Blackfoot's POV

Greif clawed away at Blackfoot's heart.

His father was dead.

He didn't even get the chance to say goodbye.

Fernshade rested her head on his shoulder and Flintfang wrapped his tail around them.

Their mother was sobbing in Cedarstar's fur.

"Will you be okay?" Someone asked.

Blackfoot turned around to see Raggedpelt, his face full of concern.

Blackfoot nodded, trying to swallow a lump in his throat.

"Yea, We have our Clanmates,we'll be fine" he said.

Raggedpelt nodded, then he and Yellowfang walked off.

He turned back to Cedarstar, he bowed his head and buried his face in his Father's dark gray fur.

Goodbye father, May StarClan light your path always, and please watch over us.

***************************

As the moon began to fall and the sun began to rise, Raggedpelt/star and Yellowfang returned.

He jumped onto the High-rock and spoke.

"I now must choose a deputy for ShadowClan, I say these words before StarClan, so that the spirits of our ancestors may hear and approve my choice." He paused.

"Foxheart, will you do me the honor of being my deputy?" He asked the ginger she-cat.

"I will Raggedstar" she gleamed.

Blackfoot held in a gasp.

She's the last cat you'd want to be deputy.

He turned to Russetfur and the look on her face told him she was thinking the same thing.

"Foxheart! Foxheart!" The clan cheered.

Blackfoot did not though.

When the clan died down Blackfoot over heard Brokenpaw and Deerpaw talking.

"Wow your father is the leader of the clan" Deerpaw meowed.

"Yeah," Brokenpaw chirped.

"I bet he wishes I was a Warrior already so I could be his deputy!"

"I don't think so" Tanglepaw retorted crushingly.

As Brokenpaw bristled, Fernshade brushed his shoulder with the tip of her tail.

"It won't be long now," she meowed.

"If you keep practicing the way you are."

Blackfoot nodded to her.

His sister was gentle and could ease a problem with only her soft words.

****************************

The Elders buried Cedarstar and Blackfoot walked over to Russetfur.

"Are you alright?" She asked.

"Yea, I need a little sleep" he yawned.

She gave a little smile and they headed to the Warriors den.

They laid down in their nest and sleep quickly comusmed Blackfoot.
