The Gathering Island

Darkfrost nuzzled Snowfeather before quickly following to where the rest of the deputies were supposed to be for gatherings. This was definitely not his first gathering, but it was his first gathering as a deputy.

Sundrop followed Ivorystar to the island with the rest of the BrightClan warriors that were also attending the gathering. She wondered what Ivorystar was going to say about the prey.

Swanfeather sat with her sister. This was her first gathering as a warrior and she couldn't wait for it to begin.

Snowfeather smiled after Darkfrost, sitting down with her head high.
--
Windwhisper edged closer to Swanfeather. There's so many cats not mingling.
--
Silversky padded to where the medicine cats go, frowning. Where are they all?

Ivorystar stretched before padding through the crowd of cats towards the Soultree.

Duskclan
Russetstar nodded curtly in response to Dapplestar and dug his claws into the branch as it swayed in the wind.
-
Robinblaze sat down, farther away from the tree and watched the other clan cats with a frown.
-
Beetlestorm smiled to a few Brightclan cats and waving his tail in greeting, hoping to meet a few new friends. He quickly took his seat as Redstar began.
~
Waterclan
Zebrapaw shrugged, "They seem like a bunch of scared minnows to me!" She whispered back to Nightfoot as the gathering began.
-
Twistedleg flicked his ear, "What happened to Morningshine?" He asked Hollyshade impatiently.
~
Brightclan
Skybreeze finally met Nightpelt's eyes and grinned, but her grin soon faded to a frown once she noticed his worried expression. How am I supposed to fight you if there's a battle? Skybreeze though, Nightpelt's thoughts seeming the same from the look on his face.
-
Tigerpounce nodded a hello to Jasperheart as she sat down beside Eagleblaze and himself.
-
Eagleblaze's gaze had completely wandered off, watching Silversky from afar and hoping she's see him.
~

Frostclan
Thornsplash flicked her tail tip back and forth as she watched the cats murmerdie down, although each clan kept their distance away from Brightclan except for Duskclan.
-
Graytail perked his ears, "Morningshine? Yes? I haven't heard of her in a while because of Frostclan's disconnection to Duskclan and Brightclan over the past moon." He explained sorrowfully.
-
Silvertalon watched as the cats talked with eachother and sighed, not knowing what to do. She awkwardly walked over and sat down with the other Frostclan cats.
~

Fireclan
Nightpelt met Skybreeze's eyes for a moment, both littermates seemed to think the same thing of the war. Nightpelt shook his head and looked back away.
-
Sunstep nodded to Frostflame, but just as he was opening his mouth in response, Redstar announced the gathering to begin. He shut his mouth and curled his tail around his paws neatly, watching the leaders up in the tree.

OOC: @JackTheReaper sorry for disappearing! I was at school

Littlelily smiled. "I'm currently fostering a 4 moon kit. What is it like to be a mother?"

Silversky looked at Hollyshade, also curious but paying attention to the leaders above too.

Ivyfeather stiffened at Hollyshade's news. "Poor Morningshine. She had served her clan very well over the last few seasons." Ivyfeather said. "I do hope she gets better."

Hollyshade frowned. "Even when she gets better, she'll probably have to give up her position as medicine cat of DuskClan." she meowed sorrowfully.

"That's really sad. She was a great medicine cat. All the clans will miss her." Ivyfeather said. I hoPe

Silversky nodded. "Who's the new medicine cat?" she asked Hollyshade.

Hollyshade shuffled her paws. She personally wanted to take over as a medicine cat, but she had no clue what Russetstar and Coldfoot would decide. "I-I'm not sure yet. Morningshine's currently been resting in the warriors den for the past few sunrises." she meowed.

Bluefeather sighed. "Hard, but worth it." She mewed, before looking up.

Ooc: why do I have so many cats...

Ic: Ivorystar climbed up the Soultree to her favourite branch, her tail flicking. "Evening," she greeted the other leaders.

Fawndapple looked around for Shadowblaze, trying not to look suspicious.

Stormpoppy yawned as she settled herself in the corner, not entirely sure if she wanted to talk to anyone.
Riverswoop did pretty much the same.

Ooc: I think the Gathering already started haha sorry I thought Ivorystar was already there

Ooc: it's okay hahah

Darkshadow, Riverpaw, and Nightmoon trot into the island and settle down, gazing up at the leaders.

Sunflight smiled at his sister before walking over to Darkshadow. "Hi!"



Littlelily smiled. "Is any of your kits here?"

She shook her head. "No, but they might next moon. My two oldest, Seakit and Tealkit, and still only five moons old. They have a brother Larkkit, and..." She stopped, looking down and failing to hide the fury and greif on her face. "... And the others are dead.." she mewed finally.

Darkshadow looked up. " hello. What clan are you from?" He asked, turning his glittering fgaze twoards him.

OOC: *cough cough* the Gathering has started

Icebreeze settled herself besides Nightmoon. She wanted to be with her always

Littlelily Looked up at the leaders. She muttered to Bluefeather. "I'm sorry..."



Sunflight looked up at the leaders. "I'm Duskclan.."


Lilyshadow stared up at Sandstar

Dapplestar stepped out onto the far reaches of her branch on the Soultree, getting as close to the crowd as possible.
"FrostClan has had good fortune, aside from a few mysterious robberies. Prey has been plentiful the past moon." she called, "However, we have noticed various intrusions."

Bluetail's ears pricked at her leader's words. It must be BrightClan! From what she heard last gathering they were being suspicious

Skyheart tensed.

Littlelily nodded. "I know.. But what if it happens to my kits..."


Sunflight stared up at the leaders.

Bluefeather gave a reassuring lick to Littlelily's forehead. "I was mouse-brained. I promise, your fear will defend your kits. You will not lose them." She mumbled, looking back up at Dapplestar.

Ivyfeather nodded solemnly at her leader's words. Dapplestar was probably going o accuse BrightClan and she would probably be right.

Ooc: @Littlelily and @Jackthereaper THE GATHERING HAS STARTED YOUR CATS SHOULD NOT BE TALKING 

IC: Ivorystar simply watched Dapplestar from her spot on the Soultree, her tail flicking.

OOC: LMAO SORRY I DIDN"T SEE THAT

Gingerwolf's tail wrapped around her paws, looking up at Ivorystar, then at Dapplestar. "Sheesh..." she mumbled quietly.


Bluefeather looked up again, her tail swaying from side to side.


Duskfur looked up at his leader quietly, not saying anything that might make the DuskClan cats angry.

Redstar curled her lip, revealing sharp white teeth. She swayed on her branch and waited if Dapplestar had anything else to say.

Gingerwolf's fur bristled. Was BrightClan going to attack? If that happened, then WaterClan would probably going to attack too, followed by FireClan!

FrostClan
Dapplestar turned to Ivorystar and Russetstar, a glare on her face. "Now, do either of you have explanation for your scent and the dead prey on our border?"

Sloeheart looked around nervously, not sure how the other Clans would react to this.
Hailstreak bushed up his tail, preparing for retort.

FireClan
Birchstripe wondered if Redstar would bring up Umberlight's death and Soraflight's account of it.

WaterClan
"Perhaps we should make them leave?" Rippleshade suggested, looking warily at the apprentices.

BrightClan
Jasperheart looked guiltily at her paws, remembering the raids.

Ivorystar glanced at Russetstar, then back to Dapplestar. "What exactly are you accusing us of?"

Ivyfeather stiffens. What if Ivorystar attacked the leaders?

Redstar ruffled her fur to make her look bigger, stepping forward and glaring at Ivorystar. "One of my most skilled warriors was killed because of you." she growled softly.

"Who said we were killing anyone?!" Ivorystar stayed where she was, the fur on the back of her neck prickling.

Skyheart gazed away. She had watched the warrior die. She was helping steal


Bluetail pounded the ground with her paws

Dapplestar's ears pricked in interest. This may have been nice to know about earlier, now she's leading the discussion.
"You look rather guilty." Dapplestar pointed out, tilting her head to Ivorystar, "Did you actually kill someone? I had no idea murder was involved, I just thought you were too incompetent to settle issues with honor and were stealing food!" 

OOC: If I remember it was Ivorystar personally who killed Umberlight

Ooc: I didn't RP that so I have no idea 

Ic: Ivorystar's tail flicked. "It is none of your businesses what goes on with my Clan," she growled.

Dapplestar sat down, looking at Ivorystar with a faint grin.
I'm sure Redstar can handle it from here.

Would BrightClan really kill a senior warrior? Ivyfeather thought. Her tail was lashing

Redstar's neck fur bristled. "If I remember correctly, it was your personal scent over my warriors dead body." she hissed.

OOC: Yeah, I powerplayer Ivorystar during the raids so I just went along with it hahahah

Ooc: welp lol

Ic: Ivorystar flicked her tail. "You're accusing me of murdering a cat, then?" she growled, not noticing the specks of rain that started to fall against her coat.

Redstar flattened her ears as a drizzle began to fall over the clearing. She ignored it and narrowed her eyes at Ivorystar. "I'm not accusing you," she snarled. "You did it."

OOC: Yeah, sorry heheh

Ooc:if this is not acceptable please delete it! 

Ic: Darkshadow lept to his paws, and snarled up at Ivorystar. " Don't deny it! Your filthy scent was all over my mentor!"

"How dare he say that to our leader!" Icebreeze growled to Nightmoon next to her
