"A great tragedy has befallen our clan." Rainstar mewed. The cats of Riverclan and Shadowclan began to mew, but Thunderclan and Windclan knew what was going on. "One of our young warriors, Skysong, was found dead on Thunderclan territory. They then returned her to us."
Darkheart felt a relief. He thought she was going to blame Thunderclan. Unless… he thought.
Rainstar cut into Darkheart's thoughts, "I have given Shadestar until tonight to apologize for this horror, or else we will attack."
Now the same Riverclan and Shadowclan cats were shocked. Treeclaw turned to Darkheart and mewed, "What?"
Sageleaf answered for him, "I think she's bluffing."
Let's hope Darkheart thought.
"Do you have any proof that a Thunderclan cat killed Skysong?" Cinderstar mewed.
"Yes." Rainstar mewed.
"What?" Rockfall called out.
Rainstar answered, "Your clan brought her back to us."
"Would you rather of had us leave her there to rot?" Shadestar retaliated.
Many Shadowclan cats, including Treeclaw were starting to mew in agreement with Shadestar.
"She wouldn't be rotting if you hadn't killed her!" Rainstar snapped.
"How many times do we have to tell you? We didn't kill her!" Shadestar growled.
"I believe Rainstar." Barkstar mewed.
"When will he learn to keep his mouth shut?" Sageleaf hissed.
Shadestar turned to Barkstar and mewed, "You would be a fool to say another word."
Rainstar then mewed, "You have left us no choice Shadestar. We will attack."
Many Thunderclan cats started mewing protests, and Windclan cats began chanting "Avenge Skysong! Avenge Skysong!"
Rainstar then jumped down from the tall trees and walked away, with her clan following her, still chanting. Soon, the chants faded away.
Barkstar then jumped off the Tall Tree, and signaled for his clan to leave.
"I guess this gathering is over." Shadestar mewed.
"You think she will attack?" Treeclaw mewed.
"I am convinced of it." Darkheart answered.
Shadestar bounded off the Tall Tree, and Thunderclan followed her. As soon as they were away from the place of gathering, Stonecloud mewed, "Are we going to prepare for an attack?"
"Of course." Shadestar mewed.
"Do you think that Shadowclan will attack with them?" Whitewhisker asked.
"I have a feeling Barkstar wants to get even after we embarrassed him in the last battle. Cinderstar said she would be willing to help us if there was a battle." Shadestar mewed.
As the Thunderclan cats walked into camp, Darkheart smelled blood.
A/N: Sorry this took so long. I should be finished with this by Friday, but don't hold me to it.
