Gathering

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar looked upon the Shadowclan warriors. "We do no demand your help. We ask for it. If you do not want to help your fellow clans that is Swiftstars decision. But Thunderclan will aid anyone in need." , She said in a clear voice." I will not hold you responsible for your own decisions but i can not speak for every cat in my clan," She then looked around Waiting for someone else to speak.

[CROOKY]

Crookedheart knew it was her time to speak. She walked up besides Tanglestar placing her tail comfortingly on her shoulder. "I have yet to become leader of my clan but I speak now and say that if any clan calls for help Riverclan will aid if they can." She called out to the crowd. "It is not natural to band together but we must watch each others backs in these times if we are to survive." She waited for any other leader to say anything.

---

Patchedfoot gasped at the new. "Oh no..." She knew that the leader had been a very good friend of Streamfur. "I am sorry Streamfur that is disasterous new. Although in these times you are lucky you have a strong deputy ready to lead the clan." She commented.

---

Whispertail hissed as Fallenlight exited the clearing. Then he heard something of banding together with the other clans. "As you can see we held our own with this group last time and we can surely do it again." He growled at Tanglestar. His clan didnt need any help from outside. Shadowclan was strong enough to stand on its own two feet.

---

"It would seem so Wavesong." Hazelthorn unsheaved his claws when the cat mentioned a threat to his clan. "I'd like to see him try anything at our camp. We have an abundance of warriors ready to fight. He snorted blowing off the threat immediatly.

---

Rancid growled at a couple apprentices on his way out of the clearing following Fallenstar. He himself was tired of fighting.

[poppyseeds]

Streamfur sighed. "No need for you to be sorry, Patchedfoot, you didn't cause it," she meowed, closing her eyes. "But Duskstar was like my best friend and now he's gone." She looked up at Crookedheart again, shaking her head once more.

SnowFeather bounded into the Gathering, not caring if she was leader or not. She heard what everyone said, leaping up where CrookedHeart was standing. "TangleStar is right! You never know what these rogues can do!" She exclaimed out of the clearing, "We NEED to be together, to make everyone safe! There was ALWAYS five clans in the forest, here, everywhere, and it needs to stay that way!" She exclaimed again. She jumped off where the leaders stood, quickly racing up to where Rancid was. "now you, Why do you do this? I can tell you don't like it.." She said, her tail lashing back and forth. She suddenly turned, looking at FallenLight, "And You! Why do you do it? Why do you force others?" She hissed.

-----
RunningPath was surprised when Snowfeather ran up there, exclaiming this to them. She looked at WhisperTail, "Do you think she's right..?" She murmured, glancing at everyone else.

-----
SpottedPaw paused, knowing SnowFeather was right. She exclaimed, "She's right! We do need to band together!" She sat back down, licking her fur down, acting like she was the perfect little angel.

The mangy cat followed his leader, looking back when Fallenstar was asked why he forced cats to join.

"We're not forcing anyone, yet," He said, his voice very cool and the emotion was almost caring. Grungepelt could have elaborated. He simply left it at that, turned away from the RiverClan cat and padded after the rest of his clan.

>>solo

Stomach churned. Frantic, yellow eyes glanced from leader to leader. The prophecy rolled in his mind. It could be too early. Ths might just be a coincidence... Oh, StarClan, he wished it was.

[Deleted]

SnowFeather growled under her breath, "I wasn't asking you!" She hissed, her back starting to arch. She stopped what she was doing, her head turning to FallenLight, "So.. Tell me, why are you trying to force cats, trying to threat them?" She mew'd, her eyes cold.

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar hissed in fury then calmed herself. She called for silence then continued by saying, "You and you "Clan" are not welcome here. This is a place of peace and you bring war. Leave or face Starclan's wrath." She was angry but needed to keep her warriors calm or this could be disastrous. She needed to keep her clan calm and the other leaders need to do the same.

[Deleted]

RunningPath looked around, then sighed. She wanted to be back at camp, she wanted to sleep this off. She wanted her worries to be gone, and fade away.

----

SpottedPaw purred softly, trying to keep calm herself. She suddenly leaped up to TangleStar, sitting below her. "Why do you try so hard?" She tilted her head, "I mean.. You don't need to!" She purred, "TangleStar, we all know that you want to tear those rogues limb from limb." She sighed, then looked up at her. "I know you aren't part of my clan, but I want to be just like you! I'll be a leader, and be such a great leader like you, you care so much!" She purred quite loudly, not caring.

A shiver rippled through the white tom's pelt. He hoped that they wouldn't attack. They couldn't attack, they wouldn't have enough cats. Would they? Pushing the thought away he watched as a white female padded away with the other cats from 'Lurkclan'. She looked remarkably like himself, he didn't know why...

Lillywhisker followed the rest of her group silently, staring at the cats faces. Some she knew, other's she didn't. Yet all would come to the same fate eventually. Plodding along she met Wavesong's gaze for a moment, before her lips turned up in a sneer and a growl rumbled through her small body. They wouldn't make it out alive, and she'd make sure Wavesong was the first to go.

[Deleted]

SnowFeather backed away, her head bowing down. She wasn't giving up, she wanted the clans to get together, to fight them off. The clans had enough warriors, enough warriors to get them out. She felt watched, so she looked in the direction, looking at Wavesong. "Why you looking at me?" She tilted her head, but shook it again. She looked back at the clan named, 'LurkClan.' She sighed, "You might as well give up!" She howled at them, as they finally left.

[Deleted]

Spottedfire

Spottedfire's fur prickled as she watched LurkClan exit. She could see the coldness in their eyes, and it made her remember how Silentstar had been bathed in blood by the time she had returned to camp. But at Tanglestar's words of joining together, she wanted to yowl in fury. "The last thing ShadowClan needs is to have to work with the mixed-blood of ThunderClan," she hissed under her breath.

[Deleted]

RunningPath couldn't believe she was about to do this, "SpottedFire, Listen. What if the Rogues hurts our clans? Do you want us to be even weaker than we are now?" She yowled at her deputy. "Do you think I enjoy working with ThunderClan either? No! But I want to keep our clan LIVING!" She yowled of protest, her tail lashing back and forth.

[Deleted]

Spottedfire's amber eyes blazed as the warrior accused her. "Runningwind, I have no intention of making ShadowClan looking weak. I don't like ThunderClan, but I never said I wouldn't work with them if it was for the sake of the Clan." Still bristling, she turned her attention away from the dark colored she-cat and to Swiftstar. "I say that we go along with ThunderClan's proposal. It's in times like this that the Clans need to put aside their differences and work together."

[Deleted]

RunningPath's tail swayed side to side, thinking to herself, It sounded like she did! She growled to herself, padding back towards WhisperTail. She looked at him, then sat down. She sighed, her fur still bristling.

----

SpottedPaw gazed at RunningPath and SpottedFire, quite amazed at how RunningPath confronted her deputy. She would never do that! Her tail lashed back and forth.

[CROOKY]

Whispertail whipped his head to Runningpath. "I think Snowfeather needs to know where her place is. Its true what she says however." When he heard of spottedfire talking of banding together he hissed. "And what does this "banding" consist of? Sharing lands and prey? I wont have it in Shadowclan, Spottedfire we are stronger then this. We dont need any clans help." He said fury pulsing through his veins.

---

Patchedfoor licked Streamfur on the cheek in comfort. "I know what it is like to lose a friend, but he hunts with starclan and will forever watch you from above. He may visit you in your dreams as well." He commented to make the cat feel better.

---

Rancid looked at the cat impunitly. "You will be the first to go." He said blankly walking out of the gathering with nothing else to say. His tail in the air
