A frightened she-cat was pushed to the brink of the clearing. "Hey!" Windmist called to the group now surrounding the she-cat. She bounded over to the group, Mistheart dead on her heels. The group split as Windmist padded to the center of the circle. "Mistheart, go get Mothstar," she called without turning. Mistheart nodded, bounding toward the Leaders' Den. "Hello," she spoke timidly to the terrified she-cat. Her blue/black pelt was ruffled, still in surprise, Windmist bet. The white splotches on her back stood out well. Her green-aqua colored eyes were wide. She calmed down a bit as Windmist spoke softly to her. "Can you tell me where you came from?"

Faithpaw followed Windmist, padding quietly at her mentor's side. The apprentice decided it might be best to stay behind in the crowd as Windmist approached the strange new cat, peering between the moving pelts of her Clan mates to try and get a better view. The newcomer was stunningly beautiful, with an unusually blue coat flecked with white. Where had she come from? Faithpaw wondered.
Mothstar came out of the her immediately and bounded over to where it seemed all of SpringClan were gathered, Mistheart right at her tail. "Windmist!" She called over the cats, unable to spot her medicine cat. "Mistheart sent for me, what's going on here?" Pushing her way through the crowd, Mothstar caught a whiff of unfamiliar scent. She then found herself in the middle of a tight circle, staring into a pair of aqua green eyes. "Who are you?" She whispered.
Edit: "Who are you?" Hazelpaw cried out, dashing over to join the rest of SpringClan where they stood gathered around a strange midnight blue she-cat. He came to a stop beside Faithpaw and Faithpaw nearly swooned as their pelts brushed. When Hazelpaw showed her curious green eyes, she simply shook her head to tell him she had no idea what was going on, that she was just as confused as he was.

Mooneyes was at the edge of the group, her curiousity sparked from a tiny ember to a ranging flame when Mistheart went and got Mothstar, Creeping towards the edge, she caught a strong wiff of unfamilier scent, Shifting her legs from side to side, She peered over the heads of her clanmates, and caught sight of a hautingly beautiful cat. The scent wasn't anything that Mooneyes ever smelt before. Who are you? Mooneyes thought silently to herself. Sitting up tall to get a better view, Mooneyes waited.

The she-cat stood still. Windmist crept closer, her eyes still soft, and licked her forehead. The she-cat's fur lay flat again. "I'm S-Drench," she cut herself off to introduce herself in her new name. "Are you lost? You have a rogue name." Windmist spoke. Drench shook her head. "If I'm correct, my kit sister should be here." Drench spoke, looking at the murmuring eyes around her. Every pair of eyes whispered the same question Who? "Do you know her name?" Windmist, too, began to look around. Drench shook her head. "No, the two of us were kitty-pets. But she wouldn't remember me or that life now." A disappointed look crossed her face, upset that her sister doesn't know her. "Surely you remember what she looks like...?" Windmist asked, still looking around at the cats. She noticed Drench's eyes stop on a cat. "Her," she said, flicking her tail at Mistheart. "All white fur with pink eyes!" Even if I only got to see those pink eyes because of the stupid smaller twolegs that ran around pulling at us, I still recognize them anywhere! Mistheart's back straightened. "Me?" She asked timidly. Windmist flicked her tail, beckoning her forward. The cats parted and let her through. "This is Mistheart," Windmist explained. Drench's eyes were wide, holding back tears. "Mistheart," Drench repeated. "My, you've grown up so well, little sister! I only remember you when you were just a little kit! I believe you cats here call it 'two moons' old." Windmist nodded at this fact. She, too, was remembering how small the kit was. "I spoke to you every day, telling you about our father and mother. You would always purr when I mentioned their voices." Mistheart had been unsure of this new cat until now. "Wh... What happened?" She asked, wanting to know. "I took you out of the nest," Drench explained, glad she was finally getting through. "I didn't want you to lead the life I'd led for so long!" A deep burning passion grew in Drench's belly. She sighed and let it go; she was free from their clutches now. "Father helped me. He as a clan cat. But when I went to his clan, he was... gone. In a recent battle, they said." Tears began coming to both of their eyes. "And mother died giving birth to you." Mistheart padded over to Drench and curled next to her, their tails interlocking.

Mothstar watched this touching exchange with curious wide eyes. Though the two cats were completely different in pelt and eye color, they somehow resembled each other very strongly. Maybe it was in the way that they were built, or the way lightning seemed to crackle between the two of them as they stared at each other, but whatever it was, Mothstar was convinced that Mistheart and Drench really were siblings. She wanted to ask what the sisters were going to do now that they had found each other, wanted to ask whether Drench would be staying in SpringClan or returning to wherever she came from, whether Mistheart would be leaving SpringClan to join her sister. All of SpringClan were probably wondering these exact same questions, but their leader didn't want to ask them just yet. She didn't want to spoil the moment, and so took a step back to let the two sisters get to know each other.
"So that's where she came from!" Faithpaw hissed excitedly, immediately forgetting the fact that she was angry with Hazelpaw. "What?" Hazelpaw asked, coming to stand closer. He was glad to see that Faithpaw was still speaking to him, though he had no idea why she was angry with him in the first place. "Windmist was telling me about how she found Mistheart out in the forest when she was still two moons old. We were just talking about it and wondering where she came from! It's kind of funny how the answer walks right into camp at just the right moment, don't you think so?"

Windmist purred at the excitement in Faithpaw's voice. "So what are you going to do now?" Mistheart's voice rung through Windmist's thoughts. "I honestly hadn't even thought about it." Drench admitted. "Could she join SpringClan?!" Mistheart pounced the question on Mothstar like an anxious kit. "W-wait... join you here?" Drench's eyes glowed. This means I'll see my sister every day! But, this is how father died... But I can't return back to the nest, and I won't! A giant feud was going on in Drench's head. She followed Mistheart's gaze onto a beautiful, strong-looking cat beside Windmist; the leader. She waited for a reply.

Mothstar purred, "Of course, Mistheart! You know I could never turn down a cat, and especially not if she's your sister. Besides, if she's anything like you, I'd be glad to take her in!" Turning to Drench, she noticed that the loner looked a little unsure. "If that's what she wants, of course." The leader added hastily, not wanting to make it seem like Drench had no other option.
"Yes, very." Hazelpaw replied, already beginning to feel at ease. It was nice to be able to talk to Faithpaw again. Maybe Mistheart had been mistaken, she didn't seem hurt at all.
Faithpaw licked a paw and drew it over her ear. Hazelpaw's presence was already starting to make her insides melt like cold ice on a warm sunny day.

Drench grinned and Mistheart purred with all her might. "Yes! I'd love to!" "Thank you, Mothstar!" Mistheart bowed her head. "Yes, thank you!" Drench followed Mistheart's movements. Their two tails flicked happily. Windmist was purring contently. "Oh, Mothstar, doesn't Drench need a new Clan name?" Windmist pointed out.
((i'd prefer it to keep "drench" in it...))

((You may choose the name yourself. You can't use any of the loner leader endings just yet though, so you'll have to pick another one. Are you sure you want a Clan name, though? Usually, loners just keep their old names: Daisy, Brook, Millie, etc.))
"Ohh, yes!" Mothstar exclaimed, sitting up straight. "I'll do her ceremony right away!" With an eager flick of her tail, the leader got up and bounded over to the Birch Tree Stump, calling over her shoulder to address the loner. "Drench, I'll give you a couple of minutes to groom and make any other preparations. Join me beneath the Birch Tree Stump when you're ready and we can get started."
Faithpaw watched as her leader melted away from the crowd, deciding to follow her and get the first choice for a comfortable spot beneath the meeting place. "Come," She mewed to Hazelpaw, "Sit with me?"
((I'll do the ceremony once you give me her name.))

((HANG ON!!! Sorry, Windmist. Rave had not been on in so long, that I had forgotten Mothstar was out in the forest training with Mintpaw!! Can we just re-start from my post below, with Mistheart coming back and saying that she couldn't find Mothstar? She may also go out into the forest to fetch her if you wish. Ohh, this is going to be such a mess, I'm so sorry.. I didn't delete the posts though, I just stroked them out so that we could re-use them later on when Mothstar returns.))
"So that's where she came from!" Faithpaw hissed excitedly, immediately forgetting the fact that she was angry with Hazelpaw. "What?" Hazelpaw asked, coming to stand closer. He was glad to see that Faithpaw was still speaking to him, though he had no idea why she was angry with him in the first place.

Windmist purred at the excitement in Faithpaw's voice. "I can't find Mothstar!" Windmist turned and cocked her head. "Did she say she was training Mintpaw today?" She thought aloud, looking into the forest. "Should I fetch her?" Mistheart offered. Windmist shook her head. "She'll come back." Windmist pointed out. "Well, she might now like coming back to find a loner in the middle of her camp." Mistheart retorted back. Windmist's eyes widened. "Oh... Good point..." She almost stammered. Mistheart nodded and bounded into the forest, leaving the confused Drench in the middle of the field. "Wait! You stay here with your sister. I'll find Mothstar." Mistheart turned around and nodded, going back to sit next to Drench.

Faithpaw licked a paw and drew it over her ear. She looked at the two sisters and her heart swelled up almost immediately. Drench must have traveled so far to find her long lost sister, and Mistheart must be so proud of her, and glad that she finally knew where she came from. Hazelpaw's voice brought Faithpaw back to reality, his presence was already starting to make her insides melt like cold ice on a warm sunny day. The slender silver she-cat risked a glance at his face, and when she saw him smiling down at her, she could hardly breathe anymore. He was just so perfect.

Stormclaw padded up to sit next to Mistheart. "What is all the commotion?"He asked good naturally as he looked at the strange loner in front of him. He had just returned to camp. He had now Idea that the camp would be in an uproar. "I return to camp to find all my clan mates in a circle staring at some poor cat."He added jokingly as he licked one paw and swiped at his ear.

Mistheart was purring as Stormclaw stepped up. "This is my long-lost sister, Drench!" She explained happily. "And we're waiting for Windmist and Mothstar to return." She added, biting her lip. I hope this turns out okay. Drench bowed lightly at Stormclaw.

Stormclaw nodded his head. "Oh well that would make sense, I am Stormclaw deputy of Spring Clan it is nice to meet you Drench." He said flicking his tail to touch Mistheart's flank. "My guess is we are waiting for Mothstar to show up right." He stated amusement on his face. "She tends to be in other places when we need her." He added his voice light.
