"Of course she said that! Why, she's probably one of the best Thunderclan leaders of all time!" Rosepaw boasted, as though she was the one who achieved what Bumblestar did, but it was just her way of looking up and idolizing the leader. "Didn't you know that in just my time, Bumblestar has eliminated all sorts of threats from Thunderclan, with barely any effort." Rosepaw stood a little taller, looking at the kitten, likely assuming that he, in fact, did not know that.
"It was first a former Shadowclan cat that was accepted into our ranks. One day a evil spirit was in camp, and Bumblestar was making it leave, but then Ash- or Ashpaw then- had tried to defend the spirit, yelling back at Bumblestar." Rosepaw bristled her fur at the thought of Ash, it reminded her of Nettlescratch and their apology. "But then Bumblestar didn't falter and exiled Ash and got rid of the spirit in mere seconds!"
Though at the kit's stubborness, Rosepaw sighed, what was making the kit feel like he had to be prepared for if his leader and high ranks went missing. That just didn't make sense, and that was coming from Rosepaw, the daughter of an exiled medicine cat. "I mean, the clan can't wait for them. That's just how it works, at least, based on what I know. If there's nothing there, then new leadership would be founded and Thunderclan would persist despite the loss."

Dustkit’s tail flicked nervously as Rosepaw spoke about Bumblestar’s strength, but something about her words made him even more curious. He padded closer, his small paws digging into the dirt as he tried to make sense of it all.
“But... what if something did happen to her, or any of the high ranks? How would we even know what to do if something went wrong?” Dustkit’s voice grew more intense as his thoughts tumbled out. “Would the clan just... figure it out? Is that really how it works?”
His eyes brightened with determination. “I think we should be ready for anything! Even if we don’t think it’ll happen, it could.”
With a burst of energy, Dustkit crouched low, preparing to spring forward as if testing his readiness. “I could learn things that would help. I will learn.”
