P.S That is Moonlight.

Silverpaw woke up the next morning ready for the gathering. She rushed outside noticing that no one was there.  She looked in the medicine cat den, she found nothing but her herbs. Then she into the warrior's den. Once again no one. She looked in the elder's den and the queen's den, she saw nothing but empty bedding. She guessed no one was in the leader's den so she went to the apprentice's den remembering that she thinks that they are there. When she walked in no cat was inside "Someone would have woke me if we were leaving..."  she thought. She went to the leader's den hoping he was there. She went inside and saw everyone there. she ran up to Bramblepaw and asked, "Whats happening?" "It's Darkstar he never ate last night and he won't wake up. Gray went to go find his friend before we came in here." Silverpaw walked up closer to Darkstar to see what was wrong. The medicine cat was standing over his body with a scared look on her face. "Can I help?" Silverpaw asked. "Thank goodness, These are poppy seeds, that is burdock root, and that's cobweb. Those help with pane, that helps defect wounds, and that stops the bleeding. Those are simple things but I don't think any of them will help us..." "Do you know what is wrong?" Dawnleaf shook her head sadly. "Maybe... He can't get up!" Silverpaw mewed "You might be right!" Dawnleaf checked to see if he was still breathing, when she found out he was, she checked his eyes. "There open and moving! But I still don't know what is wrong!" Gray rushed in with a she-cat by his side. the she-cat ran up to Darkstar and put her teeth around his neck. she closed her jaw, but instead of his neck bleeding he jumped and was able to stand up. "Are you ok?" The she-cat asked. Raindrop jumped on her as soon as he had a clear shot. "YOU NEARLY KILLED OUR LEADER!"He splat "Raindrop you can let her go, she helped me." Darkstar said in a calm voice. Raindrop backed off the she-cat but keeping an eye on her. "What is your name?" Darkstar asked the young she-cat "My name is Mud" She replied. "Well, Mud," Dawnleaf stepped forward. "How would you like to be a medicine cat?" "What is that?" She asked. "Come I will show you." Dawnleaf and Mud walked out of the den and the others followed. Silverpaw went to Sunnyrocks hoping to see Nightpaw, she must have had luck because he was by the river fishing. "Hello, Nightpaw." She greeted "How are you doing?" "Good..." "Whats wrong?" "My mother Moonlight is acting sick..." "I'm sorry, but the same is happening to my brother." "Wow... what luck." "I know right. So whatcha up to?" "Fishing, you?" "Just taking a walk." "C-can I tell you something?" "Sure, anything!" "I-uh never mind, I better get going before my mentor starts to worry." "Ok, Bye." "Bye" Silverpaw went back to camp. By the time she got back it was already time to leave for the gathering. She checked all the dens to be sure no-cat was left behind. They started towards the gathering when Snowpaw came up Silverpaw. "Hi," He mewed "Hello." She replied, "I can't what until all this is done and we can go home and curl up in our moss and go to sleep." "I'm with you I don't think that long nap yesterday worked." They got to the top of the hill and looked down at Fourtrees. There were probably more cats there than in the hole forest! They ran down the hill and right away when they entered the gathering Silverpaw set off to find the others.
