Watershine and Sparkstrike 4

“I think it’s healing!” Sparkpaw yipped. “Of course, silly. But it won’t if you keep dancing around like that!” I giggled. The gathering was coming up, and it was the first time we would be there. Some darker cloud hovered over me though, ''What would Nightclan think. What would Beaverpine think? ''I shook my head, it would be alright. Windsong and Sparkpaw would be with me. Thymekit poked her head outside of the nursery and looked around, She was the most mischievous out of her siblings, and loved to play. ”Waterpaw? Did you hear me?” Sparkpaw asked as I looked back at him. “Uh-No.” ”Well, it’s just that.... Don’t you think Pumpkinpaw’s kind’ve cute?” “What? Well, I guess so. She seems nice.” I mewed awkwardly. Didn’t he know that I didn’t understand this kind’ve stufff? I was a medicine cat after all- I wasn‘t aloud to have a mate! “Uh. Sorry. I forgot you were-“ He meowed stiffly. “No, it’s fine. I don’t really like boys and all that. No offense.“ “Offense.” We both started laughing hysterically until Windsong came out of the den. “Waterpaw. I need you to come and gather mint with me. I want to show you some spots where it grows.“ I grabbed a wood mouse out of the fresh-kill. Some of it's warm blood dripping into my mouth. Then we looped around the camp to the back of the nursery, where a patch of herbs were growing. “You should smell it, they’re used for hiding scents.” The leaves were light green with purple flowers on top. I bit it by the stem like Windsong told me and held it in my mouth. She did the same. “Time to go back. Tomorrow I’ll teach you some basic battle moves, even medicine cats need to defend themselves sometimes!” She mewed through a mouthful of plant. ”We can’t!” Waterpaw jumped at the angry grumble. It was Silverleaf. He was glaring at two young cats, One of them a tom and the other a she-cat. “But we don’t have anywhere else to go!” The she-cat pleaded. The tom licked Her over her ears. “Amy, it’s okay.” He muttered, “We can look somewhere else.” Amy growled at the surrounding cats. ''Is she completely mouse-brained? ''Waterpaw silently hissed. ''These cats could wipe her out before you can say “Fourtrees“! ''Squirrelstar flicked his tail for silence. “Who are you?” He calmy meowed. “I’m Zeus, and this is Amy.”
