Whiskerstar stepped away, his eyes calm. He flicked his tail and the WindClan cats parted to reveal StarClan's RiverClan territory. Two blue eyes blinked from the shadows, and a dark gray tabby padded across the border. He was young, and his muscled rippled beneath his pelt.
Slowly, the former leader padded over and stopped in front of the she-cat. "Thorntooth." He meowed, his expression unreadable. He suddenly touched his nose to her's and whispered. "With this life I give you a strong memory, so that you may remember once again those in your past, and love them dearly, even if they have caused you harm."
Snakestar stepped back, and his eyes met Thorntooth's for a heartbeat. Then the tom disappeared into the shadows once more.
Whiskerstar gave her a nod. "Skystream made a good choice in you. I hail you by your new name, Thornstar. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of WindClan. 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 cats started to cheer. "Thornstar! Thornstar!"

Thorntooth, now Thornstar, looked at Snakestar longingly as he disappeared back into the shadows. Now, another feeling that took place in her mind. She nodded to Whiskerstar. "I'll use these lives well to protect my clan," she meowed, startkng to slowly slip back into the waking world, her remaining eye closing.

Whiskerstar nodded. "May all the power of StarClan go with you, Thornstar."

She dipped her head, and woke up. The stinging in her eye and other wounds were healed, and she arose with a new authority and power.
Lilypool awoke as well. "Well done, Thornstar." She meowed, dipping her head.
"We need to go, fast." She meowed, urgency in her tone. "We need to visit some allies first,"

Mothstorm and Pinefoot padded down to the Moonpool, their ears and eyes alert.
When they neared the water, Mothstorm looked at her companion and nodded.
Both cast touched their noses to the icy water, and fell asleep.

Pinefoot blinked open his green eyes. Mothstorm appeared beside him.
They were still at the Moonpool, but they were alone.
"This is StarClan." Mothstorm meowed. "We will wait."
------------
Eventually, cats started to appear. Mothstorm recognized Sandyfall, Tigerstar, Twistedstar, and her mate, Oakstripe.
The golden she-cat's face filled with sorrow.
Pinefoot stepped forward as Ravenstar came into view. "StormClan has been destroyed." He meowed. "We are without leader."
Ravenstar purred. "One of you will be the leader."
"How will we tell?" Mothstorm meowed, tail flicking.
Twistedstar narrowed his eyes. "It should be my choice, surely?"
Ravenstar turned toward the former leader. "A decision between your apprentice and your kit?" He shook his head. "The decision is not for you."
"Then who?" Pinefoot demanded.
Ravenstar raised his tail. "Silence, Pinefoot. The decision is Sandyfall's."
"Mine...?" Sandyfall meowed. "How could that be?"
Twistedstar growled. "Just get on with it."
--------
After much thought, Sandyfall raised her voice so that ever cat could hear.
"The new leader of StormClan is Mothstorm."

(I hope Cherri doesn't mind if I rp one of her characters)
Mothstorm purred, lifting her chin. "I will serve StormClan well, and I will use all my lives to destroy BloodClan."
Pinefoot looked away, ears flattening.
Ravenstar padded forward, touching his nose to Mothstorm's. "With this life I give you a strong body, so that you may come back to life after even the worst injuries." He meowed.
Mothstorm felt cold, then warm, like the sun. Her body felt amazing, like she could run to the Mountains and back and still not be tired.
A beautiful orange tabby cat padded forward, green eyes shining. She touched noses with the StormClan she-cat, having to bend down because she was much taller. "I am Foxstar, former leader of RiverClan. I am Tigerstar's sister, and share blood with Leopard. All the Clans must bond together to defeat BloodClan by having leaders from every Clan give you a life. I give you a life of courage, so that you will never cower to Leopard's and BloodClan's ways."
Mothstorm closed her eyes, feeling as if all her fears were no longer anything to her. She also saw herself training as a RiverClan cat, and knew she could swim now if she tried. "Thank you Foxstar." She meowed. "StormClan owes RiverClan greatly."
But the ginger she-cat had already disappeared. In her place was a tall, muscular, golden tom. "I am Lionstar of ThunderClan." He meowed. "I was once Lionblaze, and I was able to fight without being harmed. In this life I pass my skill in fighting down to you, so you can match a BloodClan cat strike for strike." He growled.
Mothstorm's claws suddenly itched for battle, for digging her claws into fur and tearing it apart. She enjoyed the feeling, grinning. ThunderClan determination edged itself into her mind, a sudden love for the forest appearing in her heart as well.
Lionstar nodded with approval, then flicked his tail and padded back into the rankings of cats. Mothstorm then noticed that all six Clans were mixed together, eyes hungry for revenge on BloodClan. And it was her job to stop them.
A cream-colored tom with blue eyes came up to Mothstorm. Eggstar. He quickly touched his cold nose to her's. "SkyClan is independent." He meowed. "But we cannot deny that we approve of BloodClan's destruction. I give you a life so that you may know wrong from right." Eggstar mewed swiftly. "Use it to help the Clans that side with BloodClan now to know where their heart should truly lie."
The cream tom quickly padded away, and it was as if he had never been there at all. Mothstorm felt SkyClan's strength and agility flowing into her limbs, and she knew she could convince Fernstar of ThunderClan to join her side.
Five more to go. I still need one from WindClan and ShadowClan. Mothstorm thought.
Suddenly a massive dark brown tabby tom with icy cold blue eyes padded up to Mothstorm, his muscles rippling beneath his pelt. "I am Tigerstar, once called Tigerfur. I was a legend in BloodClan, and I helped defeat the Clans in the first Great Battle. I killed many cats. But I was given a second chance to believe in StarClan, and that is what I have done. With this life I give you ShadowClan's skill and the ability to be dauntless like I once was." He touched his nose to her's, and Mothstorm entered his mind, seeing him kill Mistystar, Graydawn, and many Clan cats, but then also giving up his nine lives to save Clan cats at a gathering. She also felt ShadowClan's power, and she took it all in.
Tigerstar backed away, and Mothstorm waited to see who her WindClan leader would be.

Ashstar appeared from the crowd after Tigerstar, her gray pelt bright and her clear eyes sparkling. "I am Ashstar, former leader of Windclan. My blood runs in all of the clans, including Bloodclan. Even though we are family, what Bloodclan has done to us in unforgivable." She paused, to stare amongst the vast ranks of cats. "With this life, I give you speed. You willl need it for when the time comes to battle. Bloodclan fights fast, but you will be faster." As she spoke, she touched her nose to Mothstorm's.

Mothstorm gasped as her calf muscles strengthened, and she dipped her head. "Thank you, Ashstar."
Oakstripe was the next cat to come, sadness filling his face. He touched his nose to his former mate's. "I give you a life for love, although it is already strong within you. Love your Clan, and your allies."
Mothstorm purred, and her heart swelled for this cat and her kits.
The cats then parted to reveal a Fiery orange tom with green eyes. He padded up. "I am Firestar of ThunderClan. I led the Clans to defeat BloodClan once, as you shall do." They touched noses. "I give you a life of spirit, so that your faith in StarClan may be as strong as the power that BloodClan has."
He nodded, and padded away.
Mothstorm felt something appear inside of her, giving her the power of StarClan, of all the Clans.
Finally, Twistedstar appeared, his foot healed. He purred. "Mothstorm, you have come a long way. You will lead the Clans to BloodClan's destruction well."
The former Leader's eyes clouded. "They are coming for ShadowClan."
He shook his head and touched his nose to his daughter's. "I give you a life for hope. It will guide you in even the hardest of times. It did for me."
Mothstorm suddenly felt something inside of her she had never felt before. It made her stronger, wiser, and she knew she would never fear BloodClan again.
"There is only one thing stronger than fear." Mothstorm meowed. "Hope."
Twistedstar rose to his full height. "I hail you by your new name, Mothstar. Your old life is no more. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of StormClan. 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."
"Mothstar! Mothstar!"

As the cheering died away, Tallstar padded forward. "Mothstar, you must go find Thornstar, and she will help you get the other Clans to come to the ShadowClan camp. This is when you will attack BloodClan, and destroy them."
Mothstar dipped her head, and her and Pinefoot came back to the living world.
"We must go."
The two cats raced for The WindClan camp.
