Owlstar prided herself on being prompt and early when it came to gatherings. She was the oldest leader, the leader of Ivyclan, it was only right that she should be the first to arrive. Sure, Mothstar was a senior warrior and very respectable when it came to battle, and sure, Bearstar seemed to fit the role of a leader despite being so new to the role. But even they bowed their heads to see if she'd like to speak first, whether it be out of respect or just plain deference, and she held her head high because of that.
So, she roused her clan, warm pelts brushing against each other in contrast to the chill of the night. They'd wake up to fresh frost in the morning, that was for sure. She led them to the monster carcasses, her steps silent and quick as she made her way through the territory and led her cats whose paws thundered behind her. If her fur had been any lighter, she would've seemed like a ghost through the trees, her movements so graceful and fluid it seemed impossible that they could come from just a normal she-cat like herself.
She glanced at her deputy as he found his place at the base of the cars, and readied herself for the quick few leaps to the top. As elegant as always, she made it up without a problem. Fluffing her fur up against the chill, she cast her bright yellow gaze across her clan cats, a small smile coming to her face. They were mingling among themselves, talking in hushed voices and huddled together against the cold. Oh she loved her clan, they were so proud and loyal. Loyalty was always something she valued highly, which is why she found herself disliking Mothclan, despite her efforts to remain neutral. A clan of cats that left their homes. Who would want to leave the clan they had been born in? Ivyclan and Mistclan had existed for countless seasons, decades of generations. She herself was from a long line of Ivyclan smoky furred cats, and she held her bloodline in high regard. She did love it though, when others joined their clan. It meant they preferred life in Ivyclan over all else. Perhaps that's why she was so accepting of the rogues and kittypets that wanted to join clanlife.
She rose her head in interest as the scent of different cats reached her noise, casting a glance over to find where the sounds of paws and voices were coming from. She wondered who'd arrived next. Tonight would be a momentous gathering, she could feel it. Starclan was stirring, the moon was full and bright, and the blood of clan cats ran as hot as fire against the cold of leaf bare.
