Bright amber eyes glinted in the midday sun, leader like determination forever set in them. NightClan needed some sorting out, and to do that, the black she-cat would have to assert her dominance. She was, in fact, still the leader; no matter how much some cats thought she was unfair. By that, Silverstripe and Lightningstreak, was whom she meant. They just didn't get that she set them apart for a reason, because she needed her warriors to be mature enough to not get themselves hurt showing off around their mates. Besides that, the rest of her clan was being lazy, no hunting or patrols were getting done. Tygerclaw hadn't been heard around for a while, which was a rare thing indeed. Calling to all of her cats, not for a clan meeting but just to talk, Rubystar sat and waited patiently.
"I'd like for every member of NightClan to come out and into the Camp."
She meowed loudly, but still gently and in control, as a leader always should be.

Lightningstreak was able to heard Rubystar talking from inside the camp. Carrying a hawk she just killed, she walked into the camp and over to the prey pile. Dropping the huge bird off, she walks over to where Rubystar was and sat down. Her fluffy tail curling over her front legs. She somehow knew that this chat was about her nad Silverstripe being lazy. She hasnt been with Silverstripe for the past few days. She's been ignoring him by doing other stuff. Its not her fault that the other cats where starting to become lazy and making her do most of the hunting and patroling. Because of her moves that no other cat has seen and her skill to hunt hawks, they think that they have the strong cat. Lightningstreak hasnt been able to sleep for the past few days. She just couldnt sleep in a pretty good while and its starting to affect her. She might take a small nap after this, unless Rubystar has something for her to do.

Silverstripe Life is not fair, cruelty is my middle name.The tom walked in from the dung place, he licked his paw and looked up he heard the call from their black-haired, amber eyed, she-cat of a leader, with a smile he trotted over, Silverstripe was quiet happy, he had a mate, a clan, and maybe even kits, soon, maybe, shhh. He sat down across from Lightningstreak of course,far away, he looked up wondering what this was about. Probably the fact the clan had gone down hill. Leopardshine I care, i dont not lie, i love.The silver she cat looked out the medicine cat den a herb in her mouth, A meeting, its about time, she put it away in the proper place and walked out, her tail high. She sad down closer to the leader she wanted to hear everything that will go on, has gone on and is going on in the camp. She curled her stripped tail over her silver paws and glanced at her brother wondering what is happening. Tygerclaw I may be old but i can still claw you of the face of this earthTygerclaw slowly makes her way out of the elders den , all her muscles and joints hurting like a old car, squeaking and rusty. she sighs, her leader had called and she must atend this meeting. The she-cat sits down, well lays down the look on her face pained, but she will not take medicine or herbs.. she will take care of her self.

"I'd like for every member of NightClan to come out and into the Camp." Our leader called out. About time things started getting cleared up. I followed my apprentice out into the bright light. I blinked my eyes, trying to adjust to the light. It was a lot brighter out here than in the cave. I was so happy! I had just earned the position of medicine cat and loving every minute of it. My apprentice was eager to learn and I was eager to teach everything I knew. I just loved young cats! It was so fun to watch them learn about the world around them. I sat next to Leopardshine. "What do you think this is all about?" I asked her quietly. After all I was knew in NightClan. I turned my attention to Rubystar, waiting to hear what this was about.

Leopardshine I care, i dont not lie, i love.The she cat looked over to her newly appointed mentor, she sighed though, the silver she -cat knew she still had a lot more to learn, but she thought she could do just fine wit out a new mentor. She did smile, Leopardshine was not a cat for hating or judging, she looked at Rubystar and back at Willownight, ''Its about laziness in the clan, i think mostly between my brother and his mate.. they have issues''. She rolled her eyes thinking of the many nights she followed that old brute, she had to keep an eye on that cat, he was so annoying but she loved him. The silver female did smile threw the memories, and if the new medicine cat wanted the full story she would get it, but not here, it would be too long. She curled her tail and looked back at Rubystar hopping the leader did not hear that or see it.

"So what happened between them? I mean they don't seem to know that it's probably about them." I replied to Leopardshine. I looked at the leader hoping that she didn't hear us talking. I mean that would really be bad. After all it would more likely be the paws talking or kits instead of the medicine cat and her apprentice. Besides being a medicine cat was important. You saved lives and were usually close to the leader. I held my head high and curled my long black tail around me.

Leopardshine I care, i dont not lie, i love.Leopardshine giggled, she remembered all the times her brother got in trouble, but looked up at her mentor, she was still growing lets say,''Well lets say my brother is a show of and think he is the bets at everything. so he got hurt showing of to his now mate, and back then we only had them to as warriors and a elder.. and of course me. So most of the duties where put on poor Lightningstreak, most of the other cats where called lazy, and now that my brother is better i guess she has things to say''.She smiled, these memories where not the best one but they always made her laugh, her brother was so dumb, in a male way, and Leopardshine always tried to protect him, but it was hard being a medicine cat and a mother figure to her brother all in one.

"How about you tell me everything later? I don't want to get caught talking that would be kind of akward." I whispered. I looked up at RubyStar but in my mind I was thinking about where to find the best herbs and what we needed. I would have to ask Leopardshine where to find herbs around here. I was impaitient to start working again but what our leader had to say was more important, I think. My tail tip twitched impaitiently despite me trying to hold a serious stance. I was statue still, except for my tail, and maintianed that serious, semi focused look.

Leopardshine I care, i dont not lie, i love.The medicine cat apprentice nodded,''Of course, we can speak later'' She blinked up to leader, and sighed. The clan is falling apart and Rubystar was doing everything she could to stop it. It was like gluing a vase together, many small pieces, and time, but eventually you will do it. She waited and watched, hopefully soon she will find what what will happen.

I nodded to the apprentice and turned back to Rubystar. NightClan sure was a small clan, we needed more members but we were falling apart. I noticed how lazy the clan was getting, I hope that Rubystar could fix that. She was doing the best she could and she would get everyone back in place somehow. Us medicine cat certainly weren't lazy, after all Leafbare was coming and we had to prepare. That reminded me, we had to get some more cat mint before they froze. Oh I wish that Rubystar would hurry up! There was so much to do and so little time!

Amber eyes swept out among the small group of cats that the black she-cat called her clan. The leader waited for her medicine cats to finish their little chat impatiently, it was not their turn to speak after all. This clan needed to be sorted out so they knew where there place was. Only the suitably coloured leader didn't know how, she supposed she would start with the basics and hope things turned out from there. Settling herself, she curled her tail around her swift paws and started her little speech, her eyes boring down on the two medicine cats pointedly, telling them not to interrupt her.
"I've noticed this Clan has become lazy, this is partially my fault for not paying attention to what has been going on,"
A slight pause filled the air as the night coloured leader scanned the crowd to make sure all were listening, when she spotted Lightningstreak and Silverstripe she was reminded of other things she needed to address. Her authority wasn't taken very seriously and she needed to fix that, and the fact that most cats thought the black she-cat was unfair.
"But it is not entirely my fault, all of my warriors need to become more active for this clan or we will fall."
Rubystar was making this up as she went along, hoping that she wouldn't mess up. This meeting had been called on a whim, she hadn't been sure what she would say or anything. The tip of her tail twitched in the silence and she kept on going.
"In addition to that, I am your leader and I expect your respect, as long as I have yours you shall have mine. Anything I do is for your own good and is not something I do just to be mean."
Amber eyes were pointedly directed at Lightningstreak and Silverstripe, this line was mainly for them, but it was for the whole clan in future too. This Clan's leader was fair, she wouldn't mention the mates outright. Even they didn't deserve that.
"Now, Silverstripe pick a couple of warriors for a border patrol. While you're there try to hunt too. Lightningstreak, go rest, you look exhausted. Whoever else is left, go about your normal day."
That was that and Rubystar was done, although now she waited for a few questions before her warriors went about a patrol. The silence clearly stated that. [/size]

The elderly nodded, she was mad, this clan was falling apart and poor Rubystar had to get the blame for it, but no, the cats of this clan was the one whom had to work for this. She hissed and stood up as the meeting ended. ''Good job Rubystar'', the she-cat called as she walked away, her tail was high and her ears where pulled back. The cat was still in pain but the safety of her clan, and well being was way to important to her.
The medicine cat apprentice felt ashamed, she pulled back her ears in embarrassment, and looked at her new mentor, ''Maybe it is time we go gather herbs for leafbare''. It was true, the days where getting shorter and colder, soon the grass would be frozen and covered in snow, kits would be full grown and apprentices, they had to start working on gathering food, and herbs, cats would start to get sick.. they needed a plan.
The cat nodded at his leader, though truth be told, he was one of the few warriors,Bayfur and Allussympelt. So he decided to call the two toms, hoping they would come, ''Lets go Bearpaw? and you too Bay fur?''. Soon the clan would be full of food, and warm, Leaf=bare was on its way and they would have to stalk up. Silverstripe did not even look back on his mate, they had to keep away from each other for a while, and that is what they are doing. He sighed and left the camp, tail and ears high.

Lightningstreak narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the ground. She wasnt going to rest at all. So what if she hasnt slept for a while, she was going to do her own thing. She stodd up and started to walk towards the tunnel to get to the territory. She was going to go to a secret spot she found. She never told Silverstripe about it and was defentilly not going tell Rubystar or any other cats. It was her own, personal area she likes to go to get away for a while and that it has a lot of hawk nests in the area. So lucky for her that she is able to keep her strength up and adding more strength to her muscles under her thick, black pelt and yellow streak.

"Yes we should start gathering herbs for leaf bare." I said quickly. "Maybe you should go see which ones we need then, we can head out together." I needed to say that I was sorry to Rubystar. It was rude that I had talked in a Clan meeting but I didn't think it had began. I wanted to talk to Rubystar anyway. "Rubystar! I need to talk to you!'' I called to the leader. Then I looked down shyly. Cruse that part of me!

Despite the heaviness of the topic, the midnight black leader couldn't help but smile at Tygerclaw. That tiger tabby was one of Rubystar's first clan members and was the most determined, everyone could learn from her even though she was an Elder. It seemed the leader had gotten her point across for the most part, the cats looked as if they had actually listened to her for the first time. She saw to it that Silverstripe got his three cat patrol up and watched as Bayfur easily accepted it and joined Bearpaw and Silverstripe. Thank goodness something was getting done around the Clan. Sighing as Lightningstreak stormed off, disobeying orders and once again disrespecting the leader, Rubystar turned away to leave. That was until she heard her new medicine cats call for her. Querying amber eyes strayed to the she-cats face silently before she leaped down easily and strode toward the second most important cat in the clan.
"And what would that be about Willownight? In my den."
Rubystar flicked her tail toward her lynch curtained den before leading the way, hoping that her medicine cat would abide and follow. She needed to talk to Lightningstreak after this small meeting with Willownight, the midnight leader had pinpointed where she had gone. [/size]
