The fox grins. "Hello, Riverclan. I am not a threat.”

“A fox, a cat-killer, says he is a threat? Sorry, not believing.”

“Well, I am over here, on Leafclan’s territory. They know me. In fact, I am part of the clan. Like Cloudpelt, the eagle who helped you chase off some intruders earlier. An eagle, another cat-killer. Neither of us kill cats. I kill prey for the clan,”

Joining us? Or just passing through?
I might join. I'm not sure yet though.

Tawnypelt here. I watch the fox. The instinct is to chase it away, but it’s just sitting there, across the thunderpath, just watching us. “Why are you here?” I ask.

“I’m patrolling, just making sure there are no problems. Sorry I worried you”, he says, leaving, moving further into Leafclan territory.

Moonbeam here. We keep watching until the fox is out of sight. Tawnypelt says “I’m going to report this to Scarstar. You two continue the patrol, making sure he doesn’t come back. Not trusting a fox, no matter what clan he says he’s in.” And she leaves, moving quickly.

Thorntail here. I am telling stories to the kits when Tawnypelt returns. “What is wrong?” I ask. “Where is your patrol?”

“I left them to continue the patrol. We found a fox at the thunderpath, said he was part of Leafclan. A fox in Leafclan? Can you imagine it?”

“It goes along with Cloudpelt, a male eagle, and Darkmist, a friendly she-demon.”

“Silverback told some of us about them. They are beings capable of powerful abilities we would think impossible. Usually, demons are nasty beings, but Darkmist is good and helpful. You met Embershine. Bramblestar adopted him as a kit, and he has been nothing but faithful. Your fears are understandable, but he’s a friend. Return to your patrol; I’ll tell Scarstar about your meeting when she returns from the gathering. She’ll be glad to know Leafclan watches that side of the territory.” She nods and leaves.

The gathering. Leafstar here. The meeting is about over, with no surprises for any to report. Strange to only have three with clans now, with Shadowclan absorbed by Darkclan, one clan not welcome here. I see new cats here, sitting with Riverclan. “Am I seeing things or do we have visitors here?”

Scarstar here. I answer. “They are from Leafclan, and wished to address the gathering. They have a request. Will you hear them? Leafstar? Miststar?”

Miststar here. “I have no objections. Leafstar?”
He nods, and I call to the group of strangers. “Who speaks for you?”

A cream-colored she-cat steps forward. “I am Bramblestar, leader of Leafclan. I have a request to make. Traditionally, there have been 4 clans at these gatherings. Today, there are only 3. We are the fourth, if you will allow it. Our territory is close to that of the other clans, we keep to our side of the thunderpath, hunt on our territory, have proven to be good neighbors, and have come to your assistance when needed. We would like to join you as the fourth clan, an equal at these gatherings. Will you allow it?”

Scarstar here. We three leaders confer. A fourth clan, one who has proven they will come to our aid, could be a good thing with the powerful Darkclan out there. The other two nod in agreement, and will inform their clans, as I will inform Riverclan. I say to Miststar and Leafstar “They have some unusual clanmates. Go easy on meeting; not all who seem like a threat are.”
It is agreed. I say to Bramblestar “On the next full moon, you are invited to bring members of your clan here, and to take your place as one of the four clans. Welcome.” She nods her thanks, and all leave.

Thorntail here. I see Scarstar returning, and I go over to tell her Tawnypelt’s report. She listens, finally saying “Glad to hear it. They’ve been good friends to us.”
“I wonder if it might be a good idea to have a meeting between the two clans, just so all know who they are, so there’ll be no fears. I thought Smallflame might want to set it up. Maybe invite someone from the other clans as well, so they’ll all know who they are.”
“They have been accepted to be the fourth clan at gatherings, but a meeting before that can’t hurt. Smallflame and his apprentice should go. He is welcome in Leafclan, and the other clans respect him.”

Smallflame here. Hunting has been good, and there is plenty of prey. Plenty on the prey pile. I paw out a good-sized vole, and crouch to eat. A shadow; Scarstar comes over.

"Eat while I talk. Leafclan came to the meeting, and asked to be part of the Four Clans. We said yes. Problem is, they have some strange clanmates, beings we would see as catkillers. You know Leafclan. You see our problem?”

“That’s where you come in. You and Nightpaw will go to the other two clans, select a few of their members to go with you, and visit Leafclan. Let them meet Leafclan, get to know who they are so they can tell their clanmates. We want to avoid trouble.”

“Finish your meal, first, and see that your apprentice eats. You might want to start soon after.”

I nod, and resume eating, as she leaves, heading toward the elder’s den. This little trip might be interesting.

Nightpaw here. I’m wrestling with Spotpaw, when we see Smallflame come over. “Nightpaw, we have something to take care of” Smallflame says. “I need you to go eat before we go. Find another wrestling partner, Spotpaw.” “Yes, Smallflame” he says. “Maybe Firepaw. He needs the practice.” He leaves. Smallflame walks with me as I head for the prey pile. “Scarstar wants us to visit the other clans. I’ll explain more on the way. Meet me at the entrance when you’re done.”

Nightpaw here. We've left the camp, and Smallflame just finished telling me the mission. “How many do we bring from each clan?” I ask. “Just a few” he says. “We’re not invading, and we don’t want to frighten Leafclan. I’ll ask the leaders to select representatives. First, we go to Windclan.”

Nightpaw here. I’ve joined patrols toward Windclan before, but this is the 1st time I’ll set paws on their territory. Yes, I’m nervous, but I trust Smallflame. He stops and turns to me.
