Hazelstar still couldn't believe that she was here and a leader. It was only a few moons ago when she became leader when Leafstar sacrificed himself for his mate. Leafstar was a wonderful leader, he believed in her when everyone else thought she was going to run off to Blackclan once she found out where her family was from. She never would though and she knew that. Finding out maybe made her even more loyal to Moonclan. Her family expected her to ditch the life that she had to be with them but there was no way she was going to do that. She sort of wished that Blackclan was still around just so she could rub it in their face that she was leader now.
Stretching Hazelstar made her way out of her den and out into the clearing. She purred slightly to herself as she saw everyone in camp. Just looking at them gave her a sense of pride being their leader. She loved this clan more than anything in the world and would do anything for them. Satisfied that no one needed her at that second she sat down in front of her den and began cleaning her white and golden fur all while keeping one blue eye on what was going on around her.

Mythicstream had been awake for a while but she stayed in the warriors den. When she saw Hazelstar she got up and padded to her. Normally a young warrior like her wouldn't just go up to the leader and chat. But this was different. Hazelstar is her close friend. Maybe her closest. They have been friends ever since her parents died. Infact, Hazelstar was her mentor. That's what most likely made them as close as they are. "Hazelstar, can I lead a hunting patrol?" She asked respectfully. Though she was her friend, she was still leader.

Hazelstar of course had been a mentor before. Two times actually. The most recent, and maybe her favorite was Mysticstream. She was Leafstar's daughter and now Hazelstar was taking the place of Leafstar. One might think that it would be awkward between them because of that reason. They had become close though and Hazelstar didn't want that to change just because she was leader. Even leaders needed friends.
"Hazelstar, can I lead a hunting patrol?" Hazelstar stopped cleaning herself as Mysticstream came over and spoke. She didn't say anything for a second wondering why Mysticstream would ask her a question like that before she remembered that she was leader and leaders were asked questions like that. "Of course!" Hazelstar said, "What's going on with you?

"Nothing really..." Mythicstream replied with a sigh. "It's been pretty peaceful..." Which meant boring somewhat to her. She like the peaceful times but she also liked something exciting to come up. Nothing like murders or anything like that but something more than the same old thing over and over. "What about you Hazelstar? Is everything alright?" She didn't want to ask directly. It wasn't her place to ask about StarClan, that was the medicine cats job. She still was curious though.

Hazelstar nodded as Mysticstream talked. Everything had been quiet. Ever since Bramblefire had been killed, by what she had heard was his son, there had been no sign of Blackclan. That was a wonderful thing for the clans, it meant that everything was going smoothly but it also meant that they had no idea what Blackclan was doing now, and if it still existed.
"I believe so. I haven't heard or felt otherwise. It's just strange settling into the position of leader and not knowing what Blackclan is doing," Hazelstar said. She paused then added softly, "What if I'm not a good enough leader? I know that Skyclan gave me my lives but what if...?" Hazelstar turned away fro Mysticstream slightly. She knew that she wasn't suppose to talk about things like this with the cats of the clan but she couldn't help it, she needed someone to talk to.

"Don't talk that way. You are and will always be a great leader." Mythicstream assured her. Then it came to her. Hazelstar mentioned BlackClan like they were still out there. But they were defeated with just about every member dead. "BlackClan isn't doing anything. They are fininshed! Aren't they... Hazelstar?" Mythicstream asked. What if there was a secret about BlackClan. What if the Clans were still in danger from them?! Could they possibly beat them again?!

Hazelstar nodded as Mysticstream talked. She knew that her friend was right but everyone had their doubts at time. She just had to push them aside and do the best she could, because that was all she was expected to do.
"BlackClan isn't doing anything. They are fininshed! Aren't they... Hazelstar?" Hazelstar sighed slightly. That was what everyone thought and she was going to leave it that way because she didn't know otherwise. "I don't know, which I think is worse than knowing. I do know that Bramblefire is dead, but what about the rest of them?" She bit back her tongue from adding a comment about her family. That was what was really bugging her, what happened to her family, her mother, father, and brother?

"I thought just about everyone of them died and only a few got away wounded." Mythicstream told her. She wasn't born when the BlackClan crisis started but she heard a bunch of stories. "If they are still around in a Clan they would need a leader. When I saw them they looked like they didn't have minds of their own. With Bramblefire dead I thought they just became rouges. Do you think they could be rebuilding?" Mythicstream asked worriedly.

Hazelstar listened to Mysticstream talk, now she was making her warrior worried. She didn't want that. A leader was suppose to be calm and not show any sign of fear to the other cats of the clan. It was different when she was a warrior, she could say things like that and not worry about their effects.
Standing up and stretching Hazelstar said, "You're right. I'm thinking about this too much. There is no way they could rebuild, they weren't able to sustain a clan before why could they now?" She paused thinking about that. The truth was, she didn't believe it. "How about I go on that patrol with you? I need to get my head out of his camp."

"Ok great!" Mythicstream was glad she was going. She tried to put this whole thing they were talking about in the back of her mind. BlackClan was gone forever. "So, I guess you want to lead?" Mythicstream asked. Hazelstar was the leader so it would only make sense if she did. Today was going pretty well. No worries about BlackClan. Her best friend, the leader was going on a hunting patrol with her. There weren't any sick or hurt cats and everyone was enjoying their lives. Of course this made her worried. Everything seemed quiet, possibly a little too quiet. Oh great! Now she was paranoid.

Hazelstar started to walk into the center of camp looking around for someone to join them in their patrol. "So, I guess you want to lead?" Hazelstar paused to think about that. Whenever she went on a patrol she lead, and Mysticstream had asked to lead. "You can lead if you still would like to," She lifted her head up to the sky. It was a bit cloudy, like they were taunting them with the possibility of rain. Really, they could use some because it had been hot and muggy lately, plus the water would help more herbs grow for the medicine cat. "You know anyone who might like to join?"

Mythicstream couldn't believe that she would be leader her leader on a hunting patrol. Do you know anyone who would like to join?Mythicstream shook her head. "Pretty much anyone I guess. Right now everyone is being lazy!" Mythicstream laughed. She looked around and saw that there were cats still sleeping in their dens. Apparently enjoying the peace. Then it came back to her. How long could this possibly last? There is always a problem coming up. Some bigger than others. She tried to shake the thought off again. She wanted to enjoy this peace as well.

Iceowl padded into the clearing with his two kits, Hollypaw and Hawkpaw. Iceowl was carrying three mice with him while Hollypaw had a cardinal. Hawkpaw was empty pawed and was bickering back and fourth with Hollypaw about how she stole the bird from under his paws. Hollypaw however carried the brightly colored red bird with pride.
Iceowl saw the gathered cats and hurried to the fresh kill pile and dropped his kills, "Oh, a patrol? I have two cats who can join you." he meowed cheerfully looking at his kits.
Hollypaw threw her catch down and eagerly padded to the grouped cats, "Yeah I'll go! i caught a cardinal today that almost flew away before I could grab it!" she excitedly bragged.
"Nu-uh! It was my bird, you just saw it first!" he complained, sticking his tongue out at his sister.
Hollypaw stuck hers out at him and then ignored him.
Hawkpaw narrowed his eyes and smacked her with his tail as a whip.
"Ouch! that hurt Hawkpaw! Daddy! he hit me-" Hollypaw was cut off by Icepwls tail over her mouth, "Shhhh...no arguing anymore. Both of you behave like apprentices and not kits." he told them.
"Yes sir." they both sighed and then Hawkpaw glanced at Hazelstar, "Where are we going? a battle?" he asked her squeakily.

ooc:is Mythicstream Hawkpaw's mentor right now?
Mythicstream purred in amusement. "Nope." She answered the apprentice. "We are going hunting. Do you know of anyone else that wants to go?" She asked warmly. She waited for the apprentices to answer. This was a good time to teach the apprentices about the importance of hunting in patrols for the Clan and not just for yourself.
ooc:sorry its short! I g2g!

Hazelstar smiled as the kits walked over to the two she-cats. She purred softly as the two bickered. "Your father is right, only apprentices are able to go on patrols," she said still smiling. She had always wanted kits but that dream came to a crashing halt when she became deputy, followed by leader. An image of Birchfire, now Birchstar, came into her mind but she quickly pushed it away. Her days of childish love were over.
"We are going hunting. Do you know of anyone else that wants to go?" Hazelstar snapped back into reality and looked at the cats around her. "How about Faintstep, your mentor Hollypaw? We should have enough cats then." That seemed like a good plan, she would be able to see how the apprentice's training was going.
