His left shoulder which bared a heavy scar flexed under his slight movement, bring himself to stand. The blue-grey warrior flicked his tail toward a pair of apprentices greeting him without words.
He had a lot on his mind, not that it was to much for him to handle, in fact part of him wished his dearest and longest friend would confide in him more. Stormchaser had known Lionstar since they were kits, it easy for the warrior to see the distress in the golden tom, even if he tried no to show it.
The morning had been spent thinking of ways to approach his leader without seeming to put anymore stress on the tom. With pale eyes locked on the leader's den, Stormchaser made his way carefully toward it.
"Lionstar may I come in?" He spoke respectfully, normally Stormchaser wouldn't have been so formal with his friend but with the recent turn of events, he felt the tom deserved it. Lionstar might still be his best friend but in fact, Lionstar had a connection to higher powers, he had nine lives! Something Stormchaser knew he would never achieve, but he was steady in his life and knew being a solid friend was all that was needed.
So there Stormchaser waited for permission to enter his friend's den and talk with him, like when they were younger.

"Lionstar may I come in?"
Startled out of his nap at the familiar voice at the entrance to his den, the golden ticked tom unfurled from the tight warm ball he'd been in, stretching and yawning briefly. Lionstar took care to smooth down the chest fur that had been cowlicked at some point, a split second of preening necessary for a cat who was supposed to represent and lead an entire Clan. "Yes, come in old friend," mewed Lionstar with warmth, pleased to see the solid pale gray tom he had known since kithood.
In the older days, back before he had nine lives and a link with StarClan he couldn't have gotten rid of even if he wanted to, Lionstar would've made a beeline for Stormchaser to confide in him over the recent turn of events. However, the prey shortage, the greencough outbreak, the prey-stealing by those thieving NightClan cats had stressed the golden lion-like tom out so much that he'd forgotten all about his own issues.
"I'm glad you're here, actually," confessed the warrior, wrapping his tail around his paws as he shuffled to the side to give his old friend more room. "but first things first - how are you doing? Is everything okay?" Amber eyes were full of a friend's concern and patience, the militaristic tom forever having enough time for Stormchaser and any strife Stormchaser may be going through.

"Everything is fine with me, I visited my parents yesterday in the Elders den. I think Slateface is losing his sight, but it's fairly hard to tell." He confided in his oldest friend but his tone of voice didn't allow the golden leader to take the burden of that worry.
"Enough about me how are you? Any she-cat catch your fancy?" He joked with a teasing twinkle in his eye.

"Enough about me how are you? Any she-cat catch your fancy?"
Lionstar chuckled, his amber eyes momentarily filled with amusement, replacing the concern he had instantly felt over Slateface, Stormchaser's aging parent. "Oh you know me, Storm, I can't decide on just one," teased the golden tom, continuing the joke as his thoughts wandered a little. Honestly, he didn't have time to worry about a mate or even having a crush on any she-cat here; he was so used to viewing everyone as a respected and friendly member of the Clan that he hadn't had the time to get to know many of them better. His only she-cat friend who was relatively close him was Lionsong and Spottedfeather, though he didn't have the kind of relationship with either one of them that could be considered romantic.
Shaking his head clear of these thoughts, Lionstar drew his amber eyes up to Stormchaser's pale green ones, taking the opportunity presented to him to confide in his closest friend. Oh StarClan, where do I start? NightClan stealing prey, Silverkit and Rowankit, Noblepaw's sulking, Littleflower's death... "Have you been to the nursery lately?" the TreeClan leader finally mewed, sweeping his tail around his paws, his breath rising and falling evenly, though his eyes shown with an odd mixture of pride and concern. "I'm...worried about Silverkit and Rowankit. It's a very brutal leafbare, and my mother isn't as young as she used to be either..."

A smile crossed Stormchaser face as Lionstar made a playful remark about she-cat, while the blue grey tom understood what it was like to not now how to court a she-cat, Stormchaser couldn't hep but be envious of the golden tom, the leader of TreeClan. Surely he wouldn't have problem with she-cat, it appeared to the blue tom that she-cat would be throwing themselves at his golden friend, but he pushed the thought aside and shared the worry of the nursery with his leader.
He mentioned Silverkit and Rowankit, Stormchaser hoped he'd be able to one day train either of the two, but Lionstar was concerned about his mother. "Lionstar, she is a strong she-cat a little older yes but still strong as ever. I know that Lionsong has been hunting all the time I've seen her out there and just about ever small mouse or vole she catches goes to the queens, it's a wonder the warriors have strength. Yes I agree this leaf-bare is the hardest I've ever known, but I also feel that if we keep our warriors going on looking for food that we can keep her strong if anyone." Stormchaser paused and glance out of Lionstar's den for a moment.
"Besides I'm sure Spottedfeather can give her extra herbs if needed. They will make it Lionstar." Stormchaser said trying to lighting the mood, yes it was a harsh season but Lionstar had to understand everyone in the Clan was working to keep them alive, warriors went hungry for the queens and elders. Lionstar needed to see that everyone cared for those little bundles not just Lionstar and his kin.

Lionstar smiled, feeling gratitude for his oldest friend wash over him. "You're right, you're right - I uh...I can't help but worry and overthink things." Confessed the golden tom, releasing a soft sigh that was little more than the tip of the iceberg to how stressed he really was. He didn't want to dwell on the possibility that, despite his and his Clan's best efforts, that Silverkit, Rowankit and Sandfur might not make it through the winter after all. He was particularly paranoid about greencough, it had not yet ravaged his camp like he had heard it attack so many others across borders, but Lionstar had already voiced these concerns with Spottedfeather.
The golden tom turned to look at his friend, blinking slowly as he emitted another tired-sounding sigh. "It feels like everything is coming down at once. Duskpaw & Noblepaw's injury, Elder becoming our new Medicine Cat apprentice... The prey-stealing from NightClan, this leafbare..." He spat the last couple words with disgust for NightClan and the weather over all. He didn't know what StarClan was thinking, keeping silent in such a huge time of need for his Clan.
He was still vainly hoping StarClan would point the way towards a new source of prey or just anything that could help them get through the winter, but so far his ancestors had been utterly silent. "Sorry, I don't mean to complain." Lionstar quickly backpedaled, flashing Stormchaser an apologetic grimace, "It's been a very long moon, that's all."

His tail moved from one side to the other, his eyes leveled kindly on his leaders amber ones. They worries and concerns he shared however, Stomechaser felt important to his oldest friend that he be the one that was confided in.
"Lionstar, I might never know what it feels like to have StarClan so silent. Stormchaser paused for a moment, scrapping up the worlds with delicate measures. "I think that it would be smart to take it day by day. Focus on one thing at a time, yes you have a lot on your shoulders, I agree to that. However, I feel you should focus on the two largest issues. Prey for our clan and the threat of NigthClan. I feel that posting warriors along the border at different times during the day might limit the threat. More hunting parties, even bring in frogs or prey like that. Sure it won't taste the best but it's a start so we don't starve. Stormchaser paused again, ensuring he covered what he felt was most important.
I'd let Spottefeather and Elderpaw worry about StarClan. You may have nine lives Lionstar but you can't do anything." Stormchaser finished, trying to allow his last few words to seem playful, but he didn't think it did the trick, it was stressful times, not much for jokes.

Lionstar chuckled at the teasing of his oldest friend, amused more at Stormchaser's earnest desire to cheer him up than the actual words spoken. The golden tom nodded sagely at Stormchaser's suggestions. "Thank you, old friend." He purred with audible warmth, "I have already doubled the patrols around NightClan's border, and all warriors have been given my permission to attack any cats they find trespassing, unless they're Medicine Cats or Medicine Cat apprentices." Pausing to see if he'd forgotten anything, Lionstar remained quiet a few minutes longer upon confirming he'd said everything that needed to be said concerning NightClan.
Determined not to get riled up by thoughts of Ravenstar and her hellish brood, the lion-like TreeClanner made a small noise of contemplation, not wanting to dwell on StarClan's silence either. "I wish I knew of a way to raise morale around here. This is a hard, hard winter, Stormchaser. I don't want the apprentices and the young warriors to think that it's always going to be like this." Trailing off, amber eyes fixed upon the gray tom's green eyes, Lionstar kneaded the frozen ground of his den in thought.
What could he do? Games? A competition? Sure, but what kind of competition? A scavenger hunt? Hmmmm....

The moment of silence that stretched between them was welcomed with a moment of clarity for the blue warrior. He was to uphold the values of TreeClan and by serving his clan with tooth and claw, was what he was meant to do, but he didn't feel it was the only answer to the prey stealing, but at the moment he understood why Lionstar had made such a choice. It was coming to the bare minimum of prey left in the area, Stormchaser knew that more and more warriors were coming back empty jawed and Stormchaser was the first cat to go with a meal in service to a queen or elder.
The question of returning the spirit and spunk back to the claws was an idea that hadn't crossed Stormchaser's mind. He was a seasoned warrior he knew that Newleaf would come soon enough, it was a matter of remaining strong and pull through the struggle that made Stormchaser feel stronger, empowered as a warrior.
"Worried about the spirit of TreeClan falling to the bitter snow?" He spoke out loud, not a hint of an answer in his first words. "I suggest allowing the apprentice and young warriors breaks. It's tiring to hunt all the time and patrol all the time. Ask first of the elder warrior to double on patrols and hunt more. They after all are more experienced and know that leaf-bare is just another season. They have a more solid spirit." Stormchaser meowed, flicking his tail and kneading the ground below him with his paws.
"Maybe set up a story telling, one night or even late day have a informal clan meeting and have elders tells stories. The wilder the better. I'll happily tell a few stories my mother and father old me about StarClan and the Clans of Old." Stormchaser meowed a gleam in his eye for the second idea.

"I suggest allowing the apprentice and young warriors breaks. It's tiring to hunt all the time and patrol all the time. Ask first of the elder warrior to double on patrols and hunt more. They after all are more experienced and know that leaf-bare is just another season. They have a more solid spirit."
The words Stormchaser spoke were definitely the words of reason, Lionstar acknowledged that, however, he also knew that a lot of the young warriors had more energy than some of the older, more senior warriors. A lot of senior warriors had stiff joints this time of the year, the TreeClan leader aware of this not because the same ailments somehow plagued him (which they didn't) but because Sagefur had always gotten slower in the wintertime. The warrior had always been too proud to say so, or too proud to let it slow him down too much, but Lionstar would never forget their first winter together, it had seemed like a simple case of achy joints to Sagefur, but it had been an eye-opener or Lionstar, who had realized then that his mentor was NOT invincible and was subject to old age like everyone else.
Taking into account the good suggestions Stormchaser had made, Lionstar first responded to the idea of letting some of the younger members of the Clan have more breaks. "I'll lessen their patrols from now on," spoke Lionstar, looking thoughtful; "We'll let them have a couple days to regain their strength, patrolling and hunting and training is even harder on an empty stomach. As for the storytelling, I think that's a great idea." Purring at the thought of everyone (well mostly everyone) involved getting a chance to just relax and not suffer from this horrendous, seemingly never-ending leafbare, Lionstar nodded in ready agreement. "I know this might be more than you asked for, but I have faith in you. Can I trust you to organize the storytelling?" asked Lionstar sincerely of his best friend. He couldn't tell if Stormchaser would agree because he wanted to or because he wanted to lighten Lionstar's own workload for a little bit, and no matter Stormchaser's reasons (if he did say yes, that is), Lionstar would be endlessly grateful.
