"She's doing alright. Pouncepaw is a bit ambitious, which I find fitting for an apprentice. It always gives them that extra motivation to become a warrior. Perhaps you could discuss receiving an apprentice with Oakstar." Cliffpelt recommended to Jinxedheart as he walked.

"Ok so is everything given to us by Starclan?" Goldkit asked "No one will kill me then here?" (And now to do a hour of research... )

Sorry I've been really busy these past few days) Eagleflight lead the way through the territory, glancing back to make sure Dustpaw, Pouncepaw and Brackenfur were following every once in a while. "So Pouncepaw," He meowed after a little while. "What can you smell?" He wanted the older apprentice to show his apprentice what she knew. "You didn't wake me," Cloverstream meowed honestly and stood from her nest. "Want to share some prey with me?" She asked the other she-cat, she knew what it was like to feel lonely. Ravenpaw looked over his choices, noticing that Nightpaw had picked a small mouse, he didn't want to make her share such a small piece of prey so he grabbed a vole for himself to eat and lead the way over to the shade by the apprentices den to eat it. Slightly relieved Ravenpaw had decided something for himself, Nightpaw followed Ravenpaw and settled down beside him. She took a small bite out of her prey, wondering if what to talk about.

"Ok so is everything given to us by Starclan?" Goldkit asked "No one will kill me then here?" (And now to do a hour of research... ) [Got a research paper?] Hushclaw couldn't help, but let out a raspy bark of laughter. That was a jump in logic if she'd ever heard one. "Ha! ha, uh, no. I mean, there's not much opportunity for anyone to kill you when you've got your clanmates watching out for you, but you aren't immortal."Hushclaw lifted her head to gesture skyward as she explained, "Starclan is made up of our warrior ancestors. They have great wisdom and guidance. Even after death when they face no strife, warriors are looking out for their clan below."She looked back down to avoid getting a crick in her neck and continued, "Starclan has great power and knowledge which they've passed down to us through the ages. Without our ancestors, Our leaders wouldn't have their nine lives. We wouldn't know the battle moves we teach. Nor would we know the various hunting skills that feed our bellies." "That is why we give thanks over our prey."

(No I just have a huge project in science on the major extinctions and now my teacher assigned a 500 word essay on what we will be doing in 20 years. Luckily the essay is easy.)
"Ok." Goldkit said nodding. "So the leaders are almost immortal if they manage to keep their lives because once they die they lose a life but if they were sick their sickness would go away."
(I love how the Hunters incorporated the nine lives myth into the books.)

"If they die from the sickness their sickness will leave as they begin their next life," Hushclaw clarified having actually witnessed that situation. "But yeah, You'd think they'd be." Hushclaw nodded in agreement with Goldkit's assessment, but added, "I swear sometimes I think they'll put themselves in danger just because they 'have the lives to spare'. Foolish." She rolled her eyes at this, but continued more respectfully, "On the topic of leaders, that's another aspect of the Code. They are called our leader for a reason. The leader's word is law."
[Me too. I always thought that was cool to add.]

Cliffpelt purred as if he were proud of himself. In fact, he was, the fact that a cat took or even acknowledged his advice pleased the tom. "I'm so glad to hear that."

"Wait" Goldkit said something dawning on him. "What if a leader becomes to old? How does that work? Do they just die the remaining amount of lives left? Also what if no one agrees with the leader's idea?"

"Leaders may retire to the Elder's den, just like an old warrior would. Upon retiring, a leader's extra lives are returned to Starclan." Hushclaw meowed. She hadn't seen a leader retire, but she'd heard of it happening. Goldkit's other question was more difficult... She made sure her face was stern as she replied sharply, "We don't have to agree with our leader's decision, but we must follow it. They have Starclan's approval to lead our Clan as they see best." Hollowkit muttered something under her breath before exclaiming, "But you said bad leaders can happen earlier! What then?" Hushclaw squinted distastefully at the dark she-kit, but supposed that Goldkit would've pointed it out too. He had a sharp mind. "Then, I suppose the clan can decide to banish the leader. I have rarely heard of such a case though. A leader stealing territory and being a general foxfa-" Hushclaw quickly corrected her language, "rude individual... happens occasionally. But a leader putting their clan's survival in danger is near unheard of."

"Earlier you said that clans will fight over things. Could a leader want to take over territories, expand borders, and take over other clans?" Goldkit asked.

| Snowpaw | Jdawg_The_Wolf | A she-cat ,as her name suggests, with fur as white as snow. She has amber eyes with long sharp claws. | A she-cat that is very stubborn and stuck in her ways. She is very persistent but often gets focused and works on the wrong thing. She often is mistrusted and can be very mischevious and can also attempt to trick cats into doing something for her using her charm and wit. | she-cat | 6 moons | Apprentice (Just coming in as rogue?) | It will be revealed as the plot unfolds | Whiskerfalls | (please let her join from a rogue!!!)

If u want her to join as a rogue then give me her rogue name otherwise it'll get confusing to put her in Allegiences as an apprentice when she hasn't even joined the clan yet lol)

"What a quick catch!" The senior warrior complemented the younger tom as he lifted his muzzle up to catch the scent of some prey.

"Earlier you said that clans will fight over things. Could a leader want to take over territories, expand borders, and take over other clans?" Goldkit asked. "Theoretically." Hushclaw replied simply. "Wha...?" Hollowkit made a confused noise at the word. "It is possible, but its such a gargantuan, and not to mention pointless, endeavor that I've yet to hear of it happening.""Gar...what?" Hollowkit's ear were red with embarrassment as she tried to follow Hushclaw's answer. Hushclaw impatiently tried again, "BIG. Expanding territory on that scale isn't sustainable. Leaders who try would fail."

"Ok," Goldkit said pretending as if he understood the sentence from the beginning. He silently thanked Hollowkit. "So have there ever been corrupt leaders in the past?" Goldkit asked.

Jinxedheart dipped his head. " Thanks, Cliffpelt. I hope you catch something as well." He scented the air to see if any prey was around. {Sorry for the long-awaited response, I had some unexpected family issues, and I somehow managed to get sick as well.}
Cliffpelt smiled and dipped his head in gratitude. What a kind cat! Cliffpelt lifted his nose up to catch the scent of any prey. He caught the stench of something, maybe a rat or vole? The senior warrior would have preferred a vole, recalling the one time his uncle Ashclaw received a nasty bite from a rat that nearly got infected.

"Ok," Goldkit said pretending as if he understood the sentence from the beginning. He silently thanked Hollowkit. "So have there ever been corrupt leaders in the past?" Goldkit asked. "Sunstar, the leader before Oakstar, was a good tom." Hushclaw had joined Fallenclan while Sunstar was leader and got a wistful expression at his memory. "And while I never met her, I heard only good things about Thrushstar." Hushclaw's ears shot up as she remembered something, "Ah, There are a few old kit tales passed down with mention of a corrupt leader. You'll have to ask Deersong to tell you them sometime. She'll remember them better than I, since she grew up on them."

I've been busy and sick as well. ] Jinxedheart turned away, letting the senior warrior go after the vole or rat nearby. He padded off in the opposite way for a few tail-lengths, hoping to find more prey. He flicked his tail lightly as he continued padding along softly, searching for more prey.

"Can you tell me some stories about Sunstar?" Goldkit asked noting to ask Deersong about the stories. "I'm simply interested to hear about him."
