Gathering VII

[*~Blazeheart~*]

"Her? In our Clan? But she's a loner!"Padpaw protested, looking Splash over with wide, indignant eyes. Once again, he was careless with his words.

"Oh, it's you,"Padpaw mewed with a flick of his tail when the Moonclan tom appeared. The scruffy black tom's eyes narrowed in effort to remember the tom's name, which he didn't have a knack for.
I'm pretty sure it starts with an "R"....or maybe a "S"?"

Canyonpaw excused himself from the group of apprentices and padded around, looking for new cats to meet and make friends. It was something he enjoyed doing, since he had such an open personality. He spotted two she-cat and quickly joined them.
"Hi!"he greeted Mysticpaw and Lasspaw with a hearty grin.

[Sublimeluver]

Mysticpaw forced a bright smile. "Hi." she meowed with a sort of sad but forced happy tone to her voice. "How have you been?" she asked politely

[sierz]

Splash looked down at the apprentice in amusement, thinking she could be a threat to their clan. "Don't worry, I can't fight to save my life. But I do need to talk to Revolutionstar, about the Cheetah cat I keep seeing in my dreams, and the words Starclan keep whispering to me." The loner mewed, her voice trailing off. The black and whiyte looked at her paws, hoping these two young cats would take her wherever the leader was right now. "Please, it's urgent!" Splash pleaded, her eyes full with worry.

[◦ʜʇʎɯ]

"Come on Padpaw, stop being a misery guts. We can't really tell if she's had dreams of StarClan, but, really, not many loners know our medicine cat's prefix is Cheetah, unless she really did meet her in her dreams." said Mythpaw, as Rainpaw appeared. "Oh, hullo." she meowed, turning back to Splash. "We'll take you to Revolutionstar right now if it's that urgent." the femme meowed, turning back to the trees and into the gathering. She took a deep breath, gulped, then called out. "Revolutionstar! We've got someone to see you. She says it's urgent." her little voice trailed away as cats turned to stare and mutter at her.

[Sublimeluver]

Revolutionstar gazed at them. "Can it wait a few moments? THe gathering is almost over...and i'd prefer to speak to this she-cat alone if possible." he meowed. He wasn't annoyed he was calm and patient.

[Swiftpelt]

Rainpaw eyed Mythpaw as the she-cat padded back to the gathering, blicking for a moment before shaking his head and lashed his tail./I should have known. Say somthing to s she-cat and they just act like they don't care./ The light brown tom thought, glancing over at Padpaw before padded up the path to the gathering. "Bluepaw...." Rainpaw whispered to himself, longing to see Bluepaw again and sighed. Sure, he had Canyonpaw as his friend but, nothing ever made him more happier then Bluepaw herself.

Sitting away from the rest of the Clans, the light brown tom looked into the night sky and wondered if his mother was watching him. As always, for some odd reason, he smiled.

[Sublimeluver]

Revolutionstar gazed at the newcomer. "Perhaps it would actually be best if we talked privately at my camp. My home is open to you. You look like you could use a nice meal and a safe place to sleep." he meowed kindly.

[*~Blazeheart~*]

"You mean Cheetahstep?"Padpaw meowed to the loner with head tilted. What did this loner want with the medicine cat. Usually cats looked for Padpaw because he caused some mischief that was at their disadvantage. But the scruffy black tom doubted that Cheetahstep had pulled a prank against Splash.
"Told you Revolutionstar doesn't want to talk to you, cause you're a loner,"Padpaw responded to Revolutionstar's request, letting out a careless yawn.

"That's not nice Padpaw,"Blazeheart scolded in a warning growl. Her attention was caught by the newcomer and came over to greet her.
"You want to talk to Revolutionstar right?"she meowed, politely nodding her head to Splash.
"Well, like he said, you'll have to wait. But you can stay with me until the Gathering is over and we can go back to camp,"the ginger she-cat offered.

[Sublimeluver]

Revolutionstar narrowed his eyes at Padpaw. "We'll talk about your punishment later, Padpaw." he meowed sternly.He smiled at Splash comfortingly. "I can assure you that no harm will come to you as long as your with us." he promised

[sierz]

Splash gave a nod of respect to Revolutionstar, happiness shining in her eyes. "Thank you." she meed, and heard the black scruffy tom mewed something aqbout a cat named Cheetahstep. Cheetahstep, the name instantly fit, and the loner made the connection of the two cats being the same. But she never heard the name before. It was bizarre.

Splash perked her ears as another cat was talking to her. She turned around and mewed a greeting. "Thank you, I'm kind of nervous with so many cats around. Are they all from Fireclan? The scents are so different though!" Splash observed, looking around with curiousity.

[*~Blazeheart~*]

"Again!?"Padpaw whined with an indignant glare at Revolutionstar.
"But I'm not even done with my last punishment!"he complained. And I can still smell the mouse bile from this afternoon,"he grumbled to himself, wrinkling his nose.

"No, this is a Gathering. So all four Clans gather hear to talk about news in their Clan,"Blazeheart explained to Splash, her tail sweeping the clearing.

[Swiftpelt]

Swiftpelt padded into the gathering, fussing to himself that he was late to get here and flicked his ears back in annoyence. His tan pelt waved in the breeze as he padded up to his clan, the tip of his long black tail twitching and stopped when he saw a she-cat he had never seen before. /What's a loner doing here?/ The tan and black tom thought, his icy blue eyes blicked for a moment before shaking his head.

"FireClan...heh." Swiftpelt meowed low, almost with a laugh and padded on to his group with a wave of his tail. Once near, he sat with tail wrapping around his paws and waited for the leaders to speak.

[stormy]

looking away from him, she took a breath and laughed a little bit. this was sufficiently awkward, she thought to herself. how could she make this less uncomfortable. for some reason, petalwhisper was becoming quite fond of this, smart not bone-headed tom. bizarre she concluded before she flicked her ears, sternly turning that thought away. she was not going to think of that. she needed to pay attention to the gathering and to dragontail. she was probably creeping him out with her constant self distracting. also, considering he had talked and it would more or less appear to any other cat that didn't know her well enough to know she randomly flocked off into her own head. she must look like a snob. "i have been known to once in a while." petalwhisper answered in a matter-of-fact tone.

[Sublimeluver]

Revolutionstar gazed at Padpaw. He reminded him of himself when he was younger. "Padpaw, we will talk about it when we get home." he meowed gently. He returned his gaze to Splash, and gave her a comforting smile. He gazed at the leaders. "Is it agreed that this gathering is over?" he asked calmly.
