OOC: I know that I'm powerplaying a tad, but I'm an admin. Deal with it. It's necessary, either way. XD
IC: A shimmering figure seems to appear in the distance. It draws closer, and finally merges into a coherant form. It is a cat, normal in many respects, except... its pelt is made of pure starlight, it seems. The cat is a brown tom with yellow eyes. He looks rather regal and proud.
"Shiningheart," he meows gruffly. "It is good to see you again... my apprentice... my deputy. You know why you are here, and what it entails?"

"Yes," Largestar rumbled. He then turned his head to the sky. "The others are coming..." he mewed.
From Silverpelt, it seemed as if the stars themselves descended to the stone around the Moonpool. Many cats gathered, their starry ranks dazzling to the eye. A few approached closer than the others.
One stepped forward. He had a grizzly look, and was battle scarred, but not scary looking. He had a kindly look on his face.
"Shiningheart," he mewed. "I am Raggedstar... though you never knew me, I was once the leader of ShadowClan." He padded up to Shiningheart, touching him on the nose. "With this life I give you courage. Use it well in the defense of your Clan."
A bolt of energy seemed to shoot through Shiningheart, painful and enlightening at the same time.
When the spasms ended, another cat approached Shiningheart. He was a large white cat with black paws. "I am Blackstar, another former ShadowClan leader." he mewed. "With this life I give you justice. Use it well as you judge the actions of others." This life was just as painful as the last, agonizing and painful.
A third cat padded up. She did not give her name, but simply gave him his life. "With this life I give you loyalty to what you know to be right. Use it well to guide your Clan in times of trouble." This life was not quite as painful, with dim givings of love and confusion to it.
A fourth cat approached, this one with calico fur. "I am Tawnypelt," she meowed. "With this life I give you tireless energy. Use it well to carry out the duties of a leader." This life was filled with feelings of inexhaustable running, a bounding heart, and the thrill of the hunt.
The fifth cat was also not recognized. "With this life I give you protection. Use it well to care for your Clan as a mother would for her kits." This life was not warm or loving, as some may expect, but fierce and full of rage, like a queen guarding her endangered kits.
The sixth cat was a small tabby tom. "I am Littlecloud. With this life I give you wisdom. Use it well to train the young cats of your Clan."
The seventh, a skinny grey tom. "I am Boulder. With this life I give you compassion. Use it well for the elders of your Clan, the sick, and all those weaker than yourself."
The eighth, a silvery tabby that did not tell her name either. "With this life I give you love. Use it well, for all the cats in your care." This life felt warm, like the sun in greenleaf, and not painful like the rest.
Finally, Largestar approached, the wisdom in his eyes apparent as he looked at his former Clanmate. "Shiningheart, my apprentice and deputy... with this life I give you nobility, certainty, and faith. Use it well as you lead your Clan in the ways of StarClan and the warrior code."
Most of the StarClan warriors were on their paws, now, and Largestar signaled for Shiningheart to get up too. "I hail you by your new name, Shiningstar. You have now received the nine lives of a leader, and StarClan grants you the guardianship of ShadowClan. Defend it well; care for young and old; honor your ancestors and the traditions of the warrior code, and live each life with pride and dignity.
"Shiningstar! Shiningstar!" the StarClan warriors chanted. As they began to fade, so did the dream...
