Mallow gave a nod and gingerly took out some herbs, sniffing his shoulder. it didn't seem to be an open wound and she prepared some thyme and a few other herbs, pushing them forwards him as she gently mewed, "this should relieve the ache and pain along with give you strength" she looked away, not wanting to see him wince from the bitterness of the mixture.

"Thanks." He thanked her, eating the mixture. "It's good." He said to her, his eyes bright.
He knew there relationship would have to stay a secret, but what if someone finds out? No, we are still rouges, not true clan cats. But we still have to think about becoming a real clan.

Pebblestar walked calmly to the nursery.He rubbed muzzles with Lilacbreeze."How are your kits?"He asked politely to Dappleleaf."Fine.They're always bouncing about everywhere and causing mischief."The queen meowed with a smile."How soon are your kits expected?"He asked Fawndust.Kits would mean more mouths to feed but they would also mean more warriors.

Her tail flicked and she tentatively nuzzled him, heart beating as she closed her eyes. She listened to his breathing, letting it comfort her, "Is Copper okay?" she asked quietly.

_{(Fawndust is outside, not in the nursery ^^)}
She looked up, flicking her tail, "Still a moon or two, but don't expect Spidernose to be awake by then" she said abruptly, the tom still sleeping loudly next to her as she grumbled to reposition herself. She was in a stale mood.

Pebblestar thought it would be best to leave Fawndust when she was in a mood like this.He padded to the fresh-kill pile and took a mouse.

``Yes, why?`` He looked down at her, curious.





Shiverpaw


Shiverpaw sat outside of the Apprentices den, waiting for her mentor arrival back from the hunting patrol. She sighed in boredom, flopping down onto her belly as she scratched the earth under her.

Fawndusts eyes watched him go before she then gave her stomach a few quick licks. She stood up, "Since Spidernose can't order a patrol, I'm going out and making myself useful. I've had kits before, I'm up for hunting, you coming, Pebblestar?" her fur prickled as she stood up, Spidernsoe immediately stretched out to fill up the new warm space. Fawndust padded towards the camp entrance, her tail whipping them side to side annoyed.

She huffed, "Nothing." she looked around, "Coming on a herb gathering patrol?" she purred, "You can whack some ginger-root around the nose"
