Gathering 1 (July 31st, HELD LATE)
Hiddenstar lead FlameClan to the Gathering place, the handsome black-and-silver tom refusing to reveal his nervousness. Leopardpaw bounced around, looking forward to meeting other apprentices (hint hint, Brams c:).  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:37, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Redriver from ScorchClan scanned the cats, looking for someone she knew. FIS H The Happy cat  01:42, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar led her own Clan to the Gathering place, her tail flicking nervously but her gaze calm. She didn't know anything about this 'other Clan'. Who were these FlameClan cats? When had they formed? She only knew of her own Clan's history.  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  01:43, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Scarletflame shifted uncomfortable, a bad feeling churning in her stomach. Hiddenstar greeted Willowstar in a soft rumble, not fully trusting this other leader yet.  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:44, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Silentwhisper held his gaze towards Willowstar, his ears flattened. He was now a part of FlameClan, and had to come to accept that ScorchClan was no longer his home. Flamespring sat beside Redriver, scanning the FlameClan cats closely. Redfur sat beside his mate, pressing against her soft, warm fur with happiness. Blood  doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  01:46, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar dipped her head in response, turning her brown gaze to the other leader. Of course, Sunsetflare volunteered to go. He wanted to see reactions to his pretty orange pelt. As he passed the FlameClan cats, Streamwing's eyes grew wide at the sight of him, not able to take her eyes off of him.  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  01:49, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Scarletflame's stomach churned once more, this time with fear, as she recognized the scent of Sunsetflare. Oh no...If our Clans see us together...But I can't just leave him out there all alone, he'll think I hate him, and I don't, I love him... Stormrage settled down beneath the rock with the other deputy.  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:50, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Whiteclaw let out a sigh, watching the ScorchClan cats with interest. Meanwhile, Featherpaw bounced happily, looking for any other apprentices around. ''Wow! My first gathering! '' Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  01:51, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Ravenpaw nervously shuffled his paws, tripping over his paws and causing his brother to laugh at him. Sunsetflare moved closer to Scarletflame. "Hey."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  01:54, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage continued to sit, like a (handsome :P) cat on display. He was getting bored already.- Scarletflame couldn't help but to purr. "Nice to see ya,"  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:56, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Featherpaw's tail swished excitedly, proud to be at her first gathering. Waiting for the gathering to begin, she let out a quiet yawn, her gaze shifting to Bluestream. Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  01:58, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar silently flicked her tail. "Shall we start?" Sunsetflare smiled. "Nice to see you too."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  01:59, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

The massive FlameClan leader flicked his tail. "No no, let's let them settle in first, after all, it is the very first Gathering." Scarletflame gently nuzzled his shoulder, making sure no-one saw. "I've missed you, even though I've seen you at night." Stormrage was getting even boreder.  Sil    ver    st    ar   02:00, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

"Alright." The ScorchClan leader gazed down at her own Clanmates, unaware of Sunsetflare and Scarletflame. The orange tom was purring and licking Scarletflame's shoulder with ease. "Is anything new with you and your Clan? Something that I should know about?"  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  02:04, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Smokepaw decided to talk to a pretty mink she-cat - from FlameClan - that he'd sptted hearby. "Hi," he mewed nervously as he padded up. -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  05:14, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Nightstripe sat on the ground, knowing Ashpaw would've loved this. ''But he's with StarClan. Falconheart's in his paws. I wonder how she's doing…'' He didn't know how his younger sister was or if she'd been treated. He gazed up at Willowstar, wondering when the Gathering would start.  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  13:47, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire turned to Scorchpaw. " Why don't you go meet some of the other apprentices?" she nudged the small she-cat's shoulder. She herself didn't know anyone in the other Clans, being a rogue. So it was logical to go talk to somebody. The ginger she-cat padded away from Scorchpaw and over th the bored looking FlameClan deputy. " First Gathering?" she asked him. FIS H The Happy cat  14:39, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar turned her head to look at Blazefire. "I'm pretty sure this is everyone's first Gathering...even my own..."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  14:49, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

(I don't think Blazefire is near Willowstar) since her daughter didn't answer, Redriver stepped forwards and dipped her head respectfully to Willowstar. " She doesn't know that, as we weren't born in the Clans." FIS H The Happy cat  14:58, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar flicked her tail. "I wasn't born with the Clans either, but by the looks of it, none of these cats have been to a Gathering."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  15:12, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Redriver shrugged elegantly. " Well, we have Gatherings now." She began to groom herself, not knowing anyone and not the slightest bit interested in meeting someone (Oh Reddy).-- Blazefire uneasily awaited Stormrage's reply. ''Is there like a code or something where you can't talk to deputies? '' FIS H The Happy cat  15:20, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage raised a brow as the molly spoke to him. She wasn't a deputy either, and smelled heavily of ScorchClan. "Hm...? Of course, this is the very first Gathering, after all." Leopardpaw turned as a cat spoke to her, a tom by the sound of it. Her gaze settled on him, the other apprentice's scent alien to her. "Oh hi! You must be of ScorchClan, huh? I'm Leopardpaw of the mighty FlameClan!"  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:31, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

(can cats raise eyebrows? xd). " Oh." Blazefire (was clueless) said, eyes widening in mild surprise. " What's your name? I'm Blazefire." FIS H The Happy cat  20:38, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

(It's basically a saying, he pretty much gave her a confused look) "I'm Stormrage. Nice to meet you, Blazefire." The dark-furred tabby responded in a gentle rumble, his tail wrapped around his paws, his broken leg sticking out oddly.  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:41, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

(Yeah, I think xD) Redfur, Featherpaw, and the other cats pateiently waited for the gathering to begin. Blossomstripe let out a soft sigh. ''Featherwhisp.. where in StarClan is she? Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  20:45, August 5, 2015 (UTC)''

Blazefire dippped her head in return. " Nice to meet you as well, Stormrage." As he shifted, she noticed his broken leg and (excuse me) ''raised an eyebrow. ''" That looks nasty. Pardon me, it's none of my buisness." FIS H The Happy cat  20:46, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage followed the molly's gaze, blinking his blue eyes calmly. "Oh, my leg? Yeah, it had a bad infection for a while that put me out. It's getting better, thankfully."  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:49, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire nodded a bit awkwardly, swishing her tail from side-to-side. She tilted her head to observe Willowstar and Hiddenstar. " I wonder when this is going to start...?" she murmured half to herself. FIS H The Happy cat  20:51, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage shrugged before giving his paw a brisk lick. "Hiddenstar and Willowstar agreed to let cats settle in first, as this is the first Gathering we've ever had. They want to let their cats get to know each other and get used to things first."  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:53, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

" I see. Makes sense. FlameClan's much older than ScorchClan, isn't it?" being the not-Clanborn she was, Blazefire didn't know if duscussing Clans as a sensitive topic. FIS H The Happy cat  20:56, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar stared at Hiddenstar with a questioning look. "So," she sighed, wanting to begin a quiet conversation. "You're the FlameClan leader?"  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  23:09, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Smokepaw purred in amusement. "Yeah," he replied. "My name's Smokepaw." Meanwhile, Scorchpaw nodded tentatively, before looking for someone to talk with, while Bluestream saw Featherpaw stare at him, and he winked. -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  05:03, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar shifted a tad; she was trying to get comfortable. Icestorm mingled with the ScorchClan cats, eventually appearing near an apprentice. "Oh, I'm sorry-" He stopped himself and asked, "You're ScorchClan?" (Scorchy xD)  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  12:15, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage nodded slowly. It felt good to finally talk to someone who wasn't constantly fretting over him or trying to win his heart. "Oh yes, much, much older. From what I know, we've gone through multiple leaders...The one who's remembered most is Fallenstar, by far...and he's not remembered in a good way at all." Hiddenstar's gaze returned to Willowstar. "Um, yes..." ''Why wouldn't I be? I'm up on this rock with you, am I not?'' Leopardpaw grinned. "Cool, I like your name! I have a brother, his name's Lightningpaw...but I don't know where he is."  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:38, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

" Fallenstar..." Blazefire breathed, feeling she had heard the word before. ''FlameClan is really that old? ''Her gaze became bright with interest as she turned it back to Stormrage. " That's fascinating! Sorry," she let out a slightly embarassed purr. " Not about Fallenstar's crimes, but about your history. As for that leader... I find it so terrible that some cats don't even give a piece of dung for anyone else. It's like they are surrounded in their own ambitions and see others as just disposable barricades, do you agree?" FIS H The Happy cat  20:52, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage nodded. "Totally. He only opened up to two cats: his son and mate. They were the only living things that he respected. But from what I've learned, now he haunts his son and forces him into brutal training, disabling him from waking up and fleeing. He's even possessed him quite a few times." The dark-furred deputy shook his head slowly as his ears flattened against his skull. "That piece of fox-dung deserved to die, he needs to die again."  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:56, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire suddenly felt somber and dark. She narrowed her eyes and sighed. " That's awful. Just... awful. I wish I could kill him." The dark tabby bit back a growl. " I've had too much experience with cats like that. From when I lived as a rogue, there were cats who'd drive me and my mother out of wherever we tried to make home. My mother'd old mate even drove her out. It's not as bad as what Fallenstar did, but I'm sick of cats who do that kind of stuff. That why I always try and see the best in everyone," she confessed. FIS H The Happy cat  21:09, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage was a little taken back by the molly's sudden darkness, but kept his surprise hidden. "A lot of cats wish they could kill him, Neptune had been one of them...Then Neptune, his son, got his wish. Pretty sad death, having your own kit drowning you. But Fallenstar deserved it, he deserves to be slaughtered over and over by his son."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:14, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire shook her head in disgust. " Sounds like this cat deserved it." She checked her own dark mood, purring slightly. " Well, ScorchClan has had two leaders so far... I think..." she cocked her head to one side and then shrugged. " I fail at history." FIS H The Happy cat  21:22, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage purred. "Oh yes he did, and he died slowly, suffering under water and his son's claws." The tom shifted to try and get comfortable, failing due to his broken leg. "I...Well, I don't even know the name of your current leader, so I can't help you there..."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:25, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

" When did this conversation turn so dark?" Blazefire joked lightly, trying not to wince at the sight of the deputy's broken leg. " Our current leader's Willowstar, and yours is... Halostar or something?" FIS H The Happy cat  21:27, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage snorted, twitching his whiskers in amusement. "All the she-cat's think he has a halo, as if he's a gift from StarClan itself. He's Hiddenstar, and don't worry, he's a really good guy. Used to baby sit me when he was made a warrior."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:30, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire sat back on her haunches to survery Hiddenstar. " He's handsome alright," she said impartially. She gave the deputy a look of amuesmet. " Babysit you? Aww, I can just imagine you as a little Stormkit." She teased the deputy playfully, finding it hard to imagine him as a kit. FIS H The Happy cat  21:32, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage rolled his blue eyes. "I wouldn't try if I were you, from what I've seen, he's mooning over Copperdusk like a wolf moons over the moon." The deputy let out yet another snort of amusement, craning his neck to flatten his shoulder-fur. "Haha. Stormkit had a squad as a kit, and he tried to take them out of camp. Stormkit was mouse-brained enough to wonder into DarkClan to save his sister and get trapped."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:38, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire mocked fear, flattening her ears and comically widening her eyes. " I bet I'd bee mauled by a group of admiring she-cats if I tried," she joked, not serious at all. " Wow, what a hero. Stormkit, I mean." FIS H The Happy cat  21:41, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

"Well, Stormkit was saved by his mommy and daddy." The FlameClan deputy ducked his head in embarrassment, eventually craning his neck once more to lick his chest-fur, trying to hide his mortification. "My littermates and I were even in the fight...We bit some legs every here and there, until 'Scarlet was stolen."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:45, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire felt a little bad for embarassing him. " You think that's embarassing? What until you hear what Blaze did... she tried to eat a frog. Live." FIS H The Happy cat  21:47, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage shook his broad head slowly. "That's what you call embarrassing? I nearly killed myself, my sister, and my Clan."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:49, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

" You think they hold a kit in account for that?" Blazefire sighed, resting her tail on his shoulder for a moment. " You were so young! What did you know? And besides, you didn't have it that a frog suddenly turned around and tried to eat ''you." '' FIS H The Happy cat  21:50, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

"I was a the son of the leader, I was in charge of protecting my littermates. And what did I do? Run out there to get them killed." He let the molly lay her tail on his shoulders for a few heartbeats. "I knew better than to run after a cat trying to kill me."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:52, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

(gtg) Blazefire shook her head slowly. " So? That doesn't make you any diffferent from other kits... maybe you were more responsible, but how could a kit know everything?" FIS H The Happy cat  21:54, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

"A kit has instincts, just like his parents and littermates. But no, I was a fool and ignored them." The deputy grumbled in a dark tone, his ears flattened crossly.  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:55, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar quietly flicked her tail. "Tell me about your Clan."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  21:59, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Hiddenstar narrowed his eyes slightly, knowing better than to give things away about his Clan. "FlameClan? We're a close-nit Clan who'll protect our borders with our own lives."  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:01, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar smiled. "Sounds like that's a good idea you got going. ScorchClan's pretty quiet..." She trailed off, sighing.  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  22:06, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Hiddenstar flattened his ears. "Not FlameClan, we're loaded with kits all the sudden, and the she-cats who are pregnant don't even have mates..."  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:09, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

( ahahaha^^). " This was to save your sister," Blazefire said, trying to bring back his cheerful mood. " If I had a sister, I'd go against my instincts in a heartbeat." She stared at the tom's slumped head with intensity, hoping he would understand her. ''Wait. Maybe...? ''" Stormrage? Do you know a cat named Ivy, by any chance?" FIS H The Happy cat  23:47, August 6, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage let out a soft sigh. "But my instincts were to get my parents, not run out there and get everyone killed. I was a fool. I was even afraid of the dark then." He gave the ScorchClan warrior a sheepish grin. However, at the mention of "Ivy", the tom's body tensed, finding his claws sliding out and sinking into the soft earth. That name...He'd heard it before, hadn't he? Images of battle flashed in his head, of DarkClan, of blood, of war. "...I don't know them personally, but...I have certainly heard of that cat before."  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:21, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

" But you did save her." Blazefire shook her head wryly. " I wish I was afraid of the dark. Kits don't know there's so much more to be afraid of..." she trailed off, raising her head sharply at Stormrage's meow. ''He's heard of my half-sister? ''Excitement rose inside of her. The broad-shouldered cat's tail raised in excitement. " Heard from where? Ivy... she might be my half-sister." FIS H The Happy cat  00:25, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Jolting slightly at the sudden raise of the molly's head, Stormrage tilted his head in confusion, wondering what was up. "I don't know, I can't exactly remember, I think battle...-" The tom trailed off, suddenly growing cautious and defensive around his enemy's apparent half-sister. "What?!"  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:27, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

" Whoa!" Blazefire moved her head backwards and surveyed Stormrage warily. " Yeah... I think she's my half-sister... is that a bad thing?" ''Did I just make a wrong move by revealing that? ''The ginger she-cat shrugged to herself. ''I've got nothing to hide. Whatever my half-sister may be, I'm not. '' FIS H The Happy cat  00:29, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

The deputy narrowed his blue orbs as he gazed at the molly cautiously. "Yes, it is. She's an enemy not only to FlameClan, but to you and your Clanmates as well. She's with DarkClan now." His voice was tense, forcing the fur along his spine to lay flat.  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:31, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

"..oh...?" ''this was unexcpected. ''Blazefire sighed in defeat, glancing down at her paws. " I didn't know that," she said flatly. ''There goes my chance of ever finding another member of my family... ''the she-cat took a shuddering breath, trying to stay calm. She blinked the angry tears out of her vision and raised it to meet Stormrage's narrowed blue eyes. " Well, whatever she is, I'm not." -- FIS H The Happy cat  00:38, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage cocked his head, seeing that he had clearly upset the ScorchClan cat. "I, uh...-" He trailed off, not exactly knowing what to say. "-....I doubt you'll end up like her, she simply chose the wrong path, whilst you chose the correct one."  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:37, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

" Yeah," Blazefire shrugged. " Well, enough of this dark talk. How are things in FlameClan?" she purred, angry at herself for being such a damp cloth. FIS H The Happy cat  00:38, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage shifted as Blazefire shifted the subject, shrugging his response. "Fine, I guess. Our camp's back together at long last, so things are back to normal."  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:40, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire nodded. She saw Scorchpaw at the side of her vision, waving her tail. The ginger she-cat purred, pointing her tail at the young cat. " That's Scorchpaw, my first apprentice. I'm assumung you've had them already, seeing you're deputy." FIS H The Happy cat  00:42, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage nodded. "Yes ma'am I have. My apprentice, however..." The dark-furred tom trailed off, finding it awkward to talk about Falconheart, due to her funny relationship with him. "...She's a warrior now, and was exiled. However, she's been welcomed back in, as it wasn't her fault that she had kits. Takes two to tango. Now she's in the Medicine Cat den."  Sil    ver    st    ar   00:45, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

This bit of news surprised Blazefire, but she didn't want to inquire too much. The ginger she-cat flicked an ear to rid an unwanted fly, then turned back to Stormrage. ''I wonder why he hesistaed like that? Well, it's none of my buisness. ''" Poor cat. What happened to the kits? Are they being incorporated into FlameClan?" FIS H The Happy cat  01:12, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

I can see the confusion and curiousity in her eyes... Sighing inwardly, Stormrage returend his attention to Blazefire's quesiton. "The kits? I have no clue. From what I've learned, they were killed by her ex-mate, as he hurt her before they were born."  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:18, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

" Poor cat," Blazefire sighed. "... so, you have many siblings then?" She was curious as to when this Gathering would start, but was also curious about this strange cat named Stormrage. FIS H The Happy cat  01:29, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage nodded. "Yeah, quite a few. My littermates are Scarletflame, Emberwish, and Shadowpelt...My mother's second litter was killed after Fallenstar possessed Neptune, and he kidnapped her...Then, she had Phoenixpaw and Mintpaw."  Sil    ver    st    ar   01:41, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

"I have a sister," Smokepaw mewed, his chin raised. "Scorchpaw." Scorchpaw, who was near Smokepaw, flicked her ears in her brother's direction as she went past. -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  05:16, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

While Willowstar talked with Hiddenstar, Sunsetflare shifted closer to Scarletflame, his eyes focused on her and her alone. "Maybe we should go in the bushes for more privacy," he whispered in her ear, his cool, gentle voice tense. "We may actually be able to talk without worrying about our Clanmates."  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  10:31, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefired purred as Stormrage listed his littermates. " That is quite a few!" the she-cat broke off as a fly buzzed near her head. She couldn't help but follow the path of it with her eyes before killing it with her teeth. FIS H The Happy cat  11:34, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage studied the she-cat as she attacked the buzzing annoyance, twitching his whiskers in amusement. "It is, but I'm happy to have my littermates, especially...." the deputy trailed off, his blue eyes growing dark once more. "...now that our parents are dead..." Cardinalblaze's cruel death flashed in his mind, causing Stormrage to flinch. Scarletflame shifted, giving the ScorchClan tom a small smile. "Sure," she murmured, turning on her heels to head towards the bush. Leopardpaw frowned after she waved her tail in greetings to Scorchcpaw. "I wish I had a sister...She'd understand me better than my brother."  Sil    ver    st    ar   13:26, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Sunsetflare followed Scarletflame into the bushes. "So, how's the Clan? Anything new? Anything I should know about?" He moved closer, rubbing his head against his love interest's shoulder.  "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?   I get   to   look   at   you."  - Ruby, Steven Universe  13:55, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Scarletflame embraced the ScorchClan warrior in return. "No, nothing new yet...The Clan's ok, we're just having troubles with the Tribe - I mean, The Falling Stars."  Sil    ver    st    ar   14:00, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Scorchpaw waved her tail in reply before padding off, while Smokepaw looked confused. "Your brother doesn't really understand you?" -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  21:11, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Leopardpaw shook her head slowly. "No, not at all...He's a tom, no offense," her eyes shining playfully, she smirked up at Smokepaw.  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:14, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Twitching her whiskers in amusement, Leopardpaw flicked Smokepaw's ear with her face. "C'mon, face it, you guys are much less mature than us she-cats!" She spoke in a purr, clearly amused with the ScorchClan tom.  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:18, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

(yeee bluefeathers) Smokepaw nodded. "Yeah, let's have a look." Meanwhile, Bluestream padded up behind Featherpaw, and asked: "You all right there, young one?" -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  22:48, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Featherpaw looked at Bluestream, her ears pricked. "Oh. Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for asking." Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  22:50, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Bluestream nodded slowly, pausing before he sat by the white-pawed apprentice, his blue gaze bright. -- No w I 'v e s ti ll   go t a   lo t o f f ig ht   le ft   in me  22:52, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Leopardpaw slinked through the bracken, her eyes round with curiousity.  Sil    ver    st    ar   23:33, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire crunched on the fly (>_>), a slightly goofy expression on her face. It vanished when Stormrage told of his parent's deaths. The massive she-cat bowed her head, muzzle scraping the ground. " And I am so, so sorry. I know only too well what it feels like, but I have my mother." FIS H The Happy cat  23:39, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage flattened his ears and frowned as Blazefire dipped into a respectful bow. "Hey, hey, don't bow like that, I'm not royalty." He responded in a mutter. "I still have my siblings."  Sil    ver    st    ar   23:41, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Smokepaw smirked at Leopardpaw for a moment, before he stared into the silvery waters of the rive, dipping a paw in cautiously. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:56, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

Leopard grumbled to herself, watching Smokepaw dip a paw into the water. Fishing didn't seem very hard...  Sil    ver    st    ar   23:58, August 7, 2015 (UTC)

"Brr! This water's freezing," Smokepaw complained, as he shot the paw out of the water, sending a spiral of drops over the two apprentices, getting themselves both a little wet. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  00:00, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Featherpaw continued to awkwardly stare at Bluestream. "So uh.. what's it like being a warrior? I heard it's fun!" Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  00:18, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Bluestream purred. 'yeah, it's geart! I mean, I enjoyed apprenticeship, but as a warrior I get some more freedom." -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  00:20, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire titled her head on the ground, as to fix the deputy with one round green eye. Her whiskers twithced in amuesment. " I'm not bowing to you. I'm bowing to your parents, in StarClan." FIS H The Happy cat  00:25, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Featherpaw let out a sigh. "Being an apprentice takes so much work.. Who was you're mentor?" She asked, cocking her head slightly. Blood doesn't  always  have  to  mean  death  00:28, August 8, 2015 (UTC)

Daisypetal looked around nervously before settling down beside Redriver. " Hi."--- Redriver looked in surprise at the cream-colored cat sitting next to her. The milk scent coming off of her told her the cat was expecting kits. The ginger queen purred and nosed Daisypetal. " How long until your kits are born?"--- Daisypetal gasped in shock, mind reeling. ''Kits?! ''A warm and regretful feeling spread through her body. ''Oh my dream tom, how I wish you knew. These... these are your kits aren't they? So it wasn't a dream! ''" I... I don't know," she said in reply."--- Redriver nodded. " I would say about under a moon." FIS H The Happy cat  14:23, August 10, 2015 (UTC)

Copperdusk hung around near where Hiddenstar and Willowstar were, the ginger she-cat scuffling her paws on the ground as she waited for the Gathering to start. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  05:29, August 13, 2015 (UTC)

Redriver was bored and wondered if the leader would ever start the Gathering. FIS H The Happy cat  02:03, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage flicked his tail tip. "Ah, alrighty then...I still miss them to this very day." Leopardpaw fell into the water. Scarletflame pressed her muzzle against Sunsetflare's shoulder. "I missed you..."  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:39, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire nodded slowly, wondering if she'd have missed her own father had she met him. " As you should." The ginger cat was running out of things to say, so she tipped her muzzle back to study the leaders before scanning the crowd for her mother. ''Hope she found someone to talk to. '' FIS H The Happy cat  21:48, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Sunsetflare purred. "Yeah, you don't think we could…I don't know, be together?" Willowstar wanted to begin, so she muttered, "Shall we begin?" <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Scarletflame ducked her head away from the sunset-colored tom, her ears flattened as she let out a frustrated sigh. "I...I really don't know....I really really want to be with you..."Stormrage opened his mouth to respond, only to hear Hiddenstar shifted and raise his tail for silence. Hiddenstar nodded, raising his tail to signal the beginning of the Gathering.  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:30, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire saw Hiddenstar raise his tail and felt her leap excitedly in her chest. " Nice talking to you!" she mewed quickly to Stormrage before darting away to find her mother in the crowd. She settled down beside Redriver and swiftly glanced around to make sure Scorchpaw had found someone. FIS H The Happy cat  22:37, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar dipped her head. "You start." She raised her voice and yowled, "Let the Gathering begin!" <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Hiddenstar stepped forward, his voice loud and clear as he stood tall beside hte ScorchClan leader. "All is well in FlameClan, prey is running well, and we have plenty of new kits. However, I must warn ScorchClan that the Tribe of Fall- er, The Falling Stars is on hte brink of war with FlameClan, and they are not at all peaceful. I fear there may be trouble for all of us if we aren't careful."  Sil    ver    st    ar   23:00, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire stiffened slightyly as Redriver appeared not to care. ''Who are they? '' FIS H The Happy cat  23:03, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

"Leopardpaw!" Smokepaw shrieked as the mink she-cat fell in the river, and without thinking the gray apprentice dived in after her. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:15, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

"I'm coming!" Smokepaw called, as he spat out some water that had filtered into his mouth. His stroked were clumsy, but he eventually reached Leopardpaw, and bit her scruff. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:19, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

"I've got you, just try to keep your head up," Smokepaw grunted softly as Leopardpaw continued to thrash about, while he tried to paddle back to the bank of the island. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:24, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

By the time Smokepaw managed to flop onto the shore of the island - which was a while - he was weak. He'd managed to carry Leopardpaw the whole way back, and now he was exhausted. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:31, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Leopardpaw flopped onto the shore like a fish, lying beside Smokepaw with her flanks heaving, her eyes half-way closed. After she managed to catch her breath, her now-soft gaze rested on Smokepaw. "I- Thank you...You...You saved my life..."  Sil    ver    st    ar   23:37, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

"You're... welcome..." Smokepaw panted, his eyes half glazed over. "I wasn't going to... let you... die." And in that moment, an affection that Smokepaw had never experienced before washed over him. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:40, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Scorchpaw purred weakly. "Same, even though you're FlameClan..." he purred weakly. -- T h e   s h a d o w s   r u n   l o n g   a s   t h e   s u n s e t   f a l l s  23:43, August 15, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar's tail flicked. "We've got two apprentices, Scorchpaw and Smokepaw, with Blazefire and Cheetaspirit as their respective mentors. Otherwise, ScorchCan is quiet." Sunsetflare sighed and pressed closer to Scarletflare. "Yeah, I do too, but our Clans…" He peeked through the bushes at Willowstar. "Why must we be separated by our Clans?" <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Blazefire puffed out her chest as Willowstar announced Scorchpaw's name. She saw the ginger she-cat sitting a few tail-lengths away and purred at her lively apprentice. ''Where's Smokepaw? ''She looked around but couldn't see him. Alarm bells began to ring in her head and she shifted uneasily. ''I hope he's alright... '' FIS H The Happy cat  23:51, August 16, 2015 (UTC)

Willowstar couldn't have come; she was busy as a queen, and a queen's life always kept her busy. Eaglepaw slowly explored the Gathering spot, wondering if Sunsetflare- the exiled tom- would be there. The orange tom was there, hiding in the bushes as he searched for Scarletflame. <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Sunsetflare still searched for Scarletflame, wondering how she was. Meanwhile, Aspenfern casted a hard glare at Stormrage, not looking pleasant. Eaglepaw, who was glancing around, eventually spotted Hiddenstar and couldn't suppress a small yip of excitement. <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Sunsetflare didn't want to show his face. He didn't know where Scarletflame was or what she was doing. "Scarletflame!" he hissed quietly, hoping she'd find him. <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Blazefire padded into the Gathering clearing, tail twitching slightly as she searched for Stormrage, letting out a huff of air.

Blazefire was about to reply before restraining herself, predicting where the conversation would go. She eyes Stormrage warily, shuffling sideways out of the earshot of her curious mother. " What're you trying to get at?" she admitted, it sounded harsher than she'd intended it to. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  22:28, August 30, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire rolled her eyes, shifting her disproportionate paws. She cleared her throat, unsure of how to begin. " Well, er, Stormrage... I just wanted to... ?" She broke off helplessly, unsure of how to apologize without making it seem like she was begging for mercy. " Can we get past our arguement?"

Nightstripe looked up at Hiddenstar. He calmly approached his leader, gazing around for Willowstar. "Now where is the other leader…" he muttered, still looking for Willowstar. "I don't think she's here," he said to Hiddenstar. <span style="background-color:black;color:red;text-shadow: 0.15em 0.15em 0.15em #a19f9f;border:3px solid blue;"> "You know   what's   great   about   being   split   up?

Stormrage angled his ears towards the unexplored land. "Any interest in exploring? I may be deputy, but the Gathering doesn't seem to be close to starting."  Sil    ver    st    ar   18:47, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Excitement began to pulse through the ginger she-cat's fur at the propsect of exploring. She lifted her tail, eyes sparkling. " I'm in! Let's go!" Blazefire hadn't been doing anything much that day. She was itching to run. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  18:50, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

With a small nod, the dark tabby deputy bolted behind High ?????, entering a thick forest. The tom pricked his ears, gazing around curiously.  Sil    ver    st    ar   18:51, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

(screaming children >_>) Blazefire grunted and darted after him, skidding to a halt beside the deputy. She sniffed, the grass up to her chest. The she-cat suddenly picked up a scent, pressing forwards into the grass and hissing in annoyance as her long fur caught on a few of the blades. " Let's go this way!" she cried while shaking herself free. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  18:55, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage was hopping like a rabbit through the tall grass, his ears pricked and blue eyes shining with glee. He paused, returning his attention to Blazefire before darting after the molly.  Sil    ver    st    ar   18:57, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire ploughed ahead, following the scent she had picked up. As she ran- more like struggled- her paw landed in a pot hole and sent her staggered to the side. Pain shot up her ankle but she ignored it, taking it in good humor, and recalling that she had never been particularly coordinated. Blazefire turned back to Stormrage, calling out playfully: " Come on, slowpoke!" her tail swished, causing the stems to ripple. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  19:00, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

The massive deputy's lungs jutting out of his pelt, Stormrage quickly picked up speed, sticking his tongue out at the she-cat as he passed. "Hah, who's the slowpoke now-" Thud. If only he had seen the tree.  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:02, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire winced at the thud, but felt amuesment bubbling up inside of her. She padded forwards and planted a paw on the deputy's shoulders. " My, what a formiddable opponent you were facing. Trees have been known to catch stray cats and eat them for dinner, you know." Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  19:07, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage smirked. "Then you better wrong, I think it's mighty hungry....After all, it just came out of nowhere like that." He responded in a playful tone, rising to his paws before crouching down low. "...I guess only one of us can survive then, yes? I'll just have to sacrafice you!"  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:10, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

" Oh, the horror," Blazefire said mildly, assessing the deputy's stance. " Although I fancy myself a little too much on the tough side, in the context of meat. Perhaps he'd like a more fragile and tender flesh to chew, like yours." She bared her teeth playfully. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  19:13, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

"Oh no, he likes to eat fur-balls like yourself!" Stormrage let out a playful hiss before leaping at the she-cat's front legs, attempting to knock on her onto her face.  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:18, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire was used to combats. She was also used to combats opening like this, with a lunge. The ginger she-cat was mildly surprised by his descision to go for her paws. She reared up and grabbed at his shoulders as he passed, but was too slow in her action as his momentum knocked her hind paws off balance. " Are you implying that you have no fur?" she managed to wheeze. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  19:20, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

"Oh no, I'm implying that you have a lot of fur, fuzzy." Stormrage responded in a purr, placing his paws on her shoulders. "It's like I'm standing on a mountain of fur."  Sil    ver    st    ar   19:26, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

" Excuse me?" the she-cat said. She was brutal in battle, but none of her battle fury showed in her now. Her intense green eyes shone with good humor as she shoved Stormrage off and head-butted him none too gently in the side. She sniffed. " I take that as an insult to my fur. Huh, you hardly have any." Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  19:53, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

"No fur? Pah, I'm no sphynx! I've got a full pelt of thick, gorgeous fur." Speaking in a humorous tone, Stormrage shook out his "lustrous" fur, twitching his whiskers in amusement. "Just not nearly as much as you, little fluffy sheep." The tom stuck out his tongue.  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:14, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire returned the gesture. " Thick I think is justifiable. May want to rethink the 'gorgeous' part. You're too full of yourself. Might do you good to be a sheep for a while." Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  20:28, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage rolled his eyes. "Fine then, your fur's pretty too." He then paused, realizing that he just made the situation awkward.  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:30, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire readied herself for another reply before Stormrage's sentence cut her short. She looked at him sideways. " Why, thank you," she said midly, refusing to let her emotions show. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  20:40, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage flicked his tail before angling his ears towards the unexplored land. "Well, we better finish exploring...." Without waiting for a reply, the deputy took off. "And no trees shall be in my way this time!"  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:43, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Still thinking about his earlier comment. Blazefire darted after the deputy. The unruly grass was full of insects, and altogether it was not very impressive. " Do you see anything?" she called. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  20:49, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage eventually skidded to a halt, gaping up at a colossal tree. "There's this big tree, that's about it!" The tom remained still for a few moments before giving into the temptation. "Screw it, I'm climbing it...."  Sil    ver    st    ar   20:52, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire gaped at the thick trunk, feeling awed by the tree. " Race you to the top!" she called out foolishly, knowing that she couldn't climb well at all. But the stocky she-cat ignored logic and leapt up, claws unsheathed to grab the trunk. She hadn't felt this happy in moons. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  21:51, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage fluffed out his pelt. "You're on!" He knew he'd lose, Stormrages weren't meant to climb trees. He clambered onto the first branch, only to fall off, but he refused to give up. Leaping back onto the trunk, the tom heaved himself upward, pressing himself against its rough bark.  Sil    ver    st    ar   21:55, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire was having similar thoughts. She tried to find a foothold, not quite knowing much about the process of tree climbing. She managed to get some sort of hold and propelled herself up another inch. Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  22:03, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage slowly clambered after the she-cat, but eventually, after getting so high, he froze, starting to shake. He was so high....sooooo far off the ground. ''C-Cat's can't fly, right? Oh StarClan, if I fall, I'll be just a puddle!''  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:06, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire kept pushing onwards, but stopped after she realized Stormrage wasn't following. The she-cat awkwardly slid around the tree so she was above Stormrage, and then managed to move down so she was beside him. " What's wrong? 'Fraid of heights?" Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  22:08, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

"N-N-N-No.....M-M-Maybe...." The tom continued to shiver, totally refusing to move upwards or downwards. He simply pressed himself against the tree even more, his blue eyes growing round with fear.  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:12, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Blazefire stared at him for a few moments, trying to figure out what to do. " Did you really have to discover that ''now?" ''she grumbled, slowly moving down beneath him. " I'll guide you down. Put your paw here." Where you te nd  a ro  se ,m  y l  ad,  A this  tle ca  nnot grow  22:19, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

Stormrage, still shaking, slowly and hesitantly moved his paw, only to fall. (thatsucks)  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:21, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

" STORMRAIN!" Blazefire screeched, as the tom slid down past her. In a wild and desperate lunge, she reached out for his scruff with her teeth and felt them sink into what hopefully was his scruff. Her left front paws had let go in the dive for him but she dug them back into the bark, backwards on the tree.

Stormrage landed with a thud. (my lazy post, yaaay)  Sil    ver    st    ar   22:29, August 31, 2015 (UTC)

"But really, it's a big responsibility, and I'll stop at nothing to keep my Clanmates safe."  Sil    ver    st    ar   17:40, September 1, 2015 (UTC)
