"Oh!" Midnightclaw said as she noticed Doveblaze sprinted over towards her.
        "I missed you, silly! How are you?" She said with a calm and inviting voice and a smile as Doveblaze sat beside her. Sunstrike walks over and sits next to Doveblaze.
    "Who is this?" Sunstrike says with a jealous tone.
    "I'm Midnightclaw! You must be Sunstrike I assume? I've heard a lot about you from my other clanmates!" Midnightclaw says with a kind voice.
    "Yes, I am." Sunstrike lost the jealous tone, but she still glared at Midnightclaw.
    "I'm good, I've made a few friends." Doveblaze said with a smile. Midnightclaw smiled and looked over at Sunstrike. Sunstrike still was glaring at Midnightclaw a little, but trying to smile.
    "So how are you liking the gathering?" Midnightclaw asks. Suddenly, Doveblaze sees StormClan arrive.
    Storm is here!? And he's a deputy!? Doveblaze sees the grey and blue eyed tom walking next to the leader. Storm sees Doveblaze and she immediately turns around and is embarrassed for staring.
    "Hide me!" Doveblaze says sprinting behind Midnightclaw and Sunstrike.
    "What is it? Wait.. Is that the cat you were talking about?!" Sunstrike asks in a loud tone. Storm starts to walk over and Doveblaze stops hiding and sits confidently.
    "Dove? You're in SunClan now, right?" Storm asked in a peaceful tone.
    "Oh.. Haha.. Yeah!" Doveblaze says.
    "Who are your friends?" Midnightclaw and Sunstrike glare at the tall tom cat with jealousy.
    "So.. You're a deputy now?" Doveblaze asks.
    "Ah, yes.. I guess some things change." He smiles at Doveblaze.
    "So.. What's your warrior name?" Doveblaze asks him.
    "Oh, it's HailStorm. And you?" He says.
    "Hailstorm.. That's a great name.. Haha I mean.. uhm.. my warrior name is Doveblaze!" Doveblaze blurts out. Midnightclaw and Sunstrike glare even harder at him.
    What is wrong with me!? Why is this so awkward? Why am I so awkward!? Doveblaze thinks.
    "That's a beautiful name. And what are their names?" He asked with a polite voice.
    "Oh uh.. This is Midnightclaw and Sunstrike." Doveblaze says. They snap back to reality and awkwardly smile.    
    "Well, I better get going. It was nice to see you again, Doveblaze." He dips his head and starts walking over to his clan.
    "Bye!" Doveblaze says awkwardly.
    "Who is that? An old friend I assume?" Midnightclaw asks with a smile.
    "Oh, yeah.." Doveblaze answers.
    "That was Storm!? Your friend is a deputy!?" Sunstrike asks.
    "Apparently." Doveblaze shrugs.
    "Hello, Midnightclaw." A white cat with sky blue eyes and a greyish brown toned tail and pelt walked over and sat next to Midnightclaw.
    "Hey, Fernwing!" Midnightclaw smiled at the sight of the cat.
    "Who are these cats?" Fernwing asked.
    "This is Doveblaze and Sunstrike." Midnightclaw points at Doveblaze and Sunstrike with her paw.
    "Nice to meet you." Doveblaze grinned.
    "You're the kittypet, right?" Fernwing asked with politeness.
    "Oh, yeah. I am." Doveblaze was honestly tired of this question. Doveblaze was a warrior.
    "I can't believe you killed a rogue. That was brave, you know." Fernwing said with a smile.
    "Haha yeah.." Doveblaze chuckled awkwardly.
    "Doveblaze, we have to go." Sunstrike said as the clans started leaving.
    "Oh! Bye, Doveblaze. I'll miss you." Midnightclaw smiles.
    "Bye, Midnightclaw." Doveblaze waved but Midnightclaw grabbed her paw.
    "Meet me at the forest at sundown." Midnightclaw whispered. Doveblaze nodded and Midnightclaw gave her a hug before she started to walk back.

    "What was that about?" Sunstrike asked with a confused expression. She had a hint of jealousy in her voice.
    "Oh, nothing. Why? Are you jealous?" Doveblaze smirked and Sunstrike widened her eyes and blushed with embarrassment.
    "What!? No!" Sunstrike scowled and rolled her eyes.
    "Kidding!" Doveblaze laughs. Sunstrike rolls her eyes again and smiles to herself. Doveblaze walks back to her den and lays down. She begins to go on a spiral of thinking.
    What if I get caught meeting Midnightclaw? I mean, I have always been a stubborn cat.. Doveblaze thinks. She really never did play by the rules. Especially when she was living with the two-legs. And now that she's in a clan, it's even harder to be sneaky, a clan trying to keep everything in order and stubborn cats don't mix well. That was just who she was, though. It's not like she wanted to.. But breaking the rules was much more fun. Especially when you're enclosed from your friends in a different clan. She sighs. When will the clans finally have peace? She didn't know, but all she wanted was to have friends and not have to hide away from them for her whole life as a warrior. Doveblaze guessed that was just how her life was supposed to be. She couldn't run away from it, kittypet or not. Doveblaze looks at the sky and sees that the sun is beginning to set.
    Almost time to meet up with Midnightclaw. Doveblaze smiled and laid down in her den next to Sunstrike. She fell asleep immediately.
