FlameClan
Buzzardstar had enough, she let her claws slide, a dark gleam from her eyes, "don't you dare try to emotionally manipulate me into giving you, my clan, you pile of fox-dung," she snarled rage laced in her voice, "do you think Firetail was lying when he stated that he scented ForestClan on my side of the border, do you think he was lying when he reported that a nest of squirrels just so happen be disturbed and there just so happens to ForestClan scents on my territory," she growled, "you seen to so wise, add it up." In her mind she didn't want to bring any of her warriors into this, but she knew that she could barely control herself when she snapped, which she had forced herself into a life of pacifism, she knew that it because she anger she had twice went too far in battle and murdered two warriors.

ForestClan:
Darkeyes eyes opened wide in horror, she finally realized what would happen if the Clan leaders lost their tempers here. She leaned to Lightningfoot, her fur bristling. "I have to tell them the truth! I have to explain what happened!" She whispered anxiously, she couldn't like other cats pay for her mistake, and she hadn't even stolen prey! "We can't let a fight happen at a Gathering!" She hoped the tom would support her, and she hoped she could speak up before it was too late.

ForestClan:
Lightningfoot bristled. Claws? And the moon was uncovered? What was StarClan thinking?!
He turned to Darkeyes. "I don't know if piping up now is the best idea," he admitted, flattening his ears. He didn't want to disagree with her, but he knew that even if he tried he couldn't protect Darkeyes from the wrath of all of FlameClan. "From the looks of things, it'll just make things worse. We told Foxstar what happened... it's not our place to speak up like that."
Lightningfoot sighed. "If it makes you feel better, you can try - but it doesn't look like Buzzardstar is about to listen!"

((I hope it's okay Darkeyes is speaking at a Gathering like this, Twili if you want me to change it so Darkeyes just keeps her tongue I will))
ForestClan:
Darkeyes lashed her tail in frustration, she felt terrified of the thought of having to speak in front of all these cats but Buzzardstar's claws were out and if anyone moved right now, it would be all out war between the Clans. Who knew what would happen! Darkeyes spat and rose from her sitting position. She couldn't keep quiet anymore. "Stop!" She yowled, her voice echoing around the clearing. "If you're going to get mad at ForestClan, get mad at me!" She challenged the FlameClan leader her head high. "I ran over your border but I didn't steal your squirrels! I stepped a foot over the border when I caught one, it wasn't right of me but I wasn't paying attention." Darkeyes held her gaze but kept her tail low. "It was an accident, but the squirrels' nest was on ForestClan territory, you had no claim to them anyways." She stopped speaking, trying not to look so terrified as she gazed at the FlameClan leader, "StarClan help me!" She thought, feeling like the forest ground was going to open up and swallow her.
OceanClan:
Silverstorm bristled as Buzzardstar's claws came out, she moved away from Bluestripe, keeping a weary eye and the FlameClan deputy. Sure she didn't think Bluestripe was going to attack her but right now Silverstorm was the closest cat to her and if Buzzardstar attacked Foxstar, who knew what was going to happen. Darkeyes' voice drew Silverstorm's gaze in shock. A warrior speaking at a Gathering? Silverstorm didn't know the she-cat but she looked terrified, and sounded quite out of place. If the she-cat was speaking the truth, Silverstorm hoped Buzzardstar would listen. "There can't be a fight at the Gathering!" She thought hopelessly, hoping the starry warriors agreed with her.

FlameClan:
Things were getting worse and worse. Bluestripe visibly bristled as the exchange between the leaders grew more and more tense. What on earth were they all thinking? It wasn't like Squirrelstar to get involved in the conflicts of FlameClan, and Foxstar... well, she didn't want to think about what Foxstar was trying to pull. She might catch on fire, so angry it made her.
A ForestClan cat began to shout from where they were gathered close by. Wait, had it been her that scared off the squirrels? Frowning, Bluestripe struggled to collect herself enough to listen.
It had been an accident. That was the best case scenario, but Bluestripe didn't like how weak this was making FlameClan look. The other clans didn't need any more ideas about them than they already had.
Buzzardstar looked so angry. Bluestripe wanted nothing more than to stand by her leader and support her, but right now was not the time. She ignored Silverstorm distancing herself to fix her gaze on Buzzardstar, hoping her leader would see her and know that she had her support against the other clans.
OceanClan:
So, a cat had accidentally crossed the FlameClan border? Pikepaw goggled at Darkeyes as she explained what had happened. "Do you think that's what this is all about?" He whispered to Turtlepaw.

OceanClan:
Turtlepaw trembled. The whole atmosphere was terrifying! Were all Gatherings like this?
"I don't know," she meowed. "I just... I hope it ends soon!"

OceanClan-
Foggystar's eyes narrowed at the ForestClan warrior; it wasn't a glare, per say, but it appeared neither friendly nor hateful. He couldn't help but admire Darkeyes for her bravery to speak out for what she had done wrong and her boldness to step between the two squabbling leaders. That made her braver than himself at the moment, since he felt extremely hesitant about stopping the fight. However, he also found it extremely foolish and rude of her to interrupt. This was a Gathering after all, and warriors were not normally permitted to speak unless given permission. But still, it seemed like one of the situations where it could be excusable, though Darkeyes would for sure have to face the consequences of her actions soon enough.

((Just a quick note here guys - if the Gathering isn't finished by the 31st, it'll be considered completed. I'll just put up a brief summary of what happened after the thread went quiet. Can't have this going on forever!))

THE GATHERING IS OVER!A brief synopsis of what happened after the thread went quiet:
Not much happened to OceanClan or MountainClan - Squirrelstar did her best to hide the threat of the wolves from the other Clans. Foggystar, Squirrelstar, and the rest of their Clans watched in shock as Buzzardstar and Foxstar fought over the lack of prey in FlameClan territory. Foxstar's suggestion that ForestClan help FlameClan did not go over well with Buzzardstar.
It almost came to blows - the FlameClan warrior Thrushheart nearly attacked ForestClan's Darkeyes for disturbing a nest of squirrels. She was defended by Lightningfoot and other ForestClan warriors. Still the moon shone high in the sky, uninterrupted by StarClan.
Meanwhile the heated exchanges between Foxstar and Buzzardstar were only riling their respective Clans up more - ForestClan was beginning to openly yowl about bringing FlameClan back into their control, as it should have always been, and FlameClan was becoming aggressive about defending their rights to independence. Some ForestClan warriors openly called Flamestar a fool, which only further angered FlameClan.
Squirrelstar and Foggystar stepped in finally, before claws came out and blows were exchanged. They separated the other two Clans with their own warriors, and Foggystar declared the Gathering over - leaving ForestClan and FlameClan to deal with their own issues themselves.
