How the Dark Forest Cats Decided Who to Train

Brokenstar: *goes on his rock* ALRIGHT, GATHER ROUND.

Tigerstar: *muttering* Who died and made him Clan leader?

Hawkfrost: Technically? Raggedstar.

Thistleclaw: *joins in* Not that it matters. We're all already dead.

Darkstripe: *running at full speed toward the meeting area* HI GUYS WAIT UP! YOU FORGOT TO TELL ME YOU CHANGED THE MEET UP PLACE! HEY TIGERSTAR HEY!

Snowtuft: Riiiight. Forgot. How silly of us.

Tigerstar: Having Darkstripe following me is more of a punishment than this place will ever be.

Brokenstar: *unaware of the bickering going on below* SO we need to think of cats we can train to turn against the Clans! Does anyone have any ideas?

Mapleshade: *appears from nowhere and other cats jump in fright* That poor kit from ThunderClan, Blossomfall. Normally I'd want to destroy all of ThunderClan but SHE, I will ally with, to HELP me do so. She's been neglected by her mother and I'LL prove I will be the GREATEST mother to her and together we'll FINISH THE CLAN *spittle foams at mouth*

*All cats take a few pawsteps away*

Brokenstar: *Eye twitch* Thank you, Mapleshade, for your contribution. Anyone else?

Tigerstar: Breezepelt of WindClan. We can use his hate.

Hawkfrost: *fur fluffs up* Breezepelt? Isn't he a little too evil for us?

Tigerstar: *glares at his son* Well, who would you suggest?

Hawkfrost: *puffs up chest* Ivypaw of ThunderClan. Her jealousy over her sister makes her a prime target. Besides, her sister is in that StarClan prophecy thing.

Maggottail: *hisses* I remember jealous oh so well. When I was alive, I was named Maggotkit with a sister named Starkit! She was named after the stars herself and was deluded into thinking there was a special prophecy for her. But I straightened her out...but still, I think of Starkit's name and know it should be MINE.

Snowtuft: *mutters* Y'know I got a pretty stupid name too but I don't go on any rants about it.

Brokenstar: *rolls eyes and mutters* Can we just get through ONE meeting without arguing? *says in a louder voice* Anyone else?

Darkstripe: Tigerheart! He's Tigerstar's son and looks just like him! He'll do great!

Thistleclaw: I'm not sure. *ear twitches* He's not very hateful and pretty happy-go-lucky...Maybe his sister would do better. She's so serious; she'd probably accuse someone with murder at a Gathering. *laughs*

Tigerstar: Are you saying my son isn't up to task?

Thistleclaw: don't you think you're being a liiiiitttle favorable to your kin?

*Both cats are about to fight*

Darkstripe: TIGERSTAR WOULD NEVER BE ANYTHING BUT FAIR AND JUST.

Snowtuft: *mutters to Maggottail* Which is exactly why he's here, right?

Mapleshade: I AM THE FAIREST AND JUSTICEST OF ALL. WHO KILLED RAVENWING? I DID! WHO KILLED FRECKLEWHATSHERFACE? I DID. WHO KILLED APPLEDUSK? I DID. WHO MADE THUNDERCLAN AND RIVERCLAN SUFFER? I DID!

Brokenstar: *looks down at the bickering cats then up at the endless trees* At this rate we'll be destroying the kin of the kin of the kin of the kin of the kin of the kin of the kin of Firestar's kin.
