Silverfrost walked quickly down the path to the Moonriver with the medicine cat, Ivysong. The recent events came to surface in her thoughts.

Ivysong walked slowly out of the leaders den with a look of sadness on her face.

"Well?" asked Silverfrost, although she already guessed the answer

"She's gone," Ivysong said "Seastar is dead."

Silverfrost hated sickness. It had taken their leader away from them. It had taken lots of cats this leafbare.

"We're here," said Ivysong stopping next to a slow flowing river that seemed to glow in the moonlight.

"Alright then." said Silverfrost "How do I do visit Starclan?"

"Just lick up a few drops," answered Ivysong "And then you just fall asleep."

Silverfrost did as she was told and tried her best to get comfortable on the grass. It wasn't very hard as the grass was soft and she slowly fell asleep and prepared for her meeting with Starclan

"Welcome Silverfrost," said a familiar voice.

"Seastar," exclaimed Silverfrost "I am so happy to see you!"

"I'm glad to see you as well Silverfrost," said Seastar "But now is not the time for chit chat, it is time for you to receive your nine lives."

Silverfrost looked beyond her leader and out to the other cats. More cats than she could count stood behind Seastar. Some were familiar, others were not. Young, old, big, small. The crowd of faces seemed to go on forever.

A young warrior stepped forward.

Brightstripe was one of the cats that had fallen due to the sickness. So many good cats had gone.

"With this life I give you endurance," said Dawnstripe "Use it so that you can withstand anything."

Brightstripe walked forward and put her nose on Silverfrost's. Silverfrost felt like she was slowly being torn apart and placed back together again. She to yowl in pain when something stopped her. Brightstripe walked a away, and in her place stood Otterpaw, her first apprentice. Otterpaw had fallen into the river when it was at its fullest. Contrary to his namesake, Otterpaw couldn't swim. Needless to say what had happened.

"With this life I give you the gift of caring" said Otterpaw "Use it to have a reason to look after everyone and protect them with your life. Or in your case, lives."

Otterpaw pressed her nose to Silverfrost and she felt herself getting hot. It started as just a warm feeling but then it started to get hotter and hotter until it left her gasping for breath. Otterpaw walked away as another cat took her place. It was her second apprentice, Splashheart, stepped up. She had died in the sickness as well and it was wonderful to see her again. However, before she could meow a greeting, Splashheart started to speak

"With this life I give you the ability to never give up," said Splashheart "Use it so that even in times of darkness, you will always know that there will be a better ending."

This time, instead of the pain from earlier, Silverfrost

felt confidence. She felt sure that at the end of any battle, a glorious victory would await her. Silverfrost looked back up to find her friend from Sunclan. Snowfeather had been one of Silverfrost's close friends and had died of kitting a few moons back.

"With this life I give you a positive attitude." said Snowfeather "Use this gift to make sure that you stay positive. It will have a great influence on those around you."

As Snowfeather touched her nose to Silverfrost, she almost felt like she was floating with joy. She looked down just to make sure all paws were on the ground, and saw the next cat. A small kitten had taken her friends place.

This must be her little sister, Whitekit. She had died when they were both very little.

"With this life I give you strength," said Whitekit "Use it to have the strengths to lead your clan."

Silverfrost had to bend over so her sister could give her her next life. Like the last life, this one had no pain in it. Just the feeling of strength and power. Whitekit bounced away and someone else took her place. This time it was a cat Silverfrost did not recognize. However, based on her memory of kit tales, she guessed it was Sandstar, the leader before Seastar.

"With this life I give you the ability to focus," said Sandstar "Use it to keep your mind on what's happening and to not get distracted."

Silverfrost felt like a thousand cats were attacking her all at once. The last few lives had left unprepared and she feel to the ground. As Sandstar walked away, another cat took her place. Shellheart was the legendary strongest warrior in Streamclan. However, somehow in a battle another warrior outwitted him.

"With this life I give you intelligence," said Shellheart "Use it so that you will always remember, even the strongest can be outsmarted."

Silverfrost felt the claws just like earlier but this time with out the strength. Shellheart walked away and someone else came up. Randomtail stepped up. This cat was here because the author had run out of ideas and hoped that no one would notice if she put this here.

"With this life I give you randomness," said Randomtail "Use it so you know that the cow says moo."

Silverfrost felt like she was going crazy for this life. She felt random. She looked up to see Seastar.

"With this life I give you good understanding," said Seastar "Use it to understand the mistakes or choices that others make."

This time, Silverstar didn't really feel anything. The life giving was over.

"I hail you by your new name, Silverstar." said Seastar "Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of Streamclan. Defend it well, care for young and old, honor your ancestors and the traditions of the warrior code live each life with pride and dignity."

The chorus of the Starclan cats rose up chanting her new name

"Silverstar, Silverstar, Silverstar."
