A New Leader

Stormcloud climbed up the Sky Vine, this time with confidence. He wasn't afraid of being Rainclan's new leader. I am prepared he told himself.

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here beneath the Sky Vine for a clan meeting!" he yowled.

The cats gathered around the tabby tom, staring up at him with gleaming eyes.

"I have decided to become the leader of Rainclan. Will anyone object to my decision?"

The cats fell silent. It seemed like the only noise breaking the silence was the wind howling in the air. A few cats shuffled their feet uncomfortably, but they remained silent.

"Thank you." Stormcloud bowed his head. "Meeting dismissed."
