"Well, there are frogs about every where. But, the swamps are protruding a horrible oder." Stormcloud meowed back. The only bit of emotion came from his eyes. The way unnoticed to most cats.
His amber gaze holding a loving tint inside. Only holding true to the one black she-cat. The only one his heart would ever love.

(ooc: Blah! Typo... what was the name of the former deputy again? Mirage has forgotten and spazzed. She shall fix it when she remembers.)
Lightstar's gaze distracted and rested on Tinyfang for a moment, trying to give her a reassuring look. Then his focus returned to the leader's discussion, though that was only part of it. His white pelt was slightly fluffed against the chill of night, and his gaze wandered up to the moon.
'It's quite soothing actually....' The tom cast a meaningful glance to the other leaders, it was almost time for them to call the Gathering to begin. Although, it seemed as if many cats were still just settling in. Tail curling around his paws, not nervously, but rather in anticipation. He could have counted the number of heart beats he waited until the meeting would begin.
Of course, being sensible here, he did not actually attempt to count the seconds that flew by. He let his mind drift off in the short time, and multitasked into registering the words floating around him. |

((OOC: There never was a deputy....I think))
"Ew, frogs? What do they taste like?" Nightsky mewed in a fake disgusted tone.
Frogs did seem like they would taste gross, but Nightsky was just trying to act normal. She didn't want it to be obvious that they've talked for a long time before. Nightsky's tail wrapped around her paws, keeping herself warm. Nightsky knew she had to tell Stormcloud, and she had to tell him here and now. She would not be able to leave tonight unless he knew...

Dawnpaw walked away from the grope of leaders and headed for for a grope of Thunderclan cats. She stopped and looked for a spot to sit. She stood standing, she needed to get back to Creamtail before her mentor went crazy looking for her. "Hi, hows Thunderclan?" she asked the cats.

Ghostwind was still a bit out of his mind feeling happiness now and then. But that didn't mean that Nightsky was going to get away with anything. Or maybe she would... had she even come to the Gathering? Ghostwind shook his head clearing the thought from it. What was wrong with him? He couldn't remember much, actually felt happy now and then, and he couldn't concentrate. He would have to pull it together. He resumed his search for Nightsky and his mind which kept wandering like a lost rabbit.
********************
Silverstar decided that she should bring the Gathering to order. "Gather around for the Gathering has begun!" she yowled to the farthest reaches of the clearing. "Crowstar would you like to start?" she asked cooly.
*****************
Hawkshadow was looking for Stormcloud. He hadn't talked to his friend for a long time. But the leaders were beginning the Gathering so it would have to wait. He listened attentively as he wished to know whether the other clans had had as much excitement as Shadowclan did.

Milkpoppy walked over to a grope of Shadowclan warriors and sat down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dawnpaw walk over to her mentor and sat down. She was looking forward to the gathering. "What do you think Riverclan is going to say?" she asked Sunpaw.

"Pretty good, actually." Stormcloud whispered to Nightsky. He turned around and sat down, keeping about a whisker away from the black she-cat. On the outside, it looked as if all attention was on the four leaders on the great rock. But, on the inside, he kept his thought on Nightsky.
~~~~~
Mosseyes's attention turned to the four leaders as Silverstorm's yowl started the Gathering. She wondered what Crowstar would have to say about their battle with the rogue group of cats. Or any other news in ShadowClan.

Summerpaw was patiently waiting for a cat to walk up to her and start talking to her. Summerpaw didn't think she was boring. Was she?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lightfoot padded behind Lightstar into the clearing. She scanned the area. She didn't really have that much to brag about. She wondered if the other Cats would start to jeer at Jadeflower for her kittypet origins. She saw the two famous ShadowClan cats, Starpool and Skysong, talking about the Dead Plain raid. The black one, who was said to be Starpool, looked like she was close to kitting. It was highly unusual for a queen to come to a Gathering. But then again....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Skysong felt like she had the right to brag about her and Starpool's actions during the raid on Shadowclan.
"I grabbed that Cinder cat by the throat. Then, when she was drowning in her own blood, gasping for breath, we saw Blood grab the kit we now call Fogkit. He was going to kill her, that we knew. I grabbed Blood and Starpool ran with the kit. Now, Fogkit is alive and kicking." she said, her icy eyes gleaming.

Crowstar nodded towards Silverstar. "Since the battle, we lost nine clanmates to the cats of the Dead Plains. I lost a few lives, and lost my mate. But we now have eight new kits within our clan!" Crowstar smiled. "Unfortunately, we had an intruder we had to deal with. Their clan will know who they are due to their absence." Crowstar said. "And my deputy, Silentstripe, has gone missing. Patrols are on the look out for him, and if you find him, please let my clan know, he is our loyal deputy, and we need him back." Crowstar said, then nodded towards Silverstar.

"I shall go next unless anyone else wants to." Silverstar said, then seeing no objection nodded then started, "Dovestar as you might have realized by now, is dead. A lightning bolt struck her and took all nine of her lives at once. She was a noble leader and will be loved and missed by all in the forest. She hunts in Starclan now. Also adders have been busy and have killed one of our Queens, Hawkstorm. Her spirit is also now in Starclan. As you can see, I am now leader and have already received my nine lives. I will choose the deputy by the end of the night. Thunderclan has no more to report." she finished.

"who knows"Sunpaw said, "Do you know?"She asked Creamtail, "I think all he's going to talk about is the things that happened in the past moon"

"Okay, Lightstar might talk about about Tinyfang and Creamtail." she whispered to Sunpaw. Dawnpaw looked at the leaders, who was going next? she thought. She turned around to the other Medicine cats and there apprentices. She walked over to Swanpaw and Silverpaw. She sat down next to Swanpaw. "How are your clans doing?" she asked.

Lightstar observed the other two cats. There was not any major tension flaring among the leaders at the moment, as they all crowded a top the Great Rock he could see that the Clans were working together well in this period against the rogues. He didn't see any reason to doubt his own announcements, and after Silverstar's meowing came to a close he took his time in following her.
The tom's gaze held each cat in place, sweeping the full crowd at least one full time. 'I feel like the master of ceramonies... haha...' He glanced at Amberstar to see if she would interupt him, and quickly determining that it was time for his words to echo through the clearing, his voice began.
"Well, I would like to start off by introducing a new deputy for RiverClan, Tinyfang. While our death toll is down I'm sad to say that we are not having much luck keeping cats in the Clan..." the tom paused to lick his chest before continuing. "You probably knew Willowspring, she left for the Dead Plains and now calls herself Cinder. Snowstripe has also left for that accursed place. The worst part, our former Medicine Cat, Longfeather, disappeared completely."
The tom allowed his words to sink in and once again observed the many cats of Clans. He waved his tail for silence and continued his story once again. "Dawnpaw has yet to recieve her name so Creamtail, who has enough experience to take the position temporarily, is Dawnpaw's new mentor. This is all the information RiverClan can offer."

Leopardpaw went over to Summerpaw, she was waiting for someone to talk to her.
"Hey, do you want me to show you to other apprentices tonight?" He asked.

"Dawnpaw looked over to Tinyfang and Creamtail, the cats around them started to call, "Tinyfang! Creamtail!" she joined in. Then she looked over to Swanpaw and Silverpaw. "I knew it! Lightstar would say all those things, but he left out that Copperclaw died by Cinder." she whispered to the other Medicine cat apprentices.

Lilykit had travelled with Thunderclan to see the Fourtrees. She was surprised that Lightstar didn't mention her, but all the other apprentice's believed the kit was an apprentice. Her pink eyes always looked up at the leaders, now waiting for Amberstar to talk.
Brightheart was surprised. A lot of cats had left Riverclan. Willowspring, Snowstripe, and now Longfeather... She looked over to a Thunderclan apprentice, a young one at that, and she looked like she should have been with Riverclan. Maybe she had left too...

Nightsky leaned in next to Stormcloud's ear, ready to tell her secret. All of the cats had their attention focused on their leaders, she had picked the perfect time. Here ears were down as well as her tail, making her look small and almost invisible in the dim light of the moon. After Nightsky took a deep breathe, she knew it was time.
"Stormcloud...I'm pregnant..." Nightsky mewed so softly that only he could hear.
She slowly moved away from Stormcloud, staring into his stunning amber eyes. All she could really do was wait, which could seem like forever.

Ghostwind finally found Nightsky. His eyes gleamed in satisfaction at finding she was whispering in his ear. Oh she'd have to have a miracle in order to dodge trouble now. He crept and when he was close enough he asked accusingly, "What now? Are we telling clan secrets perhaps? Or something worse?" He snarled, "What are you up to?"

Nightsky looked at Ghostwind, trying to hide her horrified expression. She quickly thought of an explanation, thinking hard.
"I was just asking him how Clawear was doing. Clawear and I are good friends. I was whispering because I didn't want to interrupt the leaders or be rude to others." Nightsky mewed softly to Ghostwind.
She only hoped that worked, for Ghostwind seemed intent on ruining her life. If only he would just back off and mind his own business!!!

Stormcloud was speechless, only able to stare into Nightsky's eyes. He was overwhelmed with so many feelings. So many that his mind couldn't name half of them. Shock, excitement, joy, love. Those were the easy ones to detect.He was about to say something back, but before he could. A voice came out of no where.
"What now? Are we telling clan secrets perhaps? Or something worse? What are you up to?"
His head shot to the source of the menacing snarl. Who else could it have been, but Ghostwind.
"Ghostwind." he hissed to the WindClan tom. There were so many things he could of done at that moment. But, the thing he did was just stare at the vile tom.
It was a Gathering for StarClan's sake! Why did that malignant tom have to do this every moon?
