I feel like I keep accidentally changing Foxpaw's personality. It's hard to make a main character's personality when you have multiple personalities.

"The Gathering is tonight," Sparkstar began, his voice ringing out over the clearing. Over the past quarter moon, Roseleaf was still complaining about a pain in her belly, but she had also said that it was feeling better than before. Moonleaf was concerned, but other than the pain, the Queen was perfectly healthy, along with her kits. There wasn't much the two Medicine Cats could do, other than wait and hope. "The cats going will be Blazestorm, Moonleaf, Featherfire, Songshade, Waternight, Snowleopard, Heartfall, Goldenapple, Stormflame, Ravensight, Swifteagle, Ghostpaw, Chesterpaw, Fallenpaw, Lonepaw, Foxpaw, and Duskpaw." Foxpaw's ears perked at her name.

Moonleaf stood and purred at her red-furred apprentice. "Well, c'mon," she meowed. "Sparkstar won't wait for long." Foxpaw leapt to her paws as Sparkstar leapt off of the Ancient Tower and padded towards the camp entrance. The cats that were called followed after him. He waited a few heartbeats before racing forward and out of camp. The MossClan cats followed at his heels.

Foxpaw was surprised that she easily kept up to the warriors and apprentices. She had been spending most of her time cooped up in camp, except for her fighting session with Fallenpaw and when she went out to gather herbs. It didn't seem to take that long for them to dive into a cave entrance, and was surprised to see that Duskpaw was lagging behind and panting.

The cave quickly got dark, and she had to use the scents of the cats of her Clan to guide her way. After a few heartbeats, they emerged into a cavern that was filled with silver moonlight. Foxpaw looked around.

In front of her was a pool, with a boulder in the middle. A blue-gray she-cat with silver eyes was sitting patiently on top of it, with a cat she recognized as Embersoul was sitting below her. She guessed that the she-cat was Streamstar, the leader of LeafClan. Silver light reflected off of the water and onto their pelts. Cats from LeafClan padded along the edges of the cave, talking to each other and turning their eyes to the newly arrived Clan.

Sparkstar and Blazestorm immediately took their place on the boulder. Moonleaf looked at her apprentice. "Go on," she meowed. "Have fun, go talk to some other apprentices." Foxpaw nodded with a smile on her face before slipping away from MossClan and joining LeafClan.

"Hey, you!" A cat called. Foxpaw's ears perked as she turned her face towards a group of LeafClan apprentices. One of them, the one that called out to her, had white fur with light and dark gray patches with amber eyes. Another was a pure white, feathery-furred she-cat with golden eyes that reminded her of Sparkstar's own, except that they looked much nicer than her leaders. Another was a small, black she-cat with green eyes who looked like she just wanted to shrink into herself. Finally, there was a shiny, black furred tom with white flecks and forest green eyes who was smiling.

The white she-cat who had called out to her was balanced on her haunches as she waved a forepaw in the air. "Yeah, you!" she yowled. "Come over here!"

Foxpaw hesitated for a second before she joined the four. She sat down next to the two white she-cats. "Hello," she meowed, tilting her head as she looked at the white and gray she-cat went back to sitting down.

"Hey!" The tom meowed. "I'm Frogpaw, this-" he gestured to the black she-cat, "Is Cricketpaw, that-" she gestured to the white she-cat, who dipped her head to Foxpaw, "is Snowypaw, and the cat who just made the whole Gathering look at you is Rabbitpaw." Rabbitpaw let out a purr.

"I'm Foxpaw," she meowed, watching as Snowypaw turned her eyes to something behind her. The Medicine Cat turned her head to look at Chesterpaw and Fallenpaw, who padded past the group (but not without a nod from Fallenpaw and a smile and tail wave from Chesterpaw).

"Who were they?" Snowypaw asked.

"The big one's Fallenpaw, and the black-furred one Chesterpaw," Foxpaw meowed. The white apprentice nodded.

"You know, your fur's really bright," Frogpaw began. "Who's your mentor? They've gotta be pretty smart to hide it."

Foxpaw flattened her ears against her head. "Moonleaf."

"Moonleaf's your Clan's Medicine Cat, right?" Cricketpaw's soft voice asked. Foxpaw nodded. Frogpaw blinked before it must have clicked.

"Oh," he meowed.

"That's still pretty cool," Rabbitpaw meowed. "I mean, Medicine Cats are pretty high ranked, right?"

Foxpaw let out a sigh. "Doesn't feel like it sometimes." Most of the time, she thought. None of the other apprentices had a chance to respond before ScarClan came streaming into the cave. A small, light gray she-cat with blazing amber eyes leapt to the boulder and joined the other leaders. Foxpaw guessed that she was Storkstar. Rainfrost, the Deputy, was a long tailed, brown pelted tabby she-cat with green eyes. The cave only became more filled as the ScarClan cats easily slid into the other Clans.

It only took a few heartbeats for the group of apprentices to be joined by a ScarClan apprentice. He was a blue gray tom with a lighter face and rare, red eyes that almost matched Foxpaw's fur color. They weren't bright enough for that.

"Mind if I join you?" he asked. The cats shook their head. He settled himself next to Rabbitpaw. "I'm Driftpaw." Rabbitpaw took the responsibility upon herself of introducing the other apprentices.

"Hey, hey!" Foxpaw turned her head to look at the sound of Chesterpaw's voice, who looked like he was being gently tugged forward by a two toned, tan colored tom with brown eyes. Fallenpaw and another apprentice, a black and white tom with gray fur tips and and amber eyes following behind him. The four settled down next to them, Chesterpaw and Fallenpaw situating themselves on either side of Foxpaw while the two new apprentices sat next to Driftpaw.

"Hey!" the tan tom meowed. "I'm Peanutpaw, and this-" he gestured to the black, white, and gray tom, "is Smokeypaw." Again, the rest of the cats introduced themselves.

Frogpaw, Rabbitpaw, and Peanutpaw immediately jumped into a conversation about training, or something like that. Cricketpaw, Snowypaw, and Driftpaw moved a bit closer to Foxpaw, Fallenpaw, and Chesterpaw.

"You three aren't the only MossClan apprentices here, are you?" Snowypaw asked. Foxpaw shook her head.

"Ghostpaw, Lonepaw, and Duskpaw should be around here somewhere," Fallenpaw meowed, licking his paw. Foxpaw nudged him. He looked over at her and put his paw down, before turning back towards the ScarClan and LeafClan cats.

"Isn't MossClan supposed to be…" Driftpaw let his voice trail off, like he was thinking about what he was trying to say.

"Judgemental?" Cricketpaw softly suggested. Driftpaw nodded.

Chesterpaw and Fallenpaw both flinched. "Yeah," Chesterpaw meowed.

"Why do you think Foxpaw's a Medicine Cat?" Fallenpaw asked. "If it was up to Ravensight and Swifteagle, she would be a warrior apprentice."

"You were forced into it?" Snowypaw asked. Foxpaw nodded.

"Sparkstar… well, let's just say I'm not his favorite cat."

"Why couldn't you just talk to him?" Driftpaw asked.

"It was either Medicine Cat or exile." No cat had a chance to respond as Streamstar's yowl rose above the chatter. The cave was left eerily silent, and the leaders started speaking.
