Chapter 6

Willowpaw: skinny black she-cat with green eyes

Allex: cream and white tom with blue eyes

Oreoleaf: Black and white tom with light green eyes. FlowerClan medicine cat

It's been weeks sense Whitepaw left the camp. Willowpaw was eating prey with Alex. They both had talked a lot. About how they miss Whitepaw, how they don't feel comfortable in camp, and how Willowpaw did not have feelings for Alex. Alex learned to accept that, and they just became friends. Everyday they talk about Whitepaw. They really do miss him. Willowpaw took the last bite of her squirrel and looked at Alex. He sighed. "Let's go back to the apprentice's den. Amberfur told me to rest." He said. Willowpaw nodded and they both headed to the den. When Willowpaw was wallking, she heard Oreoleaf say something. "Willowpaw." The FlowerClan medicine cat said. Willowpaw looked at him. "I'd like to talk to you." He said again. Willowpaw looked at Alex. "I'll be right back." She said. Alex nodded. Then she padded into the medicine den with Oreoleaf. When she entered she saw the light from the sun in the small hole on the ceiling. She also saw the herbs stacked neatly on the shelves. Oreoleaf sat down on the sand. When Willowpaw sat down, he sighed. "Willowpaw, are you feeling okay with your training? Whitepaw leaving seems to make you and Alex miserable." He said. Willowpaw knew the truth. It wasn't just the fact that Whitepaw left. It was also because her and Alex didn't feel happy in this clan. She finally spoke. "yes, we are very sad that he left..." She began feeling awkward. Oreoleaf looked at her like he knew that wasn't it. "I might sound crazy about what I'm going to tell you. But moons ago, when you were born, a StarClan cat came to me in my dreams. It...It was a former IvyClan cat." He began. Willowpaw looked puzzled. She didn't think he was crazy, he's the medicine cat. But why would a StarClan cat from IvyClan come to him? Then he started speakinng again. "I know you don't feel comfortable here in FlowerClan-" He broke off by Willowpaw. "Yes! I don't like it here! Everybody is so quiet! I'm learning the same training, and I hate sleeping on sand!" She suddenly felt good getting all that off her chest. "Have you ever thought of joining a new clan?" Oreoleaf asked. Willowpaw hesitated. She always thought of joining a new clan. Was that legal? She decided to be honest and answer. "Yes, all the time." The medicine cat didn't look surprised. He just kept nodding. "That's understandable. The StarClan cat told me to tell you this. And it is very important. Look at your paw pads." He said. Willowpaw didn't understand the last part. But she went on with it and lifted her paw to see her pads. "They're thin. And Willowpaw, you're not flexible like the other cats." He said again. Willowpaw never thought of it like that. She wasn't built like a FlowerClan cat! But how? Both her father and mother were FlowerClan cats. But Willowpaw was built like a...like a.... an IvyClan cat..."The StarClan cat told me that you must leave FlowerClan, and join IvyClan." Oreoleaf said at last. Willowpaw was shocked. Why woukd StarClan send me away? Was it a mistake for her to be born here? "I-I don't know what to say." She added. Oreoleaf looked at her with sorrow. "I know this is hard, Willowpaw. I know you are going through a lot right now. But-" He broke off. "Yeah, I am going through a lot. And I never wanted to be a mistake!" She yowled. Oreoleaf quickly replied. "You are not a mistake. I was just about to tell you, Willowpaw. The StarClan cat also told me that you, might be, The Gift." Willowpaw's eyes opened wide. The Gift? Her? Nonsense! "I-" She stuttered. "This is so much to take in. Are you sure StarClan said this?" She asked. Oreoleaf blinked at her. Oh yes, this is the medicine cat. Why would he not be right?  She thought. "By tomorrow, Willowpaw, you should leave. You don't belong here. I will tell Hopestar everything." He said. Willowpaw looked down. She was so unsure about this. "Where will I go?" She asked. "You will go to IvyClan." He answered. "Can I bring Alex?" She asked. "If he wants to, StarClan didn't say you couldn't bring somecat." He answered again. Willowpaw was full of thoughts. She had to go to a new clan. And she had to ask Alex to come. She nodded, then turned to the exit.
