~Gathering~ May

[Tanglestar]

Her blazing ginger pelt looked like an ember as she raced through the undergrowth. Even with many sets of paws behind her, you couldn't hear any of them. Complete silence covered the grounds, except for a twig snapping every once and a while. the breeze blew in their direction, telling them no one else had yet reached the gathering place. She stopped, icy blue eyes scanning the area around the hollow where a glistening silver rock lay in the center. No movements. the massive oaks that lined the hollow casted eerie shadows upon the glistening rock from the moonlight. Slowly crouching down, she shifted her weight and waited a few moments for the breeze to return in her direction. Giving one more scent sight and view test, she finally flicked her ear. A cascade of different colored pelts poured into the clearing below. She waited until most cats were past her before she dashed down herself. No ambushes.. No surprise attacks. The flaming long furred she-cat made her way to the large rock, and sat comfortably.

Tanglestar and ThunderClan had arrived for the gathering.

[Snowberry]

Occ; I hope no one minds me saying that Spritifrost was once a warrior... =D

Wildstar walked silently from ShadowClan terrtiory deeper intothe lands around the four-trees. His clan has been doing very badly this moon.. Grasspaw was now Medicine Cat and Spritifrost once warrior was now an medicine cat apprentice.... Wildstar walked towards the huge Oak trees where Tanglestar sat. He dipped his head to her and meowed, "Greetings."

Grasswhisper ran over to the Medicine spot looking out for her apprentice. She was new to the whole thing.... Wait till Whisperwind heard....

[Tanglestar]

"Greetings Wildstar." Tanglestar said, her blue eyes fixed on his. "How is ShadowClan been doing this moon?"

Whisperwind cought a whiff of her best friend, Grasswhisper. "Grasswhisper!" She bolted over to her friends side. "How are you?" She realized her friend seemed to have more weight on her shoulders. "Is everything ok?"

[Rainstar]

Rainstar scented shadowclan and Thunderclan both at the island. She started for the log and stopped to make sure all her clan was behind her. She flicked her tail for her clan to go across the log. When it was her turn she made her way across the slippery log. When Rainstar looked down the waves lapped the edge of the shore. Rainstar jumped down from the log and landed gracefully onto the hard stoney ground. the dry dirt overed her paws with brown dust. She gazed around the clearing watching her clanmate mingle with the other cats. Rainstar padded over to the tall tree. Her gaze fell on to the other leaders, ''Greetings. How is your clans doing?"

[Tanglestar]

occ: There is not tree or log, we're in the old forest

Tanglestar nodded to the RiverClan leader. "Greetings, Rainstar. All is well in RiverClan?" She asked to carry on a conversation. It was the moon after the terrible incident where her and Tanglestar fought over the prophecy when it sliped out of Rainstars mind. Tanglestar wanted to put it behind them

[Rainstar]

occ:wups! my bad!
Rainstar nodded, "Oh yes. The fish are swimming very well. How is the prey running in your clan?"

[Tanglestar]

occ: lol its ok I almost did that too yesterday

"That's good." She said. "In ThunderClan, it's well too. We're happy the water is staying so far." She purred. It was nice to be back to normal.

[Snowberry]

Wildstar nodded at Rainstar. "Hello." He meowed then said. "Things in Shadowclan has been rought... Again Tanglestar I would like to say sorry for that Apprentice crossing the border..."

"Whisperwind!" Grasswhisper meowed running to her friend. "No. Nothing is alright! Wildclaw is dead! Killed by a cat! An-and I have now an apprentice! I don't what in Starclan name am I meant to teach her!"

[Falconstar]

Falconstars' silver pelt reflected the moons bright light as Windclan silently padded to fourtrees. Falconstar felt a small breeze on her pelt, and then the scents of all the clans soon filled her nose. She and her sister proudly walked into fourtrees. Vulturetalon went elsewhere to greet her friends in other clans. Flaconstar lept onto tallrock in search of the other leaders.

[Rainstar]

Moongaze laughed as she padded up to her apprentice and the new full medicine cat, "Oh GrassWhisper, you'll be fine." She layed her tail onto the cats shoulder, "Just teach her everything you know. I remember when i first got Whisperwind as my apprentice. I paniced so far i was in starclan when i came back." Moongaze laughed more, "Oh look at me! im practiclety an elder! telling you these stories!"

Blueflame padded beside Thunderstep, her pelt was warm with confort. 'this may be my last gathering before i go to the nursery...' her thoughts trailed off into the clearing as she scanned it for any more cats she knew.

Blackfang searched the clearing searching for his half littermates. His gaze was cought when he spotted Ravenflight. "Hey RavenFilght!" befor eRavenflight could reply his gaze rested upon Shallowsand, Blackfang turned when he remembered there battle in the forest. His attention went back to Ravenflight.

[Tanglestar]

Tanglestar nodded at Wildstar. "It's quite alright. Apart from the load to disrespect. But hey, every apprentice has that in their head." She purred.

Whisperwind purred. "Grasswhisper, that's wonderful! You'll be one amazing medicine cat!" After Moongaze amused them, she said, "Yeah, I'm sure you'll love it. Taking care of your own apprentice, and teaching them everything you know.. you'll do wonderful." she reassured her.

Ravenflight's ear swiveled to the sound of a familiar voice. "Blackfang, hello." He said in a soft voice. It was like finding a long lost brother. But, he really was. () "It's strange seeing you here, and not in a dream." He mused.

[Snowberry]

Grasswhisper nodded at Moongaze. "If your sure..."

Fangbite rolled her eyes at her brothers. They should be keeping away from each other! The leaders could find out whats going on if they act all brother like together. I will not go over there to those stupid toms!!!

Wildstar nodded at Tanglestar. "Yes." Then he spotted Falconstar. "Falconstar?!" It caught up in his throat looking at the leader. Wasn't she..... Dead?

[Rainstar]

Rainstar's eyes grew wide. "Wow! what a pleasent surprise! How are you Falconstar?" Rainstar curled her tail over he paws getting ready for the gathering to begin.

Blackfang narrowed his eyes, "Shushh, you don't want anyone to hear you do you?" He lowered his voice knowing that no one could here him. He looked up to Tanglestar searching her face for any noticement. none, good. "So how is Shadowclan? Catch any good toads latley?" Blackfang tryed to change the subject as another cat pasted by.

[Tanglestar]

With a surprised expression, she realized it was Falconstar! "Wow, well greetings, Falconstar." Curiosity swept over her blazing pelt like a wave.

Ravenflight answered his question. "Actually, no. Prey has been very very scarce. I know I need to keep my strength up for you know what." His amber eyes gleamed as he smirked.

Swiftstep

As the Riverclan arrived, Swiftstep took his oppertunity to watch all the other cats. It seemed as though a river of color expanded before him. Pausing slightly, he took a moment to survey the many other cats that came this evening.
Often, he could tell what clan the cats were from simply by how the cat looked. He could see the thin frames of the Windclan cats, very different from the fluffy and mouse-fed Thunderclan. Shadowclan seemed to have darker pelts, and a more shadowy approach. Flicking his ear, he allowed a soft chuckle escape from his throat. Regaining his step, he padded into the middle of the clearing, watching as the cats around him idly chatted and spoke about each of their clan. The funny thing about gatherings to Swiftstep was, he noticed no matter how peaceful the four clans were, there was always an air of tension, each making sure they didn't give too much about their clan away. He wrapped his tail around his paws as he sat down, hoping someone would come talk with him.

Ivysoul

Ivysoul watched as the cats continued in, each carefully surveying for friends before dashing over to talk. She blinked slowly, noticing many had already started clumping together and talking, while waiting for the leaders to speak.
She watched as Swiftstep came in and shook her head. Once, as an apprentice, she had gotten in a battle with him, but she never really spoken much to him after that. She moved her gaze from each cat, up to Wildstar to see if there was any sign of starting. Noticing nothing much, she took the time to see if she could start talking to anyone.
