Disclaimer: I don't own Warriors. Wonderful. We all want to know that, don't we?
Owlstar leaped onto the Hightree. "All cats old enough to catch their own prey, join beneath the Hightree to hear what I have to say!" he yowled to the assembling mass of cats below him.
"I will now organize the group to go to the Gathering...Lightningstripe, Heatherstream, Serepentstrike, Ravenfeather, Oliveleap, you can choose the apprentices to go. If your apprentices deserve to go then you can take them with you."
Owlstar jumped off of the Hightree and started walking towards the island. The warriors quickly ran to assist Redfur, who had decided to accompany them to the Gathering.
WindClan was anxiously milling about when they arrived. "What's up with them?" Moonflight whispered to Owlflight, her friend. Owlflight hushed Moonflight and gazed up at the moon.
"We'll find out soon," the brown she-cat murmured as Owlstar yowled for the Gathering to begin.
Seeing the panicked look on Fawnstar's face, Owlstar stepped aside to let the WindClan leader speak first. "O-our...p-p-prey is g-gone," stammered the leader nervously. "Th-the w-w-wolves took all of our p-p-prey!" With that, Fawnstar fainted with fear.
Nettlestar sneered at the weakness of the WindClan leader, and stepped backwards as Sageblaze, the deputy of WindClan, struggled to fit on the tree.
"The wolves attacked our camp during sunset...they took all of our rabbits! We have barely had time to hunt to feed the only elder we have!" Sageblaze yowled. Fearful murmurs began to drown out Sageblaze's words.
"No!" Owlflight meowed in a hushed tone. Moonflight fixed her eyes on a strange silver shape in the trees. She could see something...
"Why are you squinting?" Owlflight meowed curiously, breaking Moonflight's concentration. The deputy shook her head and turned to face her friend.
"It's nothing," she replied, trying to sound calm. When Owlflight snorted and turned away, Moonflight shot a glance back at the trees. There was nothing there.
" Anyways-" yowled Owlstar over the commotion, "We must not let fear get in the way of planning. Let us quickly report our clan's events and then we can get down to discussing the more serious problems!"
Nettlestar narrowed his eyes at Owlstar and opened his mouth to speak, but Sageblaze sent him a warning glare and he closed his muzzle. Owlstar placed a steady paw on the branch of the tree. "The prey is running well in RiverClan. We are saddened by WindClan's loss, and we wish we could help." All of the cats nodded in agreement, and Nettlestar stepped up.
"ShadowClan is thriving. We have made three new warriors-" he paused to angle his ears toward three black warriors sitting together, "And we hope to increase our patrols along the border with their help." Nettlestar shot a pointed glance at Silverstar, and Moonflight guessed there had been some sort of argument over the border. The pale brown leader sat down, and Silverstar rose.
The ThunderClan leader's pelt gleamed in the moonlight. "Sageblaze, we will do all we can to help you," she meowed sympathetically. Sageblaze gazed up at Silverstar, her eyes giving away nothing. "Therefore I will allow WindClan to take part of our forest land for the time being. We will set the borders at dawn tomorrow."
Owlflight gave a long growl. "Why should we help WindClan again?" she hissed to Moonflight. Moonflight flicked her ears but did not reply. Owlflight lashed her tail and stood up, fur bristling. Almost the whole mass turned to face her. "There is no reason we should give away our land, our prey to WindClan! What have they ever done for us?" she yowled. A few ThunderClan cats nodded in agreement with her.
Suddenly a few clouds drifted over and started to cover the moon. The cats gasped and fell silent. "An omen! An-Aaaaggghhhh!" The pained yowl of Heatherstream came from the edge of the clearing as a silver shape darted out from the trees and grabbed her. "Silence!" a huge voice roared over the panicked cats. The wolf held Heatherstream in its muzzle. "We come to talk!"
Ooh, what will happen?
