O L I V E H E A R T
SHE-CAT - RAVINECLAN deputy
Loyalty is all that matters now
Oliveheart didn't really say much as she headed home to camp from the border battle with Onyxstar and Inksplash that had gotten her apprentice, given the honorable name Novaflight, killed. She carried her bloodied body on her back, and once inside camp laid her down carefully on the snowy surface on the ravine's floor.
She watched Ravinestar trudge past her and into his den immediately. She flattened her ears at him, hoping he was going to hold a meeting soon and tell the clan exactly what they were going to do to defend themselves against their radical enemies.
Notes: This takes place after the border battle with ObsidianClan in which Novaflight was killed. This is when Oliveheart will demand at some point a retaliation against ObsidianClan to defend RavineClan's safety.

| Tigershade walked side by side with Oliveheart helping her carry Novaflight. Once inside of camp and she had been carefully set on the snowy ground he turned and padded into his den. When he came back out he carried several leaves in his jaws. He sat down beside her and began to slowly chew the leaves and rub them into her fur. "This should not have happened. You were too young to have been killed." He whispered softly to her as he rubbed the herbs into her fur. Looking up at Oliveheart he could see the rage boiling in her and knew she wouldn't let this lie. Part of him was glad that she wouldn't. Another part feared the thought of war where more cats could be killed or even injured. But if there was war he would do his best to be ready.

OLIVEHEARTOliveheart sighed as she contemplated whether to confront Ravinestar or not. Her paws ached to rush into his den after him. 'I cannot stand not knowing if he will counter-attack ObsidianClan!' she thought angrily, thrusting herself forward and racing across camp. She left Novaflight's body with Tigershade, he would know what to do. For now, she had something she needed to do. Once inside the den, Oliveheart called for Ravinestar. "Leader? I must speak with you. Do you plan on attacking ObsidianClan for what they've done to Novaflight? For what they've done to us?!" she demanded assertively. Maybe it wasn't her place to be so fiery with him, but she knew it had to be done. RAVINESTAR
The stress upon Ravinestar's shoulders was immense. He had to choose between doing nothing and hoping for the best and sending his cats into a war that would certainly get more of his clanmates killed! He had a feeling he knew what had to be done, but... something like that had never been done before. The clans had never been at war. So much was changing and it was ripping him apart... all clans were endangered at this rate, ObsidianClan was a sinister enemy. His deputy came bursting into his den and demanded to know his answer to whether there would be a war or not. He noted her tone, but understood her reasoning. Her apprentice had just been murdered. "I understand your feelings, Oliveheart," said Ravinestar calmly. "But these things must be thought on carefully. You are headstrong, you want the best for your clan; I see that... but please, give me time, I will decide momentarily."Oliveheart left the den, a scowl on her face. Ravinestar sat alone and thought hard, then exited the leader's den and stood upon the High Ledge. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey gather here below the High Ledge for a clan meeting!" he called.

Tigershade looked up as he watched Oliveheart dart after Ravinestar. He sighed and he had a feeling what she was going to say. She wants war. Their whole clan would once they learned what had happened. He shook his head and continued rubbing the herbs into her fur. He lost himself in his work when he finally finished you would think Novaflight was just asleep. He had cleaned all the blood off of her fur coat and made sure her paws hid the gaping wound in her neck. Just as he sighed and took a step back he heard Ravinestar's call to gather. He turned and padded closer to hear what was going on.
HONEYVOICE
Honeyvoice lay curled up in the nursery around her kits. She lay sleeping soundly dreaming of watching her kittens grow strong and brave just like their father. A commotion from outside of the nursery woke her. She hissed angrily thinking it might wake her kittens up. Slowly and carefully she crept out of the nursery and into the clearing where here clan gathered. "What's going on? Are you trying to wake Turtlekit, Applekit, Cloudkit, Whitekit, Lark-kit and Sagekit?" She had six kittens, six that was a lot of kittens to take care of. Her last one looked exactly like his father which is why she had named him after Sagefur. As she finished speaking she saw Ravinestar and cats beginning to gather beneath him. Opps she hadn't realized he had called the cats to gather. She wondered what was going on, she had yet to see Novapaw's body hidden in the shadows by Tigershades den.

OLIVEHEART
The deputy of RavineClan was pleased when Ravinestar finally called a meeting. She hoped that she would hear what she, and every cat once they found out what happened, would want. It would be dangerous, but wiping out the threat of ObsidianClan would be worth everything, to protect the future of the clans. She gathered below on a lower rock, gazing out at the gathering cats.
RAVINESTAR
Ravinestar began to speak once enough cats had gather. "I have terrible news for all of you, I regret to announce," he hung his head. "ObsidianClan have attacked us. Novapaw was murdered during a battle with them involving her, Oliveheart, Inksplash and Onyxstar the leader himself. I gave her her warrior name, Novaflight, before she joined StarClan."
The gray leader let that sink in for a moment, then went on. He held a confident pose, his gaze strong. "I have decided what our retaliation will be... we will not attack them, but we will play defenseless for a while so that they do not exert as much effort to beat us in their next attack, which will give us the upper hand so that we can drive them off for good."
OLIVEHEART
Oliveheart's fur bristled and her eyes flashed with fury. "Mousebrain!" she dared call her leader, in front of all those cats. "Who knows what could happen between now and the next attack from ObsidianClan! They killed Novaflight, my apprentice; they killed Sagefur... how many cats are you going to let die because you're too hesitant to start a war?"

Sagekit
Sagekit reached out for his mom but felt nothing but empty cold air. Blinking open his eyes he looked around and yawn. Then he heard cats talking outside of the nursery. "Hey guys," his voice squeaked. He nudged Whitekit who was sleeping beside him then went on and Nudged Turtlekit and Lark-kit before stumbling to his feet and headed to the entrance of the nursery. He poked his head out of the nursery he blinked at the bright light. He's never been outside of the nursery until now. It took him a bit for his eyes to adjust. When they finally did he saw a cat lying in the shade. She wasn't getting up was she asleep? Then he heard a cat say someone named Novapaw had been murdered and that she had been given the name Novaflight before dying. Was that Novaflight?
Lark-Kit
Lark-kit groaned as Sagekit poked her in the side. Looking up she smiled excitedly and she quickly darted out of the nursery after her brother. She emerged just in time to hear something about a cat being murdered. She whimpered softly and quickly darted to her mom's side.
Turtlekit
Turtlekit rolled over ignoring her siblings until she heard Lark-kit tell Sagekit he wasn't allowed to leave the nursery. Grumbling angrily she quickly followed them. She grabbed at Lark-kits tail hissing angrily when she inched. She stomped outside and saw her brother staring at something. She went over and grabbed him hissing angrily. "Your not supposed to be out here."
Honeyvoice
Honeyvoice gasped as Ravinestar told them the news. Her eyes grew even bigger as she felt a tiny bundle hurdle at her. She looked down in shock and she realized her kit's had woken up. She curled her tail around Lark-kit protectively. How could this be happening? As Ravinestar said they would not attack but play weak and let Obsidianclan attack again she couldn't believe it. She was about to cry out but Oliveheart beat her to it. OLIVEHEART IS RIGHT! We can't just sit here and wait for them attack again? What if they attack the camp next time?" Her eyes were huge with fear for her kits. She couldn't loose them to.

cloudkit The fact that Cloudkit had been listening into the whole clan meeting was one thing. But it was a whole other story when Sagekit, Lark-kit and Turtlekit staggered out of the Nursery. The grey kit's white markings stand out against his pelt like blood against snow, and races out of the den right after his siblings. He first notes his mother, curling her tail around Lark-kit and shouting at Ravinestar. War? War hadn't seemed like the worst thing, but Ravinestar apparently thought otherwise. The thought of evil cats attacking his clan made him shiver and his burning amber eyes looked up at Ravinestar with curiosity. War had seemed like the best option to keep the clan happy, but his leader looked like he wasn't happy about it. He watches with amusement as Turtlekit stalks over to Sagekit, trotting over to them both. "Are any of us supposed to be out here, anyway?" he points out to Turtlekit, raising an eyebrow.

Silverfang walked to with the others so she could listen to Ravinestar. Her head was now bowed and her heart was swallowed with regret.Listening to the news Silverfang then spoke with Honeyvoice and Oliveheart. "Oliveheart is right here. We can't ignore what's happening and just play defenseless as we don't know what will happen till their next attack.We can't just let Obsidianclan kill our clan-mates!" She said and then sat down.
Hawkpaw walked out of the medicine cat den and then took a place among the other cats,looking from time to time to Novaflight's lifeless body that now was in the camp."She was too young..." The young tom whispered under his breath and then kept quiet listening to everything that was spoken among his clan-mates.
Applekit was awoken by the noise her siblings made and opened her eyes just as a yawn escaped her."What is happening?" The she-cat asked still sleepy and she made a few steps to reach Honeyvoice then Applekit looked at her mother. "What is going on?A clan meeting?"The young kit cuddled in her mother's fur near Lark-kit then she looked at all the cats that were gathered to listen to Ravinestar and by the way Olivehearts,Silverfang and Honeyvoice spoke she started thinking something is not right at the moment.

RAVINESTAR Ravinestar hung his head. It was not that he actually thought it was a good idea to wait for them to attack his clan, it was just... he could not bring himself to declare war. Perhaps he was not a good leader in that right; Oliveheart certainly met him where he was lacking. Sighing, he swallowed his pride and admitted, "You are all right. I am sorry for trying to avoid a war. I know that many of our lives will be compromised, and I love all of you, I do not want any of you to die for this... but I suppose some things cannot be avoided, as Oliveheart has made clear."He looked determinedly at them all. "I will declare war with ObsidianClan, now and at the next gathering. Oliveheart, Jadefall, Tigershade - you are all invited into my den to begin planning immediately."
OLIVEHEART
'I have the clan's support,' she smiled, knowing that this would surely change the leader's mind. Even if it didn't, she would everything in her power to lead a revolt against ObsidianClan, with or without the leader's permission. When Ravinestar finally agreed to start a war with Onyxstar over the ruthless murder of Novaflight, she sighed in relief. As Ravinestar turned and ended the meeting, Oliveheart began to speak briefly: "We will avenge Novaflight's death and they will regret ever threatening RavineClan!"WHITEKIT Whitekit awoke out of sleep groggily, "Eh.. what's going on?" he asked, seeing his siblings rushing outside to their mom. Immediately the tiny black and white kit got to his paws. He nuzzled his moms paws and looked up at her with big curious eyes. "What's happening?" |

TURTLEKIT
Turtlekit gives one more tug of Sagekit's tail when Cloudkit came out and asked if they were even supposed to be out here. She whipped around and hissed angrily. "Of course not that's why I'm trying to get him back in the nursery. What did you think I was doing playing?" Her eyes grew wide as she saw the last of her littermates come out and she threw up her head and gave up. It was too late now their mom knew they were all out of the nursery.
SAGEKIT
Sagekit was about to rip his tail out of his sister's jaw's when she finally let go and spun around to yell at Whitekit. With that, he quickly turned and bounded over to his mom. "Mom, what is war? Why is Ravinestar so scare to start war with Obsidianclan?"
LARK-KIT
Lark-kits belly began to rumble and she pawed at her mom's belly wanting to eat. She felt her sister Applekit cuddle up next to her and her mom. Her eyes were huge with fear, she didn't understand what was going on and why everyone was so worried and angry. When Sagekit asked what war is she looked up to her mom wondering if she would tell them or not.
Honeyvoice sighed with relief as Ravinestar finally gave in. She hated the thought of war, but she hated the thought of Obsidianclan attacking her clan and killing her kits even more. She wrapped her tail around the kits who came to her side then turned to Sagekit. "War is nothing you need to worry about. Only apprentices, warriors, the deputy, and the leader need to worry about such things. The only thing you need to worry about is having fun with your siblings." Wanting to distract them she snagged a mouse from the nearby freshkill pile and tossed it at Whitekit. "Why don't you guys play catch or keep away with this."
TIGERSHADE
Getting up he padded after Ravinestar and Oliveheart. His tail dragged in the dust, his spirits were low. He had not wanted war, but he couldn't see any other way around it. The clan wanted it, they would've fought against Ravinestar may have even tried to start a war on their own. And that would've done nobody any good. He let out a sigh as he entered Ravinestar's den. "Ravinestar what did you wish to talk to me about?" Hopefully he could delay the war until new-leaf, it was almost here. Snow was melting and the air was growing warmer. It was less than half a moon away. If they could just wait he could restock on his herbs. Right now they were low, very low.

WHITEKIT Whitekit smiled happily when his mom said that war was not their concern. He was glad to not have to be involved in whatever was happening, because he could see the looks on everyones faces and they didn't look content or playful like his and his siblings did. Whitekit rushed back into the den, feeling that it was too cold out for him. He stood at the entrance, waiting for his mom and siblings to follow. OLIVEHEART Once inside Ravinestar's den, Oliveheart sat down before him. "We must start planning immediately," she said. "I feel like we should ambush their camp, have it surrounded in the middle of the night... kill any cat that doesn't express remorse for their clan's violent ways." The brown she-cat could not wait to get her claws on Inksplash's apprentice... RAVINESTAR Ravinestar listened, somewhat pleased by his deputy's plan, until she mentioned the part about killing cats. He was full of mercy, even in the face of what had happened to Novaflight, but he knew that his deputy's eyes were clouded with grief and anger for what had happened, but he could not allow her to carry out the plan that way. "Oliveheart, you are strong and I trust you as a deputy, but you know what we stand for," he reminded her softly, coming up to her and resting his gray tail on her shoulder. "I know the murder of your apprentice hurts, but you cannot let those feelings revoke your morality. A retaliation is important, I know that and so does the whole clan, but we are the light in a dark world, that is just who we are and killing for killing won't help. Kindness and mercy will get to them... however in the meantime, we must defend our clan, and go on the offense soon." |

HONEYVOICE
Honeyvoice sighed as she watched the leader, deputy and medicine cat pad away. With that, she got to her feet and swept her tail around to gather her kits. "Come now time to go back inside little ones." She bent her head and gave Sagekit a nudge sending him stumbling. She made sure everyone of her kits were inside before following them. She laid down in her nest and closed her eyes rememberin everything that had been said in the meeting. She whispered a silent prayer to Starclan to watch over her kits.
SAGEKIT
Sagekit wanted to stay out and find out what was going on but his mom nudged him and almost sent him head over paws. So he quickly got going and went back into the nursery.
LARK-KIT
Lark-kit stayed at her mom's side when she told them all to head inside she quickly did as she was told. She opened her jaws wide in a yawn. Maybe she could get some food before going back to sleep. She purred softly as her mom laid down. She quickly cuddled up next to her and began to nurse.
TURTLEKIT
Turtlekit let out a loud harrumph then with her head and tail lifted high she stalked back into the nursery and curled into a ball.
TIGERSHADE
Tigershade sighed and shook his head as Oliveheart ranted on about what they should do. When finally there was space for him to speak he did. "I agree that we should attack Obsidianclan's camp and show them that we are not afraid, but I do not agree with the killing every cat. I also don't agree with doing it right now. I'm low on herbs, I don't have enough to treat cats if we go to war. I suggest we wait until New-Leaf when I can collect more herbs so I'll be ready to treat the injured when it comes time."

cloudkit Cloudkit snorts at Turtlekit when she hisses at him, raising an eyebrow when she stalks off to go and yell at Whitekit. "Thank god she left, because I'm not sure Sagekit's tail would've made it." he mutters under his breath, laughing softly to himself. His inquisitive amber eyes snap to movement and he watches curiously as Tigershade, the medicine cat (whom he only knew due to the talk of the clan) appears to drag himself to Ravinestar's den. When Tigershade is completely inside Ravinestar's den, he looks away and walks towards his mother. He dodges the sweeping tail and trails behind the rest of his family, wanting desperately to ask his mother a question. When all his siblings are settled down, he stretches out with his head touching Honeyvoice's and whispers his question. "Didn't.. didn't Sagefur die because of war?" He had heard cats talking about poor Honeyvoice and her kits, mateless and baring a whopping six kits. With her Sagefur dying in battle. He wasn't that smart, but he was sure that war and battle were alike, right?
