Crowdusk had fallen asleep next to the moonstone, and now he walked with the cats with the stars tangled in their pelts. His black pelt quivered as he waited, and pushed through the trees to the clearing. There sat nine cats, each waiting for him.
The first cat walked forward. It wasn't hard for Crowdusk to recognise her. It was his mate, Poppyclaw. He nuzzled her gently as she sat next to him, purring. "Are you ready to receive your nine lives my love?" Poppyclaw asked him. Crowdusk gave his mate a nod, and she touched noses with him.. "For your first life I give you honesty. Your clan is cunning, but you need to be open and honest to them about your feelings..." Poppyclaw said, before making way for the next cat.
Here stood his majestic father, Serpentclaw. He was a large black tom with dark green eyes, and a grey stripe going down his back. "Crowdusk, my son. I am sorry I could not witness you growing up. I want you to know I watched you every step of the way." Serpentclaw said, touching noses with Crowdusk. "With this life, I give you courage. You are young, use it to face up to the elder leaders." Serpentclaw said, before moving away next to Poppyclaw.
The next cat was a small thing, a tiny little kit who had died upon birth. His first born, Rookkit. She touched noses with him, her blue eyes looking up at him enderaingly. "Father, I knew you never got to hold me and take care of me, and.. I wish fate could have been more kind." The kit said. She had become wisened in Starclan. "Father, I give you strength. The cats of the other clans are strong, but no near as strong as your clan shall become." Rookkit said, bowing her head and running over to the others, the stars in her black pelt.
"My son..." Fishtail smiled at her son as she padded over, and the two cats touched noses. "Crowdusk, I give you charisma. Use it to wiggle our clan out of tight spots, and to keep the other clans in line." The siamese cat purred, laying her head upon her sons shoulder. Crowdusk had never met his parents, and this was so wonderful.
"Crowdusk," It was his mentor, Mothface. "I see you have grown into a strong warrior." He chuckled, before his face turned more serious, and he touched noses with his apprentice. "With this life, Crowdusk, I give you thoughtfulness. Desicions will be hard, make them well."
"Crowdusk, I give you stamina. These nights will be long, and your clan near to giving up... I hope it serves you well." His first apprentice, Darknesspaw spoke up, touching noses with her mentor. "I'm sorry... I should have listened to you. Orangesky was a bad influence... Look where it got me hah!" Darknesspaw managed a smile before moving away.
"Crowdusk." It was Flightwing. She had died of an illness a few moons earlier. "I bestow upon you justice. Pray that your clan is just and right, and use this well." His second apprentice said, touching noses with him gently, and moving away. Now only Bearstar stood in front of the tom. She was a huge brown tabby, but who's death had come as a shock to the whole clan.
"Crowdusk, my loyal deputy, strong warrior, brilliant father." Bearstar said, her eyes soft, her pelt tangled with stars. She touched noses with her deputy, and smiled. "With this last life, I give you dominance, your continuing faith in StarClan, the ability to make good choices, and the ability to lead your clan properly!" Bearstar roared. "I also give you your new leader name. Crowdusk. Your old life is no more, you have nine new ones. From this point onwards, you are Crowdusk no more. Crowstar is your new name!" The stars echoed with Crowstar's new name, and his ears rang.
"Thank you Bearstar! I will not fail you!" Crowstar roared as he woke up.
ooc- done like you asked :b
