Just days after Crestscar's death, Leaftail poked her nose in the medicine cat's den. "Icefang," she whispered. "Cloudstar want's to see you when you have chance." then she realized- Icefang wasn't in her bed. Leaftail looked around, and spotted her sister's silver body hovering over Dragonmist- as if she'd fallen asleep like that. Curious, she padded over, she prodded Icefang, but before she could speak, she noticed how cold Dragonmist's body was, and she wasn't breathing. Icefang awoke, then dipped her head in agonized acknoledgement. "She went peacfully." Leaftail reassured her sister, remembering the crushed mangled body of her clan's deputy. "You are medicine cat now, Icefang." Leaftail pressed her muzzle into her sister's fur, sympathy for her sister and greif for the loss of Dragonmist clouded over her. "I can't do it..." Icefang said so softly. Leaftail dipped her head and whipped out of the den, racing to her leader. "Cloudstar- Dragonmist is dead." She spoke calmy, softly, as not to sound over-dramatic. Cloudstar closed his eyes briefly, then stood up and walked outside and to the medicine cat den. He soon pulled out the body of the elderly she-cat, and set her down under he moss-rock. Cloudstar then leapt onto the moss-rock. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the moss-rock." Leaftail noticed he left out For a Clan Meeting, but shrugged it off anyways. Mews and hisses of shock rippled through the gathered cats. Leaftail stood at the back of them, gazing at her sister, who's head hung low. "It was her time, Icefang." She reassured her. Icefang glared at her, "I know that!" She snapped. "But I'm not ready for this!" Icefang turned and stalked away. Leaftail turned away, this was too much. What had they done to deserve this?! "StarClan help us.." She murmered.
