Finchsong was curled around her three kits and she raised her head as she heard Raindrops voice. Her eyes went wide. "The eggs were bad? Veilkit and Bloodkit shared an egg earlier today!" Right as she said this Spark-kit jumped away from his brother and sister. "Mama!" The two kits had vomited.
Wolfpaw allowed a small smile cross his features. He bumped his head against Twilightpaw's cheek. "Thanks..." he told her.
Flurryheart's expression became one of worry and shock. "Are you certain? Well of course you're certain, look at you." She stood. "You should have come to me sooner Moondust." Her tone was firm, but not angry. "Gather the rest of the psychic cats and bring them here. We need to confirm that you and Clearpaw aren't the only ones having these visions and dreams." She briefly laid her tail over Moondust's shoulders gently. "Thank you for trusting me enough to tell me."
Hollowpaw could feel someone staring at her and it was causing her fur to fluff up a little. She turned her gaze from the she-cats to Thistlefoot and tensed when she saw he was staring at her. She wasn't sure if he was doing it consciously or not, so she just turned her attention back to the she-cats quickly.

Oceanbreeze bristled slightly, but then forced the fur flat on her back. "I watch them sometimes!" She protested, flicking her tail back and forth.

Breezepaw peered down at the Clear Pool, then at her mentor, Echoheart, patiently waiting at the bottom. Adrenaline rushed through; just one leap, and her moons of training would pay off and she'd be a warrior! She remembered the last time they'd tried this, and she'd just mentally prepared herself when the lightning struck. When she remembered the lightning she suddenly felt a little doubtful. Before she would let the second thoughts grow she took a running leap and leaped. For a moment she was in flight, then she felt herself falling until she splashed into the water. It honestly wasn't as hard a smack as she'd thought it would be; still, it was still pretty cool. And she had passed her test!

Echoheart smiled at her apprentice as she climbed out of the Clear Pool. "Good job," she acknowledged. "I'll speak with Aurorastar about getting your warrior assessment scheduled," she told Breezepaw.
Despite all the trouble already going on in the Lower Camp with the illness, more drama began. Galegust was rushing out of the leaders' den, where she stayed with her mate, Darknight. She had an angry look on her face, and she was heading for Oceanbreeze to speak with her, the cat being one of her good friends, despite the queen spending little time in the Lower Camp. "OCEANBREEZE!" she ordered her friend to her side in a commanding tone.
Raindrop's expression dropped. "We need to get them to the medicine-den immediately!" she gasped, turning to Oaktree and Delphapool, who, despite her injuries, had followed them to the nursery.
Petalstorm walked out of the medicine-den to leave the healers to their tasks, but didn't go lay down. She began searching the camp for Redhawk.
Thistlefoot cleared his throat. "Let Hollowpaw. She has been blessed by the spirits; her powers reach inside a cat, deeper than any medicine-cat alive today," he explained. Zinniapetal's eyes widened, surprised. She had suspected as much of her apprentice herself; Hollowpaw's powers worked differently than most. She could see it when she was working, how her abilities pulled at the cats she was working on. But how did Thistlefoot know? And was it really true? If it was, then was it right to push so much expectation on the young she-cat? "I-I don't think we should pressure her to do that. She hasn't had that much training-" Zinniapetal began, but her former mentor cut her off. "Nonsense. We don't know what this illness could do to cats. It's Hollowpaw's job to heal to the best of her abilities," Thistlefoot argued in his typical grouchy tone, looking to Hollowpaw.
Moondust stuttered, still scared. "I just don't trust myself..." she mumbled, following after the head warrior. What if she was wrong? She hoped she was...She even prayed to the spirits that she was wrong, but she was worried that only the bad spirits would hear her...
As they walked back to their camps' cave, Sharpear began bombarding Wolfpaw with questions. "What have you learned thus far? I've already been told of your recent eagle-hunt. Have you taken part in a fawn-hunt yet? And we need to set up a goat-hunt immediately. I doubt even Twilightpaw has had the opportunity to see that take place. Have you fished in the mountain stream yet? It's very different from hunting in the stream by the Middle Camp, though you clearly would have little idea of that." Twilightpaw stayed by Wolfpaw's side as they walked, ears alert and taking careful detail of everything Sharpear was saying to Wolfpaw.

Cloverrain was shocked by the news. She wouldn't admit she also felt a little jealous. She smiled at the apprentice and nodded. "Do it Hollowpaw. We believe in you."

Coalflare glanced down at Blazepaw. "This is the Bright Meadow."
Finchsong leaned over her kits and nudged Veilkit. "Come on little one. The medicine cat's will make you all better..." Her voice had a worried tone to it, but she tried to hide it so her kits wouldn't panic. She picked up Bloodkit, who seemed to be the weakest of the two and made her way out of the den.
Hollowpaw sat still as a statue, her eyes wide and her tail fluffed up. She wanted to shrink away, but was in too much shock to do so. Was she truly that powerful? No, she couldn't be. She was barely more than a kit. Her eyes darted from one cat to another. "B-but..." When she finally managed to speak, her voice sounded tiny, "I-I can't heal all of them..!"
Flurryheart looked around the camp once outside of her den, looking for other psychic cats.
Wolfpaw stayed silent during the bombardment of questions, waiting for Sharpear to finish. "No, I've haven't been on a fawn-hunt yet, or fished in the mountain-stream..."

Oceanbreeze raced to Galegust's side at the sound of her yowl. "Are you okay?" She inquired, eyes full of concern for her best friend.

Delphapool watched the two kits with concern. "We should keep an eye on Spark-kit in case he also had a little bit, just in case." She mewed, hoping that he didn't. If she could heal anything, then she would be so very happy at the moment.

Spark-kit was crouched by his nest, eyes wide. "I didn't eat any. I don't like eggs... Will I still get sick?" he turned to look at Delphapool.
Coalflare nodded. "It's also known for being a very romantic spot," she said with a smile as she looked out at the flowers, some in full bloom and others still budding.

Delphapool went down to Spark-kit's level, "You'll be fine as long as you didn't eat any. Try to think back. Did you touch the egg's insides, though?" She patted the kit gently with her furry tail. She tried to be kind and gentle to the kit.

Sparkkit thought back, closing his eyes tight as he did before shaking his head. "No. I didn't touch it."

(I'm here finally! Traffic was ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!)
Galegust spat, "NO! Aurorastar- the absolute fox-face- is sending Darknight back to the Upper Camp. Which is great, but she said I'm not allowed to go back!!!" she hissed, voice a high-pitched squeal.
"You don't have a choice. It's your job to heal your clanmates," Thistlefoot snapped. Zinniapetal moved forward to Hollowpaw, hoping to distract her apprentice from his harshness. "Don't worry. We will help you. You don't have to do them all, just the worst cases. And we will give you as much of our energy as we can," she tried to comfort the young she-cat. But it was then that Raindrop came into the Medicine-den, calling out to the medicine-cats. "The kits are sick!" she hollered. And, at the same time, things became much more serious. "ROSEFOOT IS VOMITING BLOOD!" Ravenfall screamed from the back of the den, a few nests hidden back behind a wall of driftwood placed for privacy.

Delphapool nodded slowly, "Okay...that's good. You should be okay, then." She smiled at the young kit. Her ear pricked up, hearing Ravenfall scream. Vomiting blood wasn't a good sign. "Uh, here!" She held out a feather that she had always stroked when she was stressed. "Embrace this feather! It always calms me down, so you should try it!" She was never too great with dealing with kits. She liked them, but was usually akward around them.

(Hello)
Hollowpaw had shrunk back when Thistlefoot snapped, but with Zinniapetal's words of comfort, was just about to calm down and agree when the chaos began. She felt herself begin to panic, her breathing becoming quick and sharp and her ears laying flat against her head. It was too much and she quickly found herself rushing out of the medicine-den and into Finchsong. She fell back onto her haunches, staring up at the queen who had Bloodkit hanging from her jaws.
Sparkkit was staring up at Delphapool with wide eyes, feeling his fur lay flat when she told him he would be alright. He tilted his head in confusion when she offered him the feather, but hesitantly took it and held it close to himself. After a few moments, he allowed himself a small smile.

"I'll get the kits. You guys handle the others." Cloverrain said and left the den quickly

Hai. Spark-kit is soo cute))
Delphapool watched Spark-kit. He just may have been one of the most adorable kits she had ever seen. She silently watched the kit cuddle with the feather, engulfed in an adorable aura.

Blazepaw giggled. " I don't think I need to worry about the romanticness of the Meadow for a while." She smiled at her mentor. ❤~Midnight~❤

Blazepaw giggled. " I don't think I need to worry about the romanticness of the Meadow for a while." She smiled at her mentor. (Sorry! I didn't see your post >-<) Coalflare chuckled softly. "I hope not." She looked up at the sky. "We should head back now," she murmured. (So since we're a day behind, wanna skip?)

(Thank you Snow. I tried my hardest to make Sparkkit a ball of fluffy cuteness.)
Sparkkit nuzzled the feather for a few more moments before picking it up between his teeth carefully and holding it out to Delphapool. His fur was sticking out a bit from what seemed to be electricity, so the feather was likely slightly charged.

Oaktree smiled watching Delphapool with Sparkkit.
Zinniapetal: "Let's go get the kits first; they aren't as bad off so it will be easier for you to start on them, and we must always heal kits first anyways," she added. Thistlefoot was coughing, but began to lead them to a nest in the back for the two kits to get settled.

Cloverrain was already working on the kits. It was taking quite a bit of her power to search for and find the depth of the illness but she hoped she was doing something productive.

(Morning!)
Zinniapetal smiled at Cloverrain, realizing she must feel somewhat helpless, despite doing exactly what she was supposed to- to heal.

(Good morning)
Coalflare gave a small nod, padding back to camp.
Hollowpaw had followed Finchsong back into the den. Seeing the kits looking so helpless had crushed her and she had forced herself to calm down. Now she padded up to her mentor, staring up at her. "What shall I do?"

Cloverrain let out a quiet, frustrated sigh and continued healing the kit. She couldn't tell but she hoped she was making progress.
