Chapter Summary

Third-person PoV

Leafpool introuduces the story by saying that the Clans take it for granted that each Clan lives in the territory best suited to provide food for its particular hunting skills. Leafpool also says that this code is needed. She then begins to tell the story of a Gathering that has gone arupt. 

Stonetail, now Stonestar, stands on the Great Rock as Whitestar, Emberstar, Birchstar, and the newly appointed Brindlestar join him. Emberstar tries to talk, but Brindlestar inturrupts, challenging Whitestar and ThunderClan. Whitestar hisses, saying that they aren't the ones stealing prey, and Brindlestar shouldn't complain that his patrols drive her out every time. Brindlestar replies, snapping that they aren't stealing. Brindlestar then inquires what her Clan is supposed to eat if they cannot salvage any prey in their own home, which leads Birchstar to point out that each Clan lives where they are best suited. This prompts Vinetail, Whitestar's deputy, to ask when ShadowClan began hunting in undergrowth. Lakestorm, Brindlestar's deputy, responds by saying they did in their own territory.
