On a New Era

Setting: By the river

Brokenstar: *jumps on a tree limb* I thought we could have a chance of setting this time.

Snowtuft: *mutters* What change? We still have to stare up as his flea-bitten pelt.

Sparrowfeather: *hisses* Don't complain. I sleep under that rock. Here is better.

Silverhawk: *waltz in* So, what are we discussing?

Brokenstar: WELL, if you'd BEEN here for the last several meetings instead of doing whatever it is you do

-montage of Silverhawk pulling pranks on Darkstripe-

Brokenstar: THEN you'd know. Seriously; even Sparrowfeather was there, though she was sleeping.

Sparrowfeather: I heard you all. I'm a light sleeper. *mutters* Unfortunately.

Tigerstar: *jumps on branch, almost pushing Brokenstar into the water* NOW. We all should discuss what our New Age of the Clans should be, after we win the whole battle and all.

Snowtuft: Aren't you counting your prey before it's caught?

Tigerstar: Do you DOUBT my abilities to bring in a new age, Snowtuft?

Snowtuft: Well, your track record is pretty bad.

Brokenstar: *shoves Tigerstar* THIS IS MY SPOT.

Tigerstar: *shoves Brokenstar* NO IT'S MINE. I WILL FINALLY HAVE THE SPOT I DESERVE.

Hawkfrost: *looks at his father in embarrassment and coughs* So, I think that all Clans should be ruled with Democracy. No more leader picks deputy who becomes leader afterward. All the cats will vote.

Maggottail: And we can influence the vote?

Hawkfrost: Naturally.

Mapleshade: *rising from the water* AND WE CAN MAKE IT A HAVEN FOR ALL QUEENS AND KITS REGARDLESS OF CLAN STATUS RIGHT SPARROWFEATHER. ANYONE WHO WANTS TO EXILE THEM WILL BE FORCED TO FIGHT AN ELITE GUARD FOR THE QUEENS WHO WILL CATER TO THEIR EVERY NEED. RIGHT?

Sparrowfeather: Why am I always lumped into your plans because I'm a she-cat?

Brokenstar: *raises his voice over Tigerstar's yowling* NO! All the weak must be driven and killed off!

Snowtuft: Even the kits and queens? You DO know how a clan is populated right, Brokenstar? Or no, I mean, you did have a problem with that when you were alive.

Maggottail: *snickers*

Brokenstar: Only the strongest kits will survive!

Hawkfrost: And how will we test their strength? Make them race to their mothers belly? *scoffs*

Mapleshade: WHAT about Medicine Cats? I don't want ANY after what Ravenwing did! And Starclan...StarClan...

Silverhawk: They can always talk to us after we kill StarClan. And honestly; I think we should have someone who knows how to heal wounds. Like, I mean, Snowtuft, Maggottail, didn't you both die from sickness or wounds?

Snowtuft: I don't remember how I died, honestly. Maggottail died from a belly ache after eating a sparrow with maggots in it.

Silverhawk: *muses* So that's how he got his name...

Maggottail: NO! ...It was just a lucky guess.

Thistleclaw: *ears perk up* Uh oh. You-Know-Who is coming. Everyone, scram!

*All cats climb up trees and out of sight with Brokenstar and Tigerstar still fighting for their spot on the branch*

Darkstripe: GUYS? GUUUUUUYS? Clawface said you'd be here!

Tigerstar: *quietly* Curse that Clawface. Really, he doesn't do anything useful.

Darkstripe: GUUUUYS? I thought we were gonna talk about our plan for the new Clan? GUUUYS? *runs a length aways and back* GUUUYS? Are you testing me?

Snowtuft: *to Sparrowfeather who is beside him* I can't understand how that cat doesn't realize we don't like him.

Sparrowfeather: *to Snowtuft* Some cats are born with thistledown for brains. Not just him. *points tail to Mapleshade*

Snowtuft: You really don't like her, huh?

Sparrowfeather: She's crazier than a fox in a fit. I wish she'd be double dead already.

Brokenstar: *still wrestling with Tigertar in the tree* AHAHA *Pushes Tigerstar out into the water* I WIN

*Tigerstar falls into the water right before Darkstripe.*

Darkstripe: *Ears and tail perk up* TIGERSTAR. TIGERSTAR! *runs around him as he climbs out of the river like a kit* *purrs*

*Tigerstar looks up at trees with a "help me" expression*

Brokenstar: Okay, next meeting is how we get rid of Darkstripe.
