 Silverstar [ Silverstar rushed hurriedly through the nursery entrance, her green eyes wild as she realized what time it was. They were going to be late to the Gathering if they didn't leave immediately! The silver she-cat yanked her fur away from the brambles, seizing a tight burr from her fur and yanking it out in a rush. She stumbled slightly as she tried to clean herself up while running for the Fernhill, leaping at the last moment to avoid careening into the grass. She let out a yowl, skipping over the meeting part. ]
"Cats going to the Gathering tonight are Moonblaze, Fadinghorizon, Thunderflight, Westshadow, Featherheart, Cedarbranch, Oakbranch, Whisperwind, Wilypaw, and Dustpaw!" Silverstar yowled, her eyes racing around the clearing. She had to leave some warriors at camp, seeing as border patrols still needed to be performed and hunting was expected.
[ Silverstar leapt down from the hill and waved her tail, plunging through the underbrush and leaping into a semi-fast lope across StormClan territory, listening behind her to make sure her warriors were following. Moonblaze Fadinghorizon Thunderflight Westshadow Featherheart Whisperwind XxPreussischePrinzessinxX Cedarbranch & Oakbranch Dustpaw Wilypaw

Cedarbranch and Oakbranch
[Cedarbranch and Oakbranch looked at each other triumphantly, bumping shoulders with a silent, "Yes!" before bounding after the beautiful silver leader. It was surely their charms that convinced Silverstar they could come along. Their irresistableness was just radiating. And there was no way in StarClan that either of the toms were going to let Silverstar live that down, whether it was true or not.]
[Soon, their long, lanky legs carried them to either side of Silverstar, their faces smug and lips pulled back in cheeky grins.]
"I bet we were on--" Cedarbranch started.
"--the top of your list to go the Gathering?" Oakbranch finished.
"Right?" the two said together.

Whisperwind Crush: Rustdawn / Personality: Sweet, Shy, Kind, Quiet / Fears: Wolves, Nighttime, Bloodspill / Clan: StormClan I KNOW THEY SAY, YOU CAN'T GO HOME AGAIN I JUST HAD TO COME BACK ONE LAST TIME THESE HANDPRINTS ON THE FRONT STEPS ARE MINE UP THOSE STAIRS IN THAT LITTLE BACK BEDROOM IS WHERE I DID MY HOMEWORK AND LEARNED TO PLAY GUITAR AND I BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW UNDER THAT LIVE OAK MY FAVIORITEDOG IS BURIED IN THE YARD "Uhm" She said softly as the she-cat was called. Whisperwind hadn't expected it, by how quiet she was, so unnoticed, Whisperwind thought for sure she wouldn't have been chosen. The low self esteemed cat padded towards the exit. She spotted a dark brown Tom. And shook her head. Whisperwind silently padded over to him. She looked him straight in the eye's, and spoke very silently. "Why aren't you excited about the Gathering?" She asked him, while racking her mind for his name. Until she received Westshadow. The pretty silver cat stared at him, she couldn't say much about what the feline had asked him. Nor was she so excited about the Gathering. THOUGHT IF I COULD TOUCH THIS PLACE OR FEEL IT THIS BROKENNESS INSIDE ME MIGHT START HEALIN' OUT HERE IT'S LIKE I'M SOMEONE ELSE THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I COULD FIND MYSELF

Dustpaw scrambled to his paws, sitting up and nodding. "Yes, Featherheart," he mewed.
[The patchy apprentice bounced to his paws, eager to get going. Dustpaw was so excited that he couldn't keep his haunches from wiggling. His eyes shone with untold excitement. His first gathering! Ever!]

Silverstar [ Silverstar, loping faster now, glanced aside at Cedarbranch and Oakbranch. She chuckled, her eyes warm. She was breathing a little harder, running a bit faster than she had for a time or two. She wasn't young anymore, that was for sure. Because she was getting a bit winded, all she responded with was a smile and a knowing sigh. Silverstar swiveled her ears to place the rest of her patrol: Featherheart and Dustpaw near the rear, Thunderflight somewhere in the middle. The pack ran alongside the lake now, moving as one in the fading twilight sky. The island was now in view; they were so late! At least, in Silverstar's mind, they were. Great StarClan, what had happened? ]

XX▄▄ But I will go on until the end
XX▄▄ I've lost my way, but I will go on until the end
XX▄▄ The final fight I'll win[Larka had been in the same den for who-knows-how-long, and she was completely bored out of her mind. One cat sat in front of the entrence, guarding her one escape to the outside world. The white she-cat rolled over and closed her blue eyes. She had heard something about some cats leaving for the gathering, Silverstar and her deputy included. The she-cat missed not being able to stare up at the full moon, something she used to do while on her own. She let out a sigh and pawed meaninglessly at the air. She ahd never been this bored in her entire life, not even when her old twolegs trapped her inside. Maybe choosing to be kept prisoner was a mistake.
She didn't have long to think on the topic when a loud clap of thunder sounded through the camp and Larka jolted to her paws. Blue eyes wide, she inched closer to the entrence to her den just in time to see the sky open up and rain race to the ground. The she-cat gasped and stepped back as the rain began to cause puddles to form at her feet. She glanced outside again and suddenly realized something. They were in a hole. Who ever had chosen the site for StormClan's camp had chosen unwisely. The camp wa slocate din a large hole in the ground, simply asking to be flooded in a rainstorm like this. Proof of it was already at her paws as the small puddles began to grow. She glanced at her guard, who seemed distracted by the rain, and found an odd feeling of determination setting in. Preparing herself for the worse, Larka pushed past her guard forcefully and into the hard rain. Thank StarClan there was no wind, otherwise they would be frozen to death.]
"Get back here! What are you doing?" her guard [NPC] hissed and Larka turned to face the cat.
"Helping your clan!" she yowled in reply.
[Good words, but how exactly was she going to help. She wasn't the leader, or deputy, or medicine cat, she wasn't even a member of this clan. She should be worrying about herself, not these strangers. But the rouge found herself unable to do so as the rain continued to soak her white pelt. She glanced once more at her guard, who was staring at her, before looking around at the camp. Puddles where quickly forming and it wouldn't be long until flloding started. They needed to reach higher ground, especially the kits and their mothers.]
"Everyone needs to get out of here now, before this place is flooded! Get to higher ground and stay there!" she yowled firmly over the rain, glancing at the remaining cats in camp. "Move! We don't know how long we have!"
[She knew she was no leader, no deputy, but she was a cat that had a plant and, right now, this clan needed to get out of camp. Without a second glance at whether her orders were being followed, the white she-cat dashed toward the nursery, water splashing as her paws landed in puddles. Her body was growing cold from the rain but she would worry about that later. Right now, she had some kits to move. Hopefully she wouldn't be too late and the nursery wouldn't already be flooded. She would never admit it, but the strong cat felt slightly panicked due to the rain. So many unpredictable things could happen and who knows what was happening at the gathering right now.]

The natural drainage system was already beginning to overflow; normally, the holes in the walles led to underwater caverns (to which no path had been found), but these had already filled up, and the drainpaths were beginning to leak with water. The ground was soaking as well.
I spotted Larka with my kittens and let out a hiss of relief, running up to her as she struggled up the rocky pathway that was now a mini-stream of water.]
"Oh, great StarClan, thank you!" I thanked her, panting heavily. "Let me help you!
[I grabbed Hurricanekit and Tempestkit in my jaws, swirling around. Usually, during a storm, we stored kittens in the leader's den, but this one was too violent. The path there would be too treacherous to climb.
I hope Moonblaze is safe, I thought, then immediately realized something.
The herbs!
I spotted Dustpaw running up to us.]
"Dustpaw!" I cried, setting my kits down and signaling for Larka to stop as well. "Dustpaw, help take the kittens to the Oak Tree Clearing. Spread the word-we'll take shelter there! It's higher up and the path there isn't too rocky. Help Larka carry my kittens! I have to go back and save the herbs!"
[I wheeled around without another word and dove back to the camp.]
"Everyone, head for Oak Tree Clearing!" I called as I went.
[I leapt into the medicine den, hurrying as I realized the water was up to my paws. I grabbed all the herbs I could find and rushed out, my mouth full of em. I froze, glancing around wildly. There was no safe place to put them; I would need my Clanmates to help me carry them!]
"StormClan!" I yowled, "Help me gather the herbs! We must salvage them!"
[I hoped they had heard me-I had to grab my herbs again lest they be swept away by the water at my feet...
((Edit: Just gonna pretend someone helped her. ))
[I ran with the herbs in my mouth, my fellow warriors helping me carry them. We made our way to the Oak Tree Clearing, trying our best to endure the rain. ]

[Dustpaw flattened his ears to his skull as Thunderflight gave him his orders: Take her kits to the Oak Tree Clearing. How far was that? Trembling with cold and fear, closing his jaws around Tempestkit's scruff, cold water running down his sides. The kit was a good sized kit, making it hard to keep his jaws closed around it's scruff.]
"Come on," he mewed around the kit's fur.
[Turning into the freezing rain, Dustpaw mostly closed his eyes, heading for the camp entrance. Would they reach their destination safely?]

She handed off two of the kits to their mother before continuing on toward higher ground. She flicked her tail and pushed on through the rain. Her paws slipped on the wet ground, cuasing the she-cat to almost fall multiple times. Her white pelt was now stained with mud and her paws had turned completely brown. She shivered slightly from the cold but refused to stop. Larka only came to a stop when Thunderflight motioned for her to. The rouge stared at the apprentice in front of her and nodded.]
"Come on, we need to get going," she mewed and pushed on the Oak Tree Clearing, glad she knew where it was due to ehr many expeditions into StormClan territory before being caught.

[I called, whimpering slightly. I didn't want to lose my sister, nor did I want to lose Burrpelt. I glanced down as Halokit pawed at my legs and sighed. I needed to protect my kits.

[Wilypaw snorted in silly glee at the announcement of the gathering. Ha! Ha, ha, ha! He was going! He was taking leave to an important event! Him! Wilypaw! The disgusting cat who regularly bathed himself in mud! Him! Leaping to his paws, Wilypaw did a quick assessment of himself. Hm... my coat could use some work...' His eyes narrowed as he look at his pelt. It was rather... Whiter than usual. The torrents of rain that had briefly struck him during the storm had made most of the dirt on his pelt run to the very bottom strands of his fur, leaving the top of his back a rather odd and unusual crispy white. Wilypaw made a face, then shrugged as an idea came to mind. 'I'll jus' make sure to slip a bit on the way up to the gathering.' Eyes lighting in remembrance of the gathering, he turned to watch Silverstar jump away from the hill and into the brush. ]
[Teeth bared in a rather demented Cheshire grin, Wilypaw took off after the others, his slick white and brown tail waving like a banner of victory behind him.]

Silverstar [ Silverstar rushed into camp, lungs heaving and regal fur dripping with mud. Her silver fur was stained brown, water dripping into her eyes. Her legs felt like they were going to give out at any moment, but her hardened resolve propelled her forward. She rushed into the already flooding camp, watching in amazement as her Clan seemed to just move into positions. She watched silently as Thunderflight barked out orders, feeling slightly replaced. Yes, she was growing old, but she had four more lives left! Silverstar's eyes darkened at her deputy for a moment, but she shook her feelings off roughly, reprimanding herself. Her deputy was supposed to be giving orders! But it seemed that Thunderflight was always quicker to announce a plan. Silverstar shook herself roughly, somewhat to get the water off, but mainly to shake these stupid thoughts from her head. Silverstar dove into the elders' den, pushing Wheatear and Dawnthistle, two of the more spry elders, int the rush to get to the oak clearing. Silverstar pushed her way deeper into the den to get the last elder, Grasshedge (NPC), to follow Wheatear and Dawnthistle. The two younger elders supported the cranky tom between them and hustled toward the exit. Silverstar spotted a bright orange pelt streaking toward Thunderflight, the cat's white tipped tail streaming out behind her. The cat, Miraclesky, as Silverstar recognized her, immediately took some of the herbs from Thunderflight. Silverstar hurried all the cats out of the clearing, leaving herself alone in the flooding clearing. She let the rain streak down her fur, standing momentarily in the drenching rain. She felt the torrents threatening to wash her legs out from underneath her. The weeping skies seemed to calm the silver leader, expressing her torment of inner emotion. Silverstar raised her head to the sky, letting the rain smack against her skull. With a deep breath, Silverstar slushed toward each of the dens, checking inside each to make sure no one was left behind. Nursery: check. Elders den: check. Warriors' and apprenctices' den: check. And finally, the medicine den. Silverstar stuck her nose inside and noticed one more pakcage of herbs, and by the smell of it, it was catmint. Silverstar leapt into the den and grabbed the floating bundle, praying to StarClan that the coveted herb wasn't ruined. The water was up to her chest. Silverstar battled her way out of the den, emerging into the downpour. The silver cat finally began her journey to the entrance, her paws working to find holds. Eventually, she found she had to swim. Her head struggled to keep above the surface, while trying to keep the herbs safe. Finally, her paws found the Fernhill. Silverstar leapt upon it, watching as her beloved camp slowly filled with water. As of now, their stone walled camp seemed powerful and fortifying. But it was also a bowl. It filled easily. Silverstar gazed at the entrance, her green eyes becomign slightly panicked. The entrance tunnel was at low ground. the tunnel was full. Silverstar was trapped.
Hurriedly, the silver leader spun in a circle on the hill. There HAD to be a way out! Panic rose in Silverstar's throat as water seeped into her very bones and startled her shivering into uncontrollable shaking. Silverstar closed her eyes, opening her thoughts to StarClan. There had to be a way out. And panic wouldn't help. Silverstar took a few deep breaths, then opened her eyes. She spin slowly, her eyes searching the walls. Much of it was too high. But wait! Silverstar's eyes narrowed as she spotted a very narrow passageway that led upward from the apprentices' den. It was a way out! It would be a squeeze, but it was a way out! Silverstar picked her way down he hill carefully, her paws sliding in the mud. The leader moved fluidly, keeping her head and the herbs as far above the water as she could. After what seemed like an eternity of bone chilling cold, Silverstar found a slick pawhold. Carefully, Silverstar picked her way up the slope. Her paws slipped numerous times; each time a fresh wave of panic struck the silver cat. She was sure her Clanmates would be worried about her by then. But she pushed onward. Her limbs were nearly useless. They were worn out and she was exhausted, and she was surely going to catch a cold.
