*pads up to Skyrock* LET ALL CAT OLD ENOUGH TO CATCH THEIR OWN PREY, GATHER HERE TOGETHER. she yowled. WE HAVE WAITED TO LONG FOR A DEPUTY, SO I WILL CHOOSE ONE NOW.

Tigerwind's ears flicked back toward his leader. He turned around, a few drops of water from the river sticking to his fur, then stood. Muscles rippled under a pelt just beginning to thicken for the cold of leafbare as Tigerwind stretched, reaching out his paws and arching his back. Wind whistled through the canyon, bringing a chill and a scent of frost and making the tom shiver. Leafbare was practically upon them; fortunately, the canyon walls protected the camp from snow. However, there was snow between the camp and the river that the warrior now padded through, following his earlier tracks through the whiteness. The tabby tom sat down, wrapping his tail around his paws. Brown ears twitched forward to listen.

[Please make your posts longer, Leafstar. It makes things more interesting. The only time you should make short posts is when you have no muse. ]

_{Leafstar took a deep breath. The new deputy will be Sunshadow. I hope that Sunshadow will be a loyal and hard working deputy for times to come. She yowled. Leafstar had hoped to make a good choice. After all, They had lived without a deputy for many moons. Now she wouldn't have to do the extra work, adding that leaf-bare was coming. She would need more work an loyalty to make sure that her clan mates survived. I sure hope i made the right choice. she thought. I hope SunShadow doesn't turn out like that sinister Tigerstar. She shook the thought away. How could she think of such a thing about a kind cat, one of her clanmates? she realized that she was still on the Skyrock, and cats were looking at her, expecting her to say something. Quickly she hopped off and started cheering for Sunshadow to hide her embarrassment.}

The tortoisesell she-cat dipped her head as Leafstar announced her as the new deputy. Sunshadow padded up to the leader and their noses met. Closing her eyes lightly, she licked Leafstar's shoulder in return. Thank you, thank you sooo very much. i will treat my strengths with honor and serve my clan well. She nodded and kept her head high, but not higher than the leader's. She new how to except this, how to be honored but dont act spoiled or too happy.

^{I did make a good choice. thought Leafstar. She touched noses with Sunshadow and was surprised to feel the stregnth and pride beyond the she-cat's fur. You are weclome Sunshadow. she mewed. I knew you would be the right cat which is why I chose you. I know you will be strong and loyal to the clan you serve. She then leaped into her den.}
