“Got it.”
Minnowpaw glanced around for a dryer place to sit.
“How about over there.”
She pointed with her tail towards a semi dry area near the edge of the clearing.
“It’ll be better than this.”
She gestured again towards her soaked pelt.
“I look like a black cat after all this rain!”
She wasn’t sure if her feeble attempt at a joke would cheer her friend up, but it was worth the shot!
Juniperpaw
21/100
Smiling she followed her friend to the shade, “And I look like a white cat covered in ash.”

Okay, Lightningpaw didn't seem all that irritated at her. That was good. Springpaw let loose a tight, shaky exhale as Lightningpaw responded to the panicking calico, as if trying to keep her at bay. In all honesty? It didn’t feel it was helping much, even if Springpaw could heavily use the comfort and confidence that she desired. Her eyes glanced briefly towards the charade of cats, her ears angling themselves in their direction as a brief moment of puzzlement flashed through Springpaw’s eyes. What’s with the commotion down there? Why did it sound like there was someone… Who died?
Dread overcame the calico like a storm, the cold rain feeling like it was pressing her fur against her body like an heavy anvil. Why would someone just die in a gathering? From what she had gathered, she supposed that some rogue snuck into the gathering and two ShadowClan warriors handled it. Or, rather, one of them simply just killed the rogue by a simple killing strike to the throat. Springpaw felt her chest tightened against its grasp as her heart throbbed from the heavy unease that bore through her like a hurricane. Great StarClan she just wished she was home now.
Springpaw jumped slightly by the sound of her mentor’s soft voice coming from behind, her oceanic hues rapidly shifting in her direction as she ticked tabby spoke. In regards to her asking if she wanted to take a short break from the gathering, Springpaw eagerly nodded her head. Springpaw felt like her heart was bound to pop out of her chest by any chance if she sat here any longer. These cats probably meant no harm—except maybe Elmshadow—but Springpaw felt like her anxiety and panic was on a roll. Heck, she didn’t even notice poor Cowtuft making his appearance there due to her heavy anxiety. “P… P-Please,” she croaked, glancing up at Drizzlecloud was a heavy yearning in her eyes, “I need a short break. I… I-I’m not used to this yet. Not yet...” She mumbled, voice only loud enough for merely the kind molly to hear.
Sadly, it was true. The whole gathering had been nothing but a heavy hazard for the molly and everything felt like it was wearing her down. Surely she’ll get used to this soon, right? Springpaw desperately hoped so. She wanted to try to make herself comfortable. Try to introduce herself to these other medicine cats without making herself look like a fool. Without her stuttering and voice breaking at every second; along with the heavy dreadful awaiting of outgoing terrible drama possibly happening at this gathering, Springpaw felt less prepared than what she had originally hoped for.

FrogPaw didn’t show up until later due to her own personal chores… After sleeping in for a little too long, she had to do her duties with utmost care. Finally arriving, she made eye contact with someone she was once very fond of… ScalePaw… he looked so big now, muscular… FrogPaw felt nervous. However, as she made her way over, she heard some words that would crush her…
No…
He moved on…
I’m not special anymore…
He already forgot about me…?
FrogPaws heart sunk and she felt herself wanting to puke… everything was so loud, and too much was happening. Her first love, her true love, had found better. Someone prettier, Someone more interesting, and someone definitely more deserving of his heart than herself… The brown mollie fails miserably at not making a scene as she begins to back into someone (open,) and let’s out a shriek loud enough for everyone to hear…
It’s too loud, it’s too loud, it’s too loud…!
Shaking her head, she bites her tongue to hold back tears… She didn’t know if she was allowed to go home but she wanted to… She wanted to so badly…
I learned my lesson, StarClan…

"Oh.. hah, I see.." Mothdapple replied with a nervous chukle. She eyed Nightspark, what a strange cat.. Mothdapple herself had always been on the more emotional side, and she couldn't imagine how some cats could feel so cold about the death of others, especially clanmates. Well, each to their own, she thought. Wrapping her tail around her paws, she quietly looked away, over at the seastones.
So many things to see! So many cats to stare at! Starrypaw probably looked like a freak doing so, to be honest. Practically panting with her excitement, the long-haired molly barely even noticed the cat approaching her until she was bombarded by an onslaught of words.
And boy, Starrypaw was glad to answer them. "Hullo!" She responded cheerily, rapid-fire and not missing a beat as the RiverClanner beside her badgered on. "I'm Wre-" Skies, she'd almost introduced herself as Wrenny. That wouldn't do at all. "I'm Starrypaw! Oooh, RiverClan! Yeah I'm from ShadowClan! I.. smell? This is my first Gathering, yeah! I just told you my name, silly!" Breathing heavily as she finished the montage of words, Starrypaw finally got a good look at her new friend.
"Oh! You're quite sma-"
Starrypaw never got to finish, for someone had run straight into her back. And then they'd shrieked so loud Starrypaw's ears were still ringing. "Crikey!" The black and white molly yapped with alarm in her trademark British accent, whirling around to fixate wide green eyes on her assailant. But one look at Frogpaw had Starrypaw doing a double-take, startlement long forgotten. "Ya good, mate?"
Dawnbreeze blushed and blinked slowly. "I would love to be your mate, Scalescar."

Dawnbreeze, after seeing Scalescar gulp and hearing a cat's shriek, asked him, "Are you ok?
You seem to be anxious all of a sudden."
She peered closely at him. "Do you know who shrieked?" She turned and searched for the cat. A brown she-cat seemed to be having a hard time controlling her emotions. "Do you know her?" Dawnbreeze meowed turning back to Scalescar.

• Cormorantpaw •
long-furred smoky-black mackerel tabby molly with bits of white; yellow eyes
_________________________________________________
Starrypaw? Pretty name for a not-so-scary Shadow Kitty, in Cormorantpaw’s opinion. Cormorantpaw began to let out thrilled giggles in response to her questions being answered, sticking out her tongue in expanse of the apprentice ahead of her. “That’s great to hear that it’s your first gathering! And you don’t smell! You just… uh…” the two moon old molly paused for a moment, raising a white-tipped paw to gently tap at her chin for a moment as she thought of a good response to say, “… I don’t know! You just smell like a weird pinecone! Do all Shadow Kitties smell like that? Weird pinecones? If so, then what do I smell like to you all?” she questioned with a simple tilt of her head, lips curled into a rather large beaming grin up at her fellow acquaintance, feeling as if she will get along just fine with her. Starrypaw seemed fun to be around for a Shadow Kitty!
Then, somebody bumped into her new friend! And they decided to scream very loudly, probably enough to rupture someone’s eardrums. Ouch. Cormorantpaw stumbled a little in response to the loud screech, ears quickly pressing against her little head as her front paws rapidly moved to press against her pinned ears, wincing slightly from the loud sound. This resulted with her clumsily flopping into the sand, causing her almost completely jet-black striped fur to cake more with sand. Boy, she was gonna need a bath from Auntie Lily when she got home, and she knew Auntie Lily wasn’t gonna like seeing her all dirty. “Wowzieee,” she awed, glancing up in the screamer’s direction with wide yellow depths, “you surely got some lungs! Not even I can be that loud!” She explained, taking her paws off her ears just so she could look at the newcomer. She looked… scared? Stressed? Worried? Meh, all the words that Cormorantpaw couldn’t properly understand.

Minnowpaw
Minnowpaw laughed a little, this gathering so far had gone very unexpectedly and Minnowpaw wasn’t sure if she was ready for another.
“I think your pelt is perfect.” She told her friend happily.

Juniperpaw

Giving a bright smile, Juniper wrapped her tail around her paws, though still raining, the spot they had picked certainly had sheltered them a bit. Pelt now drying, she began to groom down the dried fluffs. “Thanks, I like yours too”
