Orchidwhisker purred at Icebreeze's small joke. If Orchidwhisker knew one thing about Hazelpelt, it was that she got on well with nearly all cats she encountered. He noticed neither of the cats he would be on patrol with seemed to share his low opinion of the MoorClan cats. Perhaps they have not encountered many of them, he thought, wondering if they had any previous experiences with the other clan. He knew for certain that he would never forget them, the small scar on his inner foreleg served as a permanent reminder of what they would do to trespassers. It had been his fault in the first place, but he was only an apprentice when he did it, and couldn't find the border. Thankfully he had managed to find his way back to AspenClan's territory without letting anybody from his clan ever know he was gone.

"I would prefer to run to the border too," he started, waiting to see if Icebreeze would take the lead. At the suggestion of running there, Orchidwhisker was ecstatic. "I suppose we should leave now," he said to Icebreeze. That way there may be less chance of encountering the other clans warriors he thought to himself.

Acornclaw was glad to talk to the senior warrior, unlike many other warriors, she held a certain respect for Tigereyes and was glad for the opportunity to speak so freely to him. She thought about he first gathering, it had been AspenClan's second gathering since moving to the new territory. She had met a few cats there, mainly from SedgeClan, and one or two from MoorClan. They got on well and the night went better than she imagined it had. She had only been too one other gathering since then, and it was pretty similar to her first. "I've been to two," she began, trying to remember if Tigereyes had been at either of them with her. "I think I remember you at my first one, you pointed out the leaders of the other clans for me." she said, remembering her first gathering when she was a newly made warrior. Acornclaw found herself enjoying Tigereyes' company, he was an interesting cat and she was eager to get to know him better. She had noticed he was usually more distant from the clan, and was glad he was speaking to her now.

Watching as she spoke, he got a flashback to the gathering. The good one, he thought and looked back. It was not long after Acornclaw's ceremony, and he had taken on the job to watch over her until they got there. He didn't know why but at the time it felt like he was acting like her father, but he didn't really mind. It would only get bad if anyone else commented on it.
"Ah yes, I remember that. Then you ran off to meet some new cats, I actually got in touch with an old friend as well. Do you think your friends will be there?" he asked, the corners of his mouth were pointing upwards ever so slightly as he looked at her.

She responded with a nod to the apology that Fawnpaw came with and watched her as she tried to save herself with having to eat before training. So energetic, I wish I could be like that. It would help me through a lot of things!
She never remembered herself being that full of energy when she were a apprentice back in her old clan. Feeling her heart sink a little, she quickly pushed away the thought and looked at Robinflight as she spoke her name.
"If you have somewhere to be, I don't mind it theres no hurry!" she said and gave a nervous smile and a hesitant chuckle. She took a bite into the bird and chewed slowly, her tail swaying from side to side restlessly.

(sorry if it's a bit short!)

"oh, but, but- never mind. yes, robinflight," fawnpaw mumbled, her sight drooping to the floor. she cleaned off the mouse, licking around her mouth for any remains while she watched the rest of the clan commotion. fawnpaw sighed, lowering herself to the ground, almost like she was about pounce, but instead settled on the floor and lay there, breathing quietly. she couldn't wait to do something! all this standing around was boring, and if fawnpaw had a choice between talking with another cat or going out to the forest to learn some hunting skills, she would almost certainly pick the latter option. she smiled to herself, dozing off slightly as she dreamed of chasing mice and pawing wriggly insects. it was certainly a good dream.

Acornclaw fondly remembered the gathering. The cats she had met had all been very friendly. She remembered one SedgeClan cat particularly well, a newly made warrior only a moon older than her. She hadn't seen her at her second gathering but hoped to meet her again in the future. Her name was Feathercloud from memory, but Acornclaw was not the best at remembering names so she could be wrong. There was also a tom, but she couldn't remember his name for the life of her. "I hope they will be there, it feels like it has been so long since I've seen them. None of them had been at my second gathering unfortunately." she said, recalling the night. She was interested in Tigereyes old friend suddenly, how had he known them in the first place? "What was it like seeing your old friend?" she inquired, trying not to be too pushy with her question. If Tigereyes didn't want to tell her about his history, she wouldn't push it, but she was ever so curious at the moment.

Robinflight watched as both of her clan mate’s replied. She could tell Ghostpelt was nervous because of her anxious smile and awkward chuckle, as well as what she said. And as for Fawnpaw, she seemed disappointed. She couldn’t help but to feel bad for turning down the apprentice, but she had to learn to be patient. Going hunting on a freshly full stomach wouldn’t do well for her either, Robinflight had already experienced the sick feeling when you have an occupied belly while moving at quick speeds. With that Robinflight shook her head at Ghostpelt, telling her that it was alright and that they had plenty of time. She watched as the two other cats with her sat down and begun to eat their food, so Robinflight followed. She sat down and placed her fluffy tail over her paws, bending down and ripping the flesh from the mouse. She found that the underside of the mouse was the best part, so she tried to eat around it so she could save the best till last. Once she had taken a bite from the creature and swallowed, Robinflight looked towards Ghostpelt with a smile. She tried her best to make Ghostpelt a little more relaxed. Her friend didn’t need to be tense around her, and around her apprentice as well. Robinflight didn’t know how Fawnpaw thought about Ghostpelt, and all she could do was hope that it was good.

The she-cat licked her lips before opening her mouth to speak, not enjoying the feeling of dried blood on her face. “First things first, Hawkstar wants us to keen close with SedgeClan and avoid any sort of conflict with them. MoorClan are also reportedly becoming aggressive towards our clan, so we need to keep an eye on the river that separates us from them.” Robinflight said, taking a breath and allowing Ghostpelt to take in the information. “Lastly, there is a gathering coming in a few suns between MoorClan, SedgeClan and ourselves. I assume we’d have to ask Hawkstar any questions about the gathering.” She said, finishing up what Hawkstar had said earlier this morning. Personally, Robinflight would like to go to the gathering, but she could understand that there were more important cats that would better replace her. She always liked meeting with the other clans, as she found it refreshing and a good way to form friendships. Robinflight had only been a few times, but she wasn’t as social as she is now. The warrior took another bite of her mouse, swallowing and then taking a few more as she heard her stomach starting to growl viciously at her.

“So Ghostpelt, would you like to join myself and Fawnpaw on a morning hunt? I was hoping we could gather some more food for the clan, as the pile is starting to look a little sad” Robinflight asked her clan mate, looking over to the pile with a slight frown. If there were two cats out with Fawnpaw, it would be good because there were double the eyes to watch the little fur ball. She smiled to Ghostpelt and then looked over to Fawnpaw to watch her reaction, hoping she wouldn’t mind having another cat join them. Of course, Robinflight wouldn’t block out Fawnpaw and still train her in hunting. This could be a good time to observe how the apprentice is going, and ask Ghostpelt for advice or criticism.

He heard her ask about his friend, and he couldn't help but hide a slight smile. He remember meeting her, the she-cat together with her mate. They became good friends, the three of them. The she-cat's mate were a bit grumpy, but so was he so he didn't mind.
"Daisytail. She was old at the time so I don't know if she would manage to attend this year, but I hope she will. She had two daughters when I talked to her, I don't remember their names tho. Something with Feather and Sorrel I believe" he said and thought for a moment. He called back to when she told about them, the sparkle in her eyes and how much she couldn't stop saying how adorable they were and how cute and how nice they were. Tigereyes didn't know what to think of kits tho, most of them were scared of his appearance. He didn't blame them tho.

She listened carefully as she retold what Hawkstar had to say. The gathering sounded fun, she couldn't recall ever going to one and hoped that she could go. As for the clans, she didn't really know what to think of them. Like usual, she would just go with the stream and listen to the ones who were in charge and the ones who knew better. She didn't know any cats from other clans and didn't have anything to say about them. She noticed that she were staring empty into the air while thinking and snapped back as she heard Robinflight ask her a question.
Join them hunt? That sounds good, I guess..
"Sure, I'd love to join you if it's no bother" she said and smiled, feeling more at ease again as Fawnpaw had calmed down and as Robinflight smiled at her. She didn't know why, but her smile just made everything feel better.

fawnpaw bounced happily. "yay! you're so cool, ghostpelt!" the little apprentice giggled cheerily, rocking from side to side on her paws. "this is going to be sooo fun!" fawnpaw raced around before settling down again, because she knew robinflight would tell her off if she caused too much commotion. "robinflight, can i come to the gathering? i wanna meet the other cats!" fawnpaw said this with a bit of an indignant tone, as if she was missing out on a very, very important event. she hoped robinflight wouldn't say no. that would be really disappointing. as fawnpaw thought about this, her tail drooped. what if i can't come? what if robinflight goes, and i don't? who's going to train me? fawnpaw looked sadly up at robinflight, her cute, innocent and deep and emotional eyes burning into robinflight's. "please?" she asked with a small pout. an idea popped into her head. "and ghostpelt can come, too!"

Honeyblaze, true to her nature, huffed in response to Nightfoot's question. "I've been better, no doubt," She meowed dryly. Honeyblaze was feisty on a normal day, but now with the discomfort of expecting, she was worse than usual. She flicked hir ginger tail irritably, as much as she was excited for her kits to be born, she just wished that they could be born already. She was getting impatient. "How are you?" she asked Nightfoot, hoping to take her mind off of the heaviness.

Acornclaw listened to the older tom speak. When he mentioned the possible name of Daisytail's two kits her eyes flew wide open. Feathercloud had been one of her bigger friends at the gathering, they had spoken for a while before the leaders had called attention. "I believe you may be speaking about Feathercloud and Sorrelpaw's mother? I met Feathercloud at the gathering, she was one of the kindest cats I've ever met from a clan other than ours." she said, fondly remembering the encounter with the molly. She had not met Sorrelpaw, but Feathercloud had mentioned her name and Acornclaw had not forgotten it. "How amusing is that? The two cats that each of us met at a gathering are related!" Acornclaw said enthusiastically, which was quite out of character for her. "I do hope that both of them will be there this moon, have you met them before?" she inquired, wondering if she could introduce them if necessary.

The more the cat talked about Daisytail's daughters, the more exited he was to go to the gathering. The last time he looked forward to it this much was at his first gathering which he almost didn't recall. A genuine smile rested on his face, which was quite rare to be seen on him, but he didn't care at this point. "It would be great to meet them again. Just to catch up and all, since we haven't spoken in so long" he said with a satisfied sigh. It was like something had lifted off his shoulders and he felt lighter, and happier at this point. It was nice talking to Acornclaw and he was glad that she came over to him. The cats being to intimidated by him was starting to make him tired and feel a bit lonely, so it was nice to have a little change in his everyday life.

Seeing the little molly's reaction, she smiled. This apprentice isn't that bad, she thought for himself and watched as she was rocking back and forth with joy. Nothing was cuter then kits and apprentices when they were really exited, remembering again from her time as apprentice and smiled for herself. "Can I come to the gathering?" Fawnpaw asked, and it made Ghostpelt widen her eyes a bit as she smiled. She also suggested Ghostpelt to join and a sweet chuckle escaped her mouth.
"Although I would love to join, it's for Hawkstar to decide who should come" she said softly, smiling kindly as she explained. If it had been that easy to just decide not to go, 80% of the clan would probably have gone anyways.
