The sky is clear. Star pelt shines down on the clearing, making the great Dawn Tree shimmer silver as well as the water and grass below it. Slowly, cats start to filter in from Night Clan, then Mist Clan etc. They too, shine like Star Clan warriors.
Pantherstar padded in, her dark pelt shining like shadowed silver. Or granite in the moonlight. She led Night Clan into the grassy clearing and looked around carefully. The last time she had been here, she wasn't even deputy. Now she was leader. The same feeling of doubt pricked her fur but she flicked her tail to wash it away. They were first there, not suprisingly. She was pretty sure they had set off early, but it didn't matter. With a few leaps and bounds, she cleared the ground and stood on the gnarled branch of Dawn Tree. She looked down on the gathered cats and felt much calmer than she expected. With a contented sigh, she sat down and waited for the other leaders to arrive.

Willowstar slowly padded in, her tortioseshell fur shined in the bright light of the full moon. She looked unusualy confident, as if she had done this a million times before (even though this was her first gathering as a leader). Occasionly she would turn around to look at Pepperfleck. With one powerful leap she took her place on the branch of the Dawn tree next to Pantherstar. Bowing respectfully to the other leader she mewed "I hope the other clans come soon."

Pantherstar nodded to the other leader. "I don't think they'll be long," she yawned with a flick of her ear. "Well, hopefully soon, i'll have icicles growing off my tail before long." With a yawn, Pantherstar examined Willowstar. "Did Owlstar die? I'm sorry to hear it," she continued. "From what i've heard, Wave Clan's leader, Typhoonstar, joined Star Clan as well. Storm*** is leader now, and at 14 moons too."
Pepperfleck was oblivious to the looks and joined Darkfrost and Snowpaw. "Has Darkfrost not scared you off yet?" he asked Snowpaw in amusement.

Pantherstar nodded and crouched down, shuddering from the chilled air.

Stormstar bounded in with his Clan, his fur, like the others, had a look of silver to it. He raised his chin boldly and looked at the other leaders. He was nervous since he had only been here two times as an apprentice and he didn't remember going as a deputy. He padded to where the other leaders were and nodded. He felt a little small but he didn't mind. Stormstar thought about what happened at Gatherings, then wondered what to say. Especially in front of all these cats... (getting a little stage fright hehe x3)

Pantherstar nodded back, awkwardly. The other leader seemed nervous...

Stormstar flicked an ear and looked away from the crowd. If he was to be leader he shouldnt show fear in crowds. He then remembered his conversation with Honeypaw about how everyone was scared of something. He looked back at the crowd and his mind wandered to wondering what each cat might be afraid of.

Pantherstar washed her ears so she didn't freeze over or something.

Stormstar snapped out of his thoughts when Willowstar spoke. "Erm. Hello to you aswell," he replied, not really hearing much of what she said.

Willowstar rolled her eyes. "Don't worry about the gathering. It'll be fine when it starts."

Stormstar nodded. "I hope so." Even if Willowstar was a young leader too, he felt small and less important as them as if he were still an aprentice.
