Goldstar lead his cats into the clearing of their camp, taking his time to reach the Highroot and climb atop it to address his Clan. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey,” he called, “join here beneath the Highroot for a Clan meeting." The fluffy tom then sat back, groomed a forepaw with a thoughtful expression, and watching as his cats gathered.
Rootpelt had followed close to her Leader and settled just below the Highroot.
Sunfeather lagged behind the returning cats, keeping close to her apprentice, Dragonmoon.
((New members welcome to enter ICly at this meeting. -- If there is a character of mine you’d like to interact with but I haven’t posted an entrance for please feel free to approach them ICly as if I had! I have too many characters (my fault entirely) to post an entrance for each at every Clan meeting but ICly they would have attended. At least this one since the only one not in camp would be my current Moonguard. I‘m only posting the current most important characters such as Clan Leaders and such. (I‘ll be glad when I pass on these potions! Ug, too many Leaders!) In the future I may list OOCly which cats are attending and which are not in addition to a few IC entrances. If any of that made sense.))

((OOC|Makes perfect sense Shell! Same goes for my characters, if I don't enter them all.))
Opaleye, tired after the long journey over the rough ground to Silverview, gratefully sat down in front of the Highroot. The odd-eyed white's fur was slightly fluffed out, a sure sign something was bothering her.
More Rootclan cats began to appear at Goldstar's call. From the higher reaches of the tree came the young medicine cat Echorain and the new apprentice Phoenixpaw, silver tabby and red tabby-and-white coats clearly visible against the drab colours of bark and leaf.
Silvershine and Dawnfrost joined them on the ground, smiling and exchanging quick greetings to Echorain, who was their sister. Jetfire and Ironhide, another pair of silver brothers, padded in from the edge of camp and took seats in the back - Jetfire in particularly was tall enough to see over the heads of practically every other Rootclan cat. A gang of apprentices including Gambitpaw, Sagepaw and Wildpaw bounded down from the old oak, murmuring among themselves and curiously looking up at Goldstar.

Dragonmoon was a little behind her mentor, towards the back of the returning Clan. She winced lightly with each step. The colour-point's twisted and useless leg was bothering her greatly after the long journey to and from Silverview, and the joints were stiff and sore.
With a huff, the Head Medicine Cat Apprentice settled down below the Highroot, twisting around to lick at her stiff hindleg. "Next time, I'm staying in my comfortable nest and you can take one of the younger apprentices on that accursed long trip." the cream she-cat purred jokingly to her mentor.

Bronzefur quickly sat as close as he could to the Highroot. He sat still as a stone while he waited for the announcement. He and his father WERE at the Gathering, of course, but still- Bronzefur knew his father had a better shot at being deputy and Bronzefur needed to show him he was ready for anything. --- Pinefoot sat casually, licking a paw. "Bronzefur," he said. "There's no competetion, really. I'm still young, and you've barely been a warrior for a moon. Just relax and watch the new deputy made." Pinefoot did hope this wasn't about a new deputy- he hadn't done much in the past few days besides his regular duties.

The light ginger tabby slipped up to sit beside Silvershine and Dawnfrost, her tail curling neatly around her paws. "Sure was a quiet night back at camp." Maplesong commented, ears twitching. "Not that I'm ungrateful, of course." She added hastily, fearing to be misunderstood.

((OOC| Bronzefur, what's all this about announcing a new deputy? At this exact point in time, Rootpelt is still Rootclan deputy. Also, Bronzefur and his father cannot have been at the Gathering. It was an actual event that was roleplayed and its history cannot be changed.))
Phoenixpaw grinned at Dragonmoon. She had great admiration for the older she-cat who at this stage in her training was looked upon as a full medicine cat, even though she was still technically Sunfeather's apprentice. She hoped she'd have that sort of strength someday. "You must mean me - I'm the only younger apprentice than you right now!" She said, eyes full of mischief.
Opaleye was sitting just in front of Bronzefur and Pineclaw. Her ear flicked sharply - Rootpelt had been her mentor. "Rootpelt made the journey just fine. She's likely to be deputy for some time yet, and you should show better manners than to argue over her position." She growled, giving her snowy tail a single lash.
Silvershine smiled at Maplesong and flicked her lightly with her tail-tip. "Our turn next Gathering, eh Maplesong?" The slim she-cat said in her sweet voice. Dawnfrost puffed up his chest. "I'll make sure those muddy Tunnelclan cats keep their distance from both of you!" His blue eyes gleamed at the though. Silvershine gave the tinest of eyerolls and leaned closer to Maplesong to whisper to her. "We'll try to leave him behind."

Dragonmoon smiled back at young Pheonixpaw, chuckling softy. "Yes I suppose that means you, after all. You haven't been to a Gathering yet, have you?" she purred, cuffing her ear lightly.

((So, we're allowed to post if our character's been accepted? )) Flamestorm walked out of her den, her head and ears bent down in weariness. She was a tad cranky from lack of sleep, she had stayed up most of the night waiting for the clan to return, and had only been asleep for a few moments. "Greetings, Dragonmoon." She said, stifling a yawn, "How did the gathering go?"

((Yes, Flamestorm, everyone’s welcome to post here who have been accepted. ^^ ))
Goldstar suddenly cleared his throat, quieting his cats and raised to his large paws.
“Good hunting, everyone.”
He dipped his head to his clanmates then glances around at the cats he already heard murmuring about the Gathering.
“As some of you may have already heard, the Gathering was rather eventful. It seems great change is coming.”
A rumbling, comforting purr escapes his throat in response to any un-eased remarks from his cats who may feel threatened by the mention of change.
“I am sure our Clan will continue to prosper but we must all be prepared for the sake of being so. Now… the medicine cats spoke a new prophesy. One that was meant for all cat’s ears… I will recite it now… Let’s see…”
The large tom pauses to gather his memories.
"Like the seasons and leaves, change will come to pass. Faith and courage prevail - Stormy skies lie ahead."
Goldstar’s dark blue eyes scanned the sea of bodies.
“We are not completely sure what it means… However, if anything ‘odd’ happens report it to myself or Rootpelt. Now, any questions?”
Softpurr, a pure white, blue eyed she-cat moved slowly through the crowd as Goldstar spoke. She picked her way to Opaleye and sat quietly at her sister’s side.Once Goldstar fell quiet for questions she was the first to speak up. “Goldstar… What about the returning Moonguard? He did not arrive with the rest of the cats from the Gathering…”
Goldstar paused at the question then took a deep breath. “The returning Moonguards were late to the meeting... In fact they did not show at all.”
Worry lit the white she-cat’s icy eyes.
Goldstar gave Softpurr a reassuring nod. “I’m sure your brother will be fine… Now…” He looks over the cats again. “Any other questions?”

Phoenixpaw squeaked slightly and gave Dragonmoon a friendly headbutt, still young enough to be playful - but she settled down the instant Goldstar started speaking. She was respectful first, a half-grown kit second.
Opaleye flashed her older sister a quick smile and flicked her with her tail-tip She shared her worries about Dreamguard - he was their big brother, and looked out for the family now their parents were with Starclan. Her ears twitched lightly and she tilted her head, gazing up at Goldstar. "What precautions should we be taking in day to day activities for this great change?" She asked in her quiet tones, which she was good at projecting, so that even though she spoke without a loud voice it carried to every cat there.

((OOC| Taking over from shell))
Goldstar drew himself up on the Highroot, looking down on his beloved clan with worry in his eyes. They were the old tom's entire life... and now Starclan promised more trouble than they may have ever faced.
"No kits are to leave camp alone. Apprentices must be accompanied by a warrior." The familiar precautions came easily to him. "And keep yours eyes and ears open." He flicked his tail to signal the end of the meeting, and sprang to the ground. Suddenly, he felt very weary.
