"I understand. I myself have a clanmate who I see as a brother, very close. I as well was not born in Riverclan, but I was saved by them, and in return I vow to dedicate my life to them." Diamondheart nodded, admitting his Rouge and Thunderclan blood that he had only recently discovered. Riverclan had found him as a kit, and he had learned his true brother lived in Thunderclan, that their father was Thunderclan and who died moons ago.
The deputy shook his head. "Well, I'm glad you are not alone. Both of you."

Diamondheart pushed through the reeds easily, speaking to the kits. "Careful. Don't fall too much into the water. Wouldn't want to keep falling and chasing after you." His voice twinged with light humor, but also with deep concern for their safety.

"Got it!" Tawny mewed. Willow made a small noise of agreement. Willow, being less cautious, made it through the reeds easily, avoiding the water. Tawny followed less gracefully, and splashing slightly, but both she-kits made it through mostly unscathed. Diamondheart kept track of the kits' personalites and actions, his eyes scanning them as they walked. He found Willow to be more headstrong and brave, while Tawny seemed more careful and observative. Both seemed pretty dead set on joining, and the deputy had to know. "How have you heard about us, little ones?" He wondered.

"By loners..." Diamondheart hummed. He wanted to know more, but the last thing he needed was to sound forceful or invasive. Rather, these were things Earthstar needed to know and ask first. He swished his tail and nodded. "So long as these loners don't plan on coming in droves to our clan, we should be fine."

Diamondheart gave a small chuckle, his eyes flashing with surprise. He gave a small lift of his brow, inquiring. "And just what have you gathered on Riverclan? Why choose to come here and attempt to join us? Surely you know there are risks."

Diamondheart's humor seemed to fade to intreauge. How many loners knew that much about the clans. "You two sure know a thing or two...I can only imagine what you've heard. Okay. We're getting closer to camp."

(Frozen!!!)
Diamondheart led the young she-cats towards the camp, his fur relaxed to show that he was bringing in harmless cats. He mewed to the she-kits. "Willow, Tawny, be as relaxed as possible. We will not hurt you, but some cats will be curious and protective." He nodded, pushing into the camp entrance.

Earthstar was in his den.
Icepath looked over at the newcomers, her fur raising. Outsiders?
Shellstream looked over at the commotion.
Troutfang's fur bristled at the scent of the newcomers.
Salmonpaw and Koipaw looked over with curiosity.

Salmonpaw and Koipaw looked over with curiosity. Diamondheart stood in the camp center, looking at Tawny and Willow before he spotted Icepath. He mewed to the older she-cat. "Can you retrieve Earthstar? These little ones wish to speak with him." Owlwhisker tipped his head curiously, recognizing loner and twolegplace cat scent. Foxripple bristled carefully next to him. Jaggedpaw and Ospreypaw shared a suspicious glance, while Swanpaw and Iciclepaw watched quietly.

Icepath narrowed her eyes at the newcomers, but didn’t dare disrespect her deputy. “Right away.”
She turned and called for Earthstar, who padded out of the den. “Who do you have here?” He asked.

"These two apparently have heard about us through the musings of loners and twolegplace cats. I found them trying to search for us, actually. They...desire to join Riverclan." Diamondheart was not one to beat around the bush, and he looked at Tawny and Willow, nodding for them to speak.

“They want to join us?” Earthstar repeated. “How did they find out about us? And why?” he questioned.

Earthstar flicked an ear. “Interesting. I’ve seen few outsiders that seek us out to join us...” he mewed, but Owlwhisker flashed in his mind. If he could come from such a bloody background and turn to a loyal warrior, why couldn’t they? “Have you thought about it enough that you won’t back out after the first moon?”

Rosefrost gazed at the two she-kits with maternal care and curiousity, her own daughters still young, and her having found Diamondheart as a rouge kit flashing back to her mind. Even so, she could see the slight scowl that Ivymask and Orchidnight sported, suspicious and unsure.
Bubblekit poked her head out of the nursery curiously, while Fluffkit bristled with hostility at the newcomers.
Diamondheart sat down, looking up at Earthstar, awaiting the decision.

Diamondheart gave a small nod, finding the kits' words to be believeable. He only hoped they'd truly brunt through and stay completely loyal if they truly planned to become Riverclan.

Earthstar nodded. "Very well, then. You seem old enough to be apprentices, so we'll start you there." He turned to address the Clan. "Let all cats old enough to swim gather!"

Ospreypaw jumped in surprise. Just like that? New denmates? She opened her mouth to call out, only to quiet herself as she thought about it. That meant there'd be less chores for her, right? Even if they were loners, she certainly enjoyed less chores.
Diamondheart gave a small smile of interest, looking up at Earthstar as he gave Tawny and Willow a nod of acceptance.
Foxripple lashed his tail wearily, as Owlwhisker happily gathered alongside Rosefrost and Smogstorm.
Orchidnight and Ivymask whispered to eachother as they flickered over to the new members of Riverclan.

Earthstar looked over the Clan. "Diamondheart has discovered these two outsiders on the edge of our camp. They claim they wish to join us and have thought about it for a while. Given their age, I see no reason to distrust them. They shall join as apprentices."
Icepath flicked her ear. Was Earthstar making the right choice?
Shellstream and Troutfang watched with interest.
Salmonpaw and Koipaw looked at each other. Were there going to be new apprentices?

Brookheart had only just returned to camp, and he siddled up to Icepath, blinking owlishly at the loners. He looked at his sister and whispered. "I...was not expecting this.."
