What to do ?

[Silverheart]

Flarestar was in camp and she was sitting on highrock, she sat tall and proud. she looked around and was thinking about what to do. she saw cats sharing tounges and playing, and she noticed that she cant do this much. she leaped off of highrock and padded around camp. she looked for something to do or someone to talk to, but there was nobody. she sat down in front of her den and she watched the clan go by.

Wolfsnare spotted his leader watching the clan by her den. His brown and black stripes stood out in the sun as he padded over to her, "Nothing to do suprisingly," he told her, "After the flood, there should be many things, but the fresh-kill pile is pretty thick and the dens are protective..." He told her everything that he had sent the warriors to do. As deputy, he just wished there may be more things, because laying around like an apprentice sure wasn't better then being busy from head to tail.

"yeah i know, we have already done all the things we need to do and now there is nothing to do" Flarestar replied. "i do thank you lots for doing such a great job as my deputy, Wolfsnare" she meowed. she sat and licked her paws and tried to get all the pebbles and dirt out of between her claws. she looked up and saw thick grey clouds coming and she knew it was about to rain. "perfect, rain, dont you just love it?" she mewed happily.

"Absolutely" he purred with a glint in his eye. "What cat doesn't like rain besides StormClan and us?" WOlfsnare turned his attention to leafbringer, "We'll have kits soon I suppose" he said, remembering the sister of leafbringer. Wolfsnare laid down as well, "Rockpaw is doing well on his own so far as med cat apprentice, too bad he doesn't have a mentor" he grunted. He began grooming himself and scrunched his nose at the taste of dirt.

Rockpaw sits right outside of the med-cat's den. "Starclan will I ever have a mentor?" he asked. He looks up into the grey sky wating for an answer. He walks over to Wolfsnare and Flarestar. "How do you do" he asked them. Rockpaw lays down on the marshy soil and looks back into the sky as if something is missing in his life.

[Silverheart]

Flarestar heard Rockpaw and she nodded to him, "I am very well thank you, abd how about you?". she sat as she felt the rain on her head getting heavier and she looked directly up and she felt the drops go on her face.

[Whitegaze]

"I am doing just fine" he coughed. "Leafbare is almost here Flarestar and we need all the herbs we can get, the only problem with that I dont have a mentor!" he sighed. Rockpaw walked over to the fresh kill-pile and grabed two mice one for Flarestar and one for himslef. He starts to gnaw on the plump juicy mouce. "Thats one good mouse." he giggled.

[Silverheart]

Flarestar smiled, she was happy to know that she might be doing a good job as leader. " dont worry Rockpaw I'm sure we can find you one soon". she sat and felt the rain get heavier but she didnt care. "so Wolfsnare, do you think im doing a good job as leader? i just wanna know"

[¡ö▐CelieX the NeKo¨¡ö]

Wolfsnare looked to Flarestar with a glint in his eye, ″Better than most″he grunted thoughtfully, ″I`m sure the rest of the clan...er...what`s here, would agree and accept you″. This was very true in his mind and he looked to Rockpaw. ″Exactly what herbs are you needing? I could help you and possibly find some around the territory on hunting and border patrols″he offered, his brown and black striped fur now shifting slightly from the wind: A thunderstorm was defiantely moving this way. ″I`m sure catmint is one″A raindrop gracefully fell, but he didn`t even flinch as the icy tempurature slid into his eye. Only blinked.

"I need catmint, poppy seeds, coltsfoot, juniper seeds, and marigold Wolfsnare" Rockpaw exclamied. "Can you come and help me find some?" he asked. He looks around and he spots some marigold right outside of camp. Rockpaw pads over and grabs some Marigold. He goes and puts it in the med- cat den.

[Silverheart]

Flarestar listened, and approved of Wolfsnares idea, "ok Wolfsnare you may go with Rockpaw, and if you see or scent anything wierd, do tell me" she meowed. she was proud of the answer that Wolfsnare had said about her, and she thought that she might just do well here.

((soz my posts keep goin short))

((Just try harder to get more in, that's all I ask ))

Wolfsnare bent his head in respect for his leader, "I will, and I'll keep my ears wide open" he promised. With a twitch of his cream-colored nose, he nudged Rockpaw. "Let's get going" he said, walking normally with his chest a bit high and his muscles ready for anything. Wolfsnare understood he may be helping with med-cat duties, but his were very important as well.
"let's see...I know what poppy seeds look like and you already have marigold....You must mean Juniper Berries," he gruffly purred in amusement. "You must explain what coltsfoot looks like, I don't remember" he asked the small apprentice.

[[ Serpent-tounge ]]

{ Opening this up again !! }

Serpent - tounge approached the three chattering cats. His tail swished, and his left paw faltered slightly, each time he walked a pace. A result of an old injury, it slowed him down a bit, but didn't put him off his jobs at all. 'Rockpaw, Flarestar, Wolfsnare.' He nodded to each cat in turn, addressing them as individuals, as was his way. He kept pace with them, as they continued to walk. Finally, he stopped as they reached a small clearing, with which he was very familiar with, often stopping to give a talk, or say something of which he felt was important.

'Now, Rockpaw,' he started, his voice suddenly serious. 'I heard you were searching for Coltsfoot, and perhaps some more Juniper Berries ? Well, no need to worry about either of those, I got them a little earlier; that's why I wasn't around to help you out. Sorry about that.' A flick of his long, tabby tail landed gently on his apprentice's shoulder, gently ruffling the fur in a friendly gesture. 'What we really need, which I must add, is difficult to find at this time of year, is Bayberry,' he started, his tail flicking from side to side, as he got into his stride. 'A very useful little herb, or berry, it is often used to clear congestion, help with the cold and flue. . you get my drift.' He stopped, blinking at Rockpaw. 'You're following me ? I want you to find some later, so listen up ! Alrighty,' he paused, satisfied that he was indeed paying close attention. 'A small berry, they are a pinkish - red; rather like an un - ripe berry, so look closely.' He stood up again, all business. With a swish of his tail, he vanished into the thick undergrowth, motioning for the others to follow him.

Flarestar smiled and looked around at the cats trying to do something to help. she looked at her deputy,medicine cat and his apprentice thinking that they were trying their hardest to help this slowly building clan.

OCC: i cant think of anythin else 2 put

[[ Serpent-tounge ]]

{ OOC: That's fine. It's partly my fault; I didn't give you much opening to respond. Sorry about that. <3 }

As Serpent - tounge's tabby pelt disappeared, and for the few brief moments he was alone, his thoughts drifted away from the herbs and remedies, that occupied most of his thoughts, for most of his life. They drifted away, for some reason, he felt as if they had been guided. But that was ridiculous; why would StarClan guide his thoughts, shile he was still awake and working ? Shaking his heads, he momentarily distracted himself, but then gave up, and let them flow out. .

They're all doing so much, was his first. Flarestar, Wolfsnare, even little Rockpaw. So much for the clan. . Even, I, as a simple medicine cat, am doing as much as I can. We'll get there. The clan will build, new kits will be born. It's leaf - bare now; a tough time, for all clans. Every cat must be struggling a little; no matter what clan, even loners, perhaps. But we'll get through it ! StarClan will make sure of that.

A loud bump, from an unknown source, sounded behind him, drawing him back and away from his rather pleasant day - dreamings. His faith in his warrior ancestors could not be shaken. He was also unaware, that his leader had been thinking along the same lines; her clan being rebuilt. He led the three cats through the still thick undergrowth. He reached a small clearing and sat down. He was not sure what to tell them all. As much as the leader and deputy were lovely cats, he was just a little confused as to why they were accompanying him and his apprentice. Was something wrong ? He wasn't sure, but it was making it a little hard, awkward even, to go around the territory, explaining herbs that perhaps the meanings weren't so necessary, for them ? He flicked his tail; he would to his best.
