Goldenstar smiled to herself."You were always energetic, but also very lazy at times. Everytime someone would go hunting, you would brazenly follow them until someone had to bring you back." She purred happily."And it would seem that even as a kit, you had an ability to make us warriors happy." Goldenstar looked out into the water.

Wildpaw purred."Really? I don't remember that." She said."I'm glad you're here,Golenstar.You and Rainstream are the closest things to a mother I have."

Rainstream went limp "alright, alright i give-" she felt him relax his guard and on the word "-up" she kicked upwards and got out from under him then swiped at him with her paw.

Goldenstar purred happily as soon as Wildpaw stopped speaking, happy to know that she was seen as a mother-figure."Well, that is what we are here for." She casually strolled over to Wildpaw, and sat her paw gently on her forehead."Now, let us go meet up with Rainstream and Fallenleaf, shall we?"

Fallenleaf groaned, "i can't believe i fell for that!"

Wildpaw nodded,purring."Okay,let's go!" She said.As they walked,Wildpaw gazed around her at the forest,ears twitching at every sound."Goldenstar? Is my mother in Starclan?" She asked suddenly.

Goldenstar smiled at Wildpaw's enthusiasm. The apprentice reminded Goldenstar of a much younger version of herself. As she turned around and started to make her way over to Fallenleaf and Rainstream, she occasionally looked back at Wildpaw to make sure she was alright. Her ear twitched, and then something sudden happened; Wildpaw had asked about her mother. Goldenstar stopped, turned around, and nodded her head."Yes, all of our fallen warriors are with Starclan. They look down on us, watching over us, and protect us." She purred, and then closed her eyes."I am more than sure that Shadowstar and your mother are talking about how proud they are right now."

Rainstream purred in amusement, "just admit i'm smarter than you"

Wildpaw's ears twitched as she listened to her leader speak."You think so? My mother and Shadowstar are proud of me?" She asked happily."I'm happy.I'll make sure they can keep being proud.And you,too." She added brightly.

Goldenstar nodded her head, amused with Wildpaw and her determination."Yes." She looked up to the sky, and then shifted her gaze back to Wildpaw, and purred yet again in amusement."Well, your spirit is quite determined to shine among us warriors. Maybe you could light the way to Rainstream and Fallenleaf."

Fallenleaf swiped at her playfully, "show some respect for your deputy!"

Wildpaw puffed out her chest."I can do that!" She said proudly.She stopped and scented the air.It only took a few seconds to find the scents of her clanmates."Oh,I've found them! This way,Goldenstar!" She said,setting off in the direction of the scent.

Rainstream ducked her head, "oh great, powerful deputy, forgive me"
