🍒Cherry's POV😺
It's been almost a moon since I joined ThunderClan. My apprentice ceremony was coming very soon, and I was excited and nervous at the same time. Bristlekit, Stemkit, and Graykit were almost six moons old, so we would probably be apprenticed at the same time. I have grown close to them, and they were like my kin. There were many things I didn't know yet about Clan life, but I knew about the warrior code. Some cats weren't used to me. I knew that was because I was a former kittypet. But one thing I don't understand is why they hate kittypets. They never did anything. In fact, there are many things I don't understand about the warrior code, or Clan life! Even so, I'm getting used to ThunderClan life, and everyone seems to be nice. I learned basic stuff like that the deputy assigns cats to go on hunting or border patrols, and the leader has nine lives.
The elders told stories about Firestar, who was described as courageous, understanding, and warmhearted. His friend, Graystripe, was just an apprentice when he met Firestar, who was called Rusty at that time. Graystripe had only died a few moons ago as an elder. He was one of the Lights in the Mist, who were cats that had been to the Dark Forest to defeat Ashfur.
There wasn't much to do, besides talking and playing. I've already explored the whole camp and listened to the elders' stories. All I could do is walk around camp, talking to some of the warriors and apprentices, playing with the kits, and watch as cats talk, laugh, eat, and go on patrols.
Sometimes I thought about the other clans. What were they doing? Were other kits just as bored as I was? Many questions ran through my head. What are the other clans like? How do they live? I wanted to ask those questions to somebody, but I knew I would get in trouble or end up with 'I don't know'. It was so frustrating keeping these questions to myself when I desperately wanted answers.
One night, I heard Bramblestar saying something about a 'gathering'. I was puzzled. What was a 'Gathering'? I saw a group of cats leave the camp. I asked the other kits, "What is a Gathering?". Stemkit answered "Oh, you don't know what it is? I heard that it is when cats from every Clan peacefully meet up on the night of the full moon,". I looked up, and Stemkit was right. It is a full moon! I suddenly realized that I was getting sleepy, so I walked back to my nest, curled up, and fell asleep.
