[Includes Prophecy; this was really fun to write! ]
"Yes, LightFrost, gather all of SpiritClan." a soft voice echoed off cavernous walls of invisible rock.
A pale cream she-cat with starry fur silently padded off into the haze, her fluffy tail dragging in the dirt.
"And as for you-" the voice sighed again "-Just keep watching over the forest. your doing the best you can."
A faded calico she-cat with once shining yellow eyes noded glumly, turned, and padded off in another direction.
"Ah, CrackedEarth, It's been quite awhile since our last gathering, nice to see you." the voice bounced off unseen walls once again.
A huge gray and white tabby tom stumbled toward RainStar, old age visible in every hair on his pelt. As he came into a better view RainStar searched for the warm gaze she used to be welcomed with when they met, but to her dismay, his eyes had turned to a delicate gray, almost matching his pelt.
"It's almost sickening to see-" CrackedEarth was cut off by a bout of coughing. when he recovered he began again. "It's almost sickening to see then clans in this kind of shape... and it's going to get harder this Leaf-bare... with a prey shortage like no cat has ever seen... and a blizzard that will threaten their existance, along with ours... EclipsedStar must be delt with before the first snow fall... or it will be too late for the clans... And a new threat will come like a wave of death... Shall I send a prophecy to some... young cats?" The wise old cat finished up, nearly gasping for breath, he had clearly not spoken so much in a very long time.
"Yes that would be wonderful, but that's what our meeting is about. As you know I'm holding a gathering of SpiritClan, you might as well stay for that. Oh, and I'm sure WindStar will be here, why don't you share tounges and a story or two?"
He gave a small nod and RainStar thought she could almost see a little spark of color return to the old cat's eyes.
