Coyotestar's sleek thin body slid through the bushes, leading her clan into the clearing. She leaped onto the Great Rock and watched as her clan settled down and waited for the others.
A slight shudder passed through Foulstep along with a sudden rush of anger as he remembered when his father died here. He found an isolated, shadowed area of the clearing and sat down.
Goldencloud sped in after her brother, wishing he wasn't so down from their father's death. She sat near the center of the clearing and looked for Hailstorm.

OOC: Noblestar will bring BlazeClan in late, he's helping his Clan thwart a pack of foxes. XD
Stormstar walked calmly into the clearing, and sat down in her new spot. She looked around, seeing that she was the second one to arrive with her Clan. She glanced at Coyotestar, knowing that Stallionspirit had been her mate, and obviously at the last Gathering he had been murdered. She sighed; when other cats were down she usually went down with them.
Opalstone hurried into the clearing. She turned her gaze to the only other Clan there - MeadowClan. She sighed. I wish Smolderstar would get here, so I could see Winterpatch, she thought. The truth was, she had realized she truly loved him.
Sleetpaw trotted contentedly into the bustling place of tradition. She looked at the ground beneath her paws; too many cats to count had walked here as long as anyone could remember. She smiled. She welcomed the peace of the Clans greatly.
Falconwing padded into Ten Stones and sat down, looking for Whiterose.
Foxstride appeared, and then Lavendersong, beside him.

Ebonysky padded in with the rest of Duneclan and looked around, trying to find some other deputies to talk to. When he didn't see any, he settled on talking to someone else. He walked over to Foulstep. "Hello." He meowed. "How is your clan doing?"
Palewind padded in behind Meadowclan and looked around. He padded over to Opalstone. "How's the prey running?" He asked.
Duskcall and Jackalfang padded into the clearing, their heads held high. This was their first gathering as warriors. Jackalfang quickly ran off to see Sleetpaw. "I bet this is your last gathering as an apprentice." He meowed, trying to make her happy.
Arcanestar padded into the clearing at the head of Boulderclan. It was his first gathering as leader, and he was really nervous. He jumped onto the Great Rock and meowed a greeting to the other leaders.

Whiterose sneaked up behind falconwing,"Hey!" She laughed.
Rubypaw, dancingheart and jemheart padded into the clearing.
Rubypaw spoke first."Well, aren't they lovely clans?"
Dancingheart and jemheart didn't answer because they were not exited to see their old friends again from rageclan.

[.//:I can’t break away from these chains to my heart:.]
From the shadowed woods that wove heavily along the edges of Ten Stones, emerged a massive gray cat. His head held high with the utmost noble stature. A string of cats followed his lead, just pawsteps behind. The gray tom's pale green eyes glazed the sacred Ten Stones. He paused for a moment at the top of a hill crest, and nodded his head for his clan to go ahead to intermix with the cats who inhabited other clans.
[.//:The further you push me the closer you are:.]
A night breeze rippled down his spine, and he adverted his green gaze to the full moon. This Gathering was different. No longer was he known as Smolderstone, but DreamClan had chosen him to lead AshClan. To his unexpectance, a elderly silver she-cat, who's blue eyes were as bright as a star, despite her age, brushed lightly against him.
[.//:Maybe I should try to let go, maybe I should try to walk away:.]
"I remember my first Gathering as leader," she rasped, touching his flank with her thin tail. The charcoal tom smiled at her,"Perhaps you are the only cat who knows what I'm feeling now, Featherstep." "Every ounce of it Smolderstar," she grinned at him slyly before tearing off to catch up with the rest of the clan.
[.//:There’s nothing left to say:.]
Smolderstar bounded off the grassy hilltop as well, leaving his daydreams and worries behind. He soaked in the feeling as cats smelling of many different clans observed him leaping confidently to the Great Stone. "Greetings" he murrowed to the other gathered leaders.

Lonemist appeared with AshClan, and sat down gazing idly at the other cats. His eyes unfocused, he just sat there, not really taking in the Gathering this time.
Stormstar turned and watched both leaders approach. She dipped her head formally in adknowledgement of their presence, though she was hiding her true feelings. Anxiety pulsed through her veins and she glanced down at her paws. She was going to make a fool of herself, and her Clan! She gulped down the fears and pushed the troubles aside, looking back at the two leaders. "Hello Arcanestar, hello Smolderstar," she meowed, keeping her voice steady.
Sleetpaw sighed at the mention of her apprentice name. "Softsky promised to make me a true medicine cat," she stated hopelessly, "And then...she didn't." She looked up at the array of shining specks in the black sea of darkness above her head - Silverpelt. The dark night sky above her was littered with stars, and she wondered how many generations it held. It seemed endless. She hardly noticed the moon; it meant nothing to her. But then she heard a sound and swiveled her ears towards it. Turning around, she looked and saw a starry figure approaching.

Dreamwalker walked in with Duneclan and stared around. This was his first gathering ever, as hard as that was to believe. He never knew why but he was never allowed to a gathering, being her now made him feel like an apprentice.
Northbreeze walked slowly towards the gathered cats. This was his first gathering as a full med. cat, and he was excited as ever. Looking around he tried to spot another med. cat. His brother Southgust, Eastwind, and Westwind, followed but split up.
Wolfeyes trotted in with Ashclan his eyes dull as ever. But anyone who knew him knew that excitement was behind those eyes. He had never been one to show his emotions freely.

Winterpatch slid into the clearing like a shadow moving across the grass. He hid in the shadows of the gathering and if anyone looked closely they would be able to see the white patch on his chest and realize he was there.

Sandstar lead BeachClan into the clearing then jumped on top of the great rock and sat down waiting for the other clans to arrive.
Rainbowpaw looked around for someone to talk to. It was his first time to go to a gathering so he was really exited.
Hailstorm found Goldencloud then sat down beside her waiting for the gathering to start.
Jadefeather went to talk to Northbreeze." So how does it feel to be the new medicine cat of BoulderClan?" he asked him.
Blazingpaw looked for his mentor since it was his first gathering and he didn't know what to do.

Falconwing laughed and brushed his pelt against Whiterose's. "I love you," he murmured to her.
"Who are you?" Sleetpaw asked the DreamClan warrior. She didn't recognize her, and she wasn't the she-cat Stormcloud had described as her aunt, Amberheart.
"My name is Fearowstar," the she-cat replied. She locked eyes with Sleetpaw, looking serious. Taking a deep breath, she filled Sleetpaw in.
"New territory will disturb the content peace of the clans. So new, vast, rich with prey, unexplored and pined for by every leader for his own clan. The peace you have enjoyed knowing for the past moons, will evaporate within mere sunrises. Blood will trickle like that of the blood that runs through the veins of your kin in a stream towards the salty sea from each land. I can profess to you that one clan will refuse to listen to the warnings of DreamClan. They will have to change their ways completely to survive the horrible times ahead. Only time will tell which clan that will be. Greed and ambition will overpower even the strongest of warriors. Difficult times are set out ahead. Clans paired together despite the rage and alliances will survive. Ten shall become four as in the time of the ancient clans of the old forest, and spiritual battles must occur to save the rebel."

Whiterose smiled as she purred."I love you too.'' She felt warm against falconwing's pelt and she licked his ear.
Silverdream walked up behind winterpatch."It looks like your hiding from someone." She then walked past him and started walking over to stonestream."Hi"
Icystrike and hurricanepelt watched from the sky.
Hurricanepelt spoke to icystrike."Do you think sleetpaw will figure it out?"
Icystrike shook her head."I don't know., but the new prophecy has begun."
Hurricanepelt took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
Jewelstrike eyes gleamed because it was her first time at the gathering as deputy. She didn't know if the clans would annonce the new deputys. She wasen't sure of what was going to happen.
OCC: Intresting

Sleetpaw blinked as Fearowstar dissappeared. She gasped, and whipped around. Without hesitation, she rushed forward and jumped up with the leaders. She turned to the Clans, not seeming to care that she was interrupting the leader's conversations. "EVERYONE!" she yelled, "I just saw a starry cat of DreamClan, who claimed to be named Fearowstar. I suppose she died when I was kit, for I've never heard of her. Yet she told me a prophecy!" Her eyes slid out of focus as she tried to remember the prophecy word for word. "New land will disturb the content peace of the Clans. Every leader will...," she mewed, glassy eyed, "Will pine for it for his or her Clan. The peace we've all known for past moons, will evaporate within mere sunrises. Blood will trickle like blood that runs through the veins of our kin in a stream towards the sea from each land. Fearowstar said one Clan will refuse to listen to the warnings. They will have to change their ways completely to survive the horrible times ahead. Only time will tell which Clan that will be. Greed and ambition will overpower even the strongest of warriors. Difficult times are set out ahead. Clans paired together despite the rage and alliances will survive. Ten shall become four as in the time of the ancient clans of the old forest, and spiritual battles must occur to save the rebel." She paused, taking a deep breath.

Northbreeze gave a small smile, "It's great, but such a big job, so many count on me. I'm afraid to let them down." He turned his head swiftly as he heard Sleetpaw. 'Why come to an apprentice when there are so many leaders and med. cats around?' He wondered as he listened.
Rainpaw silently filed in after Beachclan happily enjoying what she hoped to be her last gathering as an apprentice.

Emberpaw was shifting her paws uneasily. She sat beside her brother Shadowpaw and was nervous because it was her first gathering as an apprentice.
A slight shudder went down Sootstar's spine as she entered the clearing with RageClan. She scrambled up the great rock and sat about a tail length from Coyotestar, mewing a quick greeting to the leaders that were already there.

Icystrike gave a small laugh."I did not expect that. I figured sleetpaw would tell the medicine cat and then the medicine cat told the rest of them and so on."
Hurricanepelt shruged.
