Gathering #4

[Windchime '07]

The bundle of red fluff disapeared behind her mentor, relishing the gift of Clanhood. She wouln't have it any other way.

[Stormstar]

[glow=blue,4,000]Sailing down from the Great Rock, Stormstar padded past Wingclaw, checking over his shoulder to look at Pheonixpaw. Spinning round, Stormstar sprang forward, landing beside the crippled Apprentice.

"Pheonixkit, what are you doing with WindClan?" Stormstar meowed, keeping his voice neutral. He did not want to frighten the young cat and turn her against him like her Mother, Windstorm.[/glow]

[Silentpaw]

Silentpaw rushed down into the hollow, matching her Mentor stride for stride. The Apprentice should have been a Mentor by now, but Silentpaw had been kitnapped as a Kit and grown up without training. "Windchaser, who are the cats on the Great Rock?"

[Greyheart~Flametail+bloodclaw]

bloodclaw was walking behined stormstar he noded at the other clan cats just watching for danger

[Windchime '07]

[glow=dodgerblue,2,300]|| Stormy, let's just say that Windstorm didn't come kay? It's be way too hectic -nods at comment made by leader- I know I've been slow on things Don't rub it in ^^ ||[/glow]

Spinning to see her ex-leader infront of her, the young apprentice froze, her giant amber orb flickering with worry while the other meerely reflected the picture of Stormstar siloetted by the moon's fingers. But Phoenixpaw did not shrink back from Him and huddle into Wingclaw's side, she stood defiantly and stared at the smoke-hued tom. Autumn-red pelt ruffled by the leaf-bare wind, and littered by the flurries that drifted from the heavens down upon the gathering blow--the she cat raised her voice. "And what are you doing down from the Great Rock, sir?" she asked--it was obvious she had inherrited the same cheeky way of talking to athority that her mother had. She let her paws bristle for a while, holding Stormstar's green-gold gaze with her own. She never faltered, although she slipped one paw closer to Wingclaw for support.

[Greyheart~Flametail+bloodclaw]

bloodclaw watched the small cat hide behined wingclaw he felt sorry for the small apprentice

[spottedleaf]

Ebonypaw smiled and nodded at Moonstar, " Can I really?" he asked happily. He was going to talk to his father for the first time ever!

[Wingstar]

Wingclaw looked at the leader and the apprentice. She could have simply stepped between the two and be done with it, but she wanted to see how Phoenixpaw would handle it. This would be interesting. Wingclaw moved her tail and tapped Phoenixpaw's paw for support

[*:Moonstar~Melodypaw:*]

"Yes." Said Moonstar as she smiled at her apprentice.

[Greyheart~Flametail+bloodclaw]

bloodclaw was watching this all

[Frost]

[glow=red,2,300]Padding slowly forward till she reached the two Rouges, Blackthorn and Phantom, Frost remained standing as she watched Pheonixpaw. The BloodClan Warrior had let Pheonixpaw go for Soul's good attempt at murdering the WindClan Apprentice, Brownpaw. Brownpaw herself was not present, but the second victim, Vixenpaw, now Vixenchaser, was present and so was Stormstar, the final target. Each time, Windstorm had failed, yet Frost had given in and released the Kits.

However, Frost had sowed the first seeds of treachery in Shiningpaw's mind, each one powered when Pheonixpaw had abandoned her beloved sister. Frost smiled in contempt of the crippled Apprentice, for it was all down to her that Shiningpaw came back to Frost. Little did Soul know that her eldest daughter had turned her youngest daughter into a killing machine, for the little Apprentice had extra training every now and then.

"So, Phantom," Frost meowed, keeping her voice low, "This is a Gathering. Did you ever attend one when you were part of ShadowClan?"[/glow]

[Stormstar]

[glow=blue,4,000]"Pheonixpaw, does your Mother know you left RiverClan to join WindClan?" Stormstar meowed, realising that he was alerting Winglcaw to where Pheonixpaw had come from. I shall speak with Silverstar... Stormstar thought to himself, And Windstorm.[/glow]

[Windchime '07]

A flicker of annoyance flashed through her Amber disc, yet she winked to clear it away. You aren't my leader... I don't have to reply to RiverClan! her mind snapped. but, Phoenixpaw abandoned the more noble responce and flung another rude sentace at the rain-cloud leader. "Does StarClan know you have left them to speak with me?" she asked, snapping a blank look at Shiningpaw who was speaking to anbother apprentice not far off. It was the entire truth, though... even if she had put it out in an ignorant way. The gathering was being posponed--and for what?

Looking through the flurries of snow, Phoenixpaw could make out the shape of three cats. Only blurrs in the Darkness. But moonlight not only offered sight in darkness--it offered trickery. What the fire-lapped apprentice saw in the gloom was her mother's silver pelt. Windstorm! she silently cheered, she hadn't seen her mother in ages! Unaware that Windstorm was truthfully back at camp, preparing for her next litter Phoenixpaw slipped away from Stormstar. He should get the gathering moving anyway. her mind grumbled.

She forced herself into the gloom, whilest fending off clinging buckthorn brances. They tugged at her pelt as if trying to keep her from 'Windstorm'. Limping fureously, Phoenixpaw ripped at the branches and foliage, untill stumbling face-first into the clearing. "Mama!" she mewed, while scrabbling clumsily up onto all fours. "I missed you so much! Why're you in th--" she stopped dead, her heart lapping at her chest in pure fear as the scent of it filled the little buckthorn hollow. She had shifted her wait to her rear to sit down, catching a glimpse of her 'mother's' turning face. The eyes she was looking into were not the soft oceanic blue orbs she had remembered. But the cruel sickly yellow discs of her aunt. Frost.

[Whitetail]

Whitetail sat and watched the ongoing actions of his Clan mates and other Clans. He saw his apprentice, Bitterpaw, and Copperpaw together. Bitterpaw seemed to have grown a fancy to Copperpaw.

Whitetail sat next to his friend Rubytail and watched Gingerpelt who seemed nearby.

[Greyheart~Flametail+bloodclaw]

bloodclaw did not feel comfortable with all these other clan cats around he could feel evil some were

[Windchime '07]

ooc-i'm bitterpaw on my friends account thingy

Bitterpaw turned and saw Whitetail looking at her and he mate-to be... once she knew he knew her anger poured out like a leak that has grown over time. She pounced on Copperpaw and began scratching and hissing. How dare he do this? AGAIN!

[Flamefur]

Flamefur walked over to Moonstar, "How is the clan Moonstar?" he asked politly, he had met the shadowclan leader several times before.

[*:Moonstar~Melodypaw:*]

"The clan is doing great Flamefur." Said Moonstar politly to the RiverClan deputy who she had met many times before.

[Stormstar]

[glow=blue,4,000]"You have your Mother's tongue," Stormstar meowed before the Apprentice could slip away. Turning to Wingclaw, Stormstar meowed, "Did you know of this, Wingclaw?"[/glow]

[Frost]

[glow=red,2,300]((My eyes aren't sickly, Windstorm ))

Silver auds swivelled as she heard the sudden cry of Soul's Warrior name, Frost sneered in disgust and calmed the horror that rose in her belly. Lifting her head, Frost caught the scent of Clash, the BloodClan Warrior who had forced himself upon her, and shuddered, terror overcoming her. A small tug on her silver fur alerted the she-cat to Pheonixpaw's sudden appearance.

Turning her head alone, worry rattled through Frost's bones as she realised that she had been discovered by none other than her niece. Restraining a hiss, the BloodClan Warrior spun round and sprang at the Apprentice, attacking her blind side, feeling a satisfaction as she realised that it was her claws that had crippled Soul's daughter. Forcing her silver paw over Pheonixpaw's mouth, Frost pushed her head close to the Apprentice had hissed, "Not a word if you value your life," Realising that Pheonixpaw might sacrifice her life to save the Clans, Frost added, "And those of your siblings."[/glow]

[spottedleaf]

Ebonypaw padded silently over to the Riverclan leader. "um, Hi." he said quietly, looking into his father's eyes, pleading with him to remember...

[Windchime '07]

|| Sure they aren't... surtheyarent' ^^ ||

Struggle entered her being as the looming silver menace held her. She yanked herself away from her aunt's grasp, panting fureously. But something inside of her let go. Something--disloyal about her bowed to Frost's will like some sort of servant. It made the half-Clan apprentice sick. She lothed herelf and Frost even more for it. She turned her head away from her, yet did not move. Phoenixpaw wasn't even aware of why she was obeying the BloodClan warrior like an unindependant kit. Flicking her tail irratably, Phoenixpaw lay down and rested her head on her ginger-hued paws, ignoring the stares that came from Blackthorn and Phantom. She didn't want to hear the wretched voice of her aunt again... unless it was her dieing breath. Yet somthing deep within Frost's neice made her close to her aunt. Perhaps... it was the need for a mother.

[Wingstar]

Wingclaw flicked her tail. "Know of what?" she meowed in a defiant tone. She turned away from the leader and padded away calmly. She didn't want to get caught up in this mess. She would rather watch it from a distance and see how it would end.

[xx the brownster]

Brownstar realized that all the Leaders were here. They needed to start soon. "Stormstar, Silverstar, Moonstar," she said in a timid vioce, "should we chose who is to speak first?" She sat with her tail curled around her brown body.

[spottedleaf]

Ebonypaw sat down, raven black pelt rippling gracefully as the wind moved it. Please remember! I'm Ebonykit! You and Picklepelt's kit! Remember me please! his mind screamed as he kept looking at his father, a role modle you could say.

[*:Moonstar~Melodypaw:*]

"yes." Said Moonstar as she waited for Silverstar and Stormstar.

[Silentclaw]

Phantom gave his old apprentice a curious look, but the sounds of a struggle made him look back. Frost and Phoenixpaw seemed to be having a fight. Phantom glared at them."Can you two make anymore noise? The point s to stay hidden Frost, not let all the clans know you're here." Phantom stared at Phoenixpaw with light amber eyes. "What's with the apprentice anyway? Somehow Frost, you just don't strike me as the motherly type." Silentclaw's words dripped with scorn. There was something secretive about Frost, and it annoyed him that he didn't have an idea to what that was. His blue tinged eyes narrowed as the stared at the she'cat.

[Dragonstar :: Doodle]

[glow=red,4,000]Dragonheart looked around him something made him feel uneasy.... he sat down and looked up at the leaders it looked as though they were going to start the gathering. What was it that made him uneasy?[/glow]

[w i n d y o <3]

Windchaser sat near the rock Moonstar was sitting on. She wasthinking of something and did not realize thw ongoing commotion.

[Greyheart~Flametail+bloodclaw]

bloodclaw felt uneze like something bad was going to hapen
