RiverClan Skyridge

Honeyfang glared at everyone. EVERYBODY SHUT THE HECK UP AND LET SKYSTAR TALK!!

[bailu]

Hazelstorm watched the mess unfold and felt angry at Oaksong. How could she say such disrespectful things? Such an irritating blowhead. Cloverpaw was her granddaughter too, maybe idiotic qualities ran in the family. Besides, Mistypaw was hurt, so clearly Oaksong was a jerk.

That warrior had probbly never felt the pain experienced after a death of a loved one. So Oaksong was one to talk when she didn't know what it felt like.

[stardust.]

Oaksong had the urge to do something, make something disappear, she just needed to do something. She decided not to stop talking about her clanmates, "Wormbite, Gingerfrost, and Blizzardwind, you disappeared for a long time without ANY commitment to KittyClan" She mewed, Why do I have to do this? She thought, It was Duskflight's orders, she's targeting me now too She thought. "NOW, ON A REQUEST FROM DUSKFLIGHT" She breathed in and out, "I am leaving this meeting. In fact, I am leaving RiverClan until it isn't full of kittypets" She spoke, and finally, she headed out of camp.

(Oaksong has left)

Spottedspirit smiled and padded over. she felt much different, now that she was pregnant.

She stretched and walked over to the meeting rock, and looked at the leader. Was this the meeting for the new deputy?

**Codwhisper**

The spotted tabby tom bounded into the clearing, pausing just inside the camp entrance as he shook water droplets from his pelt. He hadn't slept well since the gathering. He was endlessly fascinated by Shadowclan and even more so after the display at the Gathering. For all their ominous reputation, there'd been only a single fatality during the entire takeover. That felt...unfitting for all the rumors about Dawnstar's mercilessness. He settled into a restless sit as he turned to face Skystar. He still missed Kestrelstar and seeing another cat sitting in his place felt wrong but he knew he'd have to accept the reality.

His attention was pulled by Oaksong speaking up a d commotion erupting in the clearing. He sighed but didn't try to keep up with everything. Oaksong was throwing a fit and everybody else was getting defensive. Codwhisper couldn't find enough interest in any of it.

**Doeheart**

Her mind was in a fog as she padded across the clearing, settling back to hear Skystar's meeting. She hoped the meeting would contain little out of routine: naming a new deputy, apprentice and warrior ceremonies. Unfortunately, it wasn't long until a new commotion began in the clearing. Doeheart tucked her legs beneath her and laid down to wait everything out.

[Silverfur & Co]

Snowstripe watched all this unfold as featherspirit padded in from a hunt. They kept to themselves lately but snowstripe could see feather pelt ruffle. They tried to stay busy most of the time. Featherspirit had enough and catercrawl out "Listen some of our leaders may have been soft hearted but had good hearts. We don't need a war with dawnstar yet unless she starts attacking cats out on our territory. Keeping defenses up is fine. Every leader and deputy as well as mentors we have had deserve to be in our memories if you can't honor our fallen oak then your the kitty pet here not everyone else." Featherspirit spat.

[Estelle]

Was it seriously so hard to have one meeting, one gathering, without someone starting some form of chaos? Honestly. As much as he was avoiding getting involved, it seemed that someone decided to involve him and some others after all. Seriously? This was exactly what he wanted to avoid. Although, she was spouting more nonsense than anything. How were they supposed to show commitment when they were taken away? He wanted to ignore it, he really did, but her baseless accusation just rubbed him too wrong and even if he wanted to avoid getting involved in the chaos, it didn't mean he could just let her walk over him and his clanmates.
"At least we came back,"
He retorted pointedly, though didn't bother raising his voice. She wasn't worth it. And it would probably be pointless in face of someone so thick-headed anyway.
"That already shows much more commitment to the clan than you are showing right now."
With a huff he turned back to the Streamstone. He didn't care whether she heard him or not, he said what he had to say however brief it was and what mattered is that Oaksong was leaving. Perhaps the meeting could proceed calmly now that the chaos causing kit escorted herself out. Unless someone else decided they needed to throw a hissy fit, though he doubted that was the case.

[ @StarWatcher - Just for reference, know Oaksong already left ]

( Snowleap | he/them | @poppy. )

➢ The tall dark-furred tomcat turned to look down at Birdpaw, seeing the young molly’s eyes watery and her cheeks drenched with tears. “Oh sweetheart…” He meowed in a hushed tone. However, before he could even comfort her, the Riverclan apprentice uttered a loud SHUSH that caught him off-guard. It was meant for Oaksong and it was more than deserved after all the disrespectful things that the shecat said to her and Mistypaw -- plus all the other cats that were called out. It didn’t take long for Birdy to become disgusted with her actions and recoiled with disgust. Snowleap sent a deadly glare Oaksong’s way, knowing this was her fault and then focused on consoling the youth. Birdpaw had other plans though and she exited the crowd, pleading sorries that broke the Riverclan shield’s heart. He wished poor Birdpaw could get a break.

As the ragdoll shecat then proceeded to stand up for herself to Oaksong, the long-furred tomcat stayed silent, allowing her to say what she needed to say. Then, she went back over to Mistypaw as the two of them slowly began to leave the meeting. He didn’t want it to be this way, but knew it was the best course of action. But as that happened, Birdpaw looked back at him and the two met eyes. “You’re not hopeless, Birdy, I promise.” Snowleap said, but she was already gone, keeping close to Mistypaw. As soon as they left the scene, his lips peeled back into a snarl and he spun on his paws to look at Oaksong. Blizzardwind, his dear mentor, was already giving her a piece of his mind. Good. He gave a curt nod to his mentor and sat down, letting him handle it. Then, just like that: Oaksong was gone, claiming that she was done with this clan and would be leaving. “Good riddance.” They hissed under their breath, almost being tempted to get one last sly remark in, but decided they needed to be the adult in this situation. At least it was over now and Riverclan could continue this meeting in peace. He took a deep breath and then looked back at Skystar. What would he say to all this? Probably be glad like the rest of them that Oaksong was gone. One less lunatic.

[stardust.]

Oaksong actually decided to come back, with one final cat to call out, "Snowleap" She mewed, taking notice of the shield like a kit taking notice of a game of mossball. "Out of all the meetings, have I seen you do any sort of that?" She asked the shield, "I have decided not to leave as it is not for the best of the clan, Blizzardwind, I understand that you have sent out patrols. Just, I have been hit hard by Cloverpaw's exile, she was my favorite cat in the whole wide world" She explained, "And while the things she did weren't her fault" Oaksong paused, recalling Duskflight, "She could have been an honorable apprentice if it wasn't for my daughter Duskflight"

(To clarify confusion, Oaksong decided not to leave when she realized that she had not called out Snowleap)
