January Gathering

[BEAR.]

Do NOT post here with a clan cat until their respective clan leader has arrived.

Leaders can post their entrance here, however they should take their roleplay to this (http://www.warriorcatsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3195) thread.

[Jingle]

Halestar took quick and light steps into the gathering place, letting her clan mates follow her. This would be the first gathering of her being a leader herself, and that worried her. It had not been too long since the clans had been taken back from the Dark Forest leaders, so she wondered who would be taking control of the clans now. The leader also wondered how SkyClan would also fit into the mix- there had always been four leaders.

With her head held high, Halestar made her way to the large stone overlooking the large clearing. She noticed a newer face above her before swiftly making her way up the jagged stone. It must have been Grousestar from Skyclan- the cat she had heard all about.

She looked back down at the cats who were now gathering beneath the stone and took a small breath...who would ShadowClan be allies with now? That was now for her to decide, and hopefully the clans she did ally with- were good and not corrupt.

[judas]

Littlepaw looked around in the clearing, sniffing the air around her. Grousestar had finally led them to the gathering. The Siberian she-cat bounced around as the other clans arrived. She looked around for Silverpaw. He has to be here! She thought. Littlepaw found a spot to sit looking around for Silverpaw. Meanwhile, Caramelcloud slowly approached the clearing. Her calico fur ruffled in the wind as she sat in the shade. Caramelcloud looked up at Grousestar, sniffing the air. She waved her tail, hoping the other clans wouldn't attack.
--
Darkoak walked behind Halestar. Tiny His apprentice and daughter followed behind. "Be careful kits. This is your first gathering. Don't get in truble.." He purred to his new kits. If only Moonfang was here with them instead of me

[Momotaro]

Inkclaw watched as the new clan entered the clearing-shadowclan. His lamplike eyes scanned the crowd. Will they be a threat or a friend? Many dark forest believers may be bitter at us, while those who were true of heart will respect us. Huh. We don't know. The sleek black tom walked towards a shadow clan cat, "Hello, my name is Inkclaw of sky clan, I'm pleased to make your acquaintance."

(Open)
Darkoak nodded at Inkclaw. "Darkoak..." He mewed quietly, slashing his tail. The tom gazed up at the leaders. "Skyclan, first gathering?" He mumbled. The Shadowclan warrior, looked over at Crystalpaw. He purred slightly. Littlepaw on the other hand was looking up at all the leaders. She purred happily, as More cats came. Come on Silverpaw! She walked over to Caramelcloud. The calico she-cat waved her tail. "I hope Grousestar won't anger them..." She mumbled. Caramelcloud sighed, clawing the ground.

[doghouse]

A large, thinly built ShadowClan warrior padded over, looking around. He didn't actually want to be here, but out of fake respect fore Halestar, as he didn't like Halestar any more than he liked StarClan, he had come. He glanced around, a rather angry, reluctant look on his grayish tabby face. Redpool's reddish colored ears were flat to his skull as he sat down, scuffing his paws in the dirt. One of the many reasons he hated StarClan was because Redmoon followed it, and Eaglesong, his daughter, also followed it. But StarClan was evil. They were out to taker over the living. How can't the others see that? He thought rather scornfully, a scowl on his face and his tail lashing back and forth.

[Momotaro]

Darkoak nodded at Inkclaw. "Darkoak..." He mewed quietly, slashing his tail. The tom gazed up at the leaders. "Skyclan, first gathering?" He mumbled. The Shadowclan warrior, looked over at Crystalpaw. He purred slightly. Littlepaw on the other hand was looking up at all the leaders. She purred happily, as More cats came. Come on Silverpaw!

"Yes, it is," The tom mewed calmly, he watched the shadow clan warrior gaze at a few apprentices, "Are those your kits? You must feel anxious, is this your first gathering?" Inkclaw questioned, staring at the warrior, he seems like a good cat, he may be an exception, we'll just have to wait and see...

[Mayflower]

Blackblaze padded around, marveling at the SeaStones. He looked around for some of his friends and Sandspeckle, as he couldn't see them around.

StarLightGlimmer Cedar Pink Orca!
(Sorry I roped you into this)

[Fallpotato]

Badgerclaw looked around at all the other cats. He had never felt so anxious in his life.

[judas]

"Yes, it is," The tom mewed calmly, he watched the shadow clan warrior gaze at a few apprentices, "Are those your kits? You must feel anxious, is this your first gathering?" Inkclaw questioned, staring at the warrior, he seems like a good cat, he may be an exception, we'll just have to wait and see...
Darkoak shiffled his paws when the other warrior mention the kits. "Y-Yeah..I adopted them after...there Mother died..during the Evil Era.." He shifted his weight to the side. Sapphirestorm wasn't even here to see his kits in the gathering. He was a better father then Sapphirestorm in his opinion. He had been there more. He had taken care of them during the Evil Era. Darkoak sighed, "What about you? You got kits?" he asked. His mind went back to Crystalpaw. She was like here mother, and he had the privilege of mentoring her. He loved the others, but Crystal was..different. She had accepted him as a father before Moonfang died.

[Nightpool]

Lumbering in awkwardly, Nightpool's fur jutted out from her frame. She joined the vast swath of cats that originated from ShadowClan, her only true home. She sat down, a mass of fur. As she waited for the Gathering to begin, she gave all of the warriors glances. Nightpool allowed herself to create a smaller disruption for the rest of the cats, shrinking her extraordinary, sizeable fur. It was igneous in its size, resembling a large night sky. She looked obediently up at the leaders, respecting them as if her heart had been enchanted by their ways. Nightpool nodded towards the younger cats as they waltzed in, and kept as much room as possible available beside her. She was possibly one of the largest elders. She craned her neck to give her pad a lick, drawing it over her face and cloaking it briefly. Halestar looked magnificent, although she still missed Timberstar.

She had a slight, normal feeling for this Gathering, as the announcement of other clans' would be as per usual. She still enjoyed being surrounded by the scent of her own clanmates much more than foreign cats' scents.

[Momotaro]

He loved the others, but Crystal was..different. She had accepted him as a father before Moonfang died.

"I'm sorry for your loss, it was our fault. but cats were suffering and we couldn't just stand by..." He gazed at the ground, these cats have a good reason to hate us, but this one decides totally to me... he is a good cat. He looked back up and touched his tail to the other toms shoulder. "Ive never had kits, i'm to busy worrying about my brother, as he acs like a kit! Ive never been a father, so I don't understand ho you feel. but think of the positives. Their mother will be watching over them; they will be safe, they will be happy."

"No..you all didn't do anything. It was those Dark forest cats." He hissed, clawing the ground under him. He sighed, releasing his claws. "Anyway thanks to your warriors Blazingash is gone." He mewed. "I never did trust her." Darkoak mewed. He sighed, lashing his tail. "I guess...Moonfang was a good cat." He purred, think of the last moments with her. She was happy, he had protected her. Darkoak looked around as more cats sat down.
--
Meanwhile, Littlepaw and Caramelcloud sat in the clearing.
(Both of these guys are open!)

[Frosty]

A small black and white apprentice sat on the edge of the groups with a fluffy black warrior . "this is your first gathering, correct?" The black warrior asked in an almost inaudible voice. Gatherings made her nervous due to all the other cats, but they were nice to be at to understand what was going on .

The apprentice nodded . "yes Blackrose " she answered , trying to contain the absolute excitement from her voice. Blackrose cracked the tiniezst smile at her first apprentice. "Calm down Frostpaw " she quietly giggled , her dull eyes gleaming with amusement . Frostpaw shrugged and looked out over the cats that were there. 'I wonder where sapphirepaw is. I didn't see him leave the camp, but maybe i just wasn't looking in the right place 'Frostpaw thought, frowning slightly. But it was quickly replaced with another smile as she remembered the excitement . "may I go walk around?" She asked, looking up at her silent mentor . Blackrose nodded and watched frostpaw bound off towards the small crowd

Blackrose watched her apprentice carefully , glad that the small cat was injoying herself. 'At least someone is having fun . I can't even have a simple conversation with another warrior from my own clan!' She growled in her mind . she sat down and closed her eyes, waiting for the rest of the leaders to arrive, hoping she didn't look odd being quiet and away from everyone else with a awkward expression

(Both of these guys are open!)

The pure-black tom smiled softly, "Its ok to feel angry, anyway, i'd prefer it if I could go, it would be pointless to talk with one cat all gathering, farewell." Inkclaw sneaked off looking for another cat, golden orbs scanning the clearing. Darkoak is a good cat, I do hope I won't have to meet him in battle. I wish him good-luck.

(Now open.)

[Static]

Wren wing looked at the cats around her a little skitish.she had been to a lot of gathering but this was after the evil era.and with a new leader.her tail twitched nervously hoping there would be no problums

(Now open.)
Darkoak said farewell to the cat. Inkheart was a nice warrior. He walked away, looking for a nice spot to sit. He sat near the front of the clearing. He had a good view leaders. He sighed, seeing Grousestar and Halestar talk. Darkoak flicked his tail, "Moonfang...I think your kits are having a good time.." He smiled. He thought about the kits, and Stormpelt. He purred, remembering when they were first born. He laughed slightly. (Open!)

[HwangHarin]

Sharppaw sat down, alone from the group of cats. He glanced around seeing if there was anyone from his clan, or another clan he could talk to.

[lone]

{Open Post}

Clawpaw sat in a comfortable spot of the territory, her expression calm and serene. As far as it appeared, there was no way to get this she cat worked up. To those who knew her, however, that was not so...she was quite the sharp tongued young she cat. To her, the Gathering didn't have much significance. Making friends with cats in other clans didn't matter at all to her...she really couldn't have cared less about meeting the other cats in other Clans. However, she was looking forwards to maybe learning a little about them...and who knows? Perhaps they would surprise her. There had to be at least one cat who would be interesting. She sort of doubted it- that was just part of her personality. Maybe Raccoonpaw will be here. Or that other apprentice, what's his name...Cedarpaw? At least they aren't boring and annoying like most of the other cats. Hope there'll be some cat here who is at least a little interesting. Or someone I can have some fun with. Clawpaw thought with a smirk. It was hard to tell just what was going on inside the she cat's mind from her expression, but there was no denying that it wasn't the kindest thing...whatever it was. Clawpaw yawned, ivory fangs flashing as she did so. She was an attractive young she cat...and she liked to take advantage of that fact. It certainly helped her to have fun. She waited for some cat to notice her- she wasn't the easiest cat to miss. Still, with so many cats around...it could be easy to miss her in the crowd. The white furred she cat curled her fluffy tail around her paws. Despite her thick white pelt, she hated the cold. Snowflakes always stuck to her pelt and soaked it through...and because of how thick it was, her pelt could hold quite a bit of water. However, it seemed to weigh it down and it made her uncomfortable. Clawpaw flicked some snowflakes off of her pelt, frustrated with the way that they stuck to her.

[toriel]

Bearclaw entered the gathering and looked around. where is she he thought. Bearclaw looked up at the stars. hmm i guess thunderclan is not here yet he thought. And so, he went to a little patch of grass and sat down.

[NightWarrior4Life]

VelvetNight and HarmonyBlade kept to the back of the groups of cats, hoping they and their strange smells wouldn't be noticed. They were determined to find any WindClan cats who may have information about their three kits. Then, as she was looking around, she picked up the scent. The same scent that had filled her nose when she was on that territory with the kits. "WindClan! This way!" She pointed her ears forward and slightly to the left, stealthily padding past gossiping warriors and apprentices.

Stormtail looked at the two strange cat, she had left the kits at Windclan, those cats seemed to be heading towards a cluster of Windclan cats..... "Hello, why are you looking for Windclan, I'm a Windclan cat." She kept the tone casual but she stared at them with a menacing look in her eye. These cats left defenceless kits on their own...

(We should probably RP in the nursery so StormTail can say she's leaving them to go to the gathering...)
VelvetNight didn't pay attention to where she was heading and bumped into the WindClan warrior. "You're from WindClan? Fantastic! Do you know anything about three rogue kits? Recently found in the territory? GleamKit, ShineKit and AcornKit, two fingers one grey...have you seen them or heard anything?"
"Please we need to know where they are and how safe and healthy they are..." HarmonyBlade said, panicked then he looked StormTail in the eyes,genuinely and purely. "Look, we desperately need to find these kits...my mate and I made a big mistake a few moons ago, we wanna fix it..." He sighed

(We should...)

"They're all fine. No thanks to you. They nearly died from the cold! They're true Windclan cats now, and they're not going back to the parents that left them to die." She growled scathingly, anger bubbling through her veins. Who do they think they are!?

VelvetNight looked like she was going to say something then stopped with a sigh "HarmonyBlade, explain it to her..."
"I promise you, we didn't do it on purpose not did we want to..."

[Slash-GNR]

NineTailsNetwork (Jason)

Burntwhisker looked around at the shuffling cats. She heard that there was going to be a gathering taking place soon. She couldn't wait! There was finally going to be a gathering. There hadn't been one in a long time. She then remembered Foxclaw. She looked around for him hoping to lay her hazel hues on the tom.

[judas]

(Has Thunderclan, Windclan, and Riverclan came yet?))
Littlepaw began to become bored. Her grey tail lashed around. She sighed, blue orbs gazed around. Clawed the ground, pawing a pebble. Littlepaw looked around once more. Silverpaw still isn't here.
Darkoak walked around also, being to annoyed to think. The other clans weren't here yet. The Tabby sighed, finding a new place to sit.

[FOXXRR]

There hadn't been one in a long time. She then remembered Foxclaw. She looked around for him hoping to lay her hazel hues on the tom.
and right on time, Foxclaw appears... although looking a bit wary. He looked around for where Burntwhisker might be, and found her right away. He carefully dodged all the strange cats along with some familiar ones to approach her. "Hello," He simply meowed, "What's with the crowd?" He clearly forgot what a gathering was.
(Whoops, forgot to see the first page....)

[Fallpotato]

badgerclaw sat down and yawned. He looked around at all the different cats.

[Momotaro]

VelvetNight looked like she was going to say something then stopped with a sigh "HarmonyBlade, explain it to her..."
"I promise you, we didn't do it on purpose not did we want to..."

Stormtail glared at them, "Then why did you do it! You threw away helpless kit!"

[Slash-GNR]

The she-cat saw Foxclaw and she smiled. She purred as he greeted her, "There is going to be a Gathering soon. We just need the leader," she responded back to him. She licked his shoulder happy to see he was ok from his breathing attack.

[Casual Scribbles]

Frostedflight padded up to seastones. With a little imagination, he could still smell Rainberry's scent on the rocks. The long-haired tom looked around for his new mate, but RiverClan did not seem to have arrived yet. He took a spot near the back so no cat would look at him suspiciously. The black-and-white Turkish Van cat craned his neck in the direction of RiverClan to watch for their approach.

[Nightpool]

Nightpool was slightly bewildered at the cats swarming around her. It had been so long since the elderly molly had been to a Gathering, and she saw so many neoteric faces. Looking down through her thick, black fur, she saw the dilapidated ground, trodden many times by cats whose names were renowned as ancient now. Felines before her, and before all of the times in which the cats present now lived. The pelage on her neck rose when any cat dared approach her, and her claws grated the ground. She felt safe only in the presence of ShadowClan cats, and although the leaders of other clans' were equally divine and sacrosanct, she still cowered under their presence. She may be old, but what was she while they were coetaneous; present? She saw ambitious apprentices, noble warriors, and even cultivated medicine cats, but she didn't belong here. She sighed, waiting for anyone, anyone to come and talk to her. Nightpool flexed her claws tiredly.

Most of these cats she barely knew. The uproariousness of the clearing rang uncomfortably in the sable molly's ears, and they flattened against her pulchritudinous skull. She marvelled at the excitement and energy of some young cats, while she frowned at the disapproving glares others gave. Her downy tail flickered like an ebony flame.

[Fel]

[riverclan has arrived! riverclan cats may post in the gathering.]

[judas]

Moonpaw ran into the clearing, pushing several cats out of her way. She looked around, lashing her tail like crazy. She purred as she looked at all the other leaders. Then reality hit her like a cold stone in her heart. Foxpelt wasn't here, Gooseheart was. She slowed down and sighed, but Gooseheart was still there for her. Even if she was her new mentor. Wildpaw would be here to, but after the fight she didn't know if he would talk to her. She sat near a few other cats, flicking her tail.

@Mottlebird I guess will finish are rp after the gathering ^.^))

[Ludicrous Lunacy]

Silverpaw sat, feeling extrememely nervous. The cat, who had so recently gone to live in RiverClan, could hardly feel at home amidst all the cats. He looked aroung hopefully for a familiar face--Littlepaw, maybe--but with no avail

A dark tabby entered with her apprentice, Silverpaw, and sat, coldly watching through her reddish black-brown eyes. The black tabby wrapped her tail over her paws and straightened herself.
(Open)

[NightWarrior4Life]

Stormtail glared at them, "Then why did you do it! You threw away helpless kit!"
"Because we were forced to! They weren't safe...you see, we love each other bla bla bla...and there's this other Tom, CrispLeaf...he felt he was rightfully her mate...don't ask...he started getting really violent with us and threatened to hurt me if I didn't stay away from her...at this point, VelvetNight was already heavily pregnant with my kits. We knew if CrispLeaf saw, he'd kill them...so we took them to the clans where we knew they'd be safe...but ever since we've wanted to rebuild things with them...make sure they're okay, apologise...now she's given birth to CrispLeaf kits...we regret everything...we just want our kits back!
They deserve to know the truth...we want them to come back..."
"Please! Whoever you are, we don't want to hurt anyone...we just want to know where they are!" They wailed together, sounding so pathetic.

[Silhouettes]

Aashka
Fawnpaw, along with the other Riverclan cats, strode into the place. The scents overwhelmed the molly, whom had never entered a Gathering. 'Shadowclans here...' she mouthed, before a thought hit her. 'Maybe Sharppaw is here!'
Looking around for the tom, she stared to trott around, looking her apex this way and that.

[mapledash]

Wildpaw walked behind his clanmates, moonpaw at his side. He didn't dare tell her anything, in case she did an other crisis like the last time he spoke to her. He'd rather leave her alone for the moment, let her speak to the other clans and her other friends before trying to say anything. He'd have to make friends too, but also be very carefull. The Evil era might be over, but no one knows if the new leaders of Shadowclan, thunderclan and Windclan were any better.

He silently stepped in the clearing and raised his head only to be surprised by ... Skyclan? --Uh ho. This will not make everyone happy.-- he thought. The skyclan leader was standing with what seemed to be Shadowclan's cats. So much for moonpaw talking to friends, this was off to a bad start. He took a deep breath and stepped down with a bounce.

[Nightpool]

Ploverflight walked into the Gathering, following his respective leader, Russetstar. He severed himself from the group, but he couldn't stop his looking back to make sure that Ebonyscar was there. The smoky grey tom's lofty tail was high in the air, but drooped when he realized that they weren't antecedent to the other clans. He scurried in anxiously, ducking behind another cat and hiding himself. He then glissaded to his spot, and flicked his fluffy tail for Ebonyscar to join him. He simply didn't feel comfortable with any other cat.

He looked around, noting the presence of SkyClan and ShadowClan. They seemed to be the first two clans to arrive. Luckily, though, RiverClan wasn't the last. Being very dogmatic, Ploverflight found being last dishonourable. He tamed his fur with his pink, sandpaper rough tongue, and looked once more at Ebonyscar. Afraid that she would notice that his attention was being directed mainly to her, he averted his gaze to leer at Russetstar. Ploverflight always wished to be like him. He looked into the air, then at the rest of the cats in the clearing, joining RiverClan. They were from diverse, various different clans. Endemic, however, to their clan, were their sleek pelts, and it made them look heavenly in the moonlight as they entered. Ploverflight purred at their arrival.

Fawnpaw, along with the other Riverclan cats, strode into the place. The scents overwhelmed the molly, whom had never entered a Gathering. 'Shadowclans here...' she mouthed, before a thought hit her. 'Maybe Sharppaw is here!'
Looking around for the tom, she stared to trott around, looking her apex this way and that.

Sharppaw glanced around, seeing that Riverclan finally came, the Shadowclan tom opened his mouth, hoping it would help him find Fawnpaw, then he saw her and grinned, and patted up to the molly.

Sharppaw glanced around, seeing that Riverclan finally came, the Shadowclan tom opened his mouth, hoping it would help him find Fawnpaw, then he saw her and grinned, and patted up to the molly.
The brown and white whipped around to see the tom. "Sharppaw!" She mewed excitedly. "Is this your first Gathering?" She asked, hoping that no one would ask since neither had been, though the molly thought it was kind to ask.

Sharppaw laughed, " Ya, it is." He meowed

[Silhouettes]

Sharppaw laughed, " Ya, it is." He meowed
"Anyway, how's Shadowclan?" She continued, flicking her tail. "Russststar is the new Leader of Riverclan, and she has yet to name a deputy." She finished, nodding to the tabby tom whom was sitting down.

[Screw colors on mobile, I'll edit it home ]
Littlepaw was happy to see Silverpaw's face in the crowed. She casually walked over to him. "Silverpaw right? I'm Littlepaw." She mewed, hoping Silverpaw would catch what she was doing. She sat down and looked around. She gazed at the leaders, "Russetstar is your leader, right?" She asked.
--
Moonpaw gazed at Wildpaw. "First Gathering, you excited?" She asked. The Silver warrior tried not to alarm him. She sighed, looking down at the ground. Moonpaw, looked up at Russetstar. "You think Russetstar will get nervous and mess this uo or no?" She laughed.

[lyra]

Frostedflight padded up to seastones. With a little imagination, he could still smell Rainberry's scent on the rocks. The long-haired tom looked around for his new mate, but RiverClan did not seem to have arrived yet. He took a spot near the back so no cat would look at him suspiciously. The black-and-white Turkish Van cat craned his neck in the direction of RiverClan to watch for their approach.

The silver British short hairs entered the place where the gathering was held. She was glad that she had chosen to come, as Frostedflight would be there and she wouldn't have to deal with Willowsong who chose to stay at camp with her friend. Maybe he wouldn't be angry if she told Gentlemist and Willowsong about their secret relationship? But it was called secret for a reason. Therefore Rainberry wouldn't tell anyone else. And as long as Fallenspirit doesn't tell anybody then we're fine, She thought in a relieved way. Looking around through the crowd of cats, Rainberry finally spotted a black and white pelt. "Frostedflight!" She meowed as she bounded up to him, though trying not to show a very friendly face as a cat might notice something was going on. "Hi," The silver cat said, a smile on her face.

Blazingstorm headed towards the group of cats, his head and tail high, his thick pelt smooth. He has to represent Windclan this gathering, Dapplestar wasn't able to attend. Sure it didn't look good, but everyone knew the she cat was expecting kits so he'd just play it off like that was the reason. As he mingled in with the rest of the cats around him, he felt nervous. He had to speak in front of them all, he had to look and sound good. He had to make the clan seem strong after the dark era. Blazingstorm took a deep breath then padded towards the other leaders, his golden hues bright with welcome and respect.

Wren wing yawned and finally settled down seeing the clans together.she licked her lips but remains solitary.

Weasel tail watched the deputy but remained solitary.she was not very talkative to cats.she rarley trusted anyone who was not her friend.she recalled how she could have died if the sky clan cat would not have saved her a few moons ago during the war.she stretched and settled down under a tree enjoying the moon light

Leapingfawn settled next to her Clanmates, her eyes shone.

A small frame slipped through the entrance of the camp. Shiverlight one of shadowclans Warriors made her way to join the Shadowclan party. She wondered how many changes occurred since the battle. Considering most of the leaders were killed off and or exiled. She also expected to see lesser numbers then usual. Lashing her tail the blue coloured warrior slipped into the party near center and came to a seated position.

She admired the fact that halestar looked confident enough in her own Abilties and came up to her proper position. Hopefully no hostility breaks out. Considering that most of these leaders appear new. Even some of the deputies seem new. Not that I really cared for those other high ranks in clans. Just interesting.

Ploverflight walked into the Gathering, following his respective leader, Russetstar. He severed himself from the group, but he couldn't stop his looking back to make sure that Ebonyscar was there. The smoky grey tom's lofty tail was high in the air, but drooped when he realized that they weren't antecedent to the other clans. He scurried in anxiously, ducking behind another cat and hiding himself. He then glissaded to his spot, and flicked his fluffy tail for Ebonyscar to join him. He simply didn't feel comfortable with any other cat.

He looked around, noting the presence of SkyClan and ShadowClan. They seemed to be the first two clans to arrive. Luckily, though, RiverClan wasn't the last. Being very dogmatic, Ploverflight found being last dishonourable. He tamed his fur with his pink, sandpaper rough tongue, and looked once more at Ebonyscar. Afraid that she would notice that his attention was being directed mainly to her, he averted his gaze to leer at Russetstar. Ploverflight always wished to be like him. He looked into the air, then at the rest of the cats in the clearing, joining RiverClan. They were from diverse, various different clans. Endemic, however, to their clan, were their sleek pelts, and it made them look heavenly in the moonlight as they entered. Ploverflight purred at their arrival.

Ebonyscar padded behind the raven tom. She swayed her tail back and forth trying to hide her mauled face. She looked around at the other cats beside her as she continued along. Once they reached the meeting area she scanned the gathering place. She spotted unknown faces and faces she had watched from the shadows. She then spotted Ploverflight beckoning her to come sit by him. She trotted over and sat by the tom. She could feel his yellow gaze burning into her pelt. She smiled at the thought. She then turned her head to the grooming male, "Have you ever been to one of these things?" she asked flicking her tail tip.

Ploverflight nodded, still trying to get used to this interacting gig. "Yeah," he said. "I went when I was an apprentice, and when I was a warrior." Ploverflight gave a nictate of his verdurous green eyes. They managed to look into Ebonyscar's eyes for a prodigious record of 1.5 seconds! How amazing, he thought sarcastically, embarrassed with himself. Nonetheless, he liked sitting next to the she-cat much more than sitting next to any other cat so far. He made sure that he wasn't abutting Ebonyscar, a phrase which here means "sitting too close". The raven tomcat managed a purr, and shut his eyes succinctly. His eyes trained on the great leaders, standing upon their perches, and awaited the juncture whence they would begin speaking of the wondrous tales of their clans - not tales, but truth. Rid of flagitious leaders, he hoped... his knowledge and memory was far less than perfect.

Leapingfawn nods to the cat, her eyes warm. She then turns her attention back to the gathering.

Arrowtwist strutted confidently towards the other cats, a soft smirk on her face. Her blueish silver eyes scanned the mass of felines with a longing look . oh how badly she wanted to sink her claws into ones pelt just to start a fight . But even she knew better, there were too many cats here. The beautiful young she cat sat down , smiling and waiting for the gathering to start. 'This should be fun! ' she thought, eyes flashing boldly .

Her reddish ginger tail swished behind her . The reckless Arrowtwist was slowly starting to get bored, but didn't let it show. There was such a lack of excitement (at least by her standards ) that the thought of starting a fight was getting more and more appealing as time passed. 'Maybe im wrong, maybe this will be horrendously boring. Or maybe im weven more wrong. This could possoibly end up exciting . but if not, ill !make it fun ' . despite the thought being silent, she let out a soft and beautiful cackle to herself

Littlepaw was happy to see Silverpaw's face in the crowed. She casually walked over to him. "Silverpaw right? I'm Littlepaw." She mewed, hoping Silverpaw would catch what she was doing. She sat down and looked around. She gazed at the leaders, "Russetstar is your leader, right?" She asked.
--
Moonpaw gazed at Wildpaw. "First Gathering, you excited?" She asked. The Silver warrior tried not to alarm him. She sighed, looking down at the ground. Moonpaw, looked up at Russetstar. "You think Russetstar will get nervous and mess this uo or no?" She laughed.
He jumped a little and looked confused for a heartbeat before catching on and replying, "Oh, right... Yeah." Dropping his voice to a whisper, he added, "After the gathering, I could show you the tunnel before going home." Rising his voice to normal again, he said, "And is that your leader? Grousestar?"

The cinnamon brown apprentice flattned his ears and looked around, trying to spot a group of apprentices he could interact with, that or a young warrior, just someone, it didn't matter who, he just didn't want to sit by himself. The Young Riverclan tom stopped, his head swiveling around as he tried to find someone who looked nice enough to speak with him, share a little of their time with him, he just wanted to make new friends, that and this is his first gathering, he wants to start off his apprentice days with absolute joy and confidence.

Flicking her tail impatiently shiverlight happened to notice a small cinomin brown Tom enter the clearing, she focused her golden gaze on the Tom before curling her tail around her paws. Singling out the Tom she attempted depict the clan he originated from. After a while. She figured. Riverclan. Her scent glands then calmed and she settled. "You" she suddnely called out to grab the apprentices attention. Maybe an apprentice. She didint know. She got up and padded over to him trying to put a friendly face on. "Do you know who Charmpelt is?" she asked softly eyeing the cat trying not to look dark and intimidating. "I mean, I'm shiverlight and I was wondering if you knew wether or not charmpelt is coming?" she meows softly. She wasn't really wanting him to be here.

The young tom whipped his head around at a rather loud call, not knowing if it was directed to him or not, but he decided to look anyways. He felt slight relief and slight fear once he realized that it was or him, unsure as to why she was so interested in hm, possibly for his looks, he did look quite odd compared to all the other Riverclan cats. His dark blue hues focused on the warrior, he began to process her question, picutes of all the Riverclan cats he knew popped up in his mind, after a few seconds he shook his head "No I don't know her, and I don't believe she's coming, I didn't hear Russetstar call her name as we were about to leave." he stated, his fur fluffing up as an icy wind blew past, he was still cold even though his fur was fairly thick, made him putty the shorter furred cats.

Shiverlight expressed a deep chuckle and looked away for a brief moment. Trying to contain the laughter that could break out in a matter of seconds. The apprentice perceived charmpelt as a girl. Next time she saw him that would be the starter for conversation. Finally grabbing a hold of herself she turned back to face the Tom."thank you...?

Emberdust was sitting near the edge, watching the cats cluster, chat, laugh, noting who she should be wary of, and who she should get along nicely with.

She turned her attention to her brother, an encouraging smile flashed his way before she looked back down at the crowd of cats, a neutral, half smile plastered on her face as she watched cats interact, she was particularly interested in pin pointing th Skyclan cats, she wanted to see Howe they walked, how they talked, the way they moved, and what set them apart from the other clans, she wanted to know.

Spottedstone sat alone with his tail wrapped around his paws neatly. Every once in a while he'd shift his shoulders, it feeling weird having a new scar. The tom looked around for any cat he had met. He was sort of excited to see all the different cats here but he didn't want to walk around and search, feeling a bit uncomfortable with all the cats around. He glanced around, but he wasn't sure if he recognized any cats or not.

('Nother open rp.)
Flowerpaw looked down, her mind clouded with thoughts. With lazy eyes she looked around at all the cats. This isn't right... she thought to herself. Weaselpaw should be here with me. She glanced around for her mentor, Treehopper having left her as soon as they arrived. The calico wrapped her tail around herself like a scared kit, wishing she had someone next to her so she wouldn't feel as nervous.

Then swallowing down the lump in her throat she smiles and her tail lashed back and fourth in amusement. "Nice to meet you elm.. Paw" she finished with a huge enphisis on paw. Strangely the she cat believed the Tom to be warrior aged or just newly made warrior. Eh looked mature. With no kitten fluff let on his ears or flanks just slick warrior fur. He was a big apprentice too,"shiverlight" she meows. Sitting down next to the apprenitce and curling her tail around her paws watching him for a second to see if he did the same.

The silver British short hairs entered the place where the gathering was held. She was glad that she had chosen to come, as Frostedflight would be there and she wouldn't have to deal with Willowsong who chose to stay at camp with her friend. Maybe he wouldn't be angry if she told Gentlemist and Willowsong about their secret relationship? But it was called secret for a reason. Therefore Rainberry wouldn't tell anyone else. And as long as Fallenspirit doesn't tell anybody then we're fine, She thought in a relieved way. Looking around through the crowd of cats, Rainberry finally spotted a black and white pelt. "Frostedflight!" She meowed as she bounded up to him, though trying not to show a very friendly face as a cat might notice something was going on. "Hi," The silver cat said, a smile on her face.

Frostedflight nearly beamed in her direction, but caught himself and managed to keep his composure. "Hello, Rainberry," he meowed evenly, but winked and twitched the corner of his mouth up to let her know he was acting. "How is everything at RiverClan?" It was an innocent enough question.

The dark grey tom's yellow hues scanned the area. He could see a she cat, a white mackerel tabby...she looked nice. But she wouldn't want me to bother her. And I'm scared. To talk to her I mean. And I, I wouldn't want to anyway b-because I might mess things up worse... Graystep thought. His yellow hues landed on Owlwing and he shifted his weight awkwardly as he glanced over at her.

The nineteen, almost twenty, moon old cat stood up on her light soft paws and stretched, her back arching. She began padding away towards the edge of the clearing, wanting to walk around a bit before the gathering started. 'I was right, this is boring' the unamused she cat thought silently

And Skyclan seems like pretty cool clan as well."

SpiceLeaf, a RiverClan warrior, Sat at the edge of the clearing, avoiding gazes of cats, she just went along with many other cats in the gathering clearing, wrapping her tail around her paws, her amber gaze scanned the clearing to gaze about at talking cats, she hadn't been much into the activity of conversation, she just liked to obey orders or be loyal, she wasn't much a fun Molly, in fact she was quite boring. she imagined trying to have fun, almost gagging at the feeling, why am i so boring? why can't i be normal? she questioned herself and scuffled her paws in the dirt, shifting uneasily at her insecure feelings, swallowing back a hiss of frustration she continued her quiet game at the loud gathering.

Owlwing stared around, tail quivering as she watched cats chat, and laugh.
She didn't want to join in, much rather fine thinking, alone, away from everyone. It seemed peaceful, for now. Then, she heard a noise of approach, ears perked up alertly. Who was....The molly thought as she turned toward the tom, wary eyes flashing in suspicion, fur bristling in clear alarm. But, it seemed the tom was as scared as she was of him, so she relaxed. Strange, I'm usually the...one scared...She thought, looking relaxed, but wary. "Err...hello.." Owlwing spoke, tail quivering nervously, like like when she came to this..gathering. The wary warrior wasn't sure about this tom, but knew that he didn't come up to her to harm her, like her father did. Her father.... That wretched tom, she didn't even want to think about him, anymore. Owlwing wanted to let go of it, to forget the memories, all of it, but it always haunted her anyways. The molly felt frustrated, as she always did about this memories.

The she-cat stayed silent for a few moments, and then not waiting for an answer said, "I'm glad that the evil leaders are gone. They caused a lot trouble. And Skyclan seems like pretty cool clan as well."

"ShadowClan is doing well." He paused, listening to her comment. "I'm glad too, though I wish that Blazingnight hadn't had to die."

Littlepaw was happy to see Silverpaw's face in the crowed. She casually walked over to him. "Silverpaw right? I'm Littlepaw." She mewed, hoping Silverpaw would catch what she was doing. She sat down and looked around. She gazed at the leaders, "Russetstar is your leader, right?" She asked.
--
Moonpaw gazed at Wildpaw. "First Gathering, you excited?" She asked. The Silver warrior tried not to alarm him. She sighed, looking down at the ground. Moonpaw, looked up at Russetstar. "You think Russetstar will get nervous and mess this uo or no?" She laughed.

Wildpaw couldn't hide his relief when moonpaw spoke to him directly. At least she wasn't angry anymore, or she seemed not to be. "A bit nervous but I'll survive. Are YOU excited?" he asked. His attention was dragged to his leader, now heading towards the other leaders already in place. He heard his friend speak to him once again, and his ear flicked with the stimulus. "I don't think anyone can mess this up considering what happened last time. Suposedly bucknight and blazingnight cursed starclan at the last gathering. It can't get worse, right?" he meowed with slight humor, thinking less about the emotional well being of his friend and more of his own. Now that they were here, he wanted to meet new apprentices from the other clans. What else could they do but hear about the other clans? "Why don't we go meet shadowclan's apprentices?" he asked happily, bouncing around moonpaw like he usualy did.

[monfang]

The crazy elder walked amongst the clan cats. Late as usual.
"Asante sana!
Squash banana!
We we nugu!
Mi mi apana!"
He chanted this as he made his way to the front. The British Shorthair laughed and sang quietly through out the entire gathering.

Rich amber eyes wondered the densely-packed clearing, accompanied by pointed ears and shuffling feet. It was the tomcat's first gathering, and he'd seem nothing like it. Not once in his six moons of life had he seen so many felines scrunched in one area. Not to mention the leaders high above, looming over their warriors powerful and strong. Plumpaw's gaze glowed with awe, his whiskers twitching with anticipation. As the gathering drawled on, however, he grew increasingly bored. Maybe some other apprentice would talk to him? He could use the pointers, if it was some cat older than him. He was new to the whole "getting up at the break of dawn and training all day" thing. He shook out his soft brown pelt, his tail curling around his paws to fight the rigid winter cold.

[Frosty]

Through the clusters and bunches of cats scrambled a small blue eyed she-apprentice . It was her second gathering, yet it felt just as difficult to socialize and get around as her first. After breaking through the crowd she looked absolutely flustered and out of breath. Her paws trembled beneath her grey swirled body . Everpaw was one of those more bubbly apprentices , but even the amount of cats at gatherings made her soft fluffy paws feel as though large boulders were anchored to them .

"Deep breaths. Its only other cats . just like you . everything will be fine " The apprentice said in a soft voice that only she could hear, smiling to herself as she began walking around the smaller groups of felines on the outskirts of the clearing , looking for someone to conversate with until the gathering was officially announced started by the leaders , which shouldn't be too much longer she hoped. Also, the possible idea of a new freind was very inviting and tempting . so while mainly focusing on her first mission of not getting trampled and to strike a conversation with someone, she kept in mind that it would be nice to have another cat to call freind

Open to anyone

[monfang]

Littlepaw looked around in the clearing, sniffing the air around her. Grousestar had finally led them to the gathering. The Siberian she-cat bounced around as the other clans arrived. She looked around for Silverpaw. He has to be here! She thought. Littlepaw found a spot to sit looking around for Silverpaw. Meanwhile, Caramelcloud slowly approached the clearing. Her calico fur ruffled in the wind as she sat in the shade. Caramelcloud looked up at Grousestar, sniffing the air. She waved her tail, hoping the other clans wouldn't attack.
--
Darkoak walked behind Halestar. Tiny His apprentice and daughter followed behind. "Be careful kits. This is your first gathering. Don't get in truble.." He purred to his new kits. If only Moonfang was here with them instead of me
Crystalpaw nodded.

Sapphirepaw scoffed. "Trouble? Please..." he meowed cockily. Crystal whacked him with her tail and giggled. "Hey, that ain't cool!" he growled.

Lunapaw and Gneisspaw rolled their eyes as they kept walking, and Dustpaw lead the way with pride. He was always prideful being the first-born.

[Frosty]

A black and white head bobbed through the sea of cats. Frostpaw was still looking for sapphirepaw, yet unsuccessfully finding him. Ever since her confrontation with him and admitting her feelings for the slightly older tom she had felt as hough her head was in the clouds.

As she continued her search she growled quietly. "Where is he!?" She muttered to herself

Sapphirepaw turned his head to a slight muttering that sounded familiar. He caught the sight of Frostpaw and smiled. Bounding to her he jumped to her side and smiled. "Hello Frost." he mewed.

"Hello goofball." another familiar voice said, and he groaned and Moonapw giggled. "What? Not happy to see me with your girrrrlfrieeeeend?" she teased.

Frostpaw rolled her eyes at her sister before smiling at sapphirepaw. "Hello sapphire . howve you been?" She asked, blue eyes sparkling. She gently nudged him in a playful manner, her smile growing . leave it to Sapphire to be the one popping out of nowhere exavtyly when she was looking for him . The thought only made the apprentice smile more and let out a soft giggle

"Fine. I'm just hangin' with my sis. If you would see her, you'd see how much she resembles mom. The only difference is her blue eyes." he meowed. "And our 'new father' has grown attached to her as well. There was always a thing between him and mom too." he chuckled. "Oh, and I saw a few friends from WindClan, and they told me that Surgestorm would be picking an apprentice in a moon or so. It's quite funny because there has been a rumor that an apprentice has gotten injured the same reason he did, and they grown attached, it's quite funny." he rambled about all the news he heard, being friends with all clan cats like his mother once was.

(all open!)

Padding into her first Gathering since becoming a full fledged ThunderClan apprentice - and apparently the first Gathering since what her Clan was calling the "evil era" had begun - Sorrelpaw stopped dead in her tracks, her eyes stretched wide as she gazed around at all the cats that were present. She knew that there were a lot of cats, but great StarClan! She slowly began to pad forward once more, jaw slightly agape as she took in the scenery around her. Quickly, she scanned the mingling cats for anyone she knew - Maplefall, Silvercloud, Larkflight, Stormpaw - but saw neither of them among the shrouds of bodies that mixed and mingled in the large clearing.

Crestpaw bounded into the clearing as WindClan surged through, his bright blue eyes lit up with excitement. This was his second Gathering, as it had been awhile since his first - since before the evil era when he was first named an apprentice. "Oh my gosh!" he exclaimed, whiskers quivering in excitement. He was used to how many cats would be there, but with the addition to SkyClan it seemed as though a hundred more cats where there, blowing the tom's mind! Clearing his throat and realizing that he was probably acting like a kit, Crestpaw gave a few quick licks to his fluffed up chest fur to make himself more presentable before striding through the clearing, head held high and delivering curtious and kind nods to each feline he passed. Despite the fact that Dapplestar was not hear, and the newly appointed Blazingstorm was anointed to take her place for tonight's Gathering, the young tom knew it was important to keep up appearances, and for all the other Clan's new, WindClan was stronger than ever since driving out Singenight, Fennelstrike, and Sorrelskip - the whole rotten crew.

Padding in side by side, each with a weary expression on their faces, were Shalefur and Larkflight. The two RiverClan warriors stopped near the entrance, surveying the clearing of gathered cats. Larkflight's hackles were raised just a bit - she was a bit suspicious of her rival Clans now after everything had settled, and sincerely hoped there were no more rats hiding in the dark corners of each Clan. With the addition of SkyClan, it added to her suspicions, despite the fact that it had been the new Clan that had liberated RiverClan from the cruel grip of Bucknight. As much as she had admired the young leader, she unfortunately along with other good warriors had been brainwashed into following his lead due to her RiverClan loyalty running deep within her veins. Beside Larkflight, Shalefur had a completely different expression residing on his face as his gaze rested on the RiverClan leader. He let a small sight slip from his lips and he quickly dropped his gaze. Just before the Gathering, he and Russetstar had planned to go out on patrol together, however just before they were to head out, the new leader had gotten pulled away to deal with other pressing matters, leaving Shalefur to do a solo hunting patrol for himself. Without a further word, the tom broke away from Larkflight and disappeared, only flicking an ear in acknowledgement as Larkflight called after him, "Keep your head up!". The RiverClan she-cat sighed as she watched Shalefur disappear, wondering exactly what was bugging him.

Bursting into the large clearing, locked into a fierce paly-fight were two ShadowClan apprentices - Tigerpaw and Minkpaw. A flurry of fur and claws tumbled into the clearing, just a brown blur as it rolled past the gathered cats. It appeared as if Tigerpaw had the upper hand since she was older and obviously more experienced. However for anyone who was perhaps watching closely, Minkpaw had a gleam in her eye as she studying the situation. In a flash, the kicked out a hind paw and tripped up Tigerpaw, sending her sprawling off and rolling away. "Ha!" Minkpaw yowled and zipped up, pouncing onto Tigerpaw in the next heartbeat, pinning her down with impressive strength. Beneath her, Tigerpaw's sides heaved with each breath she took while Minkpaw just laughed, head all the way tilted back.

The Shadowclan Tabby padded into the group of cats, her tail swaying in excitement. It was her first time at a gathering, and she couldn't wait to go meet some cats. Owlpaw looked around hastily, then walking into the direction where she saw some warriors head off to. She swished her tail high in the air and mewed silently. Looking around, she saw many apprentices, warriors and some elders at the gathering. Its just so exciting!
She smiled and took off to go have a look if she could find a group she wanted to talk with. Wind blew in her whiskers, a wave of excitement flowed through her like the ocean. Owlpaw couldn't wait to talk to some cat.

"That's nice. I'm sure they'll make a good medicine cat apprentice iif they are picked. But if not , I'm sure whoever he does choose will be worthy of the role. Or at least I hope, for the sake of windclan . " Frostpaw meowed in return , thinking thoughtfully at windclan . She remembered something she heard from a windclan apprentice , her eyes flashing with fear for a moment before shaking her head to clear the thought. "Um...how about I come see your sister. I would like to get an image of what your mother looks like . it would be nice .." She suggested , trying too keep the fear from her voice and succeeding rather well

(You reminded me that a certain other surge and and echo needs to meet soon)

Brindlepaw halted, flicking her ears. By the sounds and scents, she knew that there was a lot of cats, and that made her sort of nervous, as the RiverClan apprentice had never been at a gathering, and too many cats all at once scared her, or at least made her a little shaky. She weondered if this was all of the Clans, and surely there wasn't more. The pretty tortoiseshell calico sat down, careful to put distance between herself and anyone else, unless somebody approached her, in which case she wouldn't mind all that much just so long as they were friendly. Her fur was fluffed up against the cold, but she was still shivering. She just wasn't used to the colder weather. Brindlepaw had to breath through her mouth, as the strong, confusing and mingling scents were very overwhelming due to her above average sense of smell, and the noise was nearly as bad, so she just tried to block it all out, while still listening for the leaders.

Flowerleaf approached to her apprentice because she don't know if the apprentice was nervous, she wanted to reassure Brindlepaw in some way in that case , she curled her tail into hers paws when she sat in the left side of the apprentice, ''It's weird we be there with so many cats isn't?'' she meowed, remembering when she was a apprentice in her first gathering, she remembered that she sleeped in the gathering because she was bored, a memory that make her ashamed ''Why i remembered this now?'' she thought.

Brindlepaw turned her head in the direction of the voice, relaxing as she heard that it was her mentor, Flowerleaf. She nodded in agreement, her solid dusk sky colored eyes full of rather obvious relief. “Yes. I've never been around so many cats at once.” she whispered, flicking her tail, indicating a patch of ground next to her where Flowerleaf could sit, and she scrunched up her nose against a strange, salty smell that she knew was called the sea, she'd just never smelled it for herself, and it was quite unusual.

Otterkit saw Owlpaw and walked over to her. The ThunderClan kit sat down with her tail wrapped around her paws. "Hello, Owlpaw.", the white kit mewed. Otterkit's siblings padded over. "Hi, Owlpaw!", Lionkit, Snailkit, and Volekit mewed. "Hi Otterkit, Hi Owlpaw, Hello Lionkit, Hi Snailkit, Hi Volekit. What are you guys doing?", Splashkit and Rowankit walked over and asked. "We're just talking.", Lionkit said. "Hi, Nightpaw!", Rowankit meowed. "Oh, umm, hi.", he growled, slightly, walking over to the kits and apprentice. "We're just saying hi, if you wanna chat with us.", Volekit mewed. "I'm good..", Nightpaw said. Just then Swiftfur and Oakclaw padded over. "Hey guys.", Oakclaw said.

Sapphirepaw smiled. "Yeah, she's over here." he meowed and padded to where his siblings and 'father' were, and he stepped up to Crystalpaw. "Hey, Crystal, I want ya to meet someone." he meowed. Crystalpaw turned around to see her brother and smiled at the near full white she-cat who had a near full black she-cat with her. They seemed to be inversed versions of each other, though the black one was rather small. "This is Frostpaw, and this is Moonpaw." he said, pointing to the two with his tail.

"Nice to meet you." Crystalpaw mewed. She was a rather shy she-cat like her mother, but her brother tried everything to get her to be more open.

"Hello." Moonpaw mewed back with a kind smile.

''Why not you don't try to make others friends here?'' meowed the oriental she-cat with her youngish voice, even for a 37 moons old she-cat, Flowerleaf turned her head to the leaders, observing with calmness, her greenish eyes was gleaming, the medium sized she-cat moved her tail, leaving the tail straight in the ground.

I think im being too quick, im going to end up either embarrassing myself OR I could make them think im trying to get their information out of them... She shook her head lightly, hardly moving and looked up, ''Sorry if im acting a bit weird, this is my first gathering.''

"Because we were forced to! They weren't safe...you see, we love each other bla bla bla...and there's this other Tom, CrispLeaf...he felt he was rightfully her mate...don't ask...he started getting really violent with us and threatened to hurt me if I didn't stay away from her...at this point, VelvetNight was already heavily pregnant with my kits. We knew if CrispLeaf saw, he'd kill them...so we took them to the clans where we knew they'd be safe...but ever since we've wanted to rebuild things with them...make sure they're okay, apologise...now she's given birth to CrispLeaf kits...we regret everything...we just want our kits back!
They deserve to know the truth...we want them to come back..."
"Please! Whoever you are, we don't want to hurt anyone...we just want to know where they are!" They wailed together, sounding so pathetic.

Stormtails gazed hardened more and she growled, "Windclan nursery, but if you dare steal them you will feel the might of Windclan in your back, and with that, the enraged molly strode away, desperately trying to initiate another conversation.

MaskedBandits,

Goldenpaw wandered around, desperately searching for her freind, Lightpaw. The young she-cat had grown up in the EE, where there had been no gatherings an no freindly interactions between the clans. Her eyes darted from cat to cat, though no fluffy white pelts stood out. Lightpaw! Where are you? I don't want to be alone! The thunderclan she-cat was running now, frantically running around, fearful of the groups of warrior from different clans judging her, I don't want to be alone!

[doghouse]

''Why not you don't try to make others friends here?'' meowed the oriental she-cat with her youngish voice, even for a 37 moons old she-cat, Flowerleaf turned her head to the leaders, observing with calmness, her greenish eyes was gleaming, the medium sized she-cat moved her tail, leaving the tail straight in the ground.
Brindlepaw shook her head slightly. “No.... They're probably all busy.” she replied, but as she spoke, she was tasting the air for Guardianpaw's scent, but she didn't smell him, and minor disappointment entered her blind gaze. She lifted her head, her ears swiveling around. This was her first gathering, as it was probably the first for many, but already, everyone seemed to be in conversation.

[NightWarrior4Life]

The dark grey she-cat turned her head to see her bright ginger mate. "You know what we have to do..."
"Of course, dear..."
"We've gotta join the clans!"
"How do we do that though..."
"Just any clan...WindClan is our main target but if not, any clan...we need to see them whether it's on a patrol or at a gathering...we need to get close to them again..."
"Yes, love." VelvetNight trotted away HarmonyBlade following.

Lightpaw was fizzing with excitement as she saw all the other cats, and she almost fell over due to all the scents and sounds. This is the best day ever!! Cats of all shapes and sizes milled about, talking and laughing and sharing stories; the apprentice almost couldn't handle everything. "Isnt this so cool?" She turned around to talk to Goldenpaw, suddenly realizing she wasn't there. "Goldenpaw? Hey Goldenpaw, where are you?"

Lightpaw narrowed her eyes, trying to look in all directions at once. Where in StarClan could she have gone? We've only been here for a few heartbeats! She ran through the throng, pushing aside cats in her path. She looked for the familiar pelt of her friend, looking everywhere she could, until the flash of honey coloured fur among the browns and blacks. "Goldenpaw!" She called, trying to get her friend's attention as she followed pursuit.

Goldenpaw head perked up as she heard an echo of her freinds voice. She broke into a smile, she's here! "Lightpaw, Lightpaw, I'm here," she yowled as she rushed past disgruntled elders and surprised apprentices, her golden fur turning to a blur as she ran, she finally spotted the pure-White fur of her freind, "Lightpaw! Your here! I thought you had been left behind!" Goldenpaw mewed, breathing a sigh of relief, the honey coloured apprentice hated crowds, and would only put up with going to the gathering for her best freind.

Sapphirepaw smiled and flicked his tail in her face playfully. "Wait, you say it's not cool when I do it, but you can do it to someone else, huh?" Crystalpaw meowed playfully.

"Yep, cause I.... am older!" he growled and pawed her nose. Crystalpaw crouched and lunged at her brother, and they smacked into a warrior. The full black tom looked at them with a slight smile.

"Careful there." he meowed, his voice deep and brisk. "S-Sorry..." Crystalpaw mrrewed. The black tom chuckled.

"It's quite alright. I have had worse run-ins." he said. "The name's Surgefrost."

"I'm Sapphirepaw, and this is my sister Crystalpaw." Sapphire meowed.

(Yah, and so is riverclan , right? Cause echo is riverclan )

Frostpaw giggled. "Don't forget me and Moonpaw!" She laughed to the other two apprentices , swatting a gentle and fluffy paw at her friends before smiling up at the warrior. "Hello " she greeted.

The bluish silver Echostorm watched the other cats from afar, not wanting to really mix with the groups . her eyes landed on a warrior tom and a few apprentices . When she saw that one ran into the warrior she let out a soft giggle.

[Starfall]

Then swallowing down the lump in her throat she smiles and her tail lashed back and fourth in amusement. "Nice to meet you elm.. Paw" she finished with a huge enphisis on paw. Strangely the she cat believed the Tom to be warrior aged or just newly made warrior. Eh looked mature. With no kitten fluff let on his ears or flanks just slick warrior fur. He was a big apprentice too,"shiverlight" she meows. Sitting down next to the apprenitce and curling her tail around her paws watching him for a second to see if he did the same.

( sorry for the shortness, just being lazy! )
{it's okay~ mines late XD}
Elmpaw cocked his head to the side upon the other Warriors emphasis on his suffix, but after a while he guessed she thought he was a warrior, he was slightly larger than an apprentice, actually quite a bit larger. The brown tom dipped his head in respect to his new companion, not wanting to seem rude "Nice to meet you Shiverlight." he said sweetly, his words dropped with honey, and his blue hues shone with joy and respect, he liked this, meeting new people, seeing the way they interact with him, made him feel better. He turned his attention to the leaders for a few seconds before looking back at the she cat, he was unsure of what to say, unsure of what to do at the moment, but then an Idea popped up "Do you have an apprentice?" he asked, though he knew it wasn't much, and it seemed odd, it was something, anything to help keep the conversation rolling,

[monfang]

(Yah, and so is riverclan , right? Cause echo is riverclan )

Frostpaw giggled. "Don't forget me and Moonpaw!" She laughed to the other two apprentices , swatting a gentle and fluffy paw at her friends before smiling up at the warrior. "Hello " she greeted.

The bluish silver Echostorm watched the other cats from afar, not wanting to really mix with the groups . her eyes landed on a warrior tom and a few apprentices . When she saw that one ran into the warrior she let out a soft giggle.
(wait, Surge is SkC! you had Echo under SkC in the finder you big goof!)
Sapphirepaw pounced on Frostpaw with a laugh. Surgestorm chuckled as he watched them play. It reminded him of his kit-hood.

[Frosty]

Sapphirepaw pounced on Frostpaw with a laugh. Surgestorm chuckled as he watched them play. It reminded him of his kit-hood.

(Shhhhhiiiiii....... Crap. Well, that ship is flopped before even starting )

Frostpaw growled playfully ,swatting at his ear and studying her body and pinning down the tom. " I got you!" She giggled , eyes sparkling

[MaskedBandits]

Goldenpaw head perked up as she heard an echo of her freinds voice. She broke into a smile, she's here! "Lightpaw, Lightpaw, I'm here," she yowled as she rushed past disgruntled elders and surprised apprentices, her golden fur turning to a blur as she ran, she finally spotted the pure-White fur of her freind, "Lightpaw! Your here! I thought you had been left behind!" Goldenpaw mewed, breathing a sigh of relief, the honey coloured apprentice hated crowds, and would only put up with going to the gathering for her best freind.

"Me? Miss this? No way! Not my first Gathering!" Lightpaw smiled at Goldenpaw, overjoyed she'd get to spend the time with her best friend. "But there's so many cats here, from all kinds of Clans!" She raised her nose as a foul scent reached it, and she scrunched up her face. "But those RiverClan cats sure do stink of fish!" She giggled, trying to get the taste out of her mouth.

Lightpaw caught the scent of heather and marshes and knew that WindClan and ShadowClan had arrived, but there was another, slightly different aroma in the atmosphere as well. Who're the new guys? "Hey, do you smell that?" She asked quietly, glancing around nervously. "There's new cats here. Not like new apprentices, but like, a whole new Clan or something." Could it be rogues, maybe? Or is my new Clan theory right? Or am I just going insane?

[monfang]

(Shhhhhiiiiii....... Crap. Well, that ship is flopped before even starting )

Frostpaw growled playfully ,swatting at his ear and studying her body and pinning down the tom. " I got you!" She giggled , eyes sparkling
(I mean..... well..... *totally not hinting something*)
Sapphirepaw laughed as Frostpaw pinned him down.

"Look! You were pinned by a girrrl!" Moonpaw teased. Moonpaw could be considered a bully, but she was just rather a high and mighty she-cat.

[Frosty]

Sapphirepaw laughed as Frostpaw pinned him down.

"Look! You were pinned by a girrrl!" Moonpaw teased. Moonpaw could be considered a bully, but she was just rather a high and mighty she-cat.

(What is it?)

Frostpaw giggled again, licked her friends noise and got off of him. She turned to moonpaw, still smiling . "you are never going to let us forget what happened? Are you?" She asked, tail flicking .

Echostorm still watched, smiling at the apprentices. 'I wish I was still a kit'

[Momotaro]

"Me? Miss this? No way! Not my first Gathering!" Lightpaw smiled at Goldenpaw, overjoyed she'd get to spend the time with her best friend. "But there's so many cats here, from all kinds of Clans!" She raised her nose as a foul scent reached it, and she scrunched up her face. "But those RiverClan cats sure do stink of fish!" She giggled, trying to get the taste out of her mouth.

Or is my new Clan theory right? Or am I just going insane?

The golden cat smiled from her freinds remark, Lightpaws explosive personality balanced Goldenpaws meek and worried one, "Yep, I don't understand how any cat would want to eat those slimy things!" She mewed happily, pointing her long tail at a bundle of Riverclan warriors.

Goldenpaw noticed Lightpaw become more nervous on smelling the new cats, she gazed at a group of them, "it's not just you, they smell different, like trees and mountain air...." The young Molly twitched her whiskers and took a step back, who are these cats, they smell familiar but I've never seen them before..... Wait. I have seen them. "Aren't they those Skyclan cats, the ones that got rid of Singenight!" The honey coloured she-cat stared at them with wide eyes... They helped us, even though they didn't have to...

[monfang]

(What is it?)

Frostpaw giggled again, licked her friends noise and got off of him. She turned to moonpaw, still smiling . "you are never going to let us forget what happened? Are you?" She asked, tail flicking .

Echostorm still watched, smiling at the apprentices. 'I wish I was still a kit'
"Well, NOPE!" she apprentice meowed and tackled her sister.

Surgefrost turned and saw Echostorm, and smiled slightly before looking back at the apprentices.

[Frosty]

"Well, NOPE!" she apprentice meowed and tackled her sister.

Surgefrost turned and saw Echostorm, and smiled slightly before looking back at the apprentices.

Frostpaw squealed in surprise. "Ahhhh!" .

Echostorms eyes widened and she looked down, stealing glances when she could . 'he noticed me staring. I hope he doesn't think I'm weird ' she thought, her face heating up rappidly

[Phoenix Flames]

''Hey! Nice to meet you all.'' she mewed. ''So, has anything gone on in you clans?'' Not waiting for an answer, she asked, ''Is everyone ok?''
I think im being too quick, im going to end up either embarrassing myself OR I could make them think im trying to get their information out of them... She shook her head lightly, hardly moving and looked up, ''Sorry if im acting a bit weird, this is my first gathering.''
"It's fine. Nothing has really being going on in the Clans, other than me being 7 1/2 moons old and I'm still not apprenticed.....", Otterkit said. "Really? Ashstar must've forgot.", Nightpaw mewed. "Yeah... Probably.....", the white furred kit sighed. "I feel like we've been at Four Trees forever already..... I mean, I know we got here not too long ago but..... It just seems like we've been here forever.", Rowankit meowed. "...........", no one responded to Rowankit. "Wow....", Splashkit mewed. "Rowankit, that's the most weirdest thing to say...", Swiftfur growled. "I know it is, it just feels like we've been here forever.", Rowankit mewed.

[MaskedBandits]

"Aren't they those Skyclan cats, the ones that got rid of Singenight!" The honey coloured she-cat stared at them with wide eyes... They helped us, even though they didn't have to...

Lightpaw relaxed as Goldenpaw figured out who the newbies were, and her ears perked up at her next comment. "They did? Whoa! They're real heros!" She kind of wanted to talk to one of them and see where they'd come from, but another part of her held back. She didn't know anything about them, from their birthplace to their customs, and she found herself a bit nervous. Anything could happen. They could be hostile, or not follow Clan ways...

Lightpaw pushed the thought away, doing her best to ignore it's negative words. They wouldn't be here if they weren't like us, and besides, they probably know the Gatherings are a time of peace... right? She found herself glancing at a SkyClan cat from the corner of her eye, watching them mingle about with the other Clans. "Where do you think they come from?" She whispered, keeping her voice low. "A mountainous region far away, maybe? Or a secret waterfall somewhere?"

[monfang]

Frostpaw squealed in surprise. "Ahhhh!" .

Echostorms eyes widened and she looked down, stealing glances when she could . 'he noticed me staring. I hope he doesn't think I'm weird ' she thought, her face heating up rappidly
Moonpaw nuzzled her stomach, laughing. Sapphirepaw and Crystalpaw jumped in and laughed along with them.

Surgefrost stood to his paws and walked over to Echostorm. "Well, cold weather for a meet, son't you think?" he asked, she southern accent strong.

[Serendipity]

Lightpaw relaxed as Goldenpaw figured out who the newbies were, and her ears perked up at her next comment. "They did? Whoa! They're real heros!"

"Yep! They got rid of all the Darkforest leaders! I heard it from Robinpaw!" The honey coloured she-cat mewed cheerfully, the she-cat, despite being shy and secretive, loved gossip. She flicked her tail and whispered, "I heard that the leader, Grousestar was asked to be another cats mate! And that cat was his best freind! He rejected it though.." Goldenpaw smiled. "I heard that they lived just beyond the Thunderpath! Imagine that! A whole other clan right beneath our noses!"

[Frosty]

Moonpaw nuzzled her stomach, laughing. Sapphirepaw and Crystalpaw jumped in and laughed along with them.

Surgefrost stood to his paws and walked over to Echostorm. "Well, cold weather for a meet, son't you think?" he asked, she southern accent strong.

Frostpaw purred, jumping away from the group and circling them . "goofballs " she teased .

Echostorm looked up at the tom , nodding slightly. "Agreed. But we need at gathering like never before right now. " she answered, her voice hardly above a loud whisper. That was one of the side affects of being mute since she was a kit, regaining her voice only a few moons ago. "Hey...I've never seen you at a gathering before. Are you from that one clan...skyclan isn't it? Or have I been blind?'' She asked, cracking a smile

[lone]

Owlwing stared around, tail quivering as she watched cats chat, and laugh.
She didn't want to join in, much rather fine thinking, alone, away from everyone. It seemed peaceful, for now. Then, she heard a noise of approach, ears perked up alertly. Who was....The molly thought as she turned toward the tom, wary eyes flashing in suspicion, fur bristling in clear alarm. But, it seemed the tom was as scared as she was of him, so she relaxed. Strange, I'm usually the...one scared...She thought, looking relaxed, but wary. "Err...hello.." Owlwing spoke, tail quivering nervously, like like when she came to this..gathering. The wary warrior wasn't sure about this tom, but knew that he didn't come up to her to harm her, like her father did. Her father.... That wretched tom, she didn't even want to think about him, anymore. Owlwing wanted to let go of it, to forget the memories, all of it, but it always haunted her anyways. The molly felt frustrated, as she always did about this memories.



Graystep licked his maw as he always did when nervous. His yellow hues flashed for a moment and he flinched away from her a little, as though he was afraid of her voice. "I-I-I'm G-Gra-y- Grayst-t-tep. Graystep." The dark furred tom mewed. He wished he could get rid of the nervous stammer that seemed to haunt his words. But of course, as usual, whenever he met a new cat...Graystep's words all seemed to just fall into one another, making him sound quite strange. He was sick of it. Very, very sick of it. Still, there was nothing that he could do about it. Perhaps if he could get to know Owlwing a little better...maybe if she were friendly...and nice...as she seemed to be, then he would be able to get rid of his nervousness and be more friendly towards her. And yet at the moment, he was stuck in this little trap that he always seemed to have.
It was a curse...and yet sometimes, sometimes Graystep was thankful for it. How else would he be able to avoid conversation? This was a sort of excuse for him to avoid getting trapped into long conversations with unpleasant cats. But he had made the decision to come and introduce himself to Owlwing... so maybe I'm getting over my fear. That would be great! Then I can talk normally, and- and I won't have to be so nervous anymore! Graystep thought, averting his yellow hues from Owlwing. He didn't want to make eye contact for too long. That would be...simply too hard for him to do. After a moment he allowed his yellow hues to flit back over to Owlwing and he licked his maw again, shifting his weight as though it was uncomfortable for him to sit still.

"You're a goofball too!" Moonpaw meowed and ran after her sister.

"The name's Surgefrost." he nodded in greeting.

[Reverie]

Leapingfawn settled again, her maw being set from nervousness.

Abstractpattern was with her Clan, hither to the conversations.

[Star]

Ya)
(Ok)
Silversun licked her paw and watched the other cats. She saw a familiar cat and hurried over to the tom. "Hello Blackblaze." Silversun said depressingly. Lately she was thinking about her family and the RiverClan. It often made her depressed.

[Reverie]

Snowybranch, a ShadowClan cat, settled once more..

(bringing in a lot of chars oops)

[lyra]

"ShadowClan is doing well." He paused, listening to her comment. "I'm glad too, though I wish that Blazingnight hadn't had to die."

"Yeah, but if she had continued to live she would have brought more destruction," Rainberry said in hushed tone, as she didn't want any cats to think bad of her for saying that. Yes it sounded rude, but it was only the truth.

[MaskedBandits]

Soaring paw walked over to the Lightpaw. He lifted his gaze towards her, questioningly studdiying the she cat.



"Yep! They got rid of all the Darkforest leaders! I heard it from Robinpaw!" The honey coloured she-cat mewed cheerfully, the she-cat, despite being shy and secretive, loved gossip. She flicked her tail and whispered, "I heard that the leader, Grousestar was asked to be another cats mate! And that cat was his best freind! He rejected it though.." Goldenpaw smiled. "I heard that they lived just beyond the Thunderpath! Imagine that! A whole other clan right beneath our noses!"

"Whoa! That's really cool!" Lightpaw had to take a momentary break to let all the new info sink in. Who knew there was another Clan we just never knew about? Her eyes were opened pretty wide, so she tried to narrow them a bit when she saw a new cat approaching. She glanced his way, then looked at Goldenpaw questionably. Who's that?

"Oh... Hi!" Lightpaw meowed to the newcomer excitedly, meeting his eyes with a smile. "What Clan are you from?" She could scent it, but she wanted to know for sure. He seemed to be pretty nice, but she broke their stare to glance at Goldenpaw. Is she ok with this?

[Reverie]

Snowy shifted, "ShadowClan's doing perfectly fine." She muttered

[Momotaro]

"Yep, I know it is!" The golden she-cat mewed happily, swishing her tail on the floor, making pebbles roll. She watched her freind stare at the new cat, shrugging as Lightpaw looked at her. Goldenpaw stepped back slightly, she hadn't expected some cat to come over.

"Umm.... Hi....." The she-cat mumbled as she watched the newcomer, eyes narrowed. Unlike Lightpaw, Holdenpaw didn't like meeting new cats and experiencing new situations. "Who are you." She mewed, sharpness edging it. She looked back at her freind, she looked like she wanted to meet the new cat, but wasn't sure if Goldenpaw would like it, wanting to please her freind; she nodded.

[Casual Scribbles]

"Yeah, but if she had continued to live she would have brought more destruction," Rainberry said in hushed tone, as she didn't want any cats to think bad of her for saying that. Yes it sounded rude, but it was only the truth.

"True, but she had just had kits. I feel bad for them, they now have to grow up without a mother." He paused, shaking his head. "At least they will live in a Clan that believes in StarClan and can teach them the right ways." He sighed. "I wish I had kits of my own. W- I could teach them of our warrior ancestors, help them learn the ways of life." Frostedflight meowed wishfully, just barely managing to catch himself before saying 'we'.

[The Skeleton Prince]

( Surota Onishi ) A young riverclan apprentice watches the other clan cats purring softly to herself. Cats were everywhere and it was so lively. It made phantompaw feel like a kit again. She looks around hoping to spot her friend Watertalon.

Lakepaw sits in a spot furthest away from cats grooming himself. He hoped no one would speak to him but of course that was probably wishful thinking. He just hoped Specklepaw would stay out of things if some cat did speak to him. He blinks his canary yellow orbs has the young apprentices audits swivel listening to the chattering of the clan cats. The young windclan tom was regretting his decision to come to the gathering. He just wanted to know what was going on with other clans

(Ok)
Silversun licked her paw and watched the other cats. She saw a familiar cat and hurried over to the tom. "Hello Blackblaze." Silversun said depressingly. Lately she was thinking about her family and the RiverClan. It often made her depressed.
"Oh, hi there Silver. How are you?" Blackblaze looked at her, realizing she was sad. "Are you okay?"

[The Skeleton Prince]

WaterTalon walks into the gathering looking for a small RiverClan Apprentice. He narrows his eyes and spots phantompaw and trots over to her location
Phantompaw turns her head at the sound of pawsteps and purrs loudly. She stands up and head butts his chest gently. "Hey Watertalon"

[Surota Onishi]

Phantompaw turns her head at the sound of pawsteps and purrs loudly. She stands up and head butts his chest gently. "Hey Watertalon"

The young she-cat purrs and shrugs "I've been ok. Just about the same as every other cat. Cold and hungry"
WaterTalon nods "Yeah, i can't wait for Leaf-Bare to be over"

[MaskedBandits]

"Yep, I know it is!" The golden she-cat mewed happily, swishing her tail on the floor, making pebbles roll. She watched her freind stare at the new cat, shrugging as Lightpaw looked at her. Goldenpaw stepped back slightly, she hadn't expected some cat to come over.

"Umm.... Hi....." The she-cat mumbled as she watched the newcomer, eyes narrowed. Unlike Lightpaw, Holdenpaw didn't like meeting new cats and experiencing new situations. "Who are you." She mewed, sharpness edging it. She looked back at her freind, she looked like she wanted to meet the new cat, but wasn't sure if Goldenpaw would like it, wanting to please her freind; she nodded.

Lightpaw gently shoved Goldenpaw, sending her a look that fell along the lines of, C'mon! He's cool! She knew her friend wasn't fond of crowds or strangers, but this guy seemed ok. She looked back up at Soaringpaw inquisitivly. "So, how old are you? I mean, it's my first Gathering but I'm not sure about you so I didn't want to say something weird because ya know, that makes everything much more awkward doesn't it?" The fluffy white cat suddenly stopped, realizing she was ranting. Mouse dung! Now he's gonna think you're insane!

Lightpaw wasn't crazy about him, as she wasn't crazy about any tom, but he seemed like he'd make a good friend - if she didn't scare him away, that is. She had a tendency to ramble on about the smallest of things, and often talked so fast you could hardly understand her. She looked sheepishly at Goldenpaw, aware she'd ranted again. Oh, Lightpaw, why do you have to be so... talkative at times?

[The Skeleton Prince]

WaterTalon nods "Yeah, i can't wait for Leaf-Bare to be over"
Phantompaw nods "Me too" she purrs and looks around

[Ag75 -- GONE]

Rabbitpaw stalked into the clearing, clearly annoyed. Why do I even have to be here? This is stupid. I'm only an apprentice- gatherings shouldn't be open to idiots like the other apprentices in my clan....I suppose a gathering can't be too bad. She perked up, smiling. She weaved her way through the crowd, sitting down in an empty patch of dirt. "You can't sit there," a voice snarled. "That's my mentor's seat." A white RiverClan 'paw spoke. Rabbitpaw nodded and quickly stood. She hurried off, looking for some cat to talk to. Who needs to sit? I can stand. She stopped, suddenly feeling very alone. Her shoulders sagged. This was her first gathering. This! She didn't want to be here if she was going to be lonely all night. Her ear twitched, as she glanced back at her other clanmates. (OPEN)

[Serendipity]

"Whoa! That's really cool!" Lightpaw had to take a momentary break to let all the new info sink in. Who knew there was another Clan we just never knew about? Her eyes were opened pretty wide, so she tried to narrow them a bit when she saw a new cat approaching. She glanced his way, then looked at Goldenpaw questionably. Who's that?

Soaringpaw smiled at Lightpaw. "I'm from Skyclan," He said, purring at the she-cat. "I know, I'm probably weird-looking, and weird-sounding, since I'm not from around here..." He laughed nervously, his British accent obvious. He had unusually strong legs, which he normally used for jumping, in the mountains. His overly fluffy tail and fur seemed un-needed in the warm climate. Although his fur was getting shorter and accostumanting to the warmer land, he was still very furry.

[The Skeleton Prince]

He turns his head to the small tom "Do you know him?"
Phantompaw shakes her head "No he isnt of our clan." she sniffs the air and sneezes "He smells like windclan but its hard to tell with all the other clan scents wafting around the air" she mewls

[Zero]

Swampstone padded in along with the rest of RiverClan, taking a moment to pause and watch as Russetstar joined the rest of the leaders at their perch above the rest of the average clan members. He hoped that Russetstar wasn't too nervous, and that he would get along with the other leaders. We definitely don't need to pick a fight anytime soon... The tom also took a moment to look at Grousestar, having not had time to actually really look at the leader of SkyClan. "Seems overly happy..." He mumbled under his breath, turning his gaze away to search for Applethorn among his clanmates. The warrior was fairly sure that she had been chosen to attend.


Surgestorm followed along with the other WindClan cats, moving over to where the the small group usually stood. He looked for Zerosight and his apprentice right off the bat having not spoken to him since the clans were liberated. However, he quickly realized that ThunderClan had not arrived.

[Surota Onishi]

Phantompaw shakes her head "No he isnt of our clan." she sniffs the air and sneezes "He smells like windclan but its hard to tell with all the other clan scents wafting around the air" she mewls
WaterTalon shuts his eyes and focuses on the tom. He smells the air "Yeah he's windclan alright".

[MaskedBandits]

Soaringpaw smiled at Lightpaw. "I'm from Skyclan," He said, purring at the she-cat. "I know, I'm probably weird-looking, and weird-sounding, since I'm not from around here..." He laughed nervously, his British accent obvious. He had unusually strong legs, which he normally used for jumping, in the mountains. His overly fluffy tail and fur seemed un-needed in the warm climate. Although his fur was getting shorter and accostumanting to the warmer land, he was still very furry.

Lightpaw found herself looking at Soaringpaw out of the corner of her eye. "No, you're not weird looking. And you don't sound weird to me." Yes, she could clearly see he wasn't from the forest, but he didn't sound too strange, nor looked that bad. Yeah, his fur is a bit longer than ours, but he still looks great. She noticed his powerful legs, silently questioning their existence. "So... why are your legs so strong?" She had many more questions, though didn't want to scare the new guy away. Cause he might be if I keep talking.

{it's okay~ mines late XD}
Elmpaw cocked his head to the side upon the other Warriors emphasis on his suffix, but after a while he guessed she thought he was a warrior, he was slightly larger than an apprentice, actually quite a bit larger. The brown tom dipped his head in respect to his new companion, not wanting to seem rude "Nice to meet you Shiverlight." he said sweetly, his words dropped with honey, and his blue hues shone with joy and respect, he liked this, meeting new people, seeing the way they interact with him, made him feel better. He turned his attention to the leaders for a few seconds before looking back at the she cat, he was unsure of what to say, unsure of what to do at the moment, but then an Idea popped up "Do you have an apprentice?" he asked, though he knew it wasn't much, and it seemed odd, it was something, anything to help keep the conversation rolling,



She lightly smiled then turned to face the leaders as he did. Gee this apprentice is like. Two times the size of myself. Even though I'm pretty small for a cat my age. she thought looking him over briskly before Turning to face the Apprentice and look at his exterior. If they weren't introduced she would have totally passed the Tom as a warrior. A new one perhaps but a warrior nonetheless. Then her thoughts were interrupted by the apprentice and she flicked her attention to to his face. "Well, I used too but not anymore" she meows curling her tail around her paws. "I wouldnt mind training one again" she stated again looking up to the leaders, seeing her own and the three others. And of course a new one.

[The Skeleton Prince]

WaterTalon shuts his eyes and focuses on the tom. He smells the air "Yeah he's windclan alright".
Phantompaw noses her friend "We should go talk to him he looks lonely and upset" she mewls

[Serendipity]

Lightpaw found herself looking at Soaringpaw out of the corner of her eye. "No, you're not weird looking. And you don't sound weird to me." Yes, she could clearly see he wasn't from the forest, but he didn't sound too strange, nor looked that bad. Yeah, his fur is a bit longer than ours, but he still looks great. She noticed his powerful legs, silently questioning their existence. "So... why are your legs so strong?" She had many more questions, though didn't want to scare the new guy away. Cause he might be if I keep talking.
His eyes twinkled in amusement. "My legs? Oh, that's a funny story..." He let himself drift into dreamland before snapping back. "So, In our old territory, we had to jump very high in the mountains. We had to jump high enough to bring soaring hawks down to the ground. We all need strong legs to jump in the air. And my fur? That's because in the mountains we have snow, even in greenleaf!" He smiled, remembering the sharp climate. "If we weren't out hunting, all the cats would huddle together in a corner to keep warm... It not only kept us warm, but it made us closer. We bonded together. We all knew that there was no use fighting. We only survived because of our loyalty and unison. You know, there was a story, about a cat, Caveclaw, that was rude to everyone. One day, a frosty day, he refused to huddle together because he was mad at a cat named Frostbite. He crouched in another corner, and nearly froze to death. He only survived because Frostbite came over to keep him warm. Since that day, he was one of the kindest cats in the clan... And you know how I know that story better than any cat?" He wiggled his eyebrows mysteriously "Caveclaw and Frostbite are my parents" muahuahua

"Oh, hi there Silver. How are you?" Blackblaze looked at her, realizing she was sad. "Are you okay?"
( I just realized I called Blackblaze a tom. Is Blackblaze a girl or boy?)

Silversun tried to put on a fake happy face. "I'm fine. What's been happening with your family lately?" Silversun licked her paw again.

[Ghostly Cristalline]

Heartshine walked into the gathering place and walked over to a spot where no one was sitting at. She wasn't very happy going near other cats, even at gatherings, especially other clan cats.

Soulpaw walked into the gathering and walked over to Darkpaw and Brightpaw. Bluestream sat with them. He jumped on top of Darkpaw with an excited meow. Brightpaw jumped on top of her brothers with a purr. "Brightpaw, Darkpaw, it's been a while. I'm trying to get back to Shadowclan with you guys." he purred. Gazeshadow looked over at his half siblings and walked over to them. Bluestream walked over to him with a purr. "There's my half son," purred Bluestream "I hope your taking care of my son."

Phantompaw noses her friend "We should go talk to him he looks lonely and upset" she mewls
WaterTalon nods slowly and gets up

[The Skeleton Prince]

WaterTalon nods slowly and gets up
Phantompaw pads towards the young apprentice "Hey little one" she purrs softly. Lakepaw looks up "H..hi" he mews. Foxdung he thinks Pls go away
"Im phantompaw and this is Watertalon" the apprentice says flicking Watertalons nose playfully as she says his name

WaterTalon's nose wrinkles at this and he gently swats her tail away laughing a little at the same time

Lakepaw looks at Watertalon as a shiver runs up his spine and his face turns from worried and shy to an angry almost cruel look "What do u want u Riverclan cats" Specklepaw snaps. Phantompaw shrinks away at the sudden change in attitude from this young cat. Specklepaw blinks his canary yellow eyes "Do u honestly think we r going to fraternize with the enemy" he growls. Phantompaw looks at Watertalon confused "We?" she whispers.

He wiggled his eyebrows mysteriously "Caveclaw and Frostbite are my parents" muahuahua

Lightpaw raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Whoa. That's pretty cool." It must be really cold there if all the cats had to huddle together every night! She kind of felt sorry for the SkyClan cats, having to deal with the cold snow all the time, but she didn't say so out loud. They'd gotten used to it, forming a lifestyle around it, and she thought that was pretty cool. Of course, she pressed closer to Goldenpaw, waiting for her friend to say something as well.

So he's from SkyClan... but what's his name? Oh StarClan, he doesn't know mine either! Does he even believe in StarClan? He has to! Otherwise he wouldn't be here! Lightpaw found she had way too many questions, though she said nothing more. She instead waited for her friend to speak, not wanting to leave her out.

(I have to go somewhere, so just reply to this post and wait! Wait a long time hehehe) Soaringpaw looked at the she-cat, and then to the sky again. "I'm Soaringpaw, by the way" He smiled thoughtfully. "I wonder what it's like living in Starclan, don't you?" He sat still for a moment, then started talking again. "Y'know whats funny? I used to be called Redkit, after my fur. But then my momma, Frostbite, noticed that I had these really strong hindlegs" He said, shaking his legs. "So when I was apprenticed, she asked Grousestar to change my name to Soaringpaw, since I had the ability to soar over other cats..." He shook his head, and continued. "I used to have a brother, Flightkit. He died. He got grabbed by a hawk and got carried away. After that, all of the cats swore to kill any hawks they saw." He smiled, a pained, hurt, smile. "It was a happy-sad time. I was sad that Flightkit died, but very happy that the clan cared so much about each other, so much that they swore to protect me, out of grief" He smiled brighter this time. "Anyway, whats you're name? What clan are you from? Do you believe in Starclan? Do all the clans believe in Starclan?" Unlike Lightpaw, the young tom started asking questions like crazy. He wasn't scared of scaring Lightpaw away.

[JaxenAmethyst]

Shadowstorm plopped down next to Mudpaw, who was hopping around considering it was his first official Gathering. She would've gotten the chance during the last Gathering, but it got cancelled due to utterly harsh weather. "Hey Mudpaw." She leaned in. "You'll be an apprentice very soon. No need to worry, Halestar hasn't forgotten about you." She assured the leopard-pelted she-cat apprentice.

"I realize that, but it seems like it's taking so long." She admitted, slouching.

A shiver runs up the cats spine again and Lakepaw looks up at the two older cats apologetically "Im srry. That was Specklepaw" he meows softly "Its hard to explain but its like two cats living in one body. Phantompaw nods as if understanding. The young tom looks down and she turns to watertalon twirling her tail around the side of her head indicating she assumed he was insane.

Tawnypaw spotted Lakepaw well, Specklepaw attacking another apprentice. Her eyes filled with horror as she bounded/limped over to the fighting pair. She then stepped in front of the molly Specklepaw was about to hurt. "Lakepaw," she said keeping her voice down. "Don't do this. You can fight Specklepaw. Specklepaw isn't you. You are your own cat," she said searching his eyes. Hurt and pain were in hers. She hoped that Lakepaw could see it, so he would snap out of it.

Specklepaw laughs and gets in Phantompaws face "Get away from me fleabag" he growls grinning. "Go back to ur mommy and daddy" he spits. Phantompaw stares at him her ears drooping "Oh im srry r they dead? They must have been so weak to die so early in life" he says and laughs again

Specklepaw hisses at Watertalon but the moment he sees Tawnypaw a look of intense agony fills his gaze as a shiver runs up his spine almost looking forced. Lakepaws canary yellow orbs blink and he looks at Tawnypaw "T..tawnypaw" he whispers then looks at the two elder cats "I... i should go!" he mewls and turns and bounds off out of the clearing away from the gathering. Phantompaw turns to Watertalon her eyes welling up "W...were my parents w..weak? Because they died?" She looks down. No of course they weren't she thinks. She could say this about her father because she had Known him to be brave and fierce and strong. Far from weak. But what of her mother? She never even knew her mother or at least nothing of her that she remembered.

Tawnypaw watched as Lakepaw ran. She began to run after him. However, she was to slow and she had to slow down. She sat down and frowned. "Lakepaw, please coem back!" she shouted after him.

[The Skeleton Prince]

WaterTalon shakes his head immediately "of course they weren't weak. and if you ever think that it's about the biggest insult you could do to them"
The silver apprentice smiles presses her nose to his flank softly and whispers the one question that had been bothering her "What about my mother... Do u think ill ever get to meet her in starclan? What if i dont know its her? I don't even remember, or for that matter know if i ever did, what she looks like"

Tawnypaw watched as Lakepaw ran. She began to run after him. However, she was to slow and she had to slow down. She sat down and frowned. "Lakepaw, please coem back!" she shouted after him.
Lakepaw continued to run until he came to a small abandoned fox den. He could tell it was abandoned because the stale scent of fox was over a moon old. The small apprentice crawled inside and curled up trembling. It was freezing outside and he could get sick or die of the cold but he didn't care. He just wanted to protect every other cat from Specklepaw. Especially Tawnypaw. She didn't deserve the way Speckle would treat her. He didn't deserve to have her friendship. (We can continue this in the loner territory. Ill make a thread called The Darkened Half or something unless u can come up with something better xDDD)

Hexict: Talonstrike sat down and stared towards the leaders that had arrived. His usual anti-socialness preventing him from speaking to the other clans. He was fine with his own clanmates even thought he still rarely spoke to them, but he really disliked anyone that wasn't Shadowclan despite the fact that he hadn't been born into the clan himself. His tail lashed and he felt so uncomfortable and out of place in here. Talonstrike knew that he should try to become friends with his clanmates but it was so difficult to figure out what to say to them. He was in solitaire and that's where he felt safe... but he should probably get to know some of his clanmates since he was ambitious and staying in the shadows would get him nowhere he wanted to be.

Dawnflicker padded into the gathering. She spotted another cat (Shadowstorm) and wen to go sit by him or her (idk which). "Hello," she purred to the other cat. (Sry really short)

[seasalt]

Graystep licked his maw as he always did when nervous. His yellow hues flashed for a moment and he flinched away from her a little, as though he was afraid of her voice. "I-I-I'm G-Gra-y- Grayst-t-tep. Graystep." The dark furred tom mewed. He wished he could get rid of the nervous stammer that seemed to haunt his words. But of course, as usual, whenever he met a new cat...Graystep's words all seemed to just fall into one another, making him sound quite strange. He was sick of it. Very, very sick of it. Still, there was nothing that he could do about it. Perhaps if he could get to know Owlwing a little better...maybe if she were friendly...and nice...as she seemed to be, then he would be able to get rid of his nervousness and be more friendly towards her. And yet at the moment, he was stuck in this little trap that he always seemed to have.
It was a curse...and yet sometimes, sometimes Graystep was thankful for it. How else would he be able to avoid conversation? This was a sort of excuse for him to avoid getting trapped into long conversations with unpleasant cats. But he had made the decision to come and introduce himself to Owlwing... so maybe I'm getting over my fear. That would be great! Then I can talk normally, and- and I won't have to be so nervous anymore! Graystep thought, averting his yellow hues from Owlwing. He didn't want to make eye contact for too long. That would be...simply too hard for him to do. After a moment he allowed his yellow hues to flit back over to Owlwing and he licked his maw again, shifting his weight as though it was uncomfortable for him to sit still.
Owlwing blinked cautiously, claws digging into the ground as she watched Graystep. She thought he seemed, quite interesting, and different from other cats she met, or the little she have talked to in the past. "Owlwing.." The molly introduced herself to Graystep, a smile was on her face, though her optics sparkled with caution and wariness. She didn't want to be attacked without being prepared, even though it was a gathering. But, cats have been attacked at gatherings in the past, so it wasn't impossible. This was getting a bit awkward. She thought, paws shifting uncomfortably. as she looked from left to right. This is very awkward, indeed. Too awkward to be honest... Owlwing thought with a sigh, tail swishing at the sand, glancing at Graystep ever so often. So awkward. It wasn't her or his fault though, it was just personality issues, and faults.

"Hi!" Mudpaw attempted sitting down, but couldn't. Excitement overthrew her ability to stop moving and sit. "I'm Mudpaw! This is my first official Gathering!" She announced happily. The leopard-pelted she-cat flicked her tail towards Shadowstorm. "That there is my mentor, Shadowstorm! She's really calm once you get to know her, but like everycat, she has her flaws." She smiled towards Hawktalon, her tail swaying. She saw a dark brown-bodied she-cat with a white head and tail approaching. "Hi, Eagletalon!" She looked at Hawktalon. "This is Eagletalon! What's your name?" She asked.

"That's a nice name. What's the origin?" She asked. "It's nice to meet you too. Well.. You won't run away, will you?" She asked with a slight serious chuckle. Other clan cats had tended to flee at the sight of a harsh, merciless ShadowClan warrior. "I'm from ShadowClan." She told her. "Mudpaw, the leopard-furred she-cat, over there is my apprentice." She figured she'd mind as well say the origin of her name while she was still talking. "The origin of my name is quite simple. I'm a mix of both of my parents. I have my mother's looks and my father's personality. My mother's name was Shadowfang and my father's was Redstorm. So they decided to mix them both and came up with, well.. Shadowstorm! Meanwhile, one of my many brothers had my father's looks and mother's personality, so his is Redfang." She smiled.

Hawktalon smiled "I'm Hawktalon, congratulations on coming to your first gathering!" The male meowed , he bowed his head towards both Eagletalon and Mudpaw. His eyes shining, he looked back at Mudpaw "Do you know all the leaders and deputies names and what they look like?" He asked calmly ( witch clan were Eageltalon and Mudpaw in?)
(Eagletalon = ThunderClan | Mudpaw + Shadowstorm = ShadowClan)
"Thanks!" She smiled happily. (UGH SORRY IT'S SHORT :'( Hey, what clan is Hawktalon in?)

[JaxenAmethyst]

I gtg to bed to those who were roleplaying with me.. :'( Cries forever

The Bloody Kitty
"Hi!" Mudpaw attempted sitting down, but couldn't. Excitement overthrew her ability to stop moving and sit. "I'm Mudpaw! This is my first official Gathering!" She announced happily. The leopard-pelted she-cat flicked her tail towards Shadowstorm. "That there is my mentor, Shadowstorm! She's really calm once you get to know her, but like everycat, she has her flaws." She smiled towards Hawktalon, her tail swaying. She saw a dark brown-bodied she-cat with a white head and tail approaching. "Hi, Eagletalon!" She looked at Hawktalon. "This is Eagletalon! What's your name?" She asked.
Cedar
Shadowstorm flicked her tail towards Dawnflicker. "Hello. The name's Shadowstorm." She looked at Dawnflicker. "What about you?" She asked her with confidence. (Sorry it's so short. And Shadowstorm needs a mate x3)
(Eagletalon = ThunderClan | Mudpaw + Shadowstorm = ShadowClan)
"Thanks!" She smiled happily. (UGH SORRY IT'S SHORT :'( Hey, what clan is Hawktalon in?)
Shadowclan And goodnight! )

(Open to anyone :))

Suntail wandered around the edge of the group of Shadowclan cats a bit gloomily. She didn't know why she agreed to come to this moons gathering. The she-cat sat down, giving one of her golden brown shoulders a lick.

Northwing paced around the gathering excitedly, her deep blue eyes sparkling with excitement. It had been so long since she attended a gathering with her clan! She glanced around, wondering if Twistedbreeze was here. She didn't remember exactly which cats were chosen for the gathering by Russetstar. Northwing was always a bit scatter brained.

[Serendipity]

Lightpaw gently shoved Goldenpaw, sending her a look that fell along the lines of, C'mon! He's cool! She knew her friend wasn't fond of crowds or strangers, but this guy seemed ok. She looked back up at Soaringpaw inquisitivly. "So, how old are you? I mean, it's my first Gathering but I'm not sure about you so I didn't want to say something weird because ya know, that makes everything much more awkward doesn't it?" The fluffy white cat suddenly stopped, realizing she was ranting. Mouse dung! Now he's gonna think you're insane!

Lightpaw wasn't crazy about him, as she wasn't crazy about any tom, but he seemed like he'd make a good friend - if she didn't scare him away, that is. She had a tendency to ramble on about the smallest of things, and often talked so fast you could hardly understand her. She looked sheepishly at Goldenpaw, aware she'd ranted again. Oh, Lightpaw, why do you have to be so... talkative at times?
Soaringpaw smiled, glad to be the one answering questions. "I'm 7ish - 8ish moons, nothing too amazing" He chuckled "So, Lightpaw...." He dropped his voice to a whisper. "My family is looking to join another clan, leave Skyclan." He sighed, dropping his gaze to the floor. "Things in skyclan... They're.... tense..." He forced himself to look up again. "It's not going well... It's just very hard to live there..." He looked at her hopefully, and dropped his voice considerably low. "Please?"

[8RavenPhoenix8]

A gray and white tabby tom was calmly sitting in a semi-open area by where most of the Riverclan cats were. His tail wrapped around his white paws and his ears swiveled around, following his yellow-green gaze. He watched the various cats around him communicate with each other. Some were stiff and blunt, others cheery and outgoing, and yet somehow all these different cats got along so well. Well, most of them. There were a few menacing glares and shifty paws. Cats often sat with cats of other clans, while others sat with their own clans, and some, like he, sat alone. Why does he sit alone? He doesn't feel the need to go up to another cat. If they go to him, he won't complain, but he's perfectly happy where he is, observing the others.

Goldenpaw had been staying silent, Soaringpaw was interesting; but Goldenpaw preferred to not divulge much information. The honey coloured apprentice noticed something was wrong though, the way he talked and moved was odd, like he had been keeping a secret. The secret was soon divulged however, and Goldenpaw gasped, "You want to come to Thunderclan! Is that allowed?" She whispered in a worried tone, "Still, you did save us and your skills will be useful..."

[Undercover]

Cottonfrost padded into the clearing behind his deputy. The Leader of ThunderClan was a strong cat, and Cottonfrost was proud to be of his clan. Although he wasn't present, he respected the deputy very much, as did his sister, Trinityflame. The grey tom looked around for a moment, then padded away from the large group of cats and sat below a tall, winding Willow tree. His gaze, luminescent in the light, flickered with no particular emotion as he watched the four Clans milling around.
I wonder who'll be here tonight. Gatherings were perfect times to metet in peace once a month; whoever thought of them were smart. Her, you could see and make friends as well a sister know other's secrets that they unknowingly shared. Keeping a close watch on his leader for when they would speak, Cottonfrost wrappedbis tailaround his paws and groomed his paw to pass time. He would speak when he wanted to, until then, he would observe.

As Northwing continued her search for Twistedbreeze, she noticed one of her clanmates sitting alone. The young warrior tilted her head on one side. She didn't ever like to see cats all by themselves. She always hates when she's alone! The black she cat gave her pelt a quick shake, licked one of her white paws, and trotted over to the tom. "Hey there!" Northwing mewed cheerfully, fluffing up her fur against the cold night air. "What are you doing over here all by your lonesome?" She inquired.

The dilute calico padded up to the male sitting by himself. The riverclan she-cat noticed that he didnt care to be by another cat, but she was to stubborn not to meet this cat. She padded up to him and sat next to him. She wrapped her fluffy tail around her and looked to him. "Hello," she mewed to him. "What did I miss?" she asked tilting her head. She then saw the other she-cat come over. She dipped her head, "Hello," she mewed to her in greeting. (sry short)

[Zero]

Swampstone padded in along with the rest of RiverClan, taking a moment to pause and watch as Russetstar joined the rest of the leaders at their perch above the rest of the average clan members. He hoped that Russetstar wasn't too nervous, and that he would get along with the other leaders. We definitely don't need to pick a fight anytime soon... The tom also took a moment to look at Grousestar, having not had time to actually really look at the leader of SkyClan. "Seems overly happy..." He mumbled under his breath, turning his gaze away to search for Applethorn among his clanmates. The warrior was fairly sure that she had been chosen to attend.


Surgestorm followed along with the other WindClan cats, moving over to where the the small group usually stood. He looked for Zerosight and his apprentice right off the bat having not spoken to him since the clans were liberated. However, he quickly realized that ThunderClan had not arrived.

Applethorn had been rather dissatisfied with the recent events of her own clan- really, it was quite boring when everything had gone back to usual, and she was just getting used to the other clans all being... united under something that was more powerful than borders could ever be. She didn't find much use in grumbling about it, but she still didn't seem entirely happy with what had been going on. Sighing, the molly took a seat as cats began to gather together, eyes focused on the three leaders and two deputies standing in the center. "I guess the Thunderclan and Windclan leaders didn't have the guts to come to the first gathering since everything just went back to normal. They won't even get to meet everyone in this... strange new clan." She remarked to Swampstone, getting up from her own seat in order to walk towards the tom- one of her only friend. "I don't trust them- Skyclan- and if I'm going to be honest, I couldn't care for Halestorm, too, or Halestar. Whatever it is, Shadowclan's shady."

Swampstone turned as Applethorn spoke to him, having been looking in the wrong direction all along. "There you are," He meowed, touching his nose to her cheek in greeting as she padded gracefully up to him. The tom turned his gaze to look back at the leaders sitting above them, considering his best friend's words thoughtfully. "Me neither..." He finally spoke, agreeing to what she had said about SkyClan. "They seem just like ThunderClan; sticking their noses where they don't belong, except even worse." The tom turned his gaze back to the beautiful she-cat beside him, offering a tiny smile. "And as for ShadowClan, shadiness is in their name. It's nothing new," There was a tiny bit of teasing in his tone, though it was all in good nature. "She does seem... a bit weirder than most other ShadowClan cats, though. Do you see the looks she keeps sending your dad's way? It's like he's done something to upset her already."

[Hexict]

Hexict: Talonstrike sat down and stared towards the leaders that had arrived. His usual anti-socialness preventing him from speaking to the other clans. He was fine with his own clanmates even thought he still rarely spoke to them, but he really disliked anyone that wasn't Shadowclan despite the fact that he hadn't been born into the clan himself. His tail lashed and he felt so uncomfortable and out of place in here. Talonstrike knew that he should try to become friends with his clanmates but it was so difficult to figure out what to say to them. He was in solitaire and that's where he felt safe... but he should probably get to know some of his clanmates since he was ambitious and staying in the shadows would get him nowhere he wanted to be.

"Talonstrike!" A molly bounded up to the solitary tom and waved her tail as she stopped in front of him. Her multi colored striped tail curled up as she looked up at her former mentor. It had been moons since their times of training together had ended, but she usually tried to make time for her friend - especially since she was the few friends he bothered to have. The cream colored molly gave another hop as she watched him. "So how do you like the gather?" She asked him this everytime. She was aware of the fact that he didn't like talking to other clans and would prefer to stay only among the Shadowclanners - even though she was friendly, she tried her best not to form and conflicting bonds with the other clans, though she was polite to them.

She began to blush standing so close to her former mentor. The young warrior had to admit to herself that he didn't like her in the way that she liked him. If she were to tell him how she felt, she feared that he would then decide not to spend any more time with her. And that was the last thing that she wanted.

"Riverclan has a new leader," Tawnypetal informed him, though it was obvious and everyone already knew. "I feel bad for them after Bucknight's rule, right? They were left without a leader - it would suck if he turned out to be like their last lead," she didn't really notice that this could be a touchy subject for some cats as she spoke. Some loved ones had been killed during the time of the evil leaders. It wasn't a happy time for the clans.

Though she herself had hardly been affected. She and Talonstrike had managed to go under the radar during that time and therefore never caught the eye of Blazingnight. Neither had lost a loved one either - but that wasn't saying much for Talonstrike.

[Fallpotato]

Badgerclaw clawed at the ground looking a around at all the cats. He gritted his teeth and waited. He was normally as still as stone but at the moment, he was as energetic as a kit

[8RavenPhoenix8]

As Northwing continued her search for Twistedbreeze, she noticed one of her clanmates sitting alone. The young warrior tilted her head on one side. She didn't ever like to see cats all by themselves. She always hates when she's alone! The black she cat gave her pelt a quick shake, licked one of her white paws, and trotted over to the tom. "Hey there!" Northwing mewed cheerfully, fluffing up her fur against the cold night air. "What are you doing over here all by your lonesome?" She inquired.

Shadedpaw turned his head when he heard the paw steps of another cat draw near. He adjusted his paws and flicked is tail to the other side before straightening himself. He's seen this cat before, although they've never spoken. She seemed friendly and cheerful, and he didn't want to seem cold. Shadedpaw dipped her head to the she-cat, and thought about her question.
"I was just enjoying the scenery." He replied, referring to both the area they met in and the cats' interactions with each other. He turned his head again in the direction of yet another she-cat. What's with all the she-cats? The calico smelled of Riverclan as well, although for once he didn't recognize her. He replied to her first question.
"Hello! And nothing, I was just saying why I was sitting here alone." He shivered.

"It is nice, isn't it?" Northwing replied to the apprentice, gazing around the Seastones. "Though it's really chilly!" The she-cat shivered and sat down next to Shadedpaw. "Gatherings were always my favorite." She continued, turning her head to address the two clanmates beside her. "It's the only time the clans can meet in peace and share news." Northwing nudged the tom with one paw. "You should take advantage of this night!" She chuckled. "You should be making friends while you can!"

Shadedpaw looked around the area again. He had to agree, it was nice. It wasn't like any of the clans' territories, and the air was indeed cold. He flinched a bit when Northwing sat next to him, but settled down quickly. He looked around the area at the various cats as she spoke, and flicked his tail to the other side of him when she suggested making friends.
"This is a special night, but I don't want to disturb the others... They only get to see cats from other clans so often, and I don't want to take up their time. I'm... fine here, watching." He shifted his paws and glanced down before shaking his fur out and straightening up again.

[Undercover]

Trinityflame followed her clan into the gathering clearing; her amber eyes glowed in the darkening sky. With a quick look around, the calico knew that ThunderClan was the last to arrive. Rather self-conscious, she followed one of her Clanmates into the clearing. She only realized it was Gyrewind, the deputy standing in for her leader, when she almost bumped into his tail. Eyes wide, she drew back into the crowd, her gaze searching the mass of cats. Feeling rather overwhelmed, Trinityflame limped to the edge of all the cats; she sat down and wrapped her long tail around her paws. She found her gaze following the deputy of her clan up to the place where the leaders met. She had always admired him from afar, not in the way a lover looks as they gaze, starstruck, at the cat before them, but more like a kind of curiosity. She was proud to be part of such a deep, strong clan.
Trinityflame continued to watch the tom through amber eyes, trying to process how he could do it so well. Lost in thought, the calico sighed, idiot drawing a claw down the length of a branch that had fallen.

[MaskedBandits]

Soaringpaw smiled, glad to be the one answering questions. "I'm 7ish - 8ish moons, nothing too amazing" He chuckled "So, Lightpaw...." He dropped his voice to a whisper. "My family is looking to join another clan, leave Skyclan." He sighed, dropping his gaze to the floor. "Things in skyclan... They're.... tense..." He forced himself to look up again. "It's not going well... It's just very hard to live there..." He looked at her hopefully, and dropped his voice considerably low. "Please?"



Goldenpaw had been staying silent, Soaringpaw was interesting; but Goldenpaw preferred to not divulge much information. The honey coloured apprentice noticed something was wrong though, the way he talked and moved was odd, like he had been keeping a secret. The secret was soon divulged however, and Goldenpaw gasped, "You want to come to Thunderclan! Is that allowed?" She whispered in a worried tone, "Still, you did save us and your skills will be useful..."

Lightpaw was taken aback at Soaringpaw's request, and her jaw dropped to new lengths. "Hold on - are you saying that you want us to -" She looked around cautiously, then lowered her voice to a whisper. "You want us to get you into ThunderClan? But what about your family, or friends, or the warrior code!" But Goldenpaw was right as well. SkyClan had saved their lives from the evil she'd been raised in, but at the sane time... Would we get punished? Is that against the warrior code? And will Ashstar approve of it? Her thoughts and feelings spiraled in a chaotic mess, preventing her from speaking again.

Lightpaw was trapped. She didn't want to lose Soaringpaw, as he seemed to be a good friend, but at the same time, she knew she could never break the warrior code. Oh, what in StarClan do I do?! "So..." She paused, unsure about what she was going to say. "Why would you want to come to ThunderClan? I mean, over joining ShadowClan, RiverClan, or WindClan." And why would you want to come here at all?

@Slash-GNR
Leafstorm sulked through the mass of cats. There were so many it made him cringe to think he was surrounded by so many. Carefully he rounded the corner and found some shade. It would keep the dark Thunderclan cat out of the masses for a bit. Suddenly the tom caught sight of a rather familiar pelt. As his eyes scanned the crowd they had layer on the face of the cat for such a fleeting second, Leafstorm had thought her a ghost. Suddenly the black cat found himself smiling, and snickering. He'd thought he'd never see the damsel he had met so long ago again. Feeling the urge to converse Leafstorm padded over. "Greetings" he mewed.

Dewpatch sat in the back. She preferred to observe rather than do. She held her head high to honor Starclan and her own clan, Riverclan. She perked her ears at paw steps coming towards her. She then turned her head toward the voice. It sounded familiar. She turned her head to see the tom she met at the border. Her heart stopped and she swallowed. Her body began to tingle. She didn't know why. May be it was the fear she had that he would harm her after her bad attitude toward him on their first meeting. She dipped her head though, "Hello," she mewed. "We are at truce, so sorry, you can't get even with me from last time," she said with little emotion. However, she felt a lot of things with in her at that moment. She turned away, but then turned back, "I never did get your name. You were to busy running your mouth," she mewed.

Leafstorm chuckled at her attitude towards him. He sat down without invitation and flicked his tail, quiet for a tiny bit. "Leafstorm." He decided to tell her. He faced the leaders not paying much attention to their words. The true reason for a gathering tended to bore him, but when invited he came never shot down the opportunity since it provided a opening to watch the weaknesses of others. Just in case he was ever presented with the possibility of attacking. Especially the leaders and deputies. He found them the most entertaining. His eyes flitted between his new companion, and the front of the clearing. He tried to remember the she-cats name. "Dew... Dewpatch." He remembered.

The female turned to the male who mentioned her name, "Aww, look! You remembered my name. You must have really liked me," she chuckled giving him a playful nudge. "So, how has your life in your clan been? Any issues?" she tilting her head at the tom. She let her greenish grey eyes scan him while she waiting for a response.

[lone]

Owlwing blinked cautiously, claws digging into the ground as she watched Graystep. She thought he seemed, quite interesting, and different from other cats she met, or the little she have talked to in the past. "Owlwing.." The molly introduced herself to Graystep, a smile was on her face, though her optics sparkled with caution and wariness. She didn't want to be attacked without being prepared, even though it was a gathering. But, cats have been attacked at gatherings in the past, so it wasn't impossible. This was getting a bit awkward. She thought, paws shifting uncomfortably. as she looked from left to right. This is very awkward, indeed. Too awkward to be honest... Owlwing thought with a sigh, tail swishing at the sand, glancing at Graystep ever so often. So awkward. It wasn't her or his fault though, it was just personality issues, and faults.




Graystep could feel his dark pelt growing much too warm for the weather. Was he really that embarrassed? What had he done wrong? Was she...scared of him? She looks scared. Why is she scared? What did I do wrong? Did I do something wrong? I can't figure out what's wrong...oh StarClan please help me not to mess this up. Graystep thought, his nervous yellow hues looking anywhere but directly at Owlwing. Truth be told, he was terrified of her. She was scary. Not in the 'I'm going to hurt you' way, but in more of a 'I'm ready to hurt you if I need to' way. The good news was she didn't seem like she had a quick temper, so unless Graystep flat out humiliated or insulted her- which he was quite sure he had never done- he should be fine. "W-Wel-l-l...its nuh-i-ce...nice to meet yu-yo-you, Owl-w-we-wing." Graystep found his stuttering growing fiercer by the second and sighed. This was not the best first impression he had ever made. How he wished he could just project clear thoughts to her and do something right for once.

[Talon]

Forgottenmemory padded into the gathering. She spotted Talonstrike right away and padded over to him. She sat down next to him and whispered, "Hey, what did I miss?" she asked looking around. She wrapped her silver tipped tail around her black paws. (sry short)

They were left without a leader - it would suck if he turned out to be like their last lead," she didn't really notice that this could be a touchy subject for some cats as she spoke. Some loved ones had been killed during the time of the evil leaders. It wasn't a happy time for the clans.

Though she herself had hardly been affected. She and Talonstrike had managed to go under the radar during that time and therefore never caught the eye of Blazingnight. Neither had lost a loved one either - but that wasn't saying much for Talonstrike.

Talostrike gave Forgottenmemory a confused look. Since Shadowclan had all arrived together, he assumed that she wouldn't have missed anything that Talonstrike knew from the current gather. "Well, nothing that I would know," he said. The spotted and striped warrior looked at the black spotted she-cat. He wasn't sure what to say to her. The two had a conversation before, but that didn't help with his awkwardness. Talonstrike opened his mouth to say something stupid or basic, but was interrupted by another cat.

As soon as he heard his name get called he knew who the cat was that bounded up to him. "Tawnypetal," he said her name quietly and then flattened his ears as she hopped. He like the she-cat since she was one of his few friends, but he could never get use to her boundless energy. Talonstrike dislikes overly hyper cats yet Tawnypetal had been his apprentice and he had accepted her for her kit-like personality, even if she wasn't his ideal company. "I know, I was here," Talonstrike said when Tawnypetal told him about Russetstar. He looked at the male leader when Tawnypetal said that she hoped he wasn't like Bucknight. "I doubt it," he muttered, unimpressed by Russetstar. "The gathering is fine..." it was clear he didn't like the gathering, but it wasn't like he hated it so he always attended.

Lightpaw was taken aback at Soaringpaw's request, and her jaw dropped to new lengths. "Hold on - are you saying that you want us to -" She looked around cautiously, then lowered her voice to a whisper. "You want us to get you into ThunderClan? But what about your family, or friends, or the warrior code!" But Goldenpaw was right as well. SkyClan had saved their lives from the evil she'd been raised in, but at the sane time... Would we get punished? Is that against the warrior code? And will Ashstar approve of it? Her thoughts and feelings spiraled in a chaotic mess, preventing her from speaking again.

Lightpaw was trapped. She didn't want to lose Soaringpaw, as he seemed to be a good friend, but at the same time, she knew she could never break the warrior code. Oh, what in StarClan do I do?! "So..." She paused, unsure about what she was going to say. "Why would you want to come to ThunderClan? I mean, over joining ShadowClan, RiverClan, or WindClan." And why would you want to come here at all?

The honey-coloured molly was glad that she wasn't alone in her concerns; she hated being the odd one out, she commented, "Are your family coming to!? Wait..." Goldenpaw stopped and though about it, Trouble at home.... Wanting to leave.... Not caring about your family....... She looked shocked, it must be that.... The golden she-cat whispered, "What did your family do to you, something must of happened." She gazed at Lightpaw, "Yes, and why Thunderclan, are you......."Her voice was barely a whisper, "Half-clan?!"

The golden she-cat whispered, "What did your family do to you, something must of happened." She gazed at Lightpaw, "Yes, and why Thunderclan, are you......."Her voice was barely a whisper, "Half-clan?!"

Lightpaw hardly held in her gasp as Goldenpaw suggested being half-clan, but her eyes opened wider than ever before. How could she say such a thing? No one likes to be accused of being half-clan! Though she knew it was a perfectly good possibility. It would explain why he chose ThunderClan, and why there was so much 'tension' for him and his family. Still, it's hard to grasp the fact that a SkyClan cat would be half ThunderClan... SkyClan hadn't even been with them for very long, so taking in the amount of new cross-clan relationships was difficult.

Lightpaw found herself looking at Soaringpaw with new eyes. Now, instead of a SkyClan cat from the far off mountains, she saw a ThunderClan cat from the forest. Instead of a high jumping cat, she saw someone with strong back legs. Nothing had been proved, of course, but now that the suggestion was out there, it had an effect on the she-cat's point of view. I know this shouldn't really change anything, but it just does... And the thought of him living under the same roof as her just seemed too... impossible. Oh, I hope to StarClan that isn't true!

Lightpaw drew her gaze away from Soaringpaw and onto Goldenpaw, looking into her eyes. She didn't know where the accusation had come from, or why she'd said it aloud, but she didn't dare question it yet. There were too many questions and not enough time, as she could tell the Gathering would be over soon. But before it does, this mess needs to be cleared up.

"So is that true? Are you really half ThunderClan, Soaringpaw?"

[Serendipity]

Lightpaw was taken aback at Soaringpaw's request, and her jaw dropped to new lengths. "Hold on - are you saying that you want us to -" She looked around cautiously, then lowered her voice to a whisper. "You want us to get you into ThunderClan?

And why would you want to come here at all?
Soaringpaw chuckled dryly. "You don't have to do anything. It's already arranged. The only thing we need is friendship. As far as Ashstar and the rest of the clan knows, we're rogues deciding to settle down"

[Serendipity]

Goldenpaw had been staying silent, Soaringpaw was interesting; but Goldenpaw preferred to not divulge much information. The honey coloured apprentice noticed something was wrong though, the way he talked and moved was odd, like he had been keeping a secret. The secret was soon divulged however, and Goldenpaw gasped, "You want to come to Thunderclan! Is that allowed?" She whispered in a worried tone, "Still, you did save us and your skills will be useful..."
He smiled at the she-cat. "It's allowed. But if anyone asks you, I'm a rogue. Not a skyclanner"

[Ag75 -- GONE]

(Open to anyone :))

Suntail wandered around the edge of the group of Shadowclan cats a bit gloomily. She didn't know why she agreed to come to this moons gathering. The she-cat sat down, giving one of her golden brown shoulders a lick.

Northwing paced around the gathering excitedly, her deep blue eyes sparkling with excitement. It had been so long since she attended a gathering with her clan! She glanced around, wondering if Twistedbreeze was here. She didn't remember exactly which cats were chosen for the gathering by Russetstar. Northwing was always a bit scatter brained.
Rabbitpaw scanned her clan mates, looking for someone to talk to. They all seemed occupied, and they most certainly didn't want to talk to her. She sighed, her tail drooping and falling between her legs. Her ears tilted slightly as she dragged her tan paws through the dirt. Her normally tan paws turned slowly brown, and her eyes seemed almost deprived of color. Originally, Rabbitpaw had been more than excited to come to the gathering. But now? She would do anything to be back at home in her nest, a rabbit resting in her stomach. She was a typical WindClan cat- fast, trusting and moody. She was nice...most of the time. But unlike most of her clanmates, she had a sharp and mean temper. She spotted Suntail to her right, and thought, finally! Someone who feels my pain. But then, she quickly realized that the cat was much older and probably didn't want to be bothered by an apprentice. She slowly padded towards the she-cat, and eventually reached a few tail-lengths away from her. Staring at her paws, Rabbitpaw managed to mew, "Oh, uh, hey.I-I'm Rabbitpaw," Before stepping away from the older cat.

Picking her way through crowd, eyes scanning the cats milling about around her for a specific young apprentice, Larkflight murmured a hello to each familiar face she passed. Finally spotting the RiverClan apprentice, her eyes lit up and she quickened her pace towards him. "Brackenpaw!" she called, dipping her head to her apprentice as she neared him. This was his first Gathering, so Larkflight was sure that he might be a bit overwhelmed. Of course, it was part of Clan life, and now that the evil era was over the RiverClan warrior sincerely hoped that they would return to them at the regular full moon times. It was good for new apprentices to experience the Gathering; a time of peace between all Clans, where they could relax and let the border lines get just a tad bit smudged.

Snapping her thoughts back to the present, she sat down off to Brackenpaw's side, studying his expression with a curious gaze. "How do you like the Gathering so far? It was always a lot of cats, but now with SkyClan in the mix there's even more!" she exclaimed, taking a moment to look around and pick out all the unfamiliar cats. She spotted Ashenpaw, a young SkyClan apprentice she had fought alongside during the liberation of the Clans, and a few others she'd seen in battle as well. A small smile rested on her face as she returned her gaze to Brackenpaw, patiently awaiting her apprentices' answer.

Brackenpaw padded past unfamiliar faces. He wasn't used to being in such a big crowd of cats. He had already thought that RiverClan was quite big, and with the edition of FOUR other clans, he felt quite overwhelmed. Suddenly, Brackenpaw stopped in his tracks as he heard a familiar voice. Looking around, he spotted his mentor, Larkflight, rushing towards him. Finally someone I know!, Brackenpaw thought. He had hardly seen anyone else from his clan. Ok, well he had seen quite a few RiverClan cats but none of them he was well acquainted with. Brackenpaw wasn't well liked, nor well known in the clan, being half-clan, not many cats liked him so he didn't have many friends. If he ever managed to make a friend he thought himself to be very fortunate.

"Well, there's certainly a lot of cats", Brackenpaw started, looking around at all the cats. They were quite quiet now, as Russetstar had started to speak. "I-I'm just not used to this. There are so many unfamiliar faces, you're about the first familiar face that i've seen", Brackenpaw said in a hushed tone. His first gathering certainly wasn't a dream, but it wasn't a nightmare either. It would probably take him a few more gatherings for him to get used to. The gathering was different from what he had expected, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing, he just wasn't used to being so close to the other clans, and not having a fight or something. Because it appeared to him that each time someone from a certain clan saw a cat from another clan, it resulted in a fight.

Larkflight felt her heart swell; in the short time she'd known Brackenpaw, she'd taken a liking to the young tom, and since her former apprentice Kestrelstep had died just days after being named a new warrior, she vowed to strive to be the best mentor the young tom had. Of course, she knew about his being half-Clan, and although Larkflight was considered one of the most loyal RiverClan warriors, she had her own secrets, and knew not to judge the young tom for something that was simply out of his control. As she reflected on her own secret - having a kit that was now being raised in ThunderClan, and the other two in the Syndicate - she wondered if Sorrelpaw felt this way, the way Brackenpaw did; on the outside, nervous... She blinked and forced the nostalgic look off her face, smiling down at her apprentice.

Seeing him look a bit uneasy, it reminded her of her first Gathering by the ocean, moons ago; it too had frightened her. All four Clans together, and no one was lifting a claw? No snarling threats or raised hackles? It was certainly something to take in. Comfortingly, the RiverClan she-cat touched Brackenpaw's shoulder with the top of her tail, nodding silently as he spoke. "It's definitely a lot to take in. You're doing well though. Remember, the biggest part of the Gathering is that it's a time of peace amongst the Clans. While we still have borders, it is the one time where we can come together and not worry about getting our ears ripped off," she purred, knowing that back when she was an apprentice she'd had a few tussles with the other apprentices herself. "Have you met any of the apprentices from other Clans? Sometimes it's good to go beyond RiverClan's borders - for the Gathering, that is."

He like the she-cat since she was one of his few friends, but he could never get use to her boundless energy. Talonstrike dislikes overly hyper cats yet Tawnypetal had been his apprentice and he had accepted her for her kit-like personality, even if she wasn't his ideal company. "I know, I was here," Talonstrike said when Tawnypetal told him about Russetstar. He looked at the male leader when Tawnypetal said that she hoped he wasn't like Bucknight. "I doubt it," he muttered, unimpressed by Russetstar. "The gathering is fine..." it was clear he didn't like the gathering, but it wasn't like he hated it so he always attended.

The molly didn't seem to notice his... bothered reaction by her boundless energy, though she never seemed to notice anyway. Of course, even if he was bothered by it, he never brought it up. Instead he seemed to just put up with her and allowed her to be his company sometimes. The warrior always tried to make time for her former mentor, not only was she one of his few friends but he was also her closest friend, not to mention she had a bit of a crush on him.

"Oh... right," Tawnypetal blushed in embarrassment when the tom informed her that he had been here. Of course he was! She silently scolded herself. She noticed his look of unimpressed when he laid his gaze onto Russetstar. Tawnypetal herself thought that he looked handsome, though not in the way that should would moon over him. No, if she were to moon over someone it would be Talonstrike... even if he never seemed to notice her in that way.

A frown formed on the cat's maw as he stated the gathering was fine, but even she could tell that he wasn't enjoying it. "We really should go around and meet some new people!" Tawnypetal suddenly suggested. "It's been about time that you start to socialize around other cats, and it's not we're at war with any of the clans anyway. Please," the cream color warrior blinked her blue orbs innocently at him as she tried to get him to socialize with the other cats at the gathering.

"We can get to know some people - I'm not saying be friends with them, but just talk to them. How do you think people feel about you when you don't bother with anyone? You've got to try!" She was aware that becoming Halestar's deputy was on his mind and knew that if he never bothered with the other clans or really even his own clanmates than he would never become deputy of Shadowclan. And she wanted him to get the role if it was what he really wanted. "What's the worse that could happen?"

[Momotaro]

Soaringpaw chuckled dryly. "You don't have to do anything. It's already arranged. The only thing we need is friendship. As far as Ashstar and the rest of the clan knows, we're rogues deciding to settle down"
He smiled at the she-cat. "It's allowed. But if anyone asks you, I'm a rogue. Not a skyclanner"

Goldenpaw thought for a moment, I do wonder why he would want to leave his clan..... But if Lightpaw accepts him so do I. Speaking of her, why is she so gooey-eyed over that Tom? I mean, just because he might join Thunderclan doesn't make it ok! What if he doesn't join, what if Lightpaw still loves him! Would she break the code! The Molly was panicking now, "What if your clan-mates recognise you at a gathering! What excuses will you say to just disappear from Skyclan?"

[Star]

( I just realized I called Blackblaze a tom. Is Blackblaze a girl or boy?)

Silversun tried to put on a fake happy face. "I'm fine. What's been happening with your family lately?" Silversun licked her paw again.

Soaringpaw chuckled dryly. "You don't have to do anything. It's already arranged. The only thing we need is friendship. As far as Ashstar and the rest of the clan knows, we're rogues deciding to settle down"

He smiled at the she-cat. "It's allowed. But if anyone asks you, I'm a rogue. Not a skyclanner"

Lightpaw narrowed her eyes. All of this... it was confusing, but at the same time, made perfect sense. He's worried he won't be accepted if everyone knows he's from a different Clan. Saying he's just a loner will make others feel more comfortable with him. Still... "But..." She looked back up at Soaringpaw. "Why wouldn't you want to let everyone know where you're really from? It's not like Ashstar will reject you; after all, you did save all of our lives."

Lightpaw found herself glancing around constantly to see if anyone else could hear their conversation. Based on what Soaringpaw was saying, it wasn't ment for all ears, and the last thing they needed was some other cat misinterpreting what they were saying. Accusations will be thrown, suspicions will arise, and no good could come from it. She perked her own ears and sharpened her senses, so she'd be aware if someone tried to sneak up on them. At one point, her gaze flashed to Goldenpaw, and she sent her a questioning gaze. What in StarClan is really going on?

[Gusty]

(Really sorry TehDerpyShoelace )

Blizzardfoot sat elegantly in the midst of the gathering. All around her, there was the buzzing of voices. A friendly chat here, a group of cheerful voices here. She supposed that all the felines were happy that the ‘Evil Era’ had come to a closure, and the normal leaders had regained their rightful positions. She herself was glad that Russetstar had taken control of RiverClan; he seemed like an excellent choice for leadership.

She was distracted. Not only by the droning murmuring of voices, but also because of something completely irrelevant to that. Pineshadow. How long has it been since the molly saw him? Moons, perhaps? It had been a while. Their meetings had become so infrequent and distant that she could hardly stand it.

She moved onto her paws in a graceful manner, turning her blue gaze upon the crowd in curiosity. He's probably at the gathering; most cats are. But where is he?

[Empress Of Evil]

Larkflight felt her heart swell; in the short time she'd known Brackenpaw, she'd taken a liking to the young tom, and since her former apprentice Kestrelstep had died just days after being named a new warrior, she vowed to strive to be the best mentor the young tom had.

"Have you met any of the apprentices from other Clans? Sometimes it's good to go beyond RiverClan's borders - for the Gathering, that is."


The thought of meeting other apprentices kind of scared him. He was a pretty antisocial cat. He had tried many times before within his own clan but failed. So he had stopped trying so hard. He preferred to stick close to the few that he knew. Like Larkflight, or Summerpaw, maybe even Mistfall. Yeah, he only had VERY few close ones. With his parents dead, and no littermates, there wasn't any family that he had. The closest he had to a family was his clan and the few friends he had in it. Brackenpaw was not aware of Larkflight's little secret. He didn't know that she had ever had kits, nor a mate.

Brackenpaw felt Larkflight touch her shoulder with her tail tip. It was a small yet somewhat useful comfort. Certainly it was something strange that no one was scrambling to hurt the other at first sight. It wasn't that Brackenpaw didn't like peace, he much preferred peace over conflict anyway, but he just wasn't so used to it. His mentor's next suggestion made him think hard. Should he go try making friends? He wasn't one to really do that kind of stuff. He was a loner amongst his clan and all the clans, would that ever change? "I haven't met anyone else yet. I've thought about it, but I can't say i'm too keen on the idea", The calico apprentice said, uncertainty in his voice.
