April's Gathering 2016

Oceanpaw's eyes widened. She knew there was some danger in the forest. If there was, the clans should work together, not attacking each other. Rivalry and battle creates a line, and that line doesn't just separate the clans, but it binds them as well. RiverClan, SkyClan, ThunderClan, ShadowClan, and WindClan are like one clan. They have rivals, allies, and some light in them that some choose to lock away. In a way, they are all alike.

She looked around at the hissing ThunderClan cats. Fishstar wasn't wrong, it was fine to let the others know about new territory for RiverClan and SkyClan. She looked at Dreamleaf and saw that she felt almost the same way.



Snowstorm looked up at Fishstar. She yowled with agreement. She saw the "Fox-hearts" "Squirrel-chasers" "Fish-faces" threats in the ThunderClan cats. 'Yes, you guys slash my eye, mock us, bathe in pride and arrogance, and leave us in the dust even when we have no camp ourselves. So yes, we're the fox-hearts. she longed to say to ThunderClan, but thought better.

Thinstripe purred at what Fishstar had said "Of course such a leader would bring something like that up" she murmured, why should she care what they thought? ThunderClan was still strong.

Mintpaw and Silverpaw glanced at each other in horror, since it was their first Gathering and this was the first that they had heard of RiverClan's takeover of ThunderClan territory.

Robinpaw felt pride as Fishstar spoke of the victory.

Lightningpaw sneered at the upset ThunderClan cats. "They got that upset? She didn't even put more than a mouse's whisker of detail into her report. What a bunch of kits.."

As soon as the gathering started, Nightpaw returned to the ShadowClan cats. The apprentice took a seat next to her mother and watched with excitement. She was sure that Thrushstar was going to mention her! She was a new apprentice after all. The young cat was disappointed to find that Thrushstar did not mention her. Only that there were new apprentices. The other clans mentioned their's. Tail dropping, the young cat shifted her paws as the leaders continued to talk. Soon, the leaders threw harsh words back and forth. Nightpaw couldn't help but glance for the moon. She had never known Starclan. Would they come back any time soon? What was life like with StarClan?

"Thrushstar doesn't say much, does he, Dawnflower?"Nightpaw asked her mother, giving her leader a glance. He certainly wasn't part of the argument. It seemed a lot of the attention did not center around ShadowClan. Which she assumed was a good thing. As long as they weren't being driven from their home like ThunderClan. Why would they drive another clan out of their home? Why would they do such a thing?
