Warriors: Return to the forest

[Sinder]

Hawkfeather didn't answer his old apprentice only grabbed the kit and ran his heart racing. As he reached camp he dropped the kit beside his den and yowled to Scarpath, "Look in my den under the moss beside the tunnel! I have some catmint there but not enough! Ill hunt more get some feverfew see if that will work right now we can let this spread to blackcough!" He quickly carried the two hurt cats and put them in the den while Moon's eyes fixed on them fearfully Hawkfeather didn't have time to comfort her though. "There might be catmint beside the riverclan border! Bring me the catmint we have and go check!" he yowled again his heart racing. Thunderclan was in trouble with this sickness racing around and the medicine cat for once was not prepared for it.

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath grabbed the few leves of catmint and set it down next to the sick cats. He raced to the nursey and picked up Pathpelt's kits, then raced back to Hawkfeather's den and made nests for them. He proddied each one gently ato make sure they were alive. He gasped quietly as he realized Mixkit had already died. "Hawkfeather! One of the kits already died! They could have had it for days, we have to check all the other cats to make sure no one else has fallen sick. I'm going to RiverClan to see if they can spare some catmint." With that, the black medicine cat raced out of camp and began racing toward the river. He found some right on their border, and without hesitation he begbite through the stems and grabbed as much catmint as he could carry. Then he raced through the undergrowth back to camp.

((Cowl,you have to treat graystorm as well....))

[Songbreeze2012]

Skypaw heard Hawkfeather yelling and came running. Hereing that the cough might turn to blackcough, she yowled, "I'll get the catmint! I won't be long!" Without waiting for a reply from anyone, or even permission from her father and mentor, she ran through the entrance and followed her nose to the RiverClan border. Her mother had been a RiverClan cat; she knew the scent well. The silver-star fur on her head seemed to glow as she ran, lending her speed and surefootedness. SHe was a Clan Cat.

Sunpelt jumped to his feet and went to Hawkfeather. He said, "What needs to be done?"

 

((No time for color))

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath raced by Skypaw and right into camp, skidding to a hault as he saw that Greystorm had fallen sick as well. Great StarClan! he thought as he ran into the medicuine den and dropped the catmint, taking a couple peices and running over to Greystorm. "Cmoe on, we have to get you to the medicine cat den," he mumbled through the herbs. He let the warrior lean on him as he brougbht Greystorm into the den and made a nest for him. He chewed up the catmint and tried to make Greystorm eat them. "Eat these, it'll make you better." He did that with all the cats, trying his best to keep them all alive.

[TwilightMoonDragon]

((Ya y!Someone actually RPs with him!))

 

Graystorm pushed the catmint away with a paw."No.keep that for the kits....They..."he started to cough again,and was unable to speak for several heartbeats."They need it more than me...."

[CowlRaven]

"Don't be mouse-brained, Greystorm!" Scarpath hissed, standing over him and trying to give him the herbs again. "You have to take these herbs!" The only reason he was being so aggressive was because of losing a kit already, and not even being prepared for the outbreak of sickness. Then, another moan of sickness. Scarpath scraped the ground once before going outside to see that Stormpaw was limping toward him, coughing and having the same symptoms as the others. He made a nest and led the poor apprentice to it, letting him lie down and gave him the herbs. Stormpaw ate them quickly, and Scarpath couldn't help but round on Greystorm with slight anger, but mostly worry and concern, in his eyes. "Even an an apprentice knows that he has to take those herbs. I have enough for you and the kits, so take the herbs!" he yowled before going to treat the others in the den. Scarpath was just trying to help, and knew that he was being to harsh. He quickly apologised to the warrior, without looking away from Spottedkit as he gave her catmint as well.

[Sinder]

Hawkfeather's pulse was racing as he fed more to the kits and looked at Sunpelt, "here take Moon she is scared, Moon go with Sunpelt its ok" he meowed. The kit turned to Sunpelt shaking her fur on end as she was in fear for all the cats and not understanding what was going on. Hawkfeather tryed to keep calm chewing up mint and giving it to the kits that needed attention and heard Mixkit was dead Hawkfeather made a quick prayer to Starclan. He got to his paws making sure the other three were ok before starting a yowl outside his den. "Any cat feeling sick PLEASE line up beside my den!" before waiting to see if he was answered he raced back in sniffing cats trying to make sure everyone was being taken care of. He looked at Scarpath and hissed, "Enough! Greystorm eat!" he saw him pass out and yowled his fur standing on end, he looked at Scarpath, "breath this is not testing you cant get mad you have to think son" he said and turned to Stormpaw. "Come over here and rest" he ordered the cat and the same to others that started pileing in.

Greystorm looked at Stormpaw and nodded,quickly lapping up the herbs.He turned to Scarpath."it is okay,young one.I know that you are upset."he coughed again,and collapsed.

[CowlRaven]

At Hawkfeather's yowl, three more warriors came up to the den, having the exact same symptoms. Scarpath was shocked. This wasn't just a few cats. This was a complete break out of greencough! His fur was stadning on end as he quickly made nests for the sick warriors and they plopped down into them, curling up and coughing terribly. The black medicine cat grabbed catmint for them and chewed it up, making them swallow it even though they said the same as Greystorm. Spottedkit began to cough more, having trouble breathing. He grabbed some coltsfoot and chewed it to a pulp, then made the young kit swallow it.

[Songbreeze2012]

In less time than a normal cat, Skypaw was at the river. Gathering up bundles of catmint, she wrapped them all in a big leaf she had picked up along the way. Gripping the presious bundle in her jaws, she turned and ran back to the Clan.

She ran through the entrance and to the medicine cat's den. Walking inside, she sat the bundle down and said, "Got the Catmint, Hawkfeather." She had been gone barely three minutes and already there were more sick. "What do you need?"

~~~~~~

Taking Moon by the scruff gently, Sunpelt walked out of the den and over to the kill pile. Setting moon down he pawed at a few things till he found a freshly killed mouse. Setting it infront of Moon, he said, "It'll be alright, Moon. Hawkfeather has everything undercontrol Now eat up."

Greystorm looked at Spottedkit with shock."Spottedkit!Where's Mixkit?"he asked Scarpath.When Sunpelt walked up to him,he nodded and said."I already did,thank you Sunpelt."he wheezed.

 

Shadestar turned his attention to ThunderClan.They had a serious outbreak of greencough.He chuckled and somehow mumbled in Scarpath's ear,"That's what you get for raising cowards."

Hawkfeather looked at Skypaw quickly helping more cats walk in, "Thanks you Skypaw if you can start helping the kits while me and Scarpath help the others im gonna check the elders" he said. The tabby chewed up more catmint and handed it to the kits beside him before racing to the elders. The young medicine cat stopped as he saw Dawnbracket crawling out on her belly steam coming off her fur and then she gapped her mouth open and her eyes widened stareing into space. His jaw tightened, "Three cats already?!" he yowled racing into the den and pulling out the sick elders and bringing them to the den, "Someone go to the nursery check the queens and kits!" he yowled and went back into his sleeping hollow for more bedding for the sick cats. He raced back out and laid more beds and then pelted out his den gathering more catmint and treating more cats most were sleeping and sone were close to it. His pelt heaved "Scarpath I think thats about it" he said his eyes scanning all the cats. Starclan help us! he thought fear in his eyes.

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath took a deep breath as things began to calm down and all the sick cats were in his and Hawkfeather's den now, almost every single one of them sleeping soundly. He took in a shaky breath and could walk around calmer, giving each cat their needed herbs. He brought water-soaked moss to the ones who asked for it and feverfew to the ones who had the hottest of tempeture. He gently picked up Mixkit by his scruff and sadly walked out of the den to bury the small kit. "My kit!!" Pacthpelt raced over and nearly ramemd into Scarpath. "No!!" she yowled and dug her nose into the lifeless body's fur. Edited November 6, 2009 by CowlRaven

[Songbreeze2012]

Hearing Pathpelt yowl, Skypaw trotted to her and gently pulled her away. The star-fur on her head shining she said firmly, "Nothing could be be done, Pathpelt. He was to far along in the sickness and no matter what we did, he wouldn't have made it." Nudgeing her back toward the den, Skypaw said, "Get some rest, unless you want to get sick as well. We can't handle many more cats getting sick."

 

 

((Out of time to Rp, I'll get on later this afternoon. ))

Hawkfeather looked around his den his pelt tingled with sadness, some cats he could tell were not going to make it. His head dropped lower as he saw Mixkit laying lifelessly in front of the mother Pathpelt and his need to comfort her was strong. He got to his paws and walked out side the den seeing warriors move dead cats to the center of the camp at least five pelts he saw burning under the hot sun. His claw's dug into the ground his ears flattened back he was a medicine cat and was ment to protect his clan but here they were dieing right in front of him. His heart flipped and he sat down saying a quick prayer to Starclan and looked up noticing the sun was starting to set peacefully behind the trees. It didn't help him though his heart hurt worse than a broken leg and he walked into his den his tail dragging the ground as he walked to Scarpath, "come let us get some rest...maybe Starclan will give us a dream of whats to come" he said. Greif lingered in his voice, never in his years had he allowed so many cats to get sick.

[CowlRaven]

Patchpelt refused to leave Mixkit's side, wraaping her tail around him as if he were still alive and mourning her dead kit. Scarpath decided she should be allowed to mourn him until the others were burried as well. He lef ther in peace and walked back into the den in time to hear Hawkfeather. He nodded, but as he curled up in his nest, he could hear Spottkit's weak mew. "Whitekit?" she croaked. Scarpath lifted his head to see the small tortiseshell kit weakly nudging her borhter. "W.. Whitekit wake up," she mewed again. Scarpath got up and walked over, pressing his nose to the black and white kit's fur. Instead of the heat of a fever, it was deathlyh cold. Another of Patchpelt's kit's had fallen vitim to greencough. He picked him up by the scruff and brought Whitekit out to his mother. She looked up in pain and her eyes went wide. "No!! Not another one!!" she yowled, wrapping her tail around that one as well, holding their lifeless bodies tightly as she mourned her kits death. She let out a yowl into the sky, filled with greife. Scarpath walked back into the den, tail draggnig, and gave Spottedkit more catmint and feverfew. He was determinded to keep her alive.

[Sinder]

Hawkfeather's fur bristled at the sight of the dead kit and he got to his paws eyes holding sleepiness. "Scarpath get some sleep...ill watch the kits till they go asleep and help the warriors" he promised and sat down in front of the nest's his tail around his paws. "Pathpelt if you want you can sleep on my bed but not out here with the sick cats or you could get sick to" he warned her licking her ear once. He yawned and looked at Whitekit pressing his nose into her fur to comfort her of her lost siblings and his tail drapped over a apprentice who was also loosing his brother who's breathing was becoming shallower. The apprentice was curling around the kit purring tears in his eyes knowing nothing could be done, after the kit took his last breath he got to his paw's and leaned on Hawkfeather for comfort. The huge tabby bowed his head and licked the apprentice, Talonpaw, telling him it was ok, the apprentice's claws dug into the ground eyes shut tightly as he shoved his head into the medicine cat's shoulder.

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath wasn't tired at all, and as he was holding herbs to treat two more cats, he collapsed adn went completely into unconciousness. Not even a badger attacking the camp could wake him as he lay there on the gorund. "Scarpath!" Spottedkit croaked, trying to warn Hawkfeather that something had happened to him. The young medicine cat was just lying there, not moving and not waking up. Another apprentice, Thornpaw, also was surprised by what had happened and called over Hawkfeather as best as he could.

[Sinder]

Hawkfeather lifted his head as Spottedkit and Thornpaw called his name and his ears perked to his friend. Quickly he got to his paw's and raced to him, "Scarpath!" he yowled in fear and quickly tested if he was hot. There was no heat coming off for what he could tell but his own heat and looked over him confused. The young medicine tabby cat grabbed Scarpath's scruff and carried him into his sleeping hollow and put him on his bed. Hawkfeather got a tingling feeling around his partner and jerked his head back wondering what was happening. The smell of monster filled his hollow and his side began to hurt as if something hard hit him, he hissed looking around blood scent also filling his nose. He looked at the black cat so motionless like he was dead and his ears flicked back. What was happening around here? Everything was going upside down and now he was getting strange feelings. Hawkfeather put his nose into Scarpath's fur and prayed to Starclan they would send him some sign for he was not going to sleep that night. He look out his den and curled his tail around his paw's and Timberpaw walked in and curled up beside him keeping him company while the sun went down.

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath was twitching and a strange scent was filling his nose: monster. Visions of the Thunderpath and a shining red pelt racing toward him. The scent of blood filled his nose and his body ached and he was cold. Once again the strange cat was standing over him. He was shaking violently and if you felt his fur it would be deathly cold. Why was he continuously having these visoins? His berathing became irregular, and a non-medicine cat could mistake him for being sick.

[Ladynightstalker101]

Thunderpaw felt a mysterious chill sweep by him. As if a cat from another world had descended upon Thunderclan. It was probably just his imagination, or the giant fox snarling at him.

 

Angelsong turned and saw it was Whitefire. "Just going out for a hunt. Want to join me?"

 

Demonstar narrowed his eyes at his apprentice. "Useless." he muttered, and turned to retreat into his den.

 

[tough love ]

[Sinder]

Hawkfeather's head jerked back to his apprentice and he saw him twitching and got to his paw's so quickly Timberpaw woke up and his eyes held worry. "Whats wrong with him?!" the apprentice asked thinking the med cat was sick seeing him shaking so roughly. Hawkfeather leaned over his partner and touched his pelt, it was cold and he pulled back, "Go get some moss Timberpaw" he meowed calmly. The young apprentice nodded and raced over to the moss grabbing some and drapping it over Scarpath's shoulder's and pelt to warm him. Hawkfeather licked his friends shoulder, "Scarpath come on an wake up its ok your in Thunderclan" he purred hoping to wake him.

[CowlRaven]

Scarpath woke up suddenly, gasping for breath and covered in sweat. He was still shaking and was scared out of his mind, but as the blood-scent dissapeared he calmed down and looked around the room, his breathing becoming more calmed as he laid back down in his nest and tried to calm down. Teh visions were so real, so frightening, he actually thought that he was going to join StarClan just now.
