     She sits and waits for them to work, waiting to stop feeling the world she has called Hell for the last 16 years. She feels heavy, and exhausted, like the world rested on her small shoulders. She takes a deep breath, and feels her body spasm. How long would this take to work? It had been thirty minutes since she took them, and yet she just felt tired. She had expected more. She could her sister singing in the room next to her. A tear crept silently down her cheek at the thought of leaving her sister to fend for herself in the harsh world, but she pushed it away. She just wanted to think of quiet and peace she was on her way too

Who are you to tell me if I'm in control of my mind While you linger behind my thoughts? A protective wall From the truth that is staring into your cold heart. Don't stay back,slowly suffocating me with small jibes and taunts Come forth and see if you can seize control For I a determined to keep my thoughts and soul mine and mine Alone

These scars aren't for you to see   They are a reminder A warning to me To not slip up in society This world demands perfection And I'll be damned before I'm isolated for Slipping up So these cuts are a reminder to keep in control In a society that demands Perfection

She's gone I think they know She can detect her scent on me. Asking Crying Pleading Where is she? They're on watch Never leaving 'Til she's back All the while There her grave sits

This is my first Gathering and there are so many cats here.  My sister, Tawnypaw, and I have only been apprentices for three sunrises. We are still shocked that our mentors, Pebblepelt and Nettleclaw, had decided to let us come.  I'm so nervous because I've never been out of Day Clan's territory before.  Luckily, I have Tawnypaw with me.        "Hey Pebblepelt," my sister began, "who's that she-cat next to Daisystar"        Pebblepelt glanced up toward our golden-pelted leader until he saw the cat she was describing.  "That's Robinstar leader of Night Clan." he said clearly trying to muffle the low growl building in his throat.        T
