Petalfade stopped running for a second and relaxed. A hissing sound was heard and a black and white she cat had leapt onto her in a matter of seconds.

"Midnight that's enough." A ginger calico she cat said limping out into the clearing. Suddenly several cats had stepped into the clearing.

"Hello, My name is Icy. What's your name?" A tall white and black tomcat introduced himself. The small ginger she cat looked at the cats who had stepped out, the group had a the black and white tomcat, a black she cat with pale blind green eyes, a ginger calico she cat with gold eyes, a dark grey Tortie, a cinnamon colored cat with cream legs, a chocolate tabby, and a dark brown calico stood staring at her.

"What?" She flicked her tail in confusion. Then, the blind she cat meowed into her good ear.

"Oh you're deaf aren't you?" The she cat said

"I'm deaf," Petalfade meowed, not hearing her.

"Say, what's your name kit?" The chocolate tabby meowed, stepping closer. He realized she couldn't understand and wrote the question in the dust with a paw.

"Petalfade. Now, who in the name of Dark Forest are you cats."

"I am Leaf, this is Midnight, and Rose." He said pointing to the blind black she cat and the ginger calico.

"The tall black and white tomcat is Icy and the Dark grey Tortie is his brother Ivy, the cinnamon tomcat is Pumpkin though he's mute, and the dark brown calico is Rose's sister Maple" he concluded pointing to each cat.

"Thank you, Leaf"

"Your welcome, now why are you not with your Clan, I thought clan cats stay together?"

"I was at the apprentice age yesterday but the Clan leader said I was to be an elder for the rest of my life since I am half deaf but I ran away to be a warrior." The end of her story was met with gasps of shock.

"We have been debating for a while whether we should join the clan world but after hearing of your misfortune I believe we shall start our own clan." Icy suggested quietly

"We shall form our own clan." Petalfade announced then a voice piped up

"What will we call it?" As the cat spoke she searched for the owner to the voice.

"That is a good question, Ivy so does anyone have a suggestion?" She answered

"How about LostClan?" Maple meowed

"LostClan it is." Petalfade concluded

"LostClan, LostClan, LostClan!" The cats chanted as she stood on a branch above the others.

"I will be called Petalstar, as it is the word of StarClan that a leaders suffix name is 'star." She shouted out

"From what I also know is a clan must have a deputy and a medicine cat as well as warriors and apprentices not to mention elders, kits, and queens." The ginger tabby finished before anyone could meow.

"Let's start giving roles and names then." Petalstar announced as shouts of cats went through the trees creating an echo in the air.
