OOC: Right, thanks.
BIC: **Rowanstar bounded after the snowy cat, overtaking her to reach the top first. Padding forward, head held high, she viewed the cats below, awed, as she always was, by the sight. Four clans--RiverClan, wise and persevering; ShadowClan, dark and mysterious; ThunderClan, strong and mighty; and her own WindClan, firm and alone. They all seemed to meld together into one cat, one Clan, united on this one night by the spirits in the SilverPelt above her. As their shimmering light bounced off of her own mottled fur, turning it silver, Rowanstar opened her mouth to speak.** Cats of the Forest, WindClan is doing good. Prey is running as well as ever, and, as Newleaf approaches, we can only expect it to get better. We scented rogues near the edge of our territory, but the scent was stale, and I see no threat from them. As you have probably noticed, we have several new apprentices, who are training well. I know they will become warriors this Clan can be proud of. **Gazing at the cats below, the tortoiseshell nodded and stepped back to let the next leader speak.**

*Squirrelpaw flashes her friends a slight smile, and then stows it away as Rowanstar begins to speak. Her ears swivel as she catches what the WindClan leader is saying. The ginger she cat looks at the many cats around her, their eyes never leaving the Great Rock. Squirrelpaw patiently wraps her long tail around her small and slight paws.*
*Stickpaw nods as he watches the snow white she cat.* Yeah, I have to say, we're fortunate that we have such a great leader like Snowstar. *The light of the moon reflects on his blue eyes as he turns his gaze at Rowanstar.*

**Torquepaw notes the arrival of Fallenclaw.** She's here!

*Stickpaw's ears perk up as he watches the form of his mentor appear. He cocks his head to the side, wondering if the ShadowClan deputy would join the others beneath Great Rock.*

*Dewpaw smiles gratefully at Goldenpaw.* I'm ok, don't worry. It's just my eye that's been acting up again. *Her whiskers twitch as she tries to focus, but gives up and watches though her right one instead.* I wonder what the other leaders will have to say?
*Whisperfur watches Goldenpaw, thankful for her friend's support. She twitches her tail, impatient for the Gathering to begin.*

**The dark she-cat weaved through the small crowd of cats till she reached the front row. Her silky brown coat rippled over her lithe body and reflected a dim glow of moonlight. She rested on the cool earth and flicked her tail, well aware that some of the other, younger cats were noting her presence with mixed opinions. She gazed fixedly up at Rowanstar and listened intently, her ears twitching at the occassional snicker that ran through the crowd. Rowanstar might see us as one clan up on that high rock.. But I fear that we, so long as we keep this attitude of secrecy and judgment, shall never be as a whole.

*Goldenpaw nods, laying down comfortably next to Dewpaw, licking the fellow apprentice's shoulder.* I'm sorry about that, but try to relax. *She says with a purr.*

**Lionpaw nods sheepishly.** I know, Torpaw. I just...oh, never mind. **She listens with her friend as Rowanstar gives her news.**
**Dawnpaw has moved away from the ThunderClan apprentices and is listening attentively to Rowanstar. At the mention of "new apprentices", she straightens her back with pride. Someday, I'll come to a gathering and be a warrior! The thought makes her quiver with joy, and she listens to the other leaders' reports.**

*Like Dawnpaw, at the sound of Rowanstar's voice, Goldenpaw hushes, listening. She smiles, her eyes glowing to express her own pride. She also felt great honor that she was of RiverClan heritance. Such an honor she got to experience!*

**Dawnpaw looks over at the RiverClan apprentice. Maybe Gatherings weren't so bad after all. This apprentice was watching the leaders, so Dawnpaw didn't try to break her concentration.**

**Spotchpaw sits down after hearing Rowanstar speak her part, and waits for the next leader.**
**The greyish yellow apprentice was fixing to say somehing, but hushed and looked toward Rowanstar as she spoke her piece.**

I'll be ok, don't worry! *Dewpaw mews back and listened carefully to the leader, a quiet curiosity at what her own leader would have to say.*

** Snowstar steps up next. Her white pelt shines in the moonlight; her long tail flicks back and forth, and in her eyes reflect the stars.** My dear fellow Clan cats, it is my pleasure to report that ShadowClan is doing better then expected. Newleaf has come and prey is bountiful. We also have several new apprentices, and a medicine cat, Stickpaw, who will be promoted after the Gathering. Training is going well, and soon they will be warriors that will serve their Clan with pride.** The ShadowClan leader steps down, looking to Icestar and Skystar for them to say their reports.**

**Torquepaw swells with pride at the mention of the new apprentices.** I'll be a great warrior some day.
**Spotchpaw turns around until she finds her leader. She hopes he'll be the next to say what her about RiverClan.** Who do yah think will be next?

**Lilacpaw shifted as she listened to the Leaders. The curious cat flicked her tail, twitching an ear and muttering.** Hm, medicine cat? Warriors? **She blinked... she thought she was beginning to understand Gatherings.**
