Awwwwww! Dawnstar observed her clanmates as they came bounding over to the Shadowledge, not as many of them having trouble with the frost as she hoped, so nothing to laugh about at first. But then, her eyes flickered to Heatherrain and Ebonysky as the pair made their appearance. She glued her attention to the warriors for obvious reasons, and Frostscreech as Ebonysky seemed to be making pleading faces at him. Why?
Dawnstar had been very clear on Frostscreech getting his priorities set straight, so Ebonysky really shouldn't have any reason to look so pitiful... unless her Enforcers pinned the blame for Smallleap's death on her and just neglected to tell Dawnstar. Or maybe the guilt of killing a clanmate was finally catching up to her? Whatever it was, she was pleased to see that Frostscreech draw away from his kin. Perhaps he wasn't completely hopeless after all, Dawnstar needed a new Enforcer to replace Brackenfire.
She had no clue where her daughter hadn't gotten to, but she wasn't here and that's all that really matter. Dawnstar was learning bit by bit to numb herself to the abandonment as her chosen kin vanished one by one, abandoning her much as blood-kin had. The whole suppressing emotions were certainly not healthy but she didn't have the time nor the luxury to cry and scream about why her family kept leaving her let alone try to figure out why she was born unlovable. Dawnstar was ShadowClan's ruthless, dark, clan leader, she didn't do tears. Besides, it was way more fun distracting herself with clan issues over sobbing about her personal issues and feelings.
See! Look at that! The amber irises were focused on Ebonysky as the molly produced death berries seemingly out of nowhere and jammed them in her own mouth. Well, that was no fun. The she-cat's eyes lost visual for a moment as they were too busy rolling to the back of the leader's head in disappointment. "What a bore." She snarled under her breath, glaring coldly as her clanmates took the death one way or another. So overly dramatic, the leader couldn't help but be a little upset with how easily Ebonysky weaseled her way out of admitting her crimes.
As Elmshadow hurried over with Cougarivy at his heels, Dawnstar listened as he announced the obvious cause of death. The clan leader, with a bit of slipping, leap off the Shadowledge and proceeded to pad over the corpse. She veered out of Elmshadow's way and stood a little less than a tail length from the body. "Do we have wild death berries nearby?" She questioned the medicine cat with a tilt of her head. "Or did she steal berries from your stock?" There was plain curiosity in Dawnstar's tone as she waited for an answer from Elmshadow.
In the meanwhile, she drew closer to Ebonysky's still form and grabbed the body by the scuff. The muscles in the leader's legs strained to keep her balance on the icy ground as she hauled the dead weight around, even though she was careful to avoid touching the paws and mouth, she reminded herself to groom herself, or actually, it might be better to go to the lake near the mourning ruins instead, maybe do some hunting while she was there. She continued to think about how the rest of her day would be going while padding towards the closet den, her own, and dropping Ebonysky's body inside it.
Shaking out a kink in her neck, she ginger returned to the clearing and glanced at Frostscreech. "You can say your goodbye to the traitor now if you'd like, don't touch the body obviously, but I'm tossing her in the outskirts the Moonlit Grove is no place for traitors." Dawnstar had the strongest urge to groom her fur but refrained for obvious reasons.
"This is not how I wanted to start out the meeting." The Shadowclan leader raised her voice to a booming volume once again as she spoke to the entirety of the clan. The leader easily towered over many of her clanmates, besides the extra large few and the rare few that stood a bit taller, still, she was a bit antsy about speaking in the clearing instead of atop the Shadowledge, but she was already down here and wasn't going to waste her time clambering back up on the stone.
"But might as well as get this over with, Heatherrain, Frostscreech told me that you and Ebonysky killed Smallleap, he said that Ebonysky told him herself. Unfortunately, or maybe, fortunately, with her timely death, I can't actually confirm this. However, considering that you do have a proclivity to take matters into your own paws, disobeying my explicated orders, and have killed your own clanmates before, I'm inclined to believe him."
"I'm not interested in why you did it, nor do I particularly enjoy drama, I'd rather just kill you and be done with it since I've more important matters to attend to this meeting, but I figured I'd allow you to explain yourself to the clan." Heatherrain was going to die regardless of whether she denied it or not, so she might as well let her clan have their little dramafest.
[Dawn isn't interested in the drama of it, but if the clan wants to question or yowl at Heatherrain, go ahead. Heatherrain's execution will be carried out in Dawn's next post.]

Jayblue and Tigerfang Echoed "YIKES!!! DAWNSTARS SCARY WHEN MAD"
"Murderer Murderer Murderer" the two Chanted as they circled around each other in a twisting little dance (lol, not really) "Kill Her Kill Her Kill Her" "She Knows Her Crimes She Knows her Crimes She Knows Her Crimes"
Batpaw’s jaw dropped at everything was seeing. The poor tom was terrified. He skidded to a halt as he saw Ebonysky shove death berries in her mouth. He knew what they were, he learned about them as a kit. The black tom kept blinking in disbelief at what was happening.
Batpaw gulped trying to hide his fear, he battled against himself to keep calm and breathe. Eventually, he calmed.

Flamecall barely registered the death of Ebonysky until Elmshadow announced her cause of death. Flamecall retched. Deathberries, They thought, eyes hollow as they stared at Ebonysky’s body as it was in the process of being dragged away, What a nightmare. StarClan knows that there is now little doubt about whether or not someone was guilty.
Flamecall held their tongue and refocused on the meeting at hand. There was no need to lament about a cat they didn’t know.

HeatherRain let out this crazy laugh... "Well, You caught me, I killed not one, Not TWO, But FIVE cats... JayTalon, MeadowLeap, SmallLeap, WildHolly, who was a riverclan warrior and now EbonySky. Five Times the charm!" she made her way over to BeeFlight, Grinning. "I gave EbonySky the berries, I had been hiding them in a burrow for a few moons now... I told her to use them on you, DawnStar, but she was a damn moron and killed herself." BeeFlight backs away from HeatherRain as she gets closer...
"'Oh, my name is EbonySky! I'm dramatic! Let's get manipulated and eat these berries!' boo hoo, no one cares." her eyes rolled and she growled. After giving her chest a quick lick, she continued. "Before I die, I'd like to add to my collection of bodies. Good Bye, BeeFlight." HeatherRain quickly slashes at BeeFlight, Slashing right under her throat... BeeFlight, Being smart, Pretends to die to her claws.
HeatherRain began to laugh more, what a mousebrain... "I would've been good for this clan, Killing traitors. Cats that weren't 100% for ShadowClan DIED to my claws." She licks the blood off her claw... "Such... weaklings..." She giggled... "Well DawnStar, Guess I failed... Send me to hell." giggling, she sat down and waited to be executed in the center of camp.

The small tom stared at the body in the center of camp his small body froze in horror, but it soon gave way to curiosity. Dawnstar why did the warriors hurt others from shadowclan? We’re they bad? he squeaked hopefully loud enough to be heard over the ruckus of the other cats. As he listend to dawnstar speak his small tiny brown tail twitched in anticipation. Eyes turned towards heather’rain who had been sitting down not far away from them. But once they began to crazily rant on. The small brown kit was petrified. And as they admitted to killing the other clan cats he couldn’t suppress the what! Is wrong with you! as it fumbled from his shaking body.
A moment later something red and warm splattered across his face and chest. He froze. What’s this stuff. Why does it smell so bad. he glanced over as beeflight fell over. The red stuff was coming from them. And Heather rain had just clawed beeflight. As his tiny brain pieced things together, his eyes widened and his pupils shrank. Stumbling backwards he slid across the surface of the slippery rock. Smearing blood in his wake a he fumbled to get back to his paws.
"What. The. Hell..."
Vulture'fang felt himself mutter in disdain. Why was it that EVERY meeting, without fail, someone seemed to die? Actually, he wasn't surprised anymore, this seemed like an everyday occurrence. If someone wasn't slitting someone else's throat, they were doing it themselves...
At this point he couldn't help but feel sorry for Dawnie, what was it like to lead a clan full of degenerates?

He shook his head and thinked -Pathetic, HeatherRain is just pathetic, what a mousebrain....- it wasn't the first time in his life that he saw this, he didn't moved, didn't even flinch an inch, his outsider life was full of treasons, deaths and blood, he watched Dawnstar and HeatherRain and just waited... just waited the execution...

Cobwebpaw Took One Look at the Kit and SHook his Head, Really, Things Like this weren't meant for Kit eyes surely? Cobwebpaw paddled over to the kit to help it up. "Are You Ok Little one?" He meowed as he leaned down to groom out the blood, if he could
Maplebranch knew this was gonna be good. She hadn't seen a cat die in a while, and she knew she will see one right now. She enjoyed having Dawnstar as a leader, she put her favorite thing in everything. And that was death. But she had wished that has fallen on Mossdaner before she was the next cat in the spotlight of a meeting.
