MAY 2011 GATHERING!

[кєηzι]

* Lilacstar

The pretty tabby she-cat came to the edge of fourtrees, peeking around the bushes down into the valley. Four oak trees stood tall surrounding the clearing in the middle. A large, stone rock was placed in one end off the clearing. Lilacstar's paws itched to jump onto the stone and tell of the tragedies of the missing cats in Riverclan. They'd just up and dissapeared, and Lilacstar suspected Thunderclan to be the reason why. She glanced around and let out a yowl, charging into the clearing, leading her warriors and apprentices onward.

Even though the she-cat had clan duties to take care of, she desperately needed to talk to Whitedawn. Whitedawn, where are you now?

* Dawnflight

_{Dawnflight glanced around the clearing, wondering if Jaggedstep would be there. She desperately missed her two kits, and wanted to know they were doing well... But she also wanted to tell Snakebite everything was going fine, and no one knew of Twokit's true parents.}

* Buttercuppaw

_{Buttercuppaw followed Lilacstar into the clearing, her grey paws beating hard on the ground. This was her first gathering, and hopefully her last as an apprentice. The orange and grey tabby she-cat was hopeful that Frostrunner would see her progress and soon make her an apprentice. Speaking of Frostrunner, where is he? Buttercuppaw wondered, glancing around the clearing with her bright green eyes.}

Snowstar ~ Shadowclan

A pure white shecat with ice blue eyes led her clan into the fourtrees clearing. She quickly stepped unto the rock where the leaders were supposed to sit, glancing around nervously. The death in her clan was starting to scare her, and she wasn't sure if she should share that with the other clan.
They may think we're weak..
Snowstar knew the other clans suspected that Shadowclan was disloyal and cheated, but she knew better. None of that was true.. They just had a dark past. She turned to see Lilacstar, but didn't say anything. The shecat hadn't been leader for a long time, so didn't want to make a fool out of herself. So, instead of saying words, she smiled warmly, and continued to look out unto the two clans who had arrived.

Monarchblossom ~ Riverclan

Monarchblossom sat in the clearing of the fourtrees, feeling utterly bored. She spotted Buttercuppaw, and rolled her eyes. The shecat was looking around looking like a complete moron through Monarchblossom's eyes.
It's not that big of a deal.
She then realized that this was the shecat's first gathering. Sighing, Monarchblossom dismissed the shecat from her mind. She could be thinking about far more interesting things than the annoying apprentice. In an attempt to cure her boredom, she looked around casually, trying to spot a tom or two to chat with.
Maybe even to fool around with..

xx. thunderclan

The light bengal she-cat wove through her Clanmates, a happy bounce in her step. This was her first Gathering as an apprentice and she felt as if she would explode of joy. Spottedpaw's faded green eyes glanced around wildly, admiring all the different Clans. She had ran in front of the rest of ThunderClan, and now she padded to the medicine cat area. Sitting down, the apprentice glanced around for her mentor, Jaderain.

Cobrastrike's ice blue eyes surveyed the other Clans in a calm way. He sat near the back of the Gathering, smoothing down his grey and white striped fur. The elder looked around, wondering if there were any cats his age around.

xx. windclan

The lean shape of Raggedpaw weaved through his Clanmates, his long legs trotting along. The apprentice wore a small half-smile that bore confidence. His haunting blue gaze traveled along the other Clans, searching for any interesting she-cat to talk to. He turned to the side, embracing his battle scars. A torn ear and a scar running along his right hind-leg, a reminder of his past. He only embraced them because it was an interesting conversation-starter, especially those of opposite genders. Raggedpaw's smile grew wider as he waited for a she-cat to approach.

xx. riverclan

Snowbliss stood out among her Clanmates, due to her solid white pelt. She ventured away from them, hoping to meet some new cats outside of RiverClan. She settled down near the center of the group of cats, her deep yellow eyes sparkling.

[riah]

Silversky ~ Windclan

Silversky padded into the clearing of the fourtrees, looking for other medicine cats to talk to. She preferred talking to other clans' medicine cats, rather than warriors, queens, or apprentices. They made her feel out of place, and nervous. Quickly, she padded over to where Spottedpaw was sitting, and took a place next to her, smiling warmly. "Hello there, Spottedpaw," she greeted, with a slight purr. She looked up to see that Jaderain had still not arrived.

Blackpaw ~ Thunderclan

Blackpaw padded behind the rest of his clan, a grim expression on his face. Since learning about his kit, he hadn't been acting as normal as usual. He didn't fool around as much as he used to, but spent his time alone; thinking.
Cause I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to do!
He looked around for the cat that was supposedly taking care of his kit. But then remembered that he had no idea what she looked like.
But I do know her name...
Yet again the tom looked around and immediately spotted Raggedpaw. An idea struck him. With new confidence, the apprentice padded over to Raggedpaw, and gave him a fake smile. "Long time no talk, Raggedpaw," he mewed, as he looked around to see if any cat was looking. No one was, so Blackpaw continued. "Is a cat named Dawnflight here by any chance? She's is in your clan, correct?" He asked, trying his best to sound casual. He didn't like Raggedpaw, but no one else needed to know that.
I'm only using him, after all.

[✿-L!LLY]

xx. thunderclan

Spottedpaw hadn't noticed the other medicine cat approaching, and jumped slightly at the sound of a nearby voice. She glanced around and nodded politely at Silversky. "Hi Silversky, how's WindClan?" she asked, hoping to make a good impression on the older she-cat.

xx. windclan

Raggedpaw had seen the other apprentice before he approached. His blue gaze narrowed slightly, but he forced a calm expression onto his face, his smile fading from his lips. He flicked his tail in greeting, his face as blank as stone. "Not long enough," he said playfully and added a slight chuckle at the end of his sentence, although he was completely serious. You are not a she-cat. Move outta the way, he thought bitterly to himself. She's in your Clan, correct? Raggedpaw looked at Blackpaw, his face still blank. Why's he asking about her? he wondered to himself. "Yeah, she's around somewhere," Raggedpaw replied, slowly, still wondering what this apprentice was up to now.

[riah]

Silversky ~ Windclan

The silver tabby's smile faded into a worried expression as she noticed that she had scared the apprentice. "Oh, I'm so sorry for startling you." She apologized, quickly.
"Hi Silversky, how's WindClan?"
The worried expression on her face then turned into a frantic expression. She didn't want to talk about it..
But I can't just say nothing..
"Erm, fine, thank you." She said, shortly. "What about Thunderclan?" She then added, hoping to push the weight off of the deaths happening in Windclan.
And that prophecy..

Blackpaw ~ Thunderclan

The tom could tell that Raggedpaw didn't want him around. They acted almost exactly alike, so Blackpaw could relate to him quite well.
Wish I didn't.
But, instead of showing his hatred, the apprentice kept smiling, hoping that this conversation wouldn't last too long. "Yeah, she's around somewhere," Blackpaw's insides tangled up.
Yes, she's here. Perfect.
"Well, would ya mind pointing her out to me?" He asked him, trying to act mischeivious.
I could pretend I wanted to hit on her..
Blackpaw thought about the idea. It didn't sound so bad, even if she did have a mate, he would just make it seem casual.
Plus it wouldn't last long.

Melodywind~~

The tabby she cat padded calmly down into four trees where all the cats came during a full moon. She stopped once among other cats and looked about. She needed to speak to Jaderain as soon as possible. She spotted the Medicine Cat through an opening gap between a couple of WindClan cats and she darted smoothly forward and padded up to the other cat. "Jaderain." She greeted the other cat.

Wishingrain~~

The elderly she-cat padded heavily up to Cobrastrike as she noticed him staring around. "Hey there old timer." She teased as she sat next to him and brushed her tail against his shoulder.

xx. thunderclan

Spottedpaw noticed Silversky's panic and wondered if the other Clans were experiencing troubles too. Should I say anything about it? she wondered, her green eyes widening slightly. I'll leave Jaderain with that, she thought, deciding her mentor knew best. "ThunderClan is well," she replied calmly.

Cobrastrike glanced over, a smile appearing on his lips when he saw Wishingrain. He chuckled at her greeting, enjoying the friendly touch of a buddy. "Old timer? I have no idea what you're talking about," he replied with a smile.

xx. windclan

Raggedpaw watched him with curious eyes. He knew Blackpaw was much like himself and, sadly, he could relate to the other tom. His nose crinkled up in slight disgust at the tom's words. "Whoa dude, isn't she a little... old for you?" he asked, eyeing the tom. Raggedpaw knew warriors were great fun, but he preferred the younger ones.

[riah]

Blackpaw ~ Thunderclan

"Whoa dude, isn't she a little... old for you?"
Shit.
The tom stared at Raggedpaw. He hadn't that of that. But if he didn't say something believable, he knew his secret would be out. And knowing Raggedpaw, he wasn't the best secret keeper in the world.
Wasn't wise for me to come to him.. Now was it?
Making sure his expression hadn't betrayed him, Blackpaw put on a smirk. "She's not too old for me." He said, trying to make it seem like he was bragging in a way. In which, he was. He could get more shecats than him. Whether Raggedpaw cared or not, Blackpaw felt pride in it. He was much older than the apprentice by at least five moons, and Blackpaw knew he should be made a warrior soon, but Snakebite seemed to be procrastinating it.
At least there's this difference between us.
"So, just answer my question. Where. Is. She?" Blackpaw said, his patience running out.

Silversky ~ Windclan

"ThunderClan is well,"
Silversky relaxed. As far as she could tell, the shecat wasn't suspicious. And if she was, the silver tabby couldn't tell. "That's good." Silversky purred. She looked at the sky suddenly, wondering if she should ask the apprentice something personal.
It could get a lot off my back..
"Say, Spottedpaw.." Silversky whispered, making sure no one else could hear besides the apprentice. "Have you had... Any weird dreams lately?"

[✿-L!LLY]

Spottedpaw's faded green eyes doubled their size as she looked up at Silversky. "Er, well, I haven't... you see, I'm so new to medicine cat life. Jaderain told me that she did," she replied, her tail flicking back in forth in worry. "What's going on with the Clans?" she whispered back, fear evident in her voice.

xx. windclan

She's not too old for me. Raggedpaw stared at the other tom, a tad grossed out. "Yeah, just do the elders while you're at it," he replied, louder than he meant to sound. He glanced around, searching for Dawnflight out of the crowd. He spotted her, then turned back to Blackpaw.I'm not apprieciating your tone, dude, he thought to himself. "Find her yourself, nastyass," he replied with his own curt voice. He wasn't going to let Blackpaw talk to him like that without getting a few words in.
