Ah Silentstream had asked something but he wasn't about to answer. "You'll see soon enough.." He mewed quickly dismissing her with a flick of his tail. It wasn't harsh, but rather mysterious, his voice low so that only his clan-mate could hear. And then came the arrival of Zephyrclan. Ah the moment was so close, and it only made excitement course through his veins. He was ready for this. He was calm about it. How could he not be? He was a Tempestclan cat and there was really nothing to fret about. Hearing the words of the Zephyrclan leader he waited for Vividstar to speak before he himself did. "Wreathedstar." He greeted the tom with a quick dip of his head, in respect. He would have to act somewhat nice at this gathering. He couldn't go parading around like some rabid dog. "Tempestclan is well. How is Zephyrclan? I've heard you've had quite the new additions."

ooc;// Cedar, your sig stretches out the page to an ungodly extent... Grebewing
// And we're standing one and all fighting till we FALL // She cleared her throat pointed when she saw Perilstar and Vividstar together, muttering "Don't get mouse-brained, girl" under her breath. The massive tortoiseshell walked past the two leaders, eyeballing Perilstar with a disdainful glare before turning her crown and heading forward to greet cats from other Clans. Grebewing smiled and waved her paws around, but to be honest, she just wanted to go back home and nap. Gatherings were boring, unlike the apprentices' claims that they were fun. |

Falconpaw purred "Nice to meet you, Rabbitpaw," meowed the tom quietly. "Do you seen to have any idea of what is going on here?" asked the tom. "Vividstar brought the whole clan to the gathering," he huffed, sitting down and curling his tail along his oval paws.
Tealtide smiled sheepishly. "Training? It's going well. I'd like to think. I have a lot more to teach Fawnpaw, though," purred the tom.
Silentstream heard what Perilstar had muttered to her, and so she quietly retreated to a silent area. Maybe no one had seen her. She didn't need to be bothered, she just wanted a few small seconds of peace and quiet.
Dewstream padded into the clearing, his eyes narrowed. How dare two of his kits be taken away from him. It was all a dream, maybe. His claws dug into the soft earth underneath, and he glowered unhappily at the ground.

AQUASPLASH
Aquasplash smiled slightly at Brittlenimbus. She knew it was probably an accident that he ran off,or he had something else to do but she was happy that he had apologised. It took a big cat to do that. She purred slightly.
"Its fine, Brittlenimbus," She replied happily, "Thank you for apologising,"

Rabbitpaw tilted his head with glee. Apparently CelestialClan really had no idea what was going on! Or did they? He frowned slightly as he remembered what his mentor had once said; cats sometimes would talk nonsense at Gatherings just go get information about the other clans. What if Falconpaw did have a clue as the the clans joining? He had to be careful here.
Shrugging ever so slightly, he meowed, "No, I honestly don't. I was actually wondering if your entire clan was here; there were alot of you coming in." He said, almost convincing himself that this was the truth. As another apprentice approached, the tom impatiently kneaded the ground. He wanted to cut the chatter; there were more important things to do. Yet, he had to admit, it was slightly fun. "Nice to meet you Mintypaw. I'm Rabbitpaw."' He stated, staring at the she-cat with a curious gaze.
Brittlenimbus started as Aquasplash responded to him. He had been thinking about how much fun it would be to be hunting right now. All that glorious prey and the wonderful scents swirling around him, filling him with the ancient wonder of the ancestors. How...Wait.
Shaking his head as he exited his daydream, he smiled somewhat oddly at the medicine cat's response. "I'm glad; I didn't want anyone to be mad at me. It never seems to turn out too well. Anyway, I got distracted. But by what I can't exactly remember....." He said, trailing off as he tried to remember. It wasn't easy for him.

The large tom with a slightly amber tinge to his pelt entered the clearing, a while after the rest of his clan. He had been keeping his own pace along the way, this was in order to think his cunning plan through. He slipped in and brushed around the outskirts of the clearing before padding into the middle. Peril stars 'love' for Vividstar could only last so long, he was bound to get fed up with her soon enough, so that was where he came in.....and all the power hungry toms lived happily ever after. The end. He would tell his plot to nobody, it was his little secret. If you trusted others too easily your cover could be blown in seconds. He flicked his gaze up so he could get a good look at those in the clearing, all of Celestialclan, that was expected. His eyes darted from cat to cat, but he could not find anyone of interest, apart from a lone Zephyrclan she-cat, that was no good. Moving into a sitting position, the regal tom wrapped his tail around his paws with a flick and observed the others carefully.

Utterly sick and tired of the rasping sensation of long, dew-soaked grass slithering over her pads with every step, Lynxstar gave a silent sigh of relief with the rough feeling of stone grating against her thick paw-flesh, and gradually, that icy touch of snow along in the mix, but it was just another feeling she was used to. In fact, the she-cat loved the glacier, the cavern, and the area beneath the lake used to touch noses with StarClan, it was unfortunate that the area was so far from VertigoClan, and that in order to get to it, one must cover a vast expanse of ZephyrClan land. And though ZephyrClan and VertigoClan had almost always had peace, Lynxstar didn't want to shake that strong hold of friendship now, with a simple yearning for something she already had. But finally, her frayed nerves pulled themselves together with the darkened entrance to the gathering cavern, and a friendly smile flickered across her face, for practice perhaps. Gathering a deep breath, the massive tawny she-cat let her lungs collapse slightly with her exhale. Another gathering, pray StarClan would end it quickly and peacefully. Lowering her large head a notch, the bulky she-cat cut her way through the crowd, leaving her own warriors to spread into the mix of clan cats... not an even mix. Giving a frown to no one in particular, she noted the excessive amount of CelestialClan cats. What was Vividstar doing? Shivering as a million possiblities danced through her head, Lynxstar moved on, trying to push the thoughts away, and welcomed the smile that reappeared upon her features. Wreathedmoon? Larkstar.. Biting her lip sharply to keep it from quivering, she felt a hot rush of blood tumble into her mouth. Politely, she turned and hid her face to spit it out, and raised a large forepaw to wipe away the remaining blood, looking up to try and catch Wreathedstar's indigo-blue eyes with no success. He seemed well enough, StarClan could only understand what it was like when Cometstar passed and left her to deal with VertigoClan, falling apart at the time. Still, Wreathedstar was probably mentally stronger than she was before she built up this protective wall. Shaking out her pelt as if ridding it of the memories, the big she-cat clambered up the steep cliff to the other three leaders and stood silently. Larkstar was dead. Vividstar was doing something ridiculous, and the smug, mysterious expression that played across Perilstar's handsome face told her that he, too, was up to no good. Blinking, she turned her head away from them, and gazed sullenly into the crowd of socializing cats. |

Perilstar would probably want to go last to share the news of their now merging clans, and she did not have a lot of news to tell, they could share their news together. Clearing her throat sweetly she looked at Wreathedstar then at Lynxstar. "Would one of you like to start the gathering then?" She meowed softly. She felt so out of place here, she no longer felt like a leader, she felt like some sort of rag representing Celestialclan. Nothing like Ghostar would have felt. Here Ghoststar would have felt proud and strong, like a true leader should, she would not have had any reason to feel intimidated by Wreathedstar, Lynxstar or Perilstar because she would hold the respect of them all, and in turn she would respect them. She had been a brilliant leader, it must have been some sort of joke that she had chosen Vividgrace as her deputy, Ghoststar would not have wanted this. Just the same as Ghoststar should not be dead now. For a moment she thought she saw the tall sleek silver she-cat in the clearing before her, but as she squinted her eyes she only saw the reflection the stars left. She gulped nervously as her gaze dropped to the ground. She did not fit in here.

The lean she-cat meandered through the cats not quite sure where to place herself. She had seen Vividstar and Perilstar talking, maybe a Tempestclan cat knew something about this? This odd thing happening. Their leaders seemed close, whispering voices, and Vividstar had brought the whole clan. One of Perilstar's cats surely had to. Trying to find a Temepstclan cat not engaged in conversation she found herself beside a handsome tom. A golden colored coat, such a handsome tom. Though he was one of them and that was somewhere she would never find herself. Placing her slender body beside his she wrapped her tail around her paws just. And then Lynxstar entered and she knew they would be starting shortly. "Do you know what's happening?" She hissed slightly. It wasn't hostile, more or less a quick string of words she wanted an answer to before one of the leaders spoke.
-----------
The arrival of Lynxstar signified they would start soon. Ah the time was almost here. He couldn't believe just how soon this was happening. It seemed so long ago that the plan had begun to shape itself in his head. And then he waited, finally being able to put it into action. Vividstar was going to fall easily and he knew that from the moment he saw her. From the moment he had talked to her on their borders. Of course then the easy part was to get her to fall for him. After all he was the leader of Tempestclan, the cunning. He couldn't believe just how easily it had happened though. Now they were at the gathering. The gathering everything was happening at. Ah yes, let the fun begin. Hearing Vividstar speak beside him he looked at the other leaders. Wondering which would want to go first. He of course would be sharing third, almost last....for his and Vividstar's words might as well go together. He knew the she-cat couldn't do it by herself.

AQUASPLASHAquasplash purred once mor at Brittlenimbus, "Its fine," She said, "Everyone gets distracted at some time."
Speaking of distraction, Lynxstar had arrived. Finally! She wasn't mad at the leader, but she was happy that the gathering was to start. Then maybe she could find out what was going on with Perilstar and Vividstar. She turned as she heard another voice. (This reaction is sooooo late)
"Hello, Taintedleaf," She said, "But Im not Aquapaw anymore, Im Aquasplash!"______________________ rowanleafRowanleaf padded to the gathering behind his leader, exited to see the other clans again. His first gathering as a warrior! He liked listening to the other clans speak of what happened in their clans, it was interesting. And then he got to meet others from them. That was great.

Brittlenimus visibly brightened as Aquasplash forgave him. That was nice of her! Then, as another cat approached, he parted his jaws to take in the tom's scent. ZepherClan. Well, his clan had no quarrel with them as far as he knew. All would be well tonight; none of the clans seemed to be fighting, in fact. All seemed peaceful, for now. "Hello Taintedleaf. I'm Brittlenimbus." He meowed, dipping his head deeply to the medicine cat. For a moment he felt a prickle of discomfort; he was the only warrior in this section. But, he drove the feeling away. There wasn't any reason he couldn't talk to the medicine cats.
There was a pattering of pawsteps as another cat slid into the Gathering a few heartbeats after the rest of her clan. Her silver and white fur gleamed as she took in a few deep breaths. She had run faster than usual to catch up; She didn't want to miss the Gathering. The medicine cat padded forward, the cool stone a welcome feeling after the tall and sticky grass. Green eyes gazed around, soon catching sight of two of the medicine cats from ther clans. A smile spread across her maw as she headed toward them. "Hello Taintedleaf, Aquasplash, Brittlenimbus." She meowed, dipping her head to each. For some reason, Stormwind seemed distracted. But that was only because of Darkfog. Why had he done that horrible act? The memory preyed on her mind like a warrior would prey on a mouse. She couldn't get it out of her head.

All at once he could scent a Celestialclan she-cat beside him and his nose scrunched up slightly. He would have to get used to this scent, or would they have a new scent once their clans merged? Somewhere between the bitter sweet Tempestclan scent and the Celestialclan scent which was more like water and sweet fresh air. "Of course I know what is going on." He hissed softly back. He had no interest in whoever it was, because earlier when he had looked at the Celestialclan cats, none of them had happened to stand out. He was intently watching the leaders to see how they were reacting to one another, till he heard a noise the caused his head to snap up and swing round. IT turned out the noise was simply nothing of interest, but when he caught sight of the she-cat he had spoken too he regretted using that tone. Wow. It took him a moment before he gathered himself then dipped his head to the she-cat. "Forgive me, but I would like to keep both ears intact on my head." He meowed and tilted his head towards Perilstar, but kept his eyes on the she-cat. She was so beautiful, especially in this light. How had he never seen he before?

Silver and Black striped paws padded quietly behind the rest of his Clanmates. He was tired, and he realized her should have gotten some sleep like the others had, but he hadn't been sleeping well. Nightmares tore through his head during the night, about nothing he could remember. Absolutely nothing, not one thing. They woke him up all the time, but as he opened his eyes, the thoughts of the terrors that haunted him night after night were all gone, wiped out of his mind. He sighed, and closed his eyes, continuing on dependent on scent alone. Lithe bodice moved carefully around others, looking for someone he knew, but he wasn't friends with anyone other than Lynxstar. No one was right for him, he found something wrong with every cat. He had yet to find a perfect cat. No, but he needed to stop thinking about it. No cat was perfect, so why look for one? The tom continued on, a sour look over his face, but no one seemed to notice, so he just continued on, eyes closed, hoping not to bump into anyone. Maybe no one would approach him or speak to him. If so, he was already think of what to say. 'Go away, I don't want to talk,' was out of the question because the tom wanted friends, he just had a hard time making them. He sighed, and sat down, opening his eyes, and smirked at all of the different cats chatting. The CelestialClan scent seemed much stronger than all of the others, though. He didn't think much more of it though.

Taintedleaf's eyes grew wide as Aquapaw explained she was Aquasplash. "Congratulations, though I'm sorry to hear about Deergrace of course." he murmmered sympathetically. He watched and smiled at the cats that crowded around the area where normally only medicine cats sat. Rabbitpaw, Mintypaw and Brittlenimbus. This was a slight bit awkward. "Hello, how's the prey running?" he asked each one as the ycame to sit beside him and Aquasplash. His eyes brightened ass Stormwind arrived. "Greetings." he purred in a deep voice. "Just how might things e with your Clan?" he asked.
>>>>>>>>>>
Swiftstep nodded as Tealtide responded. She wondered if she would ever get an apprentice. She wanted to have one so badly. It would almost be like having a kit, in a way of course. Oh she longed for kits too, to play with and snggel and feed. She ust had to find the right tom. She had flirted with a number in her Clan, and on occassion at gatherings with other clan toms too. But none seemed right. It was only when Tealtide came along that shefelt something inside that was, well different then what she felt with other toms. She shot a glace over at the long-furred to. She hardly knew if he would ever like her. "Yes--I well, that is to say I would like to have an apprentice soon." she spoke, mixing up her words.
>>>>>>>>>>
Lavenderpaw jumped into the clearing right behind the other VertigoClan cats. Her lavender colored eyes alight at what awaited her. So many cats! Quickly she looked around for apprentices from other Clans. Now would be a great time to see how their training got on. She spotted s few apprentices with the medicine cats over in their corner. Trotting over she dipped her head in respect and greeting. "Well hello there! My name is Lavenderpaw, what's yours?".

OOC: I wasn't saying they were in the same corner, but okay. XDD
Bic: Rabbitpaw shuffled his paws yet again as another apprentice arrived. This time, she was from VertigoClan. VertigoClan, the last to arrive. I know they have to come a long way, but it shouldn't take a ton of time. They just seem to waste time as if it means nothing. The apprentice thought with a flash of irritation. Instead of voicing this comment as the tom usually would, he just dipped his sharp muzzle in greeting. "I'm Rabbitpaw. Nice to meet you." He meowed politely.
Brittlenimbus shifted his weight akwardly. This was not an easy situation for him. Clearing his throat, he smiled yet again. "Going well, in my case. In yours?" He responded, his answer quite vague.
Stormwind turned her head to look back at Taintedleaf with a distracted air. The she-cat truly was bothered by the day's events. She knew the tom shouldn't have done that; it wasn't right in any sense. How could he leave behind Abyssbird and possibly Serenewinter? How could he even think about this action? Blinking hard, she gave her head a small shake. The best thing to do now was forget about it; the Gathering was usually so eventful it was enough to drive any thought out of a cat's head. "Hmm? Oh, quite well. We've had lots of new kits recently; many of them promise to be good apprentices. How about your clan?" She asked, purring slightly.
