"Er, okay! See you then!" Finchpaw stood up and stretched before heading home with the herbs she had collected.

The brown Tom quickly turned away and left.
(aaaand back at camp)
Finchpaw arranged the herbs in the medicine den. "Hey, Silverbrook? When's the next meeting at the moonstone?"
"The Moonpool meeting? Hummm, its a day or two, after the gathering." Pushing a pile of thyme away from the catmint, Silverbrook glanced over at her apprentice, "You have the horsetail?"
"Yes, I got it." She passed the horsetail to Silverbrook. He said he'd be there, so we can talk more. She sat down and kneaded the ground with her claws.
"Your thinking?" Silverbrook put in as he placed the horsetail down in its proper place, "Did you meet any Windclan warriors?"
"Hmm? Oh, no warriors. I met the medicine cat apprentice though." Finchpaw said cheerfully. "His name's Oakpaw, and he said he'd be at the next meeting at the moonpool."
"Oakpaw? So Icebreeze did get a new apprentice, I wonder why he did not bring him last time or even tell us about him."
Finchpaw shrugged. "He said he was taking care of a finicky queen."
"But Icebreeze could have at least told us about him! Its very important to know who the new medicine cats will be!"
"True. Icebreeze isn't the most social… or he could have took on an apprentice recently. Though I'm pretty sure Oakpaw is older than I am."
"Older or not…" Silverbrook muttered, shacking her head, "I remember Icebreeze when he was just an apprentice, he was so nice and sweet… And… And then something happened, I don't know what, but it changed him."
"Really? Do you have any theories? Because I highly doubt he'd tell you."
"Nope, after the accident of 'Who knows what happened", he became very stubborn and would never tell us anything, and I think his mentor helped with his new personality."
"That's sad… I hope he's still able to sympathize with the cats he's healing; I've always found that helpful."
"Nahh, he's too old! He changed when he was young and he will stay like that always."
"Hmm…" Finchpaw thought for a moment. "Do you know how old he is?"
"Old enough! I hope he doesn't die before Oakpaw receives his medicine at name."
"That would be unfortunate… Perhaps he took on an apprentice because he knew he was getting old?"
"Of course! He did not take an apprentice because he wanted company."
Finchpaw laughed softly. "No, I'd think not. He hates kits in general."
"Yes… Well, besides his two nephews, Gorseclaw and Pebblestream, he gets so pathetic when one of those get hurts."
"Really? I didn't know he had nephews. I suppose he has a brother or sister, then?"
"His sisters name is Snowfall, she is a beautiful snow white cat. She has a long fluffy tail and her fur is ever so soft, even I wish I looked like her!"
"She sounds lovely. I'm pretty sure Goldenpaw's going to have kits. She loves them. She said that she wanted four of her own and two adopted, because it breaks her heart to see abandoned kits." (Tru story btw, that's what my sister says lol)
