WindClan, RiverClan and ShadowClan already arrived, and Dawnfur was eager to start the meeting, and to seee what Ravenstar had to say. Ravenstar joined the other leaders on the Greatrock, and Emberstar yowled for the meeting to start. A cat sat beside Dawnfur, not from ThunderClan. This was the cat who always came to Dawnfur at the Gatherings. Her name was Ravenfeather.
Ravenfeather spent half her time with Dawnfur, and half her time with Firestripe and Frostywind. Dawnfur wondered why Ravenfeather did that, she was from RiverClan. "Hi, Ravenfeather." I murmured. Ravenfeather nodded her greetings, and by then, the leaders started to speak. "I will go first." meowed Emberstar. "ShadowClan is thriving - prey is plentiful, and we have plenty of water this newleaf. More kits have been born, and more kits into apprentices." Emberstar began.
"Please welcome Darkpaw and Flamepaw as new apprentices, and we have three new warriors as well. Smokepaw is now Smokecloud, Featherpaw is now Featherfur and Ninjapaw is now Ninjamind." Murmurs of approval rose from the Clans. Emberstar nodded for Spottedstar to speak. "WindClan is doing well too," mewed Spottedstar.
"We have two new warriors - Stripedpaw is now Stripedshadow and Icepaw is now Icefrost." After mews of approval died down, Cheetahstar spoke. "RiverClan is well. We have two more apprentices, and one more warrior. Blackpaw and Glowingpaw, and Snowpaw is now Snowbird." More murmurs of approval came. Cheetahstar beckoned with her tail for Ravenstar to speak. "We have no new warriors or apprentices, but we have something that you don't."
Murmurs of shock and curiosity rose from all Clans except ThunderClan. "We, unlike you, we have Darkness." Yowls of protest rose from all Clans except ThunderClan. "You took in a blood-thirsty traitor?" yowled a ShadowClan cat. "Not a blood-thirsty traitor, and we didn't take him in! Darkness, come." Ravenstar growled. The black cat jumped onto the Greatrock and stood beside Ravenstar.
"I am Darkness," Darkness called. "You all should know me." Dawnfur rolled her eyes. "Darkness is weird." she muttered. Ravenfeather gasped. "You . . . you like Darkness?!" she gasped. She backed away to Frostywind. What?! I hate that mousebrained heap of fox dung! Dawnfur thought in rage. "First, let me explain my history." Darkness yowled.
Dawnfur was shocked, very shocked, about all that Darkness had done. "Your name should be Noheart!" yowled one cat. "No." Darkness retorted. "It should be Pureheart." Yowls of protest and disbelief rose from the cats, even from ThunderClan. "My history isn't what Ravenstar wanted me to tell you!" Darkness growled. "She wanted me to let you know that I'm helpful, and nice." Dawnfur rolled her eyes. "That I care for all cats."
"Yeah right!" Ravenfeather snarled. "I'm glad you agree with me. Let me tell you my tale of how I saved Frostywind." Dawnfur glanced at Ravenfeather, who looked shocked, but happy. "I'm finding out who Ravenfeather really is." Dawnfur murmured to herself. She backed over to Ravenfeather. "Ravenfeather," Dawnfur mewed. "Shh, not right now." Ravenfeather whispered. "Huh!" Dawnfur growled, and walked away.
Dawnfur didn't care how Darkness saved Frostywind, she was okay, and that's all that mattered. Dawnfur ignored the growls of disbelief and shock from the cats. "And that's why I brought Frostywind here to confirm what Darkness said!" yowled Ravenfeather, signaling with her tail for Frostywind to come up.

Did you know that Pureheart is a member of four different sites? Besides Darkness is a better name.

Really? Wow. And I didn't mean he's changing his name, he's just trying to tell them that he's good now.

Well it does not matter. As long as Pury/Pure/Pureheart does not see this. Which Pure will not since I have not told about this site.

EXCELLENT chapter! I can't wait to see what happens next, will Frostywind mention everything, like how at first Darkness took her prisoner, then she escaped, then he helped her back to camp?

Frostywind looked nervous, but she limped over to the Greatrock. But she didn't try to get up, she knew that she would just fall and injure herself. "What Darkness said is true. I met Darkness only a few nights ago. I was unaware of his treachery or anything, and I made friends with him. The next day I went to see him again. He welcomed me, then leaped onto this large boulder in the cave. He called DarknessClan together . . ." Frostywind paused to glance at Dawnfur.
"Cats came out of several places in the cave, I guess he does have a Clan. He announced that I was his prisoner." Frostywind's voice got quieter. "The cats attacked me and pushed me into a hole buried deep into the ground. I fell . . ." All Frostywind was remembering was the pain right now. "Like Darkness said, there was only a small pile of crowfood and a puddle of muddy water.. Cats werre looking down at me, laughing and glaring at me." Frostywind shuddered.
"Once all the cats were gone, I tried to get up. I was almost there." Frostywind mewed, her eyes widening as if she forgot she was at Fourtrees. "I fell." Frostywind shook her head and continued, "I was in pain. I was bleeding, there was what seemed like a puddle of blood from where I fell, but I tried again anyway. I made it that time, and I tried to get to the exit of the cave, when Darkness saw me. He went over to me and offered to help, and so I agreed."
"He helped me back to camp, and that's all that happened." Frostywind muttered, shrinking back into the crowd of cats. Ravenstar examined the cats as if she was expecting one of them to say something. "And what exactly is the point of proving this to us?" asked Emberstar. Ravenstar snorted.

"Maybe you'd like to take Darkness in again?" she sneered. "Darkness is a very strong and brave warrior. He's loyal to his friends, and will protect them. Most of the darkness in his heart is gone now, and he will protect your Clan." "Never! ShadowClan will never accept that traitor!" Emberstar growled. "Why not?" asked Ravenstar. "You're a traitor yourself." Emberstar winced. Frostywind was confused. Emberstar was the leader of ShadowClan since she was born.
"May I remind you that you used to be a ThunderClan cat who was stolen? You wished to come back, and then when you became deputy and despised ThunderClan." Ravenstar snarled. "Quit fighting." Spottedstar meowed. Ravenstar bowed her head to him. "I'm sorry." she murmured. Emberstar just glared at them. "I'm not taking in Darkness, besides he leads DarknessClan." Emberstar rolled her eyes.
This time, Darkness spoke. "Please, Ravenstar, Spottedstar, Cheetahstar, please help me. I need to get rid of those loners and rogues who've been with me!" Darkness begged. "I'll help." Ravenstar mewed. "Me too." Spottedstar agreed, walking up to stand beside Ravenstar. "I'll help as well, if you wish." Cheetahstar mewed, taking the other side of Ravenstar.
Frostywind knew Darkness would betray those loners and rogues, they forced him to be their leader anyway. "Thank you." Darkness bowed his head to the three leaders. Emberstar growled. "I wouldn't bargain with him if I were you!" she hissed, and she leaped off of the Greatrock. "ShadowClan, we are leaving!" she yowled. All the ShadowClan cats followed their leader away from Fourtrees.
Darkness jumped off of the Greatrock as well. "I'll be seeing you!" he mewed up to Ravenstar. "Stop!" Ravenstar yowled. "Where do you think you're going. As far as I'm concerned, you're almost a ThunderClan warrior. Stay." Darkness was shocked, but he went over to stand with Dawnfur, who growled and walked over to Ravenfeather and Frostywind.
Frostywind glanced over at Darkness who smirked. "Ravenfeather," Dawnfur mewed. Ravenfeather glanced over at Dawnfur, and Frostywind went to stand beside her sister. "Yes?" Ravenfeather replied. "I wanted to know why you spend so much time with me, Frostywind and Firestripe." Dawnfur mewed. Frostywind realized Dawnfur was right, although she didn't mind the company of that RiverClan cat.
Ravenfeather sighed. "Get Firestripe, he must hear this too. And Duskshadow, please." Frostywind bowed her head. "I'll go get them!" she ran off and searched for Firestripe. He was with Duskshadow near the Greatrock. "Firestripe, Duskshadow!" Frostywind called, running over to them. "Yes?" asked Duskshadow. "Ravenfeather wants to see both of you." Duskshadow's ears pricked as he heard the name 'Ravenfeather'.
Duskshadow ran over to Ravenfeather and Dawnfur, Firestripe and Frostywind following. "Ravenfeather!" Duskshadow called to the black RiverClan cat. He stopped a few mouse lengths away from her. "Hello!" he purred, "Frostywind told me you wanted to see us?" Ravenfeather nodded. "Frostywind, Firestripe, Dawnfur . . ." Duskshadow murmured. "I'm your mother." Ravenfeather finished.
"You're not our mother, mousebrain!" Firestripe snarled. "Nightflower is our mother." Frostywind mewed politely. "No, Ravenfeather is telling the truth. She is your mother, and I am your father." Duskshadow mewed. "And you gave us to ThunderClan?" growled Dawnfur. "Yes, with your father. Look, if I kept you in RiverClan, cats would question me on who their father was." Ravenfeather replied.
"Well, why didn't you tell us earlier?" snarled Firestripe. Frostywind sighed. She hated fighting. She began walking away when Duskshadow mewed, "Frostywind, where are you going?" "I don't like fights. I'm going to see Wolfshadow and Dragonflower. Good bye." Frostywind mewed, and continued to walk over to her friends.
"Hello Wolfshadow, Dragonflower, Autumnwing." Frostywind greeted gently. Her friends greeted her back, and they shared tongues for a while. Frostywind felt a nudge on her shoulder and turned to see a brown tabby with amber eyes. "Hawkstripe!" Frostywind purred. "I'll see you later, Wolfshadow, Dragonflower, Autumnwing." Frostywind mewed, walking away with Hawkstripe.
"How are you?" asked Frostywind. "I'm fine, along with all of RiverClan. As usual, plenty of fish." Hawkstripe mewed. Frostywind nodded. "It must be great to be a warrior of RiverClan . . ." she mewed. "It is. But I've always dreamed of being in ThunderClan." meowed Hawkstripe. "So, how has Ravenfeather been?" asked Frostywind. "She's fine, why?" Hawkstripe replied.
"She just told me and my siblings that she is my mother. Hawkstripe was shocked. "Really? And you always believed that Nightflower was your mother . . ." he muttered. Frostywind nodded, and was about to say something when a yowl interrupted her. "We just realize how late we are, our Clans might be getting worried. ThunderClan, we are going back!" Ravenstar yowled.
Frostywind gave Hawkstripe's ear a quick lick. "Bye, Hawkstripe! I'll see you at the next Gathering!" she meowed as she went to join her friends. "WindClan is going too." called Spottedstar, the WindClan leader. "RiverClan, there isn't a point in staying here, we must leave." Cheetahstar mewed loudly. The three remaining Clans set off in the direction of home.
Frostywind wondered what the three leaders were discussing for them to be so late to return. It must've been important, thta's for sure. "Dawnfur!" Frostywind called, running over to her sister. "So, are you still mad at Ravenfeather?" "Yes." growled Dawnfur. "She gave us away for one thing, and even if she did have to, she could have told us earlier!" "Much earlier." added Firestripe coldly who appeared beside Dawnfur.
"Well you should just learn to forgive and forget." hissed Frostywind, going over to join Darkness. "So, what were the leaders talking about that took so long?" she asked. "Plans on what to do with the loners and rogues, that I used to lead." Darkness answered. "Can you name some?" Frostywind replied. "Smart Spottedstar suggested me going back to DarknessClan and announcing to attack, but I fight on this side." Darkness mewed.
Frostywind just nodded. "Ravenstar said we should just attack them. I don't think that's such a good idea." growled Darkness. "Okay. What did Cheetahstar suggest doing?" asked Frostywind warmly. "Suggests we should trick them somehow. Cheetahstar and Spottedstar are coming to visit us to discuss ideas on tricking them, and more plans. We might have a vote. I'm certainly voting Spottedstar's idea. You?" Darkness asked. "Well, I'd have to hear the other ideas they make. But probably Spottedstar's plan." Frostywind murmured.
Darkness nodded, and they walked side by side the rest of the way to ThunderClan. "What took so long?" asked Moonpaw, running up to the group. "We were discussing plans - look, I'll explain it later." Ravenstar groaned, walking straight to her den. Only then did Frostywind realize how tired she was. She padded over to the warriors den to sleep. She curled up in her soft, dry nest of moss, and soon she drifted off to sleep.
It was sunhigh when she awoke the next day, and when she walked out of her den, she realized that Spottedstar and Cheetahstar were already here, talking together with other senior warriors of each Clan. She scanned the warriors in search of Hawkstripe, and saw him beside Mossfire, a RiverClan white tabby she-cat.
"Phoenixfire, what do you think?" Frostywind heard Spottedstar ask a red-orange she-cat. Frostywind sighed and decided to go out hunting. She was about to walk over to the camp exit when she saw the tail of Dawnfur disappearing. "May as well follow her." Frostywind purred quietly. She pelted over to the exit and followed Dawnfur's scent.

Yeah, well I guess that's all for now. ;D ;D ^^
