OOC: Okay! Lets go! XD
IC: After nodding to Froststar as a sign that he was happy for her, the Earthclan leader stepped forward stiffly to the end of his branch. A flick of his tail helped the crowd grow silent once more. "Earthclan has two new warriors. Rippedtail and Thunderstripe!"
After a while, slowly, Thawpelt began to notice that a different cat was standing on the branch above Goldeneye. If Snowstar is still sick, shouldn't the deputy be up there?
With a small purr of happiness, Pondpaw worked her paws on the ground. The slim silver-blue apprentice hardly remembered the factor of having to leave for the tribe soon. The Waterclan she-cat hardly noticed the small snicker of something from Lilypaw.

Rippedtail straightened her back and sat straight and proud. She had a feeling she never felt before. She flicked her striped tail in fustration that she couldn't figure out what she was feeling.
Nerves? Joy? Happiness? Sadness? Pride? Anger? Love? Jolliness? Depression? Tiredness? [/i] Still unable to figure out what she was feeling, Rippedtail put her mind at rest and listened to the rest of the gathering. Relizing that for the first time the the cat called Mossheart, was up instead of the deputy, Goldeneye.[/color]

Burningstar nodded with approval for Earthclan's new warriors. although he didn't have much news for his own clan, he was glad everything seemed to be going well in a peaceful matter as of the moment. even he noticed that many cats were looking over to Mossheart, who just jumped up onto the oak, and the Lightningclan deputy sitting below. he wondered what that was about, but didn't want to ask. he respected whatever was happening, though a part of him wondered what happened to Snowstar.
Goldeneye looked at his paws for a while, hoping that the other cats wouldn't be so nosey. he wanted this gathering to be over with. this was the first time he felt violated of his own space in this forest with so many cats that he knew. but under their eyes, he felt vunerable. hurry up... he thought to himself, and hoped that Mossheart would do a good job convincing everyone of what was happening.

Congragulating with the rest of the cats again for the two new warriors, Mossheart could suddenly feel the gazes of many cats looking upon her. Cats beneath the branches were slowly losing their attention to the leader's speech and were starting to whisper silently to each other about the she-cat who must have sat in the wrong spot on the branch. Her pelt bristled at the uncomtableness. Her tail twitched, she wanted to get this suituation over with as quickly as possible, yet she knew she had to speak last, but time for her, seemed to drag forever.

As the whispers of the crowed grew louder and louder, Treestar began to feel anger pool up in his chest. His fluffy tail fluffed up even more, and began to twitch slightly. The Earthclan leader knew what they were talking about. "SILENCE!" Treestar's yowl erupted from his chest before the leader himself could notice its approach. The cats below fell silent quickly, and turned their shocked eyes to the Earthclan leader. "I can see that I should not waste my breath, when you all clearly wish to know about Snowstar..." Treestar rested his amber gaze on Mossheart, and lightened his tone, "Go on young one...tell us all the latest news." The Earthclan leader could feel the eyes of all the cats shift from him to Mossheart as he was done speaking.
Jumping from his father's loud yowl for silence, Thawpelt flushed slightly under his pelt. The Skyclan warrior had been sadly talking too, and he felt ashamed because of it. Thawpelt followed the gaze of possibly every other cat, and allowed his dark blue eyes to lock onto Mossheart.

OOC: Are Lakeripples kits still kits? (if that makes sense)
Thunderstripe weaved through the crowd trying to spot Rippedtail, he spotted her just as he heard their names mentioned by Treestar, he chest puffed out with pride and he held his head high for the last few tail-lenghts, he finally reached her and sat down beside her, his randomly black and tan zig-zagged pelt brushing against her sleek black. He leant over and whispered in her ear. "Isn't this great! our first gathering as warriors!" a faint purr rumbled in his throat, keeping one ear to the reporting leaders.

Burningstar nodded in encouragement as well. "go on" he purred, turning his gaze steadily to Mossheart from his branch, then turning back to look at the crowd of silent cats down below the oak, waiting.
Goldeneye swallowed nervously. his fur lay back down, thanks to Treestar's help. he wondered how the cats would respond to the huge announcement that awaited them, and he silently hoped that Mossheart would not only win the minds of her clan, but also Starclan's approval.
Snowstep watched Mossheart with encouragement in her green-blue eyes. she didn't know what was going on that she was up there, but she was with her friend to the end. she was glad that the gossips died down, because it didn't do any good when she tried to hush the friends around her. but now, she felt that the full attention of all the cats were on Mossheart. she hoped that it wouldn't unerve her.
Emberfrost rolled his eyes and sat down to wait for the news. he never imagined that Treestar would send such a hush across the clearing.

The gathering of cats suddenly remained quiet, so quiet that the sounds of leaves rustling were heard from the slight breeze. Mossheart dipped her head in thanks as Treestar gave her the opportunity to speak. She felt awkward at first as all pairs of eyes suddenly locked their gaze to hers at once. Suddenly, she began to feel embarrassed and she could feel the blush emerging itself out from her cheeks. Taking a deep breath, she started, just as she did in the speech for her clan. "Regarding with the leadership in LightningClan, there has been a slight arrangement. As announced from the previous gathering, Goldeneye has dealt with greencough which he was recovered from recently. But with the sudden annoucement from Snowstar that she was retiring, this has given him some extra shock. He feels that he is not confident enough to lead LightningClan. Therefore, he has asked me to take on the role of being leader in LightningClan." Before the cats could talk, she cut them off, "Yes, I comprehend, I am not a suitable leader as I have never been in the position of deputy before but I know that I can lead LightningClan fulfilling like always." As she stop to take a breath, she could hear some outbreaks of protests and muttering of disapproval. However, she needed the support from not only her clan but from other clans, especially with StarClan. She silenced her tail for silence, but there were still some whispers every now and then. "Morever, with this decision from LightningClan, Goldeneye should not be looked down upon as he has done his best for the clan already. He deserves the respect from every other cat for his actions of loyalty." Turning her gaze to Goldeneye, she blinked gratefully at him for what he had done in the past.

OOC: WHERE DID EVERYONE GO??? =(
IC: "Thank you, Mossheart." Goldeneye gave a slight nod and blinked to his new leader in thanks, before looking back down again at his paws, unable to face some of the unbelievable stares the cats were giving him.
Burningstar nodded in approval and motioned for her to go on.

OOC: My Internet connection was lost, and I couldn't get on! =( Hopefully it will be more trustworthy now......
IC: Treestar, now knowing what had happened to Snowstar, bowed his head to Mossheart slowly. "Snowstar was a great leader. I hope her retirement will be one that is both peaceful and comfortable." The Earthclan leader began to feel the weight of the forest resting on his shoulders once more. What if he had to retire too some day? Would he be able to trust his deputy with leadership afterwords? So many questions buzzed threw the Earthclan leader's head, that he hardly held back a harsh shudder. With a glance to Spottednose, Treestar took a few slow breaths, and felt the weight lifting as he gazed at his medicine cat's eyes. They reminded him of Mudslide/Moonrise's....
Thawpelt let his jaw slack open a bit in shock. Mossheart taking leadership over Goldeneye? The white and brown tabby warrior didn't shun this idea at once like most cats would have done. More or less, he felt fear for Mossheart. What if Starclan didn't accept this?
Pondpaw shivered at the news. She could feel the tension in the air at the word of Goldeneye not being leader after Snowstar. The slim silver-blue she-cat couldn't lie to herself. She always saw him stepping up after Snowstar, but now Mossheart had stepped in. A small bubble of rage burst in the Waterclan she-cat's chest. How dare Mossheart deny Goldeneye the right to be leader! Anger roared in the young apprentice's emerald eyes as she gazed at Mossheart on the Lightningclan branch. Goldeneye should be leader. He could do it thousands of times better then Mossheart could.
Shadowfire's whiskers twitched with boredom as news of Mossheart taking over Lightningclan was told. His pale green eyes flicked from each cat that he could see the face of, and tried to hold back a small mrrow of laughter at their reactions. Some accepted, and had small stars in their eyes. While others had roaring flames of rage hidden inside them. You didn't need the powers of a medicine cat to see this, and maybe that was the thing Shadowfire saw enjoyable. But....what was is opinion on it? To be honest, the Fireclan tom really didn't care. It wasn't his clan that was having this issue, and as long as there were five clans in the forest, and each clan could evenly be fed, Shadowfire was happy.
OOC: Not all my cats could agree, but I bet you would never have expected sweet little Pondpaw to be the resentful one. XD

OOC: Suprise attack...whoa! IC: Mossheart was relieved that the leaders and cats did not object-at least, out loud. "That's all there is to be reported. LightningClan has been doing well and prey is running smoothly like always." Taking a step back, her tail twitched nervously as she waited for the next leader to speak. Spottednose looked in awe as Mossheart gave her speech. A feeling of approval and discomfort came through her. She was excited that her cousin was going to be the leader in LightningClan, yet she couldn't help but looked worried as some of the warriors were fighting their anger within themselves. She sighed, whatever that was going to happen was in the path of StarClan. Turning her gaze off of Mossheart as she finished, her gaze drifted towards Treestar and she couldn't help but feel uneasy as Treestar was giving her a 'look' that she couldn't quite understand. A panicked thought suddenly errupted her. Is Treestar's symptoms coming back again? She wanted to ask the question to him instantly out loud. But she knew that if she did, the whole clan would know about his sickness. Fighting herself like the other, she fidgeted for the gathering to end.

OOC: wow. xP so suspenseful! =O btw, i totally forgot if Smokepaw was in this thread. @_@ and i guess the plot died....... im SO confused right now.... everything's prosponed. X.x"
IC: Burningstar nodded and stood up after Mossheart was finished. although his head was full of wonder, he knew it wasn't his place to question what the decisions came out to be. "thank you Mossheart" he meowed and went on with the normal news of Fireclan. (i don't know what's going on so...... *skips*) "And all is well" he finished his reports and sat back down. looking up at the sky, he noticed that the moon was getting low, and a small light started to appear. he hadn't noticed that this Gathering took so long, with the enourmous news from Lightningclan and all, they lost track of time. he hoped the other leaders would hurry up so dawn won't break before this gathering was over.
Smokepaw glanced at Pondpaw with a questioning look. tonight, somehow, was one of the few times he felt alright with so many cats around. he was glad that he was getting better at controlling his urge to take over other cats' souls. or so he thought. but tonight, under the eery moon, he felt fine. Pondpaw, however, didn't look that great. she looked like she wanted to dig her claws into someone. "what's up?" he asked in a hushed whisper. he didn't htink much about the lightningclan situation, because he didn't really care. all he was worried about was the protection of his own clan, and the ones he cares about... and love.
Snowstep smiled to herself as Mossheart finished her speech. she was glad that most cats had quieted down by now, and inside her head she silently cheered for her good friend. You can do this, Mossheart. I believe you.

OOC: Agreed. So, according to me, we only need Thawpelt to speak. Hopefully, we'll be finished before the gathering on the 15th.

OOC: Thawpelt is representing Skyclan? I guess then he better speak! XD
IC: Thawpelt felt the flush of embarrasment rush over him as he took each step out more on the branch. Even his father, Treestar, was watching him intently. The oddly colored tabby tom was sadly aware of the number of times he has had to be up here, representing Skyclan. With a sudden jult, the realization of how weak that must make the clan look came to him. Puffing up his chest in a attempt to look just as strong as the other leaders, Thawpelt looked down at the cats bellow. "Skyclan is doing as well as we can get with our leader and deputy as they are. There is really nothing new to report." Thawpelt took a few steps back, and tooked at each leader in turn. Hopefully nothing will happen to Wolfstar and the deputy so there would be a proublem like in Lightningclan.
Pondpaw felt a small rush of releif as Smokepaw's words came to her ears. So much so that the silver-blue she-cat just wanted to dump her heart out into his paws. "Arn't you angry that Mossheart just stepped right over Goldeneye and took the leader spot?" Pondpaw mewed bluntly in a hushed mew.

Burningstar stood up again after Thawpelt finished his short report. "This gathering is over." He finished up and climbed down the tall oak tree to gather up his clan and head back to their own boundaries. It was getting late; or early since the sun was almost about to rise. The darkness and the moon was slowly being replaced by the lighter, clear colour of the brightening sky.
Goldeneye breathed out in relief as the cats turned their attention away from the tree, and himself. he was glad this was finally over, and hoped that next time this won't be such a hot topic to gossip about. The golden-brown tom stood up and waited for Mossheart to come down to organize LightningClan; now HER clan.
Smokepaw glanced around for a second after Burningstar announced the end of the gathering, then turned back to Pondpaw. "Well, maybe they have their own reasons" he answered, keeping his calm as all the other cats started hurrying about to find their own clanmates. "you can never know what problems other people have unless you step into their body for a day." he gave the pretty silver-blue she-cat his lop-sided grin that he only used when he was in a good mood.

Hopping down the branch with dignity. Now accepted by all five clans, she could feel a surge of relief and responsibilty overtaking her. Seeing that Goleneye was waiting for her, she walked ahead of him and stopped. All around her, cats were rising up and stretching themselves after the long gathering. Turning to her clan-which most of them were waiting for her, she signaled her tail for LightnigClan to leave the oak once again.

OOC: Pikeru come back to us! =O read top post if u didnt. xP
IC: The dark ginger leader shared a few words and goodbyes to his friends and the other leaders, then Burningstar scanned over the assembled cats of FireClan, nodded once, then bounded back towards their own territory.
Goldeneye looked around the oak once more before following after Mossheart back to Lightningclan.

OOC: So Smokepaw CAN do nice!!! XD
IC: Treestar gave a small grunt as he landed awkwardly on the hard ground below the giant oak. His chest and shoulders were feeling a bit stiff, so the Earthclan leader desided to gather his clan quickly and head back. With a swift flick of his tail, Treestar summoned Earthclan to follow him back to their camp. The news of Snowstar's retirement will spread quickly to the cats who could not come.
Thawpelt raced quickly down the tree's trunk, and off past his fellow clanmates. The oddly colored tom dare not call them to follow, for he felt odd enough having to speak for them. I'm not leader...so they shouldn't treat me like one. Nor should I act like one. Thawpelt explained in his head. Though the tom had made up his mind, some cats still fell in behind him as they traveled back to Skyclan territory.
With a small sigh, Pondpaw tolled her tongue over her shoulders in order to get the fur to rest once more. The silver-blue she-cat locked her emerald gaze with Smokepaw's, and gave him a small smile. "I guess...though I still think that Goldeneye would do a million times better a job then Mossheart at being leader." Pondpaw added, still in a hushed tone. Her smile broke as she gave a small sigh, and broke her gaze from his. Noticing Froststar padding away with the rest of the clan, Pondpaw jumped to her paws, and bounced a few steps before looking over her shoulder at Smokepaw. "Coming?" She asked, letting her tail curl in amusement at his slowness.
