Softpaw listened to what Speckledlily had to say and nodded. "I know it may be hard, but you have to refrain from gulping down water when it is hot outside. Next time you need to drink water, just remember to drink some slowly. Drinking water more slowly should stop those stomachaches from happening," she meowed. "Just don't let yourself get dehydrated, you can do that without having to gulp down a lot of water," she meowed looking at the warrior as she spoke. "If you do end up getting a stomachache again, just stop by the medicine den, me or my mentor will give you something for it," she meowed.

Robinfeather woke up with a start, seeing the light flow into the den. You mousebrain! Why'd you wake up so late? You have duties! The deputy chastised himself, leaping onto his feet and darting out of the den to see a patrol had already left. Speckledlily and Softpaw were speaking, and him and Speckledlily would be too small of a patrol to be worth it, so he hoped that the other patrol would briefly check the borders, too. He padded over towards them, hearing a brief part of the conversation about Speckledlily having stomach aches. "I hope everything's alright," he mewed, glancing at the two as he was unsure if he was welcome or not.

Speckledlily nodded respectfully to her. "Thank you, I'll be sure to do that!" she mewed brightly. Softpaw is going to make a wonderful Medicine Cat someday, she thought. She turned when she heard the familiar voice of the deputy. "Good morning Robinfeather." she greeted. "Don't worry, everything is going to be fine. Softpaw was just instructing me to be more mindful when I drink." she purred.

Robinfeather twitched his whiskers in amusement at the thought of Speckledlily drowning herself in water, although it truly wouldn't be funny if it actually happened. Dead cats weren't funny. "Be careful, then," he meowed in slight amusement, "I don't want to have ShadowClan invade our camp and you have too big of a stomachache to help!" Robinfeather twitched his tail, although it was truly not much of a laughing matter to have the camp be invaded, but then again, the deputy did have a bit of a darker sense of humour sometimes. He shook his head, trying to rid himself of the thoughts, before speaking again. "Did you sleep well, at least?" he glanced over at the medicine cat apprentice, too, "And you, as well?"

Softpaw had seen the deputy approaching and she dipped her head respectfully to him. Instead of answering Robinfeather's question, she just let Speckledlily explain. Hearing the deputy joke around about Speckledlily getting stomachaches, she just shook her head and frowned. When Robinfeather asked her how she was doing, she had to think over her answer. "I've been fine, if not a little bored. I've been getting the hang of being the medicine cat apprentice, at least," she meowed flicking her ears back and forth. "As for sleep, I couldn't have slept any better," she meowed.

Speckledlily nodded. "I did! And I had quite the dream too." she mewed, happily remembering the details of it. She glanced at Softpaw as she spoke. "I think you're doing a great job!" she mewed, and then turned to Robinfeather. "You should have heard when she was telling me about stomachaches. This cat knows her stuff!" she meowed, pleased and proud of her clanmate. "And how about you, did you sleep well?" she asked, tilting her head.

Robinfeather purred, seating himself down comfortably with the two cats although he noted Softpaw's distaste for his comment. Oops. "I'm not surprised, Softpaw was chosen for good reason!" he mewed in praise, eyes warm as he looked over at the medicine cat apprentice. "She'll be a great medicine cat one day." he dipped his head to symbolize his respect for her, as he knew that only a few cats would ever be cut out to be medicine cats. There was so much memorization and knowledge that had to go into the role, and Robinfeather knew he wasn't cut out for it. "I slept very well, too well infact. I didn't even wake up in time to prepare patrols, poor Pinestar!" he hung his head, a little disappointed in himself, still.

Silverblossom's eyes opened as she lay in her nest. Her thoughts were on her latest dream. The Medicine Cat was trying make sense of it. Usually she was quite sure at deciphering hidden messages but her latest one had her stumped. As the she-cat talked, she heard the chatting of cats outside her den, and managed to catch Softpaw say she was bored. Letting out an amused purr, Silverblossom decided she would get back to her dream later. She quickly cleaned herself and gave a stretch before checking the inventory. They seemed to be low on cobwebs and coltsfoot. While cobwebs were usually easy to find, coltsfoot only grew in certain places of Thunderclan territory, more specifically, alongside the stream bordering Windclan. Noticing that both Robinfeather and Speckledlily were outside the den, Silverblossom decided she would take advantage of the situation. Emerging from her den, Silverblossom dipped her head in greeting to the two warriors.
"Good morning," she said cheerfully. Silverblossom turned her eyes onto her apprentice, she began to speak once more.
"Softpaw, we seem to be low on some cobwebs and coltsfoot, if you're ready we'll be leaving soon," she said, tuning to Robinfeather," Robinfeather, would you or Speckledlily like to be our guards? We'll be going along the Windclan border, and while we've been in relative peace, I'd feel safer knowing there were warriors with us. Also, it'd give you a chance to patrol the borders as well."

Softpaw listened to Robinfeather, and she just shook her head. "I'm sure Pinestar won't be to hard on you. After all, it is just way to easy to oversleep, " she commented. Hearing her mentor, she turned her head and dipped her head to the older she-cat. Hearing what her mentor had to say, she nodded flicking her ears back and forth. "Of course, the sun should have burned off the dew by now, so we won't have to leave it out to dry," she commented. She than looked at the two warriors to see what their answers would be. She didn't really care if they came or stayed, but she knew it could be dangerous for a medicine cat and a medicine cat in training to be alone at the border.

Speckledlily nodded in agreement with Softpaw as Silverblossom emerged from her den. She dipped her head respectfully to the Medicine Cat and listened to her request, her ears perking up with interest at the mention of going near the WindClan boarder. Even when she wasn't on patrol, Speckledlily would often spend her time by the boarders. It excited her to smell all the different scents that wafted over the boarder, and she couldn't help feeling a rush of tingling curiosity as to what lay beyond the scent markers. She immediately nodded, her green eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Of course! With us around, you'll be safe as a kit in our nursery!" she assured her, getting up and pacing excitedly. "You're coming too, Robinfeather, right?" she mewed, casting him a questioning look.

Robinfeather tilted his head to look at Silverblossom as she approached, remaining quiet and patient until the mentor and apprentice had shared a few words. At the mention of low herb supply and asking Speckledlily and him for protection, Robinfeather slowly dipped his head in acknowledgement. "Of course, I'd be grateful to accompany you. I just hope you wouldn't mind if I caught a vole or two on the way, as it can never hurt to add to our freshkill pile." he mewed calmly, eyes watching the medicine cat curiously. Although he respected Softpaw, he couldnt help but look at Silverblossom in reverence with the knowledge that she knew how to save cats and speak to StarClan.

Silverblossom gave a purr as she the warriors agreed to help. She bowed her head quickly in thanks.
"Of course Robinfeather, food for the clan is always appreciated, just make sure not to catch too many, I might just decide to have you caring some herbs," Silverblossom responded, adding in the last part with a more light - hearted and amusing tone. She looked first at her apprentice and then towards the two warriors.
" I'm ready to leave as soon as you're all ready," Silverblossom said.

Softpaw listened to Robinfeather and Speckledlily agree to coming along, anc she was relieved that they could just head out. Remembering her earlier conversation with Speckledlily,.she looked over at her mentor. "I was talking to Speckledlily earlier about stomachaches. She doesn't havr one now, but she was telling me that she had been getting stomachaches often,.and I was telling her that it was probably because she was drinking water to fast. I think we should remind our clan mates, that they should take it easy with the water consumption, in Greenleaf," she meowed to her mentor.

"I'm ready!" Speckledlily purred, her paws tingling with anticipation. She stood by the entrance to the Medicine Cat's den, waiting for the others. Upon hearing Softpaw mention their conversation, she felt a little embarrassed. She should have known all of this on her own, and yet she had to be told by the medicine cat's apprentice to drink water slower. Mousebrain! she scolded herself. At least I know better now.

Snowkit and Spottedkit had been in the nursery the entire time. The queen, Petalstorm, wasn't in there with them right now, so of course they were doing things they shouldn't be doing. "What are you looking at?" Spottedkit asked, trying to see what had caught Snowkit's attention. They were lying down on the ground, and Snowkit's eyes fixated on a silver coloured she-cat. Her underbelly was as white as Snowkit's, but short and sleek instead of puffy. Silverblossom.
"What are they saying?" Snowkit whispered without answering the question given to her. Spottedkit then rolled her eyes in response, wishing Snowkit wouldn't be so curt, but she pricked her ears up anyway and listened in on the small group standing near the entrance to the medicine cat's den. "I don't know. Something about herbs." "Of course, herbs, as if she isn't the medicine cat! Mousebrain!" Snowkit meowed and sighed. "I mean, where are they going!? They're heading for the camp's entrance, don't you see?"
Spottedkit hissed and growled: "How should I know?" She was getting annoyed, so she stood up and started walking in circles, trying to shake it off. She knew Snowkit was half-deaf and couldn't hear them from so far away, so she needed Spottedkit's help, but why did she have to be so curt!

Petalstorm left the kits alone for a minute to get them something to eat from the fresh-kill pile. As she got close to the nursery opening, she overheard Snowkit and Spottedkit. She set the mouse down at the very edge inside the nursery and quietly came up behind them. "What are you two doing?" Petalstorm meowed while pouncing a foot behind them.

Both Snowkit and Spottedkit jumped in the air upon hearing Petalstorm's voice. They hadn't noticed her walking in. Am I in trouble? Snowkit thought, retracing her steps. She tried to find the right words to explain herself, but Spottedkit quickly answered for her, knowing Snowkit wasn't too good at explaining things: "Snowkit was just trying to listen in on Silverblossom and..." Before finishing her sentence, she glanced at Snowkit. And when they made eye-contact, it was clear they had made peace again. "She just wanted to know where they were going, that's all."
Now, if only Snowkit had kept her mouth shut! But Snowkit added: "We weren't planning on going outside to follow them, I promise!" Spottedkit sighed in response and slowly shook her head, giving up on tweaking the truth. Petalstorm wasn't mousebrained, and by saying what Snowkit just had said, Snowkit had stated the obvious; that she did wanted to follow them outside. And Spottedkit didn't like how her littermate had dragged her into it too by saying 'we' instead of 'I'.

Petalstorm laughed at them trying stay something. She went back to the entrance and grabbed the mouse for both of them to share. "Here, you two," she purred after setting it down in front of them, "you know, a good doesn't lie to their clanmates." Petalstorm left for the fresh-kill pile again but was back quicker than be for so the two kits wouldn't run off. She ate the vole she grabbed for herself.

Snowkit purred when she saw her meal and immediately dashed forward, buried her face into the juicy mouse and consumed it quickly. "I'm sorry.." she mumbled in between some bites; "I just...want to...go out...and...look around." She had devoured the mouse almost completely in just a few seconds, so there was not much left for Spottedkit. Spottedkit, still standing next to Snowkit, had opened her mouth wide. "Since when do you eat so fast?!" She asked in a perplexed tone and cautiously grabbed the mouse, claiming the last bits for herself. "Oh, I'm sorry." Snowkit meowed, licking her lips. She genuinely felt bad for Spottedkit, but she just had been so hungry!

Silverblossom paid close attention to what Softpaw had said. Usually she would report to Pinestar on matters such as the ones Softpaw had pointed. However, she figured she'd let her apprentice have the glory this time. "That's quite the observation Softpaw! Pinestar's patrol should be back when we've returned, how about you tell him so he can make an announcement to the clan when we get back?" Silverblossom suggested. She wanted to make sure her apprentice got used to the role of Medicine Cat and that included confiding with Pinestar when it had to be done. Silverblossom watched the kits scamper around camp from the corner of her eye, but was relieved to see that Petalstorm had a good eye on them. "Since we're all ready, then let's go!" Silverblossom said as she padded out of camp, eager to see the forest once again. OOC: gathering herbs thread ssswarriorcats.proboards.com/thread/9200/gathering-herbs-silver-frost-ninja
