28: Lightningstar

"My name is Silversnow." Said the white cat.
"Silversnow." Snoweagle echoed. Silversnow, may we start the ceremony?" Icefire Asked.
"Yes, of course, my dear pupil." Silversnow said. Lightning looked at one of the new cats for a split second, then turned away. Was that recognition?
Twanykit stepped forward. Lightning stepped forward.
"You.... you look like my sister." Lightning said. "But she died long ago..."
The she-kit smiled and nodded. "That's because i am your sister."
Lightning looked at Twanykit dumbly. Twanykit 'sweatdropped'. "You are going to feel some pain. It's only for a few seconds. We are just zapping your old life out of you."
Lightning flinched and nodded. After a few seconds, it was over. Lightning appeared to be out of it a little.
"With this life, i give you love, for your future family." Twanykit said as she touched noses, her eyes sparkling with wisdom far, far beyond her age.
Lightning felt a sharp pain run down his spine, but right after, his heart surged with life. It was filling with Joy and Happiness. Twanykit walked backwards away a few paces.
"Twany....kit? Where are you going?" Lightning asked, but another cat stepped up. Rainwolf.
"With this life i give you courage, as i was always loyal in my past." Lightning was shocked my how much passion was in this life. Rainwolf stepped back. The misty tom stepped up.
"Why are you so misty......Shadowpaw?" Lightning asked.
"Because there is no cat left on the earth to know me, to remember me." Shadowpaw said. He looked into Lightning's eyes, his full of courage. "I hope you will remember me. With this life i give you Bravery." Lightning gasped. Visions of past battles flashed by and by, old wounded cats never giving up, ending with a flash as red a fresh blood. Shadowpaw stepped back and was replaced by Icefire.
"With this life i give you good humor." Icefire said with a laugh. This life was warm and fuzzy. Icefire stepped back, and Dawnmist stepped up. "With this life i give you Loyalty." A passed life flashed through Lightning's head, Rejecting offers to join other sides, not abandoning friends till the last breath. Lightning gasped for breath, for this life was wild and ferocious. Fawndusk stepped up to the plate.
"With this life i give you endless strength." A surge of Thunder and a roar of a lion crashed through Lightning.
Leafpelt stepped up. "With this life i give you knowledge." Long forgotten epics and tales of adventure were in this life, not as piercing as the last 3.
Oretachistar stepped up. "Hello, young one." Lightning dipped his head, he knew 'star' meant leader. "You have no need to bow, Lightning." The she-cat said.
"How do you know my name?" Lightning asked.
"Starclan know everything. With this life i give you Happiness" Lightning felt as if he could bounce around for no reason at all, he was so filled with joy.... and lives. 8, if you were counting.
One more life. thought Snoweagle thought.
Silversnow stepped up with grace and, to Lightning, beauty. "With this life i give you Faith through the darkest hour to support your clan." The last life gracefully was embedded in him. "You have all your lives, and i grant you with your leader name. Lightningstar! Lightningstar!"
Snoweagle and Thunderbolt joined. "Lightningstar! Lightningstar!"
