branch. Blazestrike looked around for Moonsky. He then found her, talking to some LeafClan cats. Blazestrike padded over and greeted the 3 LeafClan cats.
"Hello, young Blazestrike." Stonetail meowed, smiling.
"Hi!" A apprentice chirped. "I'm Thistlepaw, it's my first gathering!"
"How are you Blazestrike?" Butterfly asked. She turned to Thistlepaw. "Hush, remember what Leafstar said." She then turned back to the SnowClan cats. "Excuse Thistlepaw here, he only became a apprentice a half-moon ago."
"Who's his mentor?" Moonsky asked.
"Oh, Wingbeat is. She's excited for her first apprentice." Butterfly meowed happily. She then glanced around. "I wonder where BloodClan are tonight. They genrally aren't this late."
"Maybe trying to get over their defeat." Blazestrike joked. Stonetail chuckled a bit and then sighed. "Oceanstar warned our clan shortly after we left the battle. They still want revange." He sighed sadly, tilting his head.
"Don't worry, SnowClan will always be there to help you." Deerleap meowed, padding over. She then smiled at Butterfly. "Hello! Haven't seen you for a while!" She chirped.
"Hi Deerleap." Butterfly mewed. "I'm looking after Wingbeat's new apprentice, it's his first gathering."
"Strange, I'm looking after Darkmystery's apprentice. It's her first gathering too!" Deerleap said brightly. She looked at Thistlepaw and smiled. "Hello. You must be Thistlepaw. I think I remember you at the battle yesterday, you were very brave."
"Well, thanks." Thistlepaw meowed shyly, looking embrassed. Moonsky laughed and Thistlepaw smiled a bit. A LeafClan elder padded over with a sour look on his face. "Apprantly there's another clan coming to the gathering tonight." He mumbled.
"What clan?" Blazestrike meowed in intrest.
"Don't ask me." The elder grumbled. He then padded off. Falconpaw then ran over, trembling with excitement. "When will the gathering start, Deerleap?" She asked.
"Soon." Deerleap replied, looking up at the sky.
"Who's that?" Thistlepaw asked, looking at the golden tabby she-cat.
"Oh! I haven't introduced her to you!" Deerleap explained. "This is Falconpaw, Darkmystery's apprentice. Falconpaw, this is Thistlepaw, Wingbeat's new apprentice. It's his first gathering too." Falconpaw exchanged a look with Thistlepaw and the both apprentices padded off. Stonetail chuckled again, but then stopped when the mystery clan arrived that the elder was talking about. Blazestrike looked up at the clan and reconised some of them. They were SkyClan!
"Excuse us, we'll explain everything once the meeting begins." Skystar meowed. She jumped up to one of the branches and waited paitently. Blazestrike gulped, but continted speaking to LeafClan cats. Bloodstar then arrived and everyone glared at him for being so late.
"Let the gathering begin!" Oceanstar cried. "RainClan are well, we have welcomed Stripedpaw, our newest apprentice. Sadly, we have lost a few cats during the 2 battles that have gone on since the last gathering. StarClan welcomed Thundertail, Ripplingwater and of course, Rainstar. Our new deputy is Tidalwave!" The RainClan cats yowled his name as the tom smiled and looked up at Oceanstar. The leader looked down at him and continued. "We know who killed Rainstar, but whoever killed Ripplingwater will pay with their life. LeafClan, we will hunt down your precious deputy and kill him as he killed our leader." She turned to Bloodstar. "I have finshed. Bloodstar?"
"Thank you Oceanstar. BloodClan are well, but Shatteredlark went missing during a dog attack. We are sad, but we have welcomed Deathmuzzle, our newest warrior!" Bloodstar meowed. BloodClan cheered loudly and chanted her name. Deathmuzzle looked happy with herself. Bloodstar silenced them and continued. "As my clan know, I took on a mate which costed me greatly. I didn't tell anyone else, but now it is time. The she-cat I took as a mate several moons ago was Snowstar." Many cats gasped in horror and everyone looked at Snowstar. SnowClan hissed loudly at Bloodstar, but he took no notice. He remained calm. "She said she loved me, and now she is expecting my kits. I know they will be half-bloods, but I don't care. I have now finshed, Snowstar?" He purred.
"SnowClan are well, sadly during the last fight Robineye was killed after giving birth. Shadowstep, our deputy, as you may have noticed isn't here tonight because he is greiving for the loss of his mate. We have welcomed Wildheart and Swiftlegs as warriors and Cloudpaw, Owlpaw, Falconpaw, Molepaw and Shrewpaw as apprentices!" Snowstar yowled. Nearly all of the cats yowled their names and the seven cats smiled. Snowstar hushed them and continued on. "We have also welcomed Gentlekit, Luckykit and Cloverkit, Shadowstep's kits that were lucky to surrvive the battle. I thank Spottedflower for taking them in for us. I'm finshed now, Leafstar?"
"Thanks Snowstar. LeafClan are weak and tired after the two battles, but we are becoming stronger. We have welcomed Thistlepaw as our newest apprentice! Sadly, our medcine apprentice, Fallenpaw, was killed by a BloodClan apprentice during the first battle. Softpaw is the new medcine apprentice of LeafClan!" LeafClan chanted her name happily. Leafstar hushed them. "We have sadly been hit with greencough, already 3 kits, 2 apprentices and 1 elder have died. I have finshed, new leader?"
"Em, thank you Leafstar. I am Skystar, leader of SkyClan. My clan and I are intrested in your ways of life. You patrol boarders, attend big meetings like this and many other things so completely diffrent to us. So, we would like to join you in this strong circle of clans and have our own territory." Skystar meowed. Many cats gasped and went into chatter. The 4 leaders hudled together for a talk.
"What are we going to do? We can't trust this clan!" Ocenastar spat.
"And there won't be enough prey to go around! This clan will stop us all from surriving!" Bloodstar growled.
"SkyClan are huge too! What if we don't give them enough territory? They could threaten to drive us all out!" Leafstar rasped.
"Settle down, all of you are acting like kits." Snowstar growled sternly. "I know this clan. They helped me and my own clan many times before."
"But what about us? They like you, but proberly not us!" Oceanstar protested.
"We have no option but to trust them. They don't seem cold-hearted killers, so we shouldn't have any worries." Snowstar sighed.
"You're a mouse-brain! Why bring in another clan unknown to nearly everyone? We have enough troubles!" Bloodstar hissed.
"And mouths to feed. Prey is becoming scarer, mainly during Leaffall, when Twolegs start cutting down trees and scareing the prey away from all 4 territories." Leafstar pointed out.
"Leafstar, you do have a point, but we can't just say no. They could try to drive us out for revenge anyway." Oceanstar mewed.
"Oceanstar's right. So, have we yet come to an agreement?" Snowstar asked.
"I think they can stay, but if they cause trouble we can drive them out together." Leafstar suggested.
"They could live in that patch of unused territory outside the BloodClan camp!" Ocenastar meowed.
"B-bu.." Bloodstar blurted out.
"Any objections Bloodstar?" Snowstar growled.
"No, of course not." Bloodstar mumbled.
"Good." The SnowClan leader turned to the panicing clans below. "Myself and the leaders have decided to allow this clan to stay, but any troubles and they are out." She turned to Skystar. "Bloodstar will show you where your camp will be." She mewed kindly.
"The Gathering is over!" Leafstar annonced. The 5 leaders jumped down to their clans and led them away. Blazestrike walked along with Swiftlegs and Moonsky. "Intresting Gathering tonight, huh?" He meowed.
"Yup, very." Swiftlegs agreed.
"I didn't think the leaders would deny their place in the circle of clans anyway." Moonsky mewed, rested her head on Blazestrike's shoulder. "Snowstar wouldn't obviously, SkyClan have helped us many times in the past."
"Yeah." Blazestrike agreed. Snowstar then walked off to the leaders den while everyone else padded off to their dens. Blazestrile yawned loudly and curled up in his nest. Moonsky followed him in and rested beside him. "Have a good sleep." She mummered, shutting her eyes.
"You too." Blazestrike purred. They both then fell asleep.
A new prophecy

"Come on, sleepy head! You've slept in! Come on, it's the ceromony!" A friendly voice mewed. Blazestrike groaned and got up. It was Moonsky. She laughed and nudged him again with her paw. Blazestrike got up and looked guilty. "Sorry, the kits were wailing like mad last night." He sighed.
"Which ones?" Moonsky asked, her whiskers twiching. "I didn't hear any."
"I don't know who was wailing, but I couldn't sleep at all." Blazestrike yawned. "We'd better get to that ceromony." The two friends ran towards the highrock and sat down. Snowstar looked down at her clan from the highrock. Now everyone was here, it was time to start.
"Ok, can Spottedflower's kits come up here please?" Snowstar asked. Streamkit and Blankkit rushed up, trembling with excitement. Snowstar smiled. "Until these cats have earned their warrior name, they will be known as Streampaw and Blankpaw. Squirrelfall will mentor Streampaw while Rainflower will mentor Blankpaw." The warriors padded up to their apprentices and touched noses with them. Snowstar continued on. "I kitted last night to 5. 2 toms and 3 she-cats. Myself and Badgerstripe have decided that the toms will be called Smokekit and Ashkit while the she-cats will be Rosekit, Dovekit and Pigeonkit. Blazestrike looked worried. Badgerstripe knew the kits weren't his, so why did he name them? He twiched his whiskers until Moonsky nudged him. "I need to speak to you after the meeting." She mummered. Blazestrike nodded and listened on.
"Final thing is about the kit rescuing. Fernwhisker and Morninghawk are greatful that Blazestrike for some reason saved the kits, but we all also thank Leafdew, Bearpelt and Moonsky for rescuing Blazestrike when he needed help." Snowstar mewed. Everyone looked at the 4 cats and yowled their names. Snowstar waited for the clan to settle down and spoke. "I have spoken with the 10 kits, apprantly they were playing a game of tag and got lost. I have spoken to the 2 queens also, they had no idea the kits woke up so early to play. All kits should know that they are not ment to leave the nursery without permission from the mother." The leader meowed. "Clan dismissed!" Blazestrike padded off towards a corner of camp, where Moonsky was waiting for him. She smiled and greeted him by licking his shoulder. "Hello Blazestrike." She purred, sitting down.
"You wanted to speak to me?" Blazestrike meowed, twinning tails with her.
"Yes, I did. I'm expecting your kits." Moonsky meowed.
"That's great!" Blazestrike purred in delight. Moonsky smiled and padded to the nursery. Blazestrike remained lost in thought for a while. How many kits would he and Moonsky have? What would they look like? He thought about his kits until Ivyfur came up to him.
"Hello Ivyfur! What are you doing here?" Blazestrike asked.
"StarClan have spoken to me. They told me something, it's about you." Ivyfur mumbled.
"Me?" Blazestrike mewed, tilting his head.
"Yep. You must travel to the Moonstone and speak with StarClan." Ivyfur meowed quietly.
"Alone?" Blazestrike gulped.
"No, you mouse-brain!" Ivyfur purred in amusement. "One cat will go with you, who will you choose?"
"Um, you if you're not busy? And perhaps Moonsky?" Blazestrike suggested.
"I can go, but Moonsky's expecting kits so it would be better if she stayed here."
