It was the night of the gathering and Snowflower was happy that she was chosen. It will be the first gathering she will go to without Mistcloud. All the apprentices were going and Smallpaw and Reedpaw weren't outside.
"I'll get them," Pebbleheart told her and a moment later Snowflower saw he was nudging both of them out of their den.
Bramblestar's yowl was heard and the cats caught up to the clan, who weren't coming. Snowflower noticed that she was the only mentor coming to the Gathering, but there were still few more warriors. At the time she got there, she saw Cloudheart from ThunderClan. Cloudheart was Mistcloud's ThunderClan friend. He was that golden tom from the first gathering and Snowflower had thought he was too nice.
"Hello Cloudheart," Snowflower mewed as she padded up to him. He was with a Ginger and white she-cat. She had faint kittypet stench on her.
"Hello Snowflower. How's RiverClan?" Cloudheart asked. "And where's Mistcloud?"
"RiverClan is good and Mistcloud is in camp with her kits." Snowflower answered.
"What's it to you." Growled Pebbleheart.
"Just wanted to know." Cloudheart mewed.
"Who is that?" Snowflower asked looking at the she-cat.
"She had recently joined our clan. Flowey used to be a kittypet but no longer."
"ThunderClan is recruiting Kittypets now? Shouldn't she have a proper clan name or warrior training?" Pebbleheart asked Cloudheart, still angry for some reason.
"Oh but you'll break the truce. Calm down fish-breath." Cloudheart growled at Pebbleheart.
Flowey looked confused so Snowflower brought her away from the toms and explained about the truce at any Gathering.
"Alright, I understand now."
"Now, how did come into the clans, at the point ThunderClan accepted you?
"Umm, well, my father is ThunderClan. My Twolegs were going to take my kits away, but then I took them to ThunderClan. I wish all my kits lived on the journey."
"What do you mean?" Snowflower asked, but Flowey couldn't answer. The Gathering had started.
"WindClan has two new apprentices, Frostpaw and Eaglepaw, and Shadestorm kitted Pebblekit."
"Frostpaw! Eaglepaw!
Frostpaw! Eaglepaw!"
Snowflower saw two apprentices with the WindClan cats, a pure-white and dark brown tabby."
"ShadowClan has suffered from a hard leaf-bare, but is still strong as before. Shadestorm had kitted Heartkit and Mousekit."
Bramblestar was starting now with news of RiverClan. "ShadowClan has six new apprentices, Reedpaw, Pouncepaw, Lionpaw, Frostpaw, Smallpaw and Thornpaw. Mistpool has kitting three kits, Riverkit, Cloudkit and Snowkit."
"Reedpaw! Pouncepaw! Lionpaw! Frostpaw! Smallpaw! Thornpaw!
"Reedpaw! Pouncepaw! Lionpaw! Frostpaw! Smallpaw! Thornpaw!
"Reedpaw! Pouncepaw! Lionpaw! Frostpaw! Smallpaw! Thornpaw!"
"ThunderClan has eight new apprentices, Stormpaw, Featherpaw, Badgerpaw, Coldpaw, and Wingpaw have been training for a moon already, but this is their first Gathering. And Turtlepaw, Skypaw and Graypaw are here."
All the cats cheered as they did, before Sootstar was going to speak,but Whitestar wasn't done, "We recently gotten a new cat to join our ranks in ThunderClan. Welcome Flowey."
"Flowey!
"Flowey!
"Flowey!"
Sootstar, leader of SkyClan padded forward and spoke, "SkyClan has no important news."
As cats started to join into grups as they always do, Snowflower turned to Flowey, "About what you said before, what did you mean by that?" Snowflower asked again.
"Oh yea, that. I had three kits when I entered the forest and only two survived. The one died by hunger. And I beleive Cloudheart has something to tell you," After she spoke, a purr came out.
"Meet me at the Sunningrocks border and bring Mistcloud and her kits with you. Come before dawn," Whispered Cloudheart.
Bramblestar signaled for RiverClan to leave. RiverClan bounded back to camp. 'Should I even meet him there? And why bring them there? They aren't his kits!' Snowflower thought. She was so much in thought, she almost walked right into some kind of tunnel in a bramble thicket. The kits might be Cloudheart's. Mistcloud never really said who her mate was and wasn't really close to any of the toms in RiverClan.
