Authors note.
My first Warrior Cats fanfic! I've been meaning to write this for a while but never got round to it. I am going to update my little hunger games soon (Sorry i've been taking so long). I really hope you enjoy this.
A dark grey tom turned. "Are you all sure this is the right decision for our Clans?"
"Silly fur ball!" A bracken coloured she-cat with brown eyes glanced over at him as she spoke. "We all agreed on this last moon and with the greatest respect, Greystar, you have been dead for much longer than the rest of us. You don't know exactly what clan life is like now, how it has changed."
"Are you saying I don't know what's best for my clan, OakStar?!" the tom hissed.
"Not at all, GreyStar, but you must remember DarkClan is no longer yours. It is now led by Cinderstar."
Greystar would have happily sprung at the she-cat if another cat, a silver-grey tom, hadn't stood in front of him, blocking Oakstar from view.
"That's enough, GreyStar." Once he was certain Greystar wouldn't make a move, he turned to the she-cat. "And you, Oakstar. You know full well that Greystar has been watching over DarkClan and he knows exactly what's changed."
Oakstar dipped her head to the tom respectfully. "Yes, you're right, Froststar. I'm sorry."
Greystar hissed and prowled away, pacing. "Where are the other two? They are taking far too long to get here, we need to start this meeting now!"
As if summoned, the last two joined them. "Greetings Greystar, Oakstar, Froststar," one called.
"Well, it's about time you got here!" Greystar narrowed his eyes at the two toms who stood in front of him. "Where were you?"
"Where we were is no concern of yours; it's FireClan and BreezeClans business, not yours."
"All that matters is that Leopardstar and Blazestar are here now. Please can we all just begin this meeting?" At the murmurs of agreement from the others, Froststar began. "As you know there are many cats lives depending on this meeting, if all goes well then it shall be good for all the clans."
"Of course." Leopardstar agreed, padding over and sitting next to Oakstar. Greystar eyed all the leaders for a second before sitting down alongside Blazestar.
Leopardstar mewed, "I believe we have come here to talk about Silver Pelt and what the future means for our clans."
Froststar shuffled uncomfortably. "As you know I have been the most observant of the clans recently, and from what I have gathered I believe EarthClan is the most venerable at this point in time."
Greystar stared at him in shock, while Blazestar fixed the leader with his amber gaze. "Go on…"
"Well…" He hesitated, thinking. "Well, as you all know, Oakstar is one of the newest additions to the ranks of Star Clan, and Lorrelfur, as the new leader of EarthClan, has not been able to receive her nine lives yet. I think that you'll all agree that this places EarthClan in a rather difficult position."
Greystar sighed then nodded reluctantly. "Yes. I see what you mean and I agree with you."
Oakstar looked slightly shocked; Greystar had agreed her own clan should be warned first? She looked at the other two toms. "What do you think?"
Blazestar bowed his head in agreement. "I think what Froststar said is true, and that you should walk in Leafcloud's dreams in a few nights time."
Leopardstar stepped forward. "I actually disagree with you all." Before anyone could interrupt him he continued. "I believe that we should all walk in all of the medicine cats' dreams, tonight."
Quiet murmurs came from all the other leaders.
"Do you mean all of us go to each medicine cat?!" Greystar shook his head and scoffed, "Ludicrous!"
"Although I am not sure of this idea myself, I do understand what Leopardstar is trying to say. If we all appear to the medicine cats, then it will show that this is not only an important message but also that this will be something that shall affect all the clans." Froststar's amber eyes looked straight at the old BreezeClan leader and he nodded. "Therefore I am agreeing with Leopardstar on this occasion."
Blazestar merely nodded. Oakstar took a moment to consider things before agreeing.
"Well, Greystar. What do you think?"
"I suppose there is some sense in the idea…"
"There's a lot of sense in it you mousebrain!" Oakstar yowled. "Why do you always make things so difficult?"
"Actually, Oakstar. I was about to agree to the idea…"
"Then it's settled. We shall speak to the medicine cats tonight."
The leaders dispersed quickly. Blazestar walked alongside Leopardstar away from the other retreating leaders. "Do you believe this is truly the right choice?" he murmured.
"I believe we will always try and do the best for our clans." He looked up with a sigh. "Unfortunately on this occasion I am not sure which is the right path."
