When Black Sees Red

"Greedstar! Greedstar!" The black tom lifted his head as Troutclaw ran over to his leader. By the way he was panting, he had been sure to run as fast as he could back to camp.
"What is it?" Greedstar demanded.
"There have been recent scents of a DuskClan cat on our side of the border! I was on Redclaw's patrol when we came across it. He sent me back to inform you."
Greedstar's silver eyes narrowed into furious slits. "How dare they cross our border!" He snarled as he stood up. "Where is Redclaw?"
"He's waiting with Wolffur, Riverpaw, and Oakpaw near the border."
"Very well, tell them that I'll be sending a patrol soon." Greedstar made his way to the Highstone and bunched his muscles as he prepared to leap. He scrambled onto the large stone and let out an angry yowl.
Troutclaw was about to ask why another patrol was needed when cats began filing out of their dens; filling the clearing like a shadow.

"Cats of StellarClan!" Greedstar began. He didn't both hiding the anger out of his voice. "DuskClan has been scented inside of our borders. Today will be the day we attack!"
There were furious hisses and angry remarks. Tails lashed with anticipation. They knew this day would come sooner or later.
He waited as it quieted down. "I will lead a patrol myself with Pebblesplash, Silverpaw, Hawkeye, Troutclaw, Sunbelly, Sleetpelt, Blackpaw, and Mousefur. Redclaw, Tanpaw, Wolffur, Oakpaw, and Riverpaw are already waiting. Those whose names haven't been called will remain in camp. Now let's go."
Greedstar leaped from the Highstone and flicked his tail, signalling for his patrol to leave.

"One second, Greedstar!" Shiningsong called as she walked over to him. "I must do something first." Grief flickered in her icy blue eyes, but she quickly shook her head. She knew her time was almost up, and she had to do something.
"Very well," Greedstar nodded and took a step back. He noticed the medicine cat didn't look well, but she had been nursing all of the sick cats.
"Thank you," she whispered before standing in front of the Highstone. "Heatherpaw, come here." Although she was confused, she obeyed her mentor.
"I, Shiningsong medicine cat of StellarClan, call upon my warrior ancestors to look down upon this apprentice. She has trained hard to understand the way of a medicine cat, and with your help she will serve her Clan for many moons."
"Heatherpaw, do you promise to uphold the ways of a medicine cat, to stand apart from rivalry between Clan and Clan, and to protect all cats equally, even at the cost of your life?"
Heatherpaw was even more surprised. She had recently joined the Clan and barely knew anything! She still had so much to learn and she was already receiving her full medicine cat name!
"I do," she meowed and frowned as her voice faltered.
"Then by the powers of StarClan I give you your true name as a medicine cat. Heatherpaw, from this moment you will be known as Heathercloud. StarClan honours your kindness and patience."

"Congratulations, Heathercloud." Greedstar dipped his head in respect at the newly named medicine cat.
"Now," he said. "We must go."
The black tom flicked his tail once more and raced out of the camp. He heard the soft thumping of paws behind him as he lead his Clan to their first Clan versus Clan battle. While running towards DuskClan, Redclaw's patrol of Wolffur, Oakpaw, and Riverpaw joined.
The large patrol passed the borders and ran deeper into enemy territory. Once they were outside of the camp, Greedstar let out a ferocious battle cry and dove into the camp.

[Okay, so there's a couple of things I need to know. First, I need to know if any ceremonies need to be made. Like kits to apprentices or apprentices to warriors. Let me know in the 'Updates' page.
Second, Echo, I need to know Heatherpaw's warrior name. I'm fairly bad at coming up with some myself. ^^;
Lastly, I want to make a human/vampire blog, but is anyone willing to join? It will be based off of 'Vampire Knight' (you don't need to watch it to join) and will consist of an academy for two classes of students. The first class consisting of the 'Day Class' which include humans and (unlike Vampire Knight) vampire hunters; or at least vampire hunters in training. The second class is the 'Night Class' which includes vampires and vampires only. I will add more information if I create the blog.
Also, I'd like to apologise for my absence. I had a really hectic week helping my sister add the finishing touches to her wedding and I was also briefly locked out of my account.
Oh, yeah! I'd like to add that the title is called "When Black Sees Red" means that black [the shade of Greedstar's pelt] sees red; in this case, he's furious.

Edit:
Oh, yes! One more thing. The DuskClan cat they scented was Rowanfur. After his little run-in with Mousefur.]
