, Shadowsong."

Shadowsong smiled as the old tom faded away, then turned to the next cat.

"With this life, I give you patience. Use it well."

"With this life, I gift you wisdom and loyalty. Use it well."

"With this life, I present you skill. Use it well."

"With your life, I give you knowledge. Different from wisdom, and use it well."

And so it went on.

At the end, The StarClan cats began yowling, "Shadowstar! Shadowstar! Shadowstar!" Until Shadowsstar felt a tugging snesation in her belly. Fallenstar padded to her and whispered, "Live your lives wisely," then pushed her away gently.

Shadowstar woke up, rejuvenated, then headed back to her Clan.
