## Re-cap Blurb

The 4 small clans gather under Fourtrees for the first gathering of the season. They all share news as per usual, RiverClan specifically has had some issues as there camp had completely flooded due to the excessive amounts of rain. ThunderClan volunteers to take in all the RC members until the water level is lower and they are no longer at a flood risk. The announcement portion of the gathering ends and each cat has a brief conversation with one another. The deputies: Evergreen'Shade, Flame'Wish, Bark'Tooth, and Ebony'Bee, all have a nice chat together before the clans are all dismissed back to their camps. The night passes over slowly, TC and RC are getting used to being in the same camp while WC cats are sent on herb and hunting patrols. EvergreenShade, while on patrol, meets under the bridge with FlameWish to talk about current events as they didn't have quite enough time at the gathering. The two obviously seem to have a spark somewhere, which Oak'Mane noticed while he was walking by. Oak'Mane talks to EvergreenShade, who denied knowing anything for a few days. Later on, Flame'Wish is found almost dead on the bridge and of course Evergreen'Shade brings him back to WC camp for shelter and herb treatment. Oak'Mane presses the ginger tom with questions, eventually giving up and calling a meeting in an attempt to exile Evergreen'Shade. Luckily enough, TC cats come into WC camp looking for Flame'Wish and Evergreen'Shade is saved from exile by Ebony'Bee, who announces the clans are flooding. Oak'Mane, giving up on the exile for now, leads his clan safely up the mountains where all of the other clans were meeting. The clans all sit and watch as the water fills camps and tunnels, not sure what to do next.

## Re-cap Blurb II

They were left on the mountain, recovering from what had happened to them. This was a chance for everybody to catch up, it'd feel like a gathering for them. The three medicine cats, Tiding'Slumer, Moth'ear and Mud'thorn, were talking about the Moonstone. This led to Mud'thorn checking on the Moonstone, but ended up nearly drowning before being saved by Tiding'Slumer, Moth'ear didn't seem to mind though, as every cat was busy. The day seemingly got better when everybody was all together, talking, but it got ruined by the sound and shadow of a... bird. It struck Flame'Wish, injuring him quite badly, but he was okay thankfully with the help of the medicine cats. Heron'Strike did too, but he would take a bit longer to recover from his wounds. Ebony'Bee took notice of the situation, telling Mellow'kit to bring all of the other kits to a cat for safety, but it got worse when Wild'kit was taken off before Mellow could even reach the kit. Everybody was afraid, now knowing they were no longer safe again. It felt like everywhere and anywhere was dangerous. Almost half a moon goes by with the clans waiting on the mountains. After all this time, the water level is back to normal and the clans return to their now destroyed camps. TC however, is staying with WC, as their camp is still under water. The same goes for RC, who is living with SC for now. The cats all seem to get along as they begin to rebuild their homes.

## Re-cap Blurb III

A few cats who were brave enough to leave the mountains explored what was left of their camps. Afterwards, the cats met at the Fourtrees. Riverclan had been completely destroyed after the flood, leaving only the three clans left. After some discussions, each leader took their respective cats and left for their new homes - However, Flame'Wish stayed behind for a few moments. The cats got settled in at their new homes, hope filling them, perhaps their troubled minds would finally be able to rest? However, it seemed Starclan had it out for these cats. A fierce blizzard swept in like a cat pouncing on its prey. Coldness hit the clan cats, and all seemed lost. Though within a couple of hours, the blizzard finally stopped.

The two medicine cats took this time to quickly leave and look for herbs, while out on their herb hunt they ran into their deputy, Flame'wish. The two cats had wondered where this tom went, but before they could question him, the tom quickly meowed "**It's an emergency! Windclan needs our help!**" he gasped. The medicine cats hurried after him to Windclan camp, upon arriving their eyes set on a terrible looking tom-cat laying in the middle of camp. According to the cats there, he had suddenly collapsed, and both Windclan medicine cats weren't at camp at the time. Worry and panic filled the camp as the two Riverclan medicine cats approached. Moth'ear went to find some poppy-seeds for the cat while Frog'paw examined him. Though, the young feline couldn't seem to find anything wrong with the tom, except.. *He's skin and bones!* The realization hit like a brick wall. He quickly shouted that this cat was starving and the Windclan cats raced to get prey as fast as possible. As they were getting it, the cat murmured to Frog'paw that his name was Heron'Strike, and his time was up. Moments passed. Tears and dread filled the clan. Then, something sparked. A mention of Evergreen'Shade and Flame'Wish which piqued every cats interest. Oak'Mane accused the Riverclan deputy of sneaking off with her, which caused rage to fill the deputy. The two cats threw insults as sharp as claws at each other until they were split apart by watching cats. At first, it was uncertain whether this was true or not, but those questions were cast aside as Pelican'Paw spoke up, saying that she had seen the two together. Frog'Paw couldn't help but agree, after-all, the deputy had stayed behind at the gathering too. A sudden yowl escaped Flame'Wish, stating that he truly did have a relationship with the WC Warrior. This earned him a clawing from Oak'Mane. Afterwards, the RC cats were set home, Flame'Wish being banned from ever setting paw in WC territory. Evergreen'Shade was punished too. she faced exile, after her kits would be born she would be set out of WC territory. Her kits would be looked after by Bark'Snap.
