Frostpaw watched Fallenstar, waiting for the signal. Then she saw him flick his tail tip three times. The clan rushed down to fourtrees where Shadowclan and Skyclan were already gathered. Frostpaw immediately looked for Skypaw.
"Don't be surprised if he's not here. He's probably still healing from the rouge battle."
Frostpaw looked behind her, towards the voice, and saw Fallenstar.
"I know." Frostpaw padded into the clearing and sat down.
"Hi!" She heard a cheery voice behind her.
"Hi..." she responded glumly.
"What's wrong? It's a gathering, you should be excited!"
"I'm just tired I guess." she turned around to look at the apprentice.
She was pitch black with a ginger-red tipped tail, and green eyes. Something seemed off...
"Oh, well I'm Nightpaw!"
"I'm Frostpaw."
"I was born during the Shadowclan forest fire!"
"I was born during a blizzard."
"Did you know that I got a prophecy? From Starclan and everything! They said, A fire, a blizzard, a normal, a dog attack, and a rain storm birth will lead to the fate of the clans. Or it was something like that."
"Cool?" Frostpaw looked down and saw that Nightpaw was missing a paw. She looked up and saw it was also half her leg that was missing.
"What happened to your leg?" She asked shocked.
"It was burned off when I was born. My clan says I should be a medicine cat, but I'm going to prove them wrong and be the best warrior ever!" Nightpaw kept on talking but Frostpaw wasn't listening to her anymore. She was listening to a group of Shadowclan cats nearby.
"How's Nightpaw going to be a good warrior if she can't fight?"
"Yeah! She might as well be picking herbs."
"Who knew she'd become friends with the Thunderclan curse!"
Nightpaw had stopped talking and was looking at Frostpaw, who was glaring at some Shadowclan cats.
"Frostpaw?"
"Yeah?"
"Your fur is-it's-it's blue."
Frostpaw looked at her fur and realized that her now blue pelt was bristling. She filled her head with thoughts of Skypaw and her fur turned white again and she let her fur lie flat. Nightpaw stared at her astonished.
"That's cool!"
"I guess that happens when I bite myself and when I get angered."
"Was it something I said?"
"No." Frostpaw glared at the Shadowclan cats who were staring at her shocked. Nightpaw followed her gaze and then looked back at Frostpaw, she was about to speak when a toms voice sounded beside her.
"Hey Frostpaw! I've been looking for you since Thunderclan got here." Frostpaw turned around and saw Skypaw.
"Skypaw! Hi! This is Nightpaw." Frostpaw signaled to the black Shadowclan she cat with an orange tail tip. Skypaw looked over and then looked down and saw her missing paw.
He gasped. "Your paw! It's gone!"
"I-" Nightpaw started but Frostpaw wasn't going to let her tell another long story.
"She lost it in a forest fire." Frostpaw interrupted quickly.
"Oh, sorry Nightpaw, that was rude of me to question you like that."
"It's okay."
"I'm Skypaw by the way."
"Nice to meet you."
A yowl on the great rock interrupted the three apprentices.
"Let the gathering begin!"
Frostpaw leaned over to Skypaw and whispered.
"When did Windclan and Riverclan get here?"
Before Skypaw could answer, someone interrupted him from behind.
"We got here while you were chattering away."
"I can talk to my friends! It's a gathering!" Frostpaw meowed as she turned and glared at the cat behinds her. The Riverclan cat nudged the cat next to him while purring.
"Did you hear that? The Thunderclan curse has friends, the Shadowclan weakling and the Skyclan loner!"
"I'm not a curse!" She screeched.
Meanwhile Nightpaw and Skypaw turned around.
"What did you just call me?" Nightpaw growled.
"I'm not a loner!" Skypaw retorted.
"I hope I heard you wrong, but I thought you just called me weak!"
"You heard me correctly weakling."
Nightpaw hissed.
"She isn't weak and she'll prove it fishface."
"It's not nice to call your friend names, Curse." Frostpaw looked at him better now.
"Emberstream! You're just mad that I hate you!" Frostpaw was interrupted by a loud yowl behind them. Frostpaw was the first to turn around.
She gasped. "Fallenstar!" Frostpaw watched as a blue and grey pelted rouge sliced his side. The rest of the cats turned around and saw what had happened, they started looking around and saw that they were surrounded by rogues. They had positioned themselves right out of sight until now. There had to have been more than all the clans combined.
Frostpaw was the first to get out of shock and ran to Fallenstar. She started licking the blood from his wound, and Blizzardrain was soon by her.
"Luckily I bring herbs everywhere." Blizzardrain announced.
Meanwhile, the cat that attacked Fallenstar let out a yowl, her bright amber eyes gleaming in the moonlight., "Rogues! Attack!"
The rogues charged at the clans.
Blizzardrain took over and as Frostpaw turned around, she saw Emberstream attacking a rogue, that was attacking Skypaw. She searched the area for Nightpaw, and saw that she was pinned under a huge tom. He was scratching her belly, but stopped and was now going for her throat.
"No!" She screeched.
Frostpaw jumped straight off the top of the rock, spraining her leg, and ran as fast as she could towards Nightpaw. Frostpaw picked up speed and rammed into the tom, toppling him over. Frostpaw bit him in the side, then her leg gave way under her weight. Frostpaw looked around and couldn't see Emberstream or Skypaw.
"Help!" She heard someone screech in the distance the last thing she remembered she was being dragged out of fourtrees.
