    It had been a long time coming. Things in the Skull needed to change and quickly. Pluxiria, as great as he was, seemed to have let some of the greatest features of Skull go to the wayside like crow food, and Voltaire and Sharven had been in deep discussion about what needed to happen to fix this.


    "Cat of Skull, gather. We have important things to discuss," he meowed loudly.


    As cats gathered, he made promotion announcements.


    "We have promoted new Herbs. Our head medical council will be Damage, and his apprentices and Herbs-in-Training are Boo and Leon. May Fortis bless their work. I also would like to announce that Rohan has been missing for some time. For this reason, we are presuming him dead, and I have chosen to promote Jedi in his place. Jedi has been fiercely loyal to Skull and will make a fine addition to the Cave Warden team. Now, on to the rest of the reason for this meeting."


    He waited for the normal commotion to settle before continuing.

    [font=arial]K9 arrived first on the scene with a fleeting smile on his muzzle, caused by promotion of the herbalists. K9 knew it meant SkullClan members were allowed to get down and dirty again if they had herbalists in their ranks, not that the dark brown tabby wanted to waste their resources, but all of those moons of supressing his every killing instinct and using fighting as a last resort had been boring, and frankly, exhausting. K9 thrived in war and battle, it was the very thrum of his heart, it was the only reason, after being wiped of everything he had ever loved, he had wanted to live.

    [justify]Her shining form danced to the spot, an alive glimmer resident within azure eyes as she listened to Sharaven. The first part of the meeting, excluding the promotion of Jedi, was old news, she had already encountered one of the two Herbs-in-Training and was aware that they had recently been promoted. What Lust desired to hear had not been uttered yet. A hunt of more words merely been dropped to create a ripple of anticipation, of excitement, that would surely only affect the males within the clan. No matter, she enjoyed watching their joy, feeling their happiness crack threw the air. It brought a grin to her maw.


    The daughter of Crave and Magic, their second eldest daughter even for appearing so young, slid to a sitting position, careful to mind K9 and careful to allow her higher up's better seats to see and listen too. If she were beckoned up front, she would come, but a respectful girl mind her manners and sat in the back. Everyone knew that.

    Sliding into the room with a grin prevailing on his ebony face, Gloom sat and looked up at the leader. He listened to the promotions and demotions silently, eyes not giving away anything but humor.

    Jedi padded in with a crooked smile plastered on his face. There browse shouldered tom nodded to Sharven truly garetful.
    "Thank ye for this Sharven. Skull will thrive." He said before taking a seat and glancing over the cats gathered his expression hard. That K9 seemed like a good fellow and of course there was the she-csats. He frowned slightly and turned his attention back to the front to listen to the rest of the meeting. What else could be going on? Hopefully not more female promotions. He wouldn't be able to stand that.

    Trotting in after his friend and sister, Pride swept his citron eyes over the crowd, and nodded respectfully to Jedi. The black and white tom was sure that he deserved it. "Good job, Jedi." Settling down, the son of Cave and Magic awaited the rest of the meeting.

    [align=left][font=tohoma][size=8][sup]witchdoctor moved forward with a pristine grace. of cours ehe was only an apprentice, but the lynx point son of afrodita and bistrenight sat beside no one in particular, maybe he should go see soli and loli, his two favorite siblings. he disliked everyone else he was related to for the most part, especially his father. he was retarded and bistrenight could be dead for all the young tom cared. "what is going on?" his odd yellow and navy eyes giving off a crazed, almost evil-scientist look.

    Padding to the meeting like everyone else, the herb glanced at the newly promoted Jedi. Giving an approving nod to himself, the brown tabby sat beside his brother, Witchdoctor. His eyes looked to each of the so-far assembled cats, and he wondered if everyone else was set to make it--the damager whispered in his mind that, the very least, his two trainees should make an appearance, though all would probably need to show up.




    Especially since it seemed that Sharven was planning to announce something big.




    "Not sure, Witch," he said to his brother, turning to him for a second. A slight grin appeared on his face at some ideas of what this was all about entered his mind. "But knowing Sharven, something good."

    [size=8]Greed stalked over to the meeting, twitching his translucent whiskers in curiosity. The tall tomcat sat next to the newly promoted Jedi and gave him a small smile. "Good job, everyone." he grumbled as he did not care too much. Whatever helps us become stronger is good with me. Licking an alabaster paw, Greed waited to see what else would be announced at this meeting.

    Arsenal glanced up at the leader, obvious curiousity flashing in his pinkish eyes. New positions were always something to talk about, but what else could there be? The albino Tom yawned, whipping his tail across the ground to rest on his snowy paws. He hadn't noticed anything going on. Maybe there were things he just didn't know about yet.

    [align=left][font=tohoma][size=8][sup]"honestly." witchdoctor pursed his lips, canine teeth poking out just a tiny bit in an annoyed frown. his muscles tensed when collateral damage. he was quite proud of his brother, one of his only family members he saw regularly, but nontheless, witchdoctor gave him nothing but a simple nod, damage would know the lynx point was proud of his, right?


    right.

    [fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; width=400px; font: 10px times new roman; color: #FFEFCE; text-align: justify;]Leon arrived at the meeting and took a seat near his mentor. He was slightly late, but had managed to hear the new promotion. He looked at Jedi and dipped his head in congratulations before turning his attention back to their leader. The meeting wasn't over yet.

    With a glance at his brother, the brown tabby smirked slightly at the tiny nod. Perhaps it would be overlooked by most, but Damage knew better than that. Witchdoctor tended to under-do everything--when asking for payment for one of his shop items, he asked only for a small promise in return. So this didn't surprise the tomcat at all.




    His gaze was drawn away by the sounds of movement, and Damage was slightly pleased to note that Leon had the right state of mind to turn up--good for him. But he said nothing on the matter, and simply turned his green eyes back to Sharven, waiting for the large tom to speak and say what the rest of the meeting's time was for.

    [color=black]Everybody said we gotta take a chance and tell them what the hell went wrong.
    We only listened to the words that we sang, now a million are singing along.




    There was one last thing to mention before moving on the the heart of this meeting.


    "We also have received word that Omorthan is no longer in position to do his duties as Deputy. In his place, we will promote Kimba and Nebuchadnezzar."


    He only paused for a moment, not wanting to loose their attention, since the Skull cats seemed to be fewer and fewer these days.


    "Things have been wrong in the Skull for some time now. Voltaire and I have discussed this and we are bringing back the golden era of the Skull. No longer will we be easy on our she-cats. No longer will we forget our great god Fortis. Things are about to change, and for good."


    He said, beginning his speech on the new order. He waited briefly for response.

    Gloom nodded his head, a grin on his face at the promotions and speech.


    ooc;
    so according to the guide, skulls are allowed to take servants, correct? do they have to get permission icly?

    K9 knew Ormothan, and was lightly dissapointed in his demotion, but said nothing against it, the dark brown tabby tom's loyalty to his leader was much more over whelming than the simple loyalty to one Clanmate.

    [justify]Lust was unfazed by the speak of treating the females differently. She had not the slightest of plants to rebel, and she was a naturally obedient soul. For her, there was no really concern. She had been aware of other girls who had fled the cave just to feel the silken grass underfoot, to taste the fresh outside air for possibly the first time in their entire life.


    She was not like that. Lust would listen until the day she died.

    Jedi's smile broadened greatly. "Here, here!" He shouted out his support adamantly. About time too! He was tired of brats running around as if they owned the place. Now he could get back to what he had done before in their old home. Smacking she-cats around and keeping them in their place. Oh this was just on time. Perfection was back.

    "Atta boy!" Pride boomed out his full support, yellow eyes glinting with satisfaction.


    Boo padded nervously into the meeting, cursing himself for being late. It he hadn't been so far out looking for herbs, he wouldn't have, but such was life. As the mentioning of Skull returning to it's old ways, Boo's gut curled in anxiety. Surely, the Herbs would be expected to go back to the old ways too.


    Boo glanced at his brother, his eyes slightly worried as he padded over to sit with the other Herbs, who had probably gotten there on time. "Sorry for being late." he muttered.


    ---


    Crave couldn't hide his excitement at the news. Finally! Things would go back the way they used to be, and he couldn't wait to get back into his normal routine. Finding his son, he gave him a victorious shove in the shoulder with his forehead, his eyes gleaming wickedly. He looked around for his other children, and was pleased to see that the majority of them were there.
