I stood there in the shadows, watching as the elders blessed the warriors that were leaving for battle once again, this time to cover the retreat of their other brothers. Once he was sure that the elders were alone he walked over to them.
Elder Ironpaw looked up as he seen the shadows shift and become the leader's son Rick. "Ah, young leader, what brings you to us? the warriors just left." the other Elders: Swiftpaw, Silverfur, and Bloodmane; all took a seat, welcoming Rick. It was a tradition to have no last name until you proved yourself in battle.
Rick sat down last as he contemplated his answer. "Elders, I'm fearful..."
Elder Silverfur looked at the others, and asked. "Do tell, what brings such fear to you, the leader's son?"
Rick sat there, hesitating for a moment, pondering how he should say this.

Many times lost, many times found again.
