Hawkfeather padded towards Skyrock to relay Faithstar's wishes to her fellow Clanmates. She was a bit nervous considering this was the first announcement she had ever made in front of all these cats, but at the same time, she felt honored to be in charge. She took her place on a small bolder below Skyrock where she had seen Faithstar make her announcements when she was a deputy, it seemed like it was only yesterday.
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, please gather around!" She yowled loudly so that everyone could hear her.
She waited for a small amount of cats to gather in the center of camp. Hawkfeather felt discouraged with the size of her clan and understood why Faithstar wanted to cut out hunting parties and just patrol the borders. She waited for the last few stragglers to emerge from their dens and began ,"As you all know, we are very hard up for warriors until our apprentices become warriors. We struggle to find prey for clan, and we are struggling to maintain our borders. Its just how Clan Life works. SkyClan Needs more then ever before, to patrol our borders. Faithstar and I have came to an mutual agreement, until further notice, we will be cutting back on our hunting parties and increasing our border patrols. This doesn't mean we will not have hunting parties, since we do have many hungry mouths, it just means we won't be as comfortable as we have been for the last few moons. Almost every Clan has new leaders and deputies, and with this in mind we need to be on top of our borders. Today I would like to send out two patrols. One going into the Redwoods with myself, and the other going towards Patched Valley. They will both meet up at Shallow Canyon and proceed to hunt. Is there any volunteers, or do I need to pick random cats?"
Hawkfeather hoped she wasn't to demanding, but the fact of the matter was, the Clan really needed to be ready for any possible threat that could harm their clan.
