+++Gathering of November 2006+++

[~Snowstar~]

((OOC: Rules for the Gathering are~ *All the usual ones, as well as, *No other cats must talk while the Leaders are giving their speeches))! ;D ;D


Snowstar took a deep breath before leading her Clan down the bank towards the clearing. So far she could not see any others who may have arrived, but that did not mean they were not watching through the trees.
She raced down the bank boldly. It was funny really; an hour ago she had been sitting worrying, but suddenly she felt like she could take on Froststar anytime she pleased. Not that she intended to do any fighting (although she was sure that would come at some point in the future), but it was handy to have courage. Perhaps Blazingstar had heeded her call and given her strength.

As the rest of SnowClan merged into her surroundings, talking and chattering about what would happen this evening, she sat on the edge of everything, waiting. Waiting for the other leaders. Waiting for any trouble. Waiting for Froststar.

[Whisperstar]

Whisperstar let out a lazy yawn before giving the signal. The end of her tail flicked lazily, but she headed down to the Gathering at a rather fast speed. Couldn't hurt. She grave a wry smile to Snowstar, wondering what the other leader was thinking about. Despite her show, Whisperstar was uneasy. Mnay things had been happening lately. Froststar for one. Who knew what she would bring up at this Gathering?

Waiting for the other leaders, Whisperstar kept up her lazy, relaxed deminure. To the other cats, she would seem quite content. And part of her was. A small part.

[Froststar]

OOC: Hehe this will be fun!))
OOC: Are any other leaders on the Rock?))

Froststar stalked down the bank after giving the signal, she trusted all would follow. She coolly surveyed the Gathering and noted Whisperstar and, her eyes narrowed, Snowstar. With all the serenity of the most powerful cat there she continued her stalk over to the Great Rock and leapt up looking down at the FrostClan cats and hoping [something she hardly ever did] that Strongclaw could control their tongues...

[~Snowstar~]

Snowstar kept her features neutral. She could tell that Froststar was annoyed by her appearance, by this did not fluster her. I'll wait, she though to herself, until Dovestar arrives, before joining them on the Great Rock.
As she looked around, she noted how stiff everyone looked. She wished these times of hate to pass; the forest itself seemed tense.

__________________________________________________________________________


Strongclaw shot a warning look around the rest of FrostClan. According to Froststar, they were to speak of nothing, and he would enforce her word above any other's.
He scowled in the direction of the two other leaders: Whisperstar of RainClan, and, the one who he knew his leader dreaded, Snowstar of SnowClan.

Tweedcoat groaned slightly as she noted the Froststar. "Stupid Fool," she muttered under her breath. After looking around at the other cats, she chose a spot in the center of the clearing and sat down. She would try her best to relax until the arguing began; it was sure to begin.
She licked her paw daintily and then wondered whether her friend, Softwhisper, from SnowClan, was lurking nearby. She looked around.

[Froststar]

Froststar looked down and noted Strongclaw's vigilance, it was good! She made a mental note to share slightly more of her plans with him as a reward....
*
Softwhisper groaned, not another Gathering! She hissed at an apprentice that came to near and surveyed the grounds. She noted Froststar sitting proudly on the Great Rock and her head flicked around to check on Snowstar, thinking 'she needs someone to check up on her, the young cat is spreading herself to thin..... Suddenly she saw a familiar pelt and hobbled over showing no dignity whatsoever to her friend Tweedcoat, "what do you think will happen tonight?" she asked panting from the sudden burst of energy.

[Blazingstar]

_{The sleek black and white she-cat padded into the clearing. Her penny copper optics surveyed the cats that sat around the Great Rock. She knew a few cats from the different clans. Crowpelt sat, her tail curling around her paws. She looked around to see what other leaders were present. It seemed like Dovestar was the only one left. Bending her head down she licked at her scarred tail.}

[~Snowstar~]

((OOC: Dovestar? Dovestar?? Where are yooouuu))??


Tweedcoat let out a purr of delight. "Well hello, Softwhisper!" her friend had cheered her up imensely. "Well," she bent her head forwards and began to whisper in her gossiping tone, "I'm not too sure. Can't be anything good though..."

[dovestar]

((Soo, sorry! I got caught up in everything! She's coming!!))

Dovestr appeared into the clearing with SunClan, she walked over to the other leaders and dipped her head. "Sorry I'm late." she mewed.

[Froststar]

OOC: Blazingstar is the only male leader!))

Froststar nodded curtly, the merest sign of noticing the other queen's presence. "Shall we begin?" she asked, her tail flicking casually and dangerously against the rock. This was a Gathering she truly could not wait to start. By the end of tonight her arch nemesis Snowstar was going to be stunned and hopefully pliable...

[Whisperstar]

So, are we using some form of the evil Froststar taking over the forest thing?)

"Of course." Whisperstar was the first to bound up onto the great rock, and she waited patiently for the other leaders. She would have to be sure of all that was happening before she made her move. She needed to speak last, and if Froststar was acting the way she was it probably would be farely easy. Yet, she could not help but wonder what was going to happen. And hope it wouldn't bring total disaster.

[Froststar]

OOC: Soz I only have about five mins on the internet currently so I'll make this brief.
Whisperstar; yes we are using the plot in this Gathering
Everyone; If you have any cats that aren't leaders and have a reason to talk to cats from other clans now, I would suggest you rp them now because the leaders are about to start talking.))

*

"Yes it would appear so," Softwhisper replied. "However I heard from that old FrostClan cat, you know Dapplecoat? That Froststar is going to do something completely unpredictable tonight?" She waited eagerly for her friend's reply...

*

Moonheart watched Whisperstar jump onto the Great Rock carefully, there was no telling what Froststar would dare to do tonight. He bared his teeth as she surveyed the grounds carefully and he noted her condescending smile at him. "One day," he muttered, "one day..."

*

Goldenfur bounced into the Gathering excitedly, she looked behind her for Smokeyeyes though it was too dark to distinguish individual cats. Tonight was going to be so amazing! Looking up to the Great Rock she saw that three leaders were already up there including; Whisperstar, Dovestar and Froststar, she hissed at the last name. Deciding that she would see Smokeyeyes later she bounced over to where the RainClan deputy Moonheart was sitting glaring at Froststar. "Cheer up!" she whispered in his ear.

[~Snowstar~]

Snowstar sighed. Her we go, she thought to herself. Then, after dipping her dead in the direction of Dovestar and smiling, she made her way towards the High Rock. "Evening," she mewed to her fellow leaders. Her voice did not wobble to give her away her few missgivings, and she held her head high, meeting Frostar's cold eyes.

__________________________________________________________________________


"Mm..." Tweedcoat half lay down on the brown earth and her tone was thoughtful. "I would tend to agree. Just look at her. So sly..."

__________________________________________________________________________


"Yeah," Smokeyeyes approached the two warriors from behind, "It surely can't be that bad. Froststar cannot destroy us in one night..." She breathed deeply. Those words held absolutely no comfort at all and she found herself blushing.

[Whisperstar]

Wow, I think I'm the only one with one character >< Or do I have another one? I dont't think I do.. not right now anyway... I will have to make one)

Whisperstar felt agitated. But sitting on the great rock, poised and looking relaxed, no one could have guesed. The most surprising of all though, was that she was frightened. No fear scent emitted from her, and her eyes betrayed nothing of her intentions. Moonheart had better not kill her after this meeting. She wrapped her tail around her paws and waited for the other to begin, not even greeting them properly.
She wanted things over with. The thought made her hackles raise but she quickly smoothed herself back out. Relaxed. She needed to be relaxed.

[Froststar]

Moonheart groaned, not that cat again and her friend with the smokey eyes! He turned around to meet Goldenfur and calmly said "Look Goldenfur I have responsibilities at this Gathering that you could never understand. So just leave me alone." He turned and walked away to where Crowpelt was sitting alone thinking finally a decent warrior who can think!. Moonheart sat down next to the pretty black and white queen and asked "So what's happening in SnowClan?"

[Blazingstar]

_{Crowpelt looked as if she was brought back to earth. "Oh...nothing out of the ordinary..." She uncurled her tail from her paws. "What's going on with Rainclan? I hope you guys are doing good." Optimistic and happy as always. A small smile curled on her black maw.}
