((Loving how Fox has very swiftly become the 'always-getting-hurt' cat x'D )) ((pffbt I figure all the apprentices are prone to getting hurt in this kind of environment but if u think it's fitting for that to be her thing, then, I can do nothing but encourage it)) |

((Aspenwhisker can go to the herbalists w/ the others or I think there's more than one cat Hangin Around . . . I could have Skysong finally emerge from the Ancestor's Hall where she's been hiding, like, this entire time,,)) |

- - Lighttail
Lighttail noticed the wounded hunters and guards and jumped to her feet. "What happened to you?" she asked, squinting at the cats. "Hold on. I need to get Sandstripe and Maplefall. Are there more? There are always more. SANDSTRIPE. MAPLEFALL." She shook her head. "I don't know where they are. Come and get yourselves settled. Take some leaves or something to stop the bleeding while you wait." She gestured to a gathering of nests and began to grab herbs and look for the herbalists.
- - Flamewhisker
"Really, it's no problem. It's my job," he mewed, smiling. Flamewhisker sighed and padded near a nest. He figured his injuries weren't bad enough to have to lie down, but when Lighttail shot him a seething glare, he sat on a nest immediately. He picked up a leaf and pressed it against his cheek.
- - Tawnyclaw
Tawnyclaw had made her way to the herbalist, wincing from the pain in her side. She sat down in a nest and waited for an herbalist to show up when Lighttail left to find them. Ugh. This system is completely broken down. It's job to heal us, not just sit there, she thought, licking her wounds.

Duskstorm collapsed on a nest next to Flamewhisker, closing his eyes tightly against the pain as he tried to level and deepen his breathing. He couldn't be seen as weak to the other cats.

- - Flamewhisker
Flamewhisker looked over to Duskstorm with a tinge of sadness. He'd never heard of a cat getting hurt by a fox sitting on them, so he must have been embarrassed- at least he thought. This guy I can't figure out. One minute he's running away from me like a scared rabbit, the next he's fighting like a fox on catmint. Do foxes even like catmint? he wondered. He stored the thoughts away to ponder them another time. He placed a couple of broad leaves in front of him to stop and bleeding wounds from getting worse, which was the best Flamewhisker could do to stop his own bleeding.

- - Sandstripe
Sandstripe lifted her ears when she heard Lighttail go into frantic-mode and turned around. She gasped at the band of beaten up cats coming into the garden.
"What in ancestor's name happened to you all?" she cried. She ran to Duskstorm first, seeing that he was in the worst shape. "Where does it hurt? Flamewhisker, thank you for helping, but please move aside--you're pressing too hard and I can't see what his injuries are."

He'd had more social interaction for the day than he cared for. 'It's just my leg, Sandstripe. The fox rolled on me and I think it must have twisted it or something. It hurts to move it and I can't put weight on it.' He lifted his head slightly to look at his leg. Duskstorm WAS embarrassed. It wasn't everyday someone got crushed by a fox and was injured. |

Noticing the patrol in need of help, Maplefall rushed over worriedly. She surveyed the injuries quickly before bouncing on her paws, unsure if she should go collect some more herbs or take note of everyone's injuries.
"Whee are you hurt? How much does it hurt? Who needs attention first?" She asked, lashing her tail out behind me. Worry sparked in her brain, making all the others' responses seem much too slow. "Answer me!"

- - Lighttail
"Aspen and Airhead. Get over here," she demanded, gesturing to Flamewhisker and Aspenwhisker and earning a frown from the orange tom-cat. "Maplefall, get your mouse-dung together and help me with these two. Anyone else who needs help can come to us. You too Rosebriar." She flicked her tail quite rudely and walked over to another patch of nests that were surrounded by minor-wound plants.
- - Flamewhisker
Flamewhisker reluctantly followed, not wanting to ensue Lighttail's wrath any more so than he already had in the past couple minutes. Pressing too hard. I'll press to hard on this flower, he thought as he held his paw just above a marigold. Although I don't want them to kill me so... He decided t just let the flower and the crazy medicine cats be.
- - Tawnyclaw
Not wanting to deal with Lighttail's tantrums, and feeling bad for Maplefall when she realized that poor cat had to deal with her too, she stumbled over to Sandstripe's nest clump. "When you get a chance..," she mewed blankly, pointing to her wounds with her tail.

- - Sandstripe
Sandstripe inhaled sharply as she examined the inured leg. "You'll need comfrey and nettle leaves for the leg. I hope we have enough goldenrod." She darted around the garden, gathering the herbs she needed. She chewed the comfrey into a pulp, then spit it onto a leaf and applied it to his leg. She handed him the nettle leaves. "Eat these," she commanded, then glanced at Tawnyclaw.
"All this from one fox? And Flamewhisker was the only guard with you?" she exclaimed, darting between Duskstorm and Tawnyclaw and trying to stop both their wounds with cobwebs.
((I'm going to go to sleep soon, too, so I might make one or two more posts, but if not, I'll see you guys tomorrow! c: ))

(I'm turning in soon too. Sort of goodnight, if I don't post.  ) - - Tawnyclaw"No, he wasn't the only guard. Thunderheart was there and he tried to defend us, but a fox just threw him across the clearing. I'm not sure where he is..," she realized as she looked around the garden. Where did he go? She seemed to recall him going in a different direction, and didn't think much of it at the time. "He was pretty badly hurt..." |

Aspenwhisker walked over to Lighttail. "I'm fine really." She mewed feeling okay. Aspenwhisker had a scape or two but had been one of the lucky ones.

"Are you sure you don't want any herbs?" Maplefall asked Aspenwhisker. "Even scrapes can get infected, and we can give you poppy seed for pain." She turned to Tawnyclaw. "Do you have any idea where Thunderheart went? His injuries sound severe!"

"Um no clue actually." Aspenwhisker simply did as she had been told. She knew Thunderheart had wandered off but had no idea where. "Actually um I could use some herbs." She said sheepishly.

Me and Flamewhisker took care of the first one, everyone else took care of the second.' Duskstorm quietly explained as he ate the nettle leaves, wrinkling his nose with distaste. 'Thunderheart was with us too, but he was taken out almost instantly.' He flicked his tail and finished eating the leaves, before laying his head down. |

((That sounds good to me, if that's okay with Peppermint!))
- - Sandstripe
". . . Oh. I see." Sandstripe frowned. "Well, I suppose that's Thunderheart for you," she said with a hint of sharpness--but she caught herself before saying anything more, because she knew that even someone as useful as her wasn't exempt from punishment if she was caught saying treasonous things.
- - Thunderheart
Thunderheart dropped the fresh kill in the grand hall. He took a deep breath and started making his way to the garden, his tail hanging low behind him as he walked. He had hoped going on the patrol would lift his spirits and take his mind off of the state of his brother and niece for a bit, but that hadn't exactly happened.

'It did come out of nowhere and shake him.' Duskstorm said. Though he wasn't loyal to the family he wasn't about to allow poor thunderheart get seen as weak; he had tried, after all. 'He got back up and still tried to fight.' He added, examining her curiously. He wondered about the sharp tone in her voice. |

Aspenwhisker flicks her tail slowly. She had to agree with Duskstorm. "I'm sure he will be here soon."

- - Sandstripe
"Yes, but I told him he shouldn't--" she trailed off and shook her head, busying herself with applying goldenrod to the cats' wounds.
- - Thunderheart
Thunderheart limped into the garden, doing his best to keep his posture casual and light-hearted. "Is everyone all right?" he asked.

(I'm good with Oak being Duskstorm's apprentice!)
"There you are!" Maplefall exclaimed. "Where are you hurt? We heard you were injured badly." She dropped a few herbs in front of Aspenwhisker and rushed to Thunderheart's side. "What happened? Where were you?" She paced around him, looking for injuries. "Someone find his injuries. Lighttail, what do you need me to do?"

(Sorry about not responding with Dewfern. I didn't see that post.  ) - - Lighttail"We need to get him over to a nest now," she stated. Lighttail began to pick up herbs and usher him over. Ah. The idiot is back, she thought with a roll of her eyes. "Please get herbs, Maplefall. Thunderheart, take this." She handed him the bundle of herbs she prescribed to Stoneheart. "This is for the King." - - Dewfern Dewfern jumped back from the doorway when her father walked in. "I was-" She was surprised to see Icefang with Stoneheart, as he seemed to have far less contact with her than Thunderheart. "Hello Icefang," she greeted as she bowed her head quickly before turning back to her father. "I was just thinking. And leaning." She smiled and flicked her silvery ear casually. |

- - Thunderheart
"I'm fine, I'm fine," Thunderheart lied. "We were taken by surprise by a couple of foxes, but our hunters fought valiantly. They won't be coming back if they know what's good for them." He tried to hide his injuries, but let the herbalists usher him into a nest. When Lighttail pushed the bundle of herbs toward him, his eyes glinted and he looked around to make sure no one besides the Maplefall and Lighttail were in earshot.
"Did he visit you today? Is he ill?" he asked, taking on a hushed, serious tone.
- - Sandstripe
The old herbalist watched Thunderheart be herded away from the others and sighed under her breath. "He looks terrible. Looks like he and Duskstorm got the worst of it," she said. "I've told him he's getting too old to fight. He has to take care of himself, especially after--well, that's none of my business." Although she clearly seemed to think it was her business, she shut up and put more cobwebs on Tawnyclaw's wounds.
- - Stoneheart
". . . You shouldn't be down here alone, Dewfern. Your room is the safest place in the castle for you," Stoneheart said. "Come, let's go upstairs. I brought Icefang along for you to talk to. I know you get bored talking to my brother." It didn't seem to cross Stoneheart's mind that he could be boring in any way, nor did he consider whether or not Icefang even wanted to talk to Dewfern, or whether the two of them would have anything to talk about in the first place. Rather than waste time thinking about the people around him, he began stiffly climbing up the staircase.

- - Lighttail
Lighttail sighed. "Look Thunderheart. He's made it very clear that he's fine, and I wouldn't be surprised if me telling you he's ill would cause him to burst through that bush and throw me in the Rat's Nest." She pointed to the bush a few feet away and pushed the bundle to his feet. "So I don't think he is physically ill, but I prescribed some poppy seeds and chamomile for his mental health." She picked up a small ball of cobwebs and attempted to stick them onto his bleeding neck.
- - Dewfern
"Okay..," she mewed, slightly confused. Is this really what my social circle has been reduced to? My father bringing in one cat for me to talk to and not letting me even leave my room? Dewfern began to follow her father upstairs, leaving her anxiety at the doorway and focusing on the fact that she had someone to talk to. Maybe I'll have fun?
