Chapter 20: A gathering to remember...

Ok guys, I am making myself a challenge, I'm trying to update daily but my work has less quality to it now, which is disappointing, so now.. I am going to spend more time on plots, detail, perspective and time. Making my story as best as it can! So, hope you guys like it! Also I have a great plot coming up soon! I can't wait!

Jayfeather tossed and turned in his sleep, his moss being scattered everywhere, he was in the medicine den, the cave pitter pattering with the droplets of water falling from the roof. Jayfeather's muscles clenched, his fur growing hot, he gasped in his dreams, it was a nightmare...

Jayfeather ran, faster than he had ever ran before, he was following Spottedleaf, her graceful paws gliding over the slippery rocks with delicate ease. Jayfeather's clear blue eyes were locked on her, she was leading him somewhere. The world began to blur around him, shapes becoming distorted and being bent. Then, with a flash of colour the world materialised. Jayfeather stopped to a screeching halt. His jaw dropped open, in front of him was the most amazing sight he had ever seen, not that there were many.

He was in the tribe of rushing water, the waterfall scattering thousands of light, bouncing droplets everywhere. However, stood in front of him, in all their sparkling glory. Was Starclan and the tribe of endless hunting.

The warriors glittered, their fur, like captured starlight, and their eyes, glowing vibrant colours of the rainbow. Jayfeather had never been so mystified. There waiting for him was the cat he wanted to see most. Half moon.

He launched to her and shoved his muzzle into her perfect, white pelt. He purred and then looked up into her amazing dark green eyes. "Jay's wing, I have waited for you for what seems eternity, and now I bring a message. A prophecy, that has burned in the stars for countless moons, that the tribe of endless hunting has waited for, long before the first cat joined Starclan. And now Jay's wing, the prophecy will finally be told. The ancient secret, shared to the world."

Her voice soothed Jayfeather, however he shook his head trying to regain focus and to avoid being lost to her eyes. "What is this prophecy?"

Half Moon looked deep into his eyes and spoke the words loudly so all the cats could hear.

"Five, the rulers of the stars, the kin of Thunderclan's strongest blood will rise to battle the ghosts of the forgotten past. They will face great terror and tragedy to defeat the shadows that deceive us in the dark."

Jayfeather's eyes widened and his pupils shrank to slits. "Do we need to use our powers again? And five a fifth? Also Firestar is dead! We need to find two cats now!"

Half Moon shook her head. "No Jay's wing, the five are not any of the four, these are new cats, that are far more powerful than the four before them."

Jayfeather gasped. "More powerful than us!? That's not possible! We had the powers of the stars in our paws!"

Half Moon bit back a laugh. "But Jay's wing, these cats do not have the power of the stars in their paws, they are the rulers of the stars."

Spottedleaf padded up to him, she stared at him with clear amber eyes. "Jayfeather, you must tell the other two this, and make it clear the new prophecy is not about them. This time, it will not be you saving the clans but the five. This time, you will mentor them and more importantly find them!"

Jayfeather's vision suddenly became black and he felt himself falling into darkness.

He woke up with a start, his breathing ragged and unstable. "The five... we must find the five."

The moon was at it's highest. It was the night of the gathering, the full moon. The gentle moonlight shone on his fur, making it look white. He looked across the den to Briarlight, sound asleep, she hadn't been getting much sleep after Blossomfall had left. Luckily her head wound her sister had given her had healed well and she was perfectly healthy.

Jayfeather padded into the clearing. Cats were waiting for Bramblestar, he would take them to the gathering. Bramblestar climbed down from his den and looked around at the group. Jayfeather, Lionblaze, Dustpelt, Cloudtail, Spiderleg, Bumblestripe, Cinderheart, Ivypool, Dovewing, and Cherrypaw and Molepaw along with their mentors, Foxleap and Icecloud. Bramblestar nodded, his amber eyes gleaming in the darkness.

They padded through the trees of thunderclan, the faint wind rustling the crispy leaves. Lionblaze walked beside Jayfeather. His brother looked troubled, his blind blue gaze oddly fixed on nothing, and he kept tripping. Lionblaze pulled him to the back. "What's the matter?"

Jayfeather growled at him. "A prophecy."

Lionblaze waited then annoyed asked. "Are you going to tell me?"

Jayfeather shook his head. "Not now."

Lionblaze annoyed caught up to Cinderheart. It was funny the grey she cat always had a way of calming him down. She purred when she saw him. "Well then, isn't it my favourite orange ball of fluff?"

Lionblaze half heartedly growled. "Your one to talk, you've got the fluffiest tail ever known!"

Cinderheart laughed, and gave him a playful shove, Lionblaze pretended to fall and dragged her down with him. They fell into the red and orange leaves that littered the ground in a fit of laughter. Cloudtail looked down on them with a huge grin. "Hey love birds! We're going to cross the tree now!"

Cinderheart and Lionblaze exchanged an embarrassed grin and ran after their clanmates.

When the finally got to the island they didn't find what they were expecting. Riverclan, Shadowclan and Windclan angrily growling and hissing at a group of cats in the centre.

"What's happened?" Cinderheart gasped.

Lionblaze got a closer look and realised all the cats were the ones exiled.

Blackstar was angrily shouting at Breezepelt and then launched onto the great oak. "Fine! Let the gathering begin. Then possibly you can explain what in Starclan your doing here Breezepelt!"

Lionblaze took his position under the tree, looking around he realised the exiled cats were in a group in the centre, not scared or worried about the hostile warriors around them.

Blackstar began. "Shadowclan has exiled the traitors. We are free from the claws of the dark forest. Prey is running well. Shadowclan prospers."

Onestar stood up. "Windclan has banished our traitors also."

Mistystar stood up. "I am sad to report the death of Beetlewhisker, I have been told he died standing up for his clan, but was murdered by Brokenstar. I am glad to report all warriors who betrayed Riverclan have been banished without mercy."

Bramblestar stood up next. "I am deeply saddened to report the death of Thunderclan's leader, Firestar. He died saving his clan, he killed Tigerstar once and for all." Lionblaze could feel the anger in the tom's voice, he was clearly glad his father was dead. "I would also like to announce that Lionblaze, is the new deputy of Thunderclan." Lionblaze ducked his head in embarrassment when all the four clans started cheering.

"We also banished the dark forest trainees." Bramblestar finished.

Blackstar hissed at Breezepelt who was sitting arrogantly on the branch. "So, Breezepelt, would you like to explain why you are here?"

Breezepelt stood up, puffed out his chest and spat at Lionblaze. Lionblaze recoiled in disgust. "I am the new leader of a new clan."

All the clan cats gasped and started shouting abuse at the black cat. But Breezepelt just stood there, with his amber eyes gleaming with excitement and hatred. "I am Breezepelt the new leader of Darkclan."
