The ThunderClan leader, Bramblestar, was discussing to the senior warriors on how they were going to deal with this problem. It was only a few sunrises but they knew the Twoleg may come back, and that is problematic. They do not need a Twoleg scaring away the prey they need.

The gathering was tonight, but they had other things to worry about. "Should we tell the other clans about the Twoleg?" asked Lionblaze. Bramblestar shook his head, "If we do we'll have more then just a Twoleg to deal with." Bramblestar knew tensions were high on the boarders of WindcClan, they still were dying the valley the ThunderClan cats protected. If they knew their attention were somewhere different they may cause more stress to the cats.

It was silent for a bit, guessing they waited for Dustpelt to make a comment. It was more quiet now, when Dustpelt died. The brave warrior usually gave valuable input, and Bramblestar wished he could hear his advice now. "Who is all going to the gathering?" Thornclaw spoke up, trying to break the awkward silence amongst them, it worked. Squirrelflight scanned the camp, thinking for but a moment before responding with an answer.

"Ivypool, Bumblestripe, Lionblaze, Cherryfall, Whitewing, Lilyheart, Snowpaw, and Dewpaw." The deputy started listing off the names as the cats called looked over. Amberpaw came dashing over.

"Don't I get to come?" She begged, eager to join her brothers to the gathering. Spiderleg, her mentor, came over looking at his apprentice. "You know better then to not ask! I'm sure your brothers will tell you when they get back. Now its only sunhigh, lets go on our hunting patrol, Brightheart is waiting." He lifted a paw guiding his apprentice away from the Deputy.

Amberpaw's tail drooped, being disappointed, she followed her mentor to the hunting patrol. As the rest of the Gathering group got ready to leave for nightfall on the Full moon, Brightheart lead her hunting patrol into the woods.

With the pine trees in sight, knowing they were close to the ShadowClan border, the Patrol was about to hunt for their clans prey before they noticed the stench filling their noses. The Twoleg scent was strong, and a voice was from above them. "Why are cats in the wild like this?" The sentence was clear, and the recognizable Twoleg was above them looking down at the cats with a curious gaze.

Amberpaw was the first to noticed, she seemed excited. "Wow!! Twolegs can climb?!" The rest looked to the Twoleg bristling as it hopped down crouching next to the cats. If this Twoleg was going to attack them, they would kill it in a heartbeat. For now, they had their guard up with their claws unsheathed.

"Relax kitties, I'm no enemy to animals." It looked at the patrol. Spiderleg growled, as Amberpaw looked at the She-Twoleg. "What's its name!" The curious apprentice asked, thinking the patrol knew. Obviously they didn't, but the Twoleg didn't pleased about the apprentice talking like she wasn't there. Instead she introduced herself annoyed.

"I'm Ginna! And I'm not and it I'm a she!" She seemed to growl. Amberpaw seemed more excited.

"Look She understands us!!" Hopping around the strange Twoleg. Ginna looked to the cat and at the patrol, who didn't seem pleased. She seemed slightly amused by the young cat, and sat back in the grass as the other cats seemed to eye her with caution.

"Why are you here?" Brightheart asked unsheathing her claws. Ginna didn't seem frightened at all. In fact she seemed glad that the cat had asked her such a question. Like she was waiting for this the whole time. So she responded, and the answer seemed to surprise most of the patrol.

"I just want to help out! I hear you cats talking and I feel the need to help, I don't have any parents and I know how to survive alone. It seems I intrude on your territory since that flood... so might as well help out!" Gina explained as best she can, the cats looked at each other confused. A Twoleg in ThunderClan?
