"Captain Zidgel?" The horrified look on the captain's face reflected Midgel's own. He stepped back so Zidgel could get up. "Midgel, is that you?" the captain askedas he pulled a leaf out of his fur. Midgel nodded. He quickly surveyed the area, making sure nobody was around. Then, he faced Zidgel again and asked, "Have you seen Kevin or the doctor yet?" Zidgel shook his head, then grabbed a ball of moss and tossed it up in the air.

Midgel rolled his eye sand lashed his tail. "What's your name among your Clan?" The captain tossed the moss ball behind him. "It's Ebonypaw, for some reason. So, what's your cat name?" The officer looked down at his front paws. "I'm Bonsaipaw. Captain, I think we should use their names for us for now. At least until we get out of here." Then, there was the sound of paws. Midgel tensed, "We need to return to our Clans before we get caught. Meet me here tonight." Midgel raced back to ShadowClan camp before Zidgel responded.

Midgel made it back to camp before Whisperstar returned. She walked over to Midgel as he was eating a small mouse beside Lizardpaw. "Would you like to learn how to hunt tomorrow Bonsaipaw?" Midgel nodded and Lizardpaw asked, "Can I come too?" Whisperstar chuckled, "We'll see what Thornwish says, okay?" Lizardpaw nodded excitedly and Whisperstar walked to her den.

Lizardpaw prodded Midgel in the side. "Hey Bonsaipaw, have you noticed how much Silverfeather and Whisperstar talk?" Midgel looked in the leader's den and saw the medicine cat's silver tabby pelt. The blue gray tom continued, "You think it might be because of a prophecy?" Midgel turned back to Lizardpaw, "Nah, they might just be talking about tonight. After all, it is the half moon."


"Rockpaw, what all do you know about WindClan?" Kevin turned to his mentor as they sorted leaves. "They run really fast." Moonwish stopped sorting and sighed, "Do you want to come with me to WindClan to get some coltsfoot? They owe us big time after we let them borrow the majority of our catmint, so it should be okay." Kevin thought about it for a moment. He's never been outside of RiverClan, and he might be able to find his friends. "Yes."

Moonwish got up, "Then let's go." The two medicine cats trotted out of RiverClan camp and to the shore of a lake. Moonwish stopped where the water and land met. "Rockpaw, do you know how to swim?" Of course Kevin knew how to swim! He's a penguin, swimming is an instinct. Kevin nodded as Moonwish started walking to the right. Kevin followed his mentor towards some distant hills.


RiverClan's coming? The doctor came back a few minutes before Swifttail rushed back into camp saying there were RiverClan cats coming. Webpelt poked her head out of her den. "Is one of them a white tom with blue eyes?" The gray tom nodded. Webpelt rolled her eyes, "It's Moonwish, RiverClan's medicine cat, you stupid furball! Where's the rest of the dusk patrol?"

Just then, Hawkflight, Curlystorm, and Gorsefoot arrived with two toms that smelled of fish and herbs. Moonwish, and a slightly smaller tom. Whose pelt might confirm Fidgel's guess. Webpelt padded up to Moonwish, "What is it Moonwish? We still have a little while before…"Moonwish shook his head, "I need coltsfoot while since our crop isn't ready for harvest, and you owe us." Webpelt sighed and motioned the snowy medicine cat to her den, and then both disappeared inside. Fidgel looked back at the younger tom, and noticed that the tom was staring back at him.

Then, the tom got up and sat down in front of Fidgel. The doctor looked around; making sure no one was listening, and then looked back up at the tom. "Kevin, is that you" Kevin smiled, "Hello." Fidgel was washed over with relief and joy knowing Kevin was here. "Kevin, have you seen the captain or Midgel?" His tall companion shook his head and looked down at his paws. "My name is Rockpaw."

"What? Oh, your Clan name."

"What is yours?"

"Mine? It's Nightpaw."

Moonwish walked out of the medicine cat's den with some herbs. Fidgel whispered in Kevin's ear, "Meet me at the border tomorrow night, okay?" Kevin nodded then padded after Moonwish, but looked back at the doctor with joyful amber eyes.

So, if Kevin's in RiverClan, then the captain should be in ThunderClan, and Midgel should be in ShadowClan! Maybe soon we will find the way to being penguins once more!


Zidgel just sat there after Midgel sped off into the pine forest, and then he realized he'd better go back to camp. He ran at full pelt as he crashed into the gorge. What the captain also just realized is that the whole Clan was staring at him. Wildfire flicked his tail, "Is everything okay, Ebonypaw?" Zidgel hesitated, "Uh…yeah, Lightningstar wanted me back here before it got too hot." The dark brown tabby eyed Zidgel suspiciously, "Then where is she?"

"Right here, where else would I be?" The captain sighed in relief as the she-cat leader sat beside him. Cinderdawn walked up to her, "Is there anything wrong?" Lightingstar shook her head. The other warriors got up and lay down in whatever shade they could find. Zidgel also got up and went into the apprentice's den and curled up in his new nest. Well, that's one down, two to go. I wonder if I'll ever see the doctor or Kevin.
