"Hello Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie." Celestia mewed as the two apprentices entered her den. "Hello, Celestia." Rainbow and Pinkie said incision and dipped their heads. "Look, we're sorry-" "I want you two at the Gathering tonight. So I want you to go to Tech for some traveling herbs then I want you to get some rest. We leave at sunset." Celestia mewed not even looking at the apprentices. She just started at the wall of her den which was strange in every way to Rainbow.

At sunset Rainbow was awoken by Pinkie. "Come on, Dashie! We gotta leave with the others." Rainbow slowly stood up from her nest and stretched. "Let's go then..." Rainbow meowed when she was done with her stretches.

When the two apprentices got out of their den they saw Celestia, Cadence, Tech Scratch, Luna, Starswhirl, and some other warriors. "Finally!" An orange she-cat with a blonde tail growled, "These apprentices take forever. Why I could've takin' another nap with their speed." "Shush Darling! Their new apprentice plus they have just awoken from their beauty sleep." A white she-cat with a royal purple tail defended Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie. "Thanks for defending us Rarity," Pinkie mewed to the kind warrior, "Applejack sure is being a meanie today!" Rainbow smacked Pinkie in the back if her head with her tail, "Pinkie shush! We don't need any more trouble today." Rainbow whispered to her friend who just ignored her. "No problem darling, she's just upset because Big Macintosh was wounded in the battle against RiverClan and had to stay in Tech's den." Rarity explained to Pinkie Pie as the withe she-cat licked her paw an rubbed it against her head. "I'm mad 'cause Luna sent me home before I could get mah claws on the tom that hurt my littermate!" Applejack growled, her green eyes glowing with frustration. "Um...Applejack can you please calm down your scaring me." A yellow queen mewed quietly, twitching her curly pink tail. "Oh, sorry Fluttershy. I jus' don't know what happen' when I get angry." Applejack apologized. "It's ok..." the queen mumbled looking down at the forest floor. "ThunderClan cats! Let's roll us!" Celestia yowled getting the attention if her Clan.
