Lizardeye smiled. The easiest way to the old she-cat's heart was complimenting their granddaughter. She knew Dapplesky was most likely okay, but sometimes she worried for her timid kin. Glancing around, she noticed Wolfpaw guarding the elder's den. She waved a tail at him from her position by the entrance. "Little tom, you don't have to guard that old cave, you know. We've all snuck past you when you weren't looking." She gave him a wink and beckoned him over with her tail. "If you'd like, you can help us old geezers guard the camp entrance."

Weaselflare - Outside of camp - with Mossyleap (Dark )Weaselflare let out a low purr when she saw Mossyleap bounding over to her, glad to have some company while keeping watch. "Better to have some cats out here too," she purred. "Can't have any more nasty surprises. Besides, I'm sure they've got it all covered back in there." Wolfpaw - Camp - with Lizardeye (bluewonder ) and Oatstream (Dark )Wolfpaw blinked as Lizardeye called him over but then nodded and padded over to join the elders. He meowed a greeting to Oatstream and then grinned at Lizardeye. "Aww, but what about your nests? We can't have that badger destroy them," he teased. "We'd be collecting new bedding material for you for days and wouldn't get any training done." He shot her a grateful look though, welcoming this distraction from his thoughts about Shatterfrost's patrol.

Tansypool-Returning to Camp-Stoatpaw, Darkwhisper, Patchpaw, Waspfang, Shatterfrost Tansypool looked to the apprentice at his question. Thinking back to all of his experiences with badgers and shook his head. "Not in my experience," he said. "I never fought one like that before, I've only ever fought normal ones." He hoped that it wasn't going to be a common occurrence, Starclan knows they already have enough to deal with.

Stoatpaw - Returning to Camp - with Patchpaw (bluewonder ) and Tawnypool (Ember34 )
Stoatpaw watched Patchpaw out of the corner of her eye, not wanting to be rude by looking directly as he checked his paw, and gave a sympathetic smile. Her own paws and legs ached a little from running and leaping but she was more or less used to it, she couldn't run long distances without getting sore. "You were still there for the battle though," she said. "Only half of it, yes, but that was still pretty brave. And it's not like you were away for no reason, you had to get us after all." She wondered if she should say more but Patchpaw spoke again and Stoatpaw was just as curious as him about that. She looked up at Tansypool and nodded, also wanting the warrior to tell them about that. At his answer she shuddered a little. So that had been his first elemental badger? "They're still not easy though, right?" she meowed to him. "They sound really dangerous, even without any powers."

Shatterfrost w/ Patrol- bluewonder; Pineclaw; Ember34Shatterfrost picked up the pace a little, realizing that the group wasn’t struggling. Soon enough, he spotted the camp entrance and his clanmates standing guard. He dipped his head toward them. “The badger is gone and the camp should be safe, thank you.”

Lizardeye gave Oatstream a friendly bat with a paw before turning once more to Wolfpaw. She was pleased to see that the young tom didn't appear to be offended by her calling him out. She had remembered too late Wolfpaw's disability, and was pleased to see that Wolfpaw himself hadn't taken her teasing the wrong way. "Ooh, don't tempt me." Lizardeye mewed. "I love when the apprentices bring us fresh bedding. Makes my bones creak just a little bit less. In fact, let me just go ahead and tell Thistlestar that we need some fresh moss..." Lizardeye raised her head, pretending to look around for Thistlestar, before returning her gaze to the two tomcats with a chuckle. Noticing the patrol beginning to return, Lizardeye dipped her head to Shatterfrost. "Thank Starclan. Is everyone alright?"
Waspfang In Camp With Shatterfrost, Dark Waspfang followed Shatterfrost until the group had finally made it's way into camp. "Everyone needs to be checked out by the medicine cats before you go to your nests." Waspfang ordered. He turned to Shatterfrost. "And I think it may be best if you gave Thistlestar a report." He glanced over to where the leader was now sitting, crouched on the Speaking Stone, her eyes staring directly at the patrol. A growl rose in his throat. "It seems she's been waiting for us."
Patchpaw gave Stoatpaw a thankful smile, appreciating her attempt to praise his message-carrying. At Tansypool's words, he gave an excited hop, before wincing, realizing he wouldn't be able to do that for a little while. The pain was quickly replaced with excitement, however. "That's wicked." Patchpaw mewed, his fluffy tail wriggling. "So we were the first to fight an earth badger! How cool!" He gave Stoatpaw a bump with his shoulder. "We made Ivyclan history!" Though he might would be exaggerating- after all, just because Tansypool himself had never battled one didn't mean it never happened- Patchpaw couldn't help but draw the most exciting conclusion. As the group made it's way into camp, he let out another excited mew. "I can't wait until the gathering. I'm going to tell all the Willowclan apprentices what happened!"

(Aww, Lizardeye, Wolfpaw would never take offense at one of you Elders forgetting about this. He loves you guys too much and knows you mean nothing by it.) Wolfpaw - in Camp - with Lizardeye (bluewonder ) and Oatstream (Dark )Wolfpaw let out a purr at Oatstream's words and flicked his tail at him. When Lizardeye spoke his eyes widened in mock horror. "No! You can't do that! Just think of us poor apprentices!" he pleaded jokingly. He joined in in her chuckling but instantly turned serious when he heard something approaching. With a hopeful look he turned towards the camp entrance. It sounded like multiple cats so maybe the patrol was back. He let out a quiet relieved sigh when Shatterfrost appeared, followed by the rest of his group. Wolfpaw was especially glad to see Oriolehop and the two apprentices, Patchpaw and Stoatpaw. "They're back," he meowed softly and then padded a little closer to Lizardeye to stand beside her when she asked Shatterfrost if everyone was alright. Some of the cats seemed to be injured but from the looks of it it wasn't too bad, or at least compared to Shadecreek and Mintpaw.

Frecklecloud slowly made her way around camp, eyes scanning for the familiar molly and Mother to her apprentice. She felt a twisting in her gut, knowing more then anyone how one would feel if their kit was injured as Mintpaw was.

Shadecreek - In Camp - Open!
The sounds of returning cats woke him up. Shadecreek was still in the medicine cats' den curled up around Mintpaw. He groaned as he sat up just a bit, body still aching. He knew it was a matter of time before either Thistlestar or Foxskip come running in demanding answers, might as well be up at this point.

Foxskip camp — accompanied by: Frecklecloud
While the badger fight took place, Foxskip chose to guard the nursery and elder's den. She never noticed her son being carried into camp by Frecklecloud. As far as the former queen knew, he was safe in camp.
As her clanmates returned from the battle, she noticed Frecklecloud, who was searching the camp for something or maybe someone. Could it be Mintpaw? Maybe he hadn't fought the reckless creature or so she hoped. The calico tabby decided she would check in with the fellow warrior, wondering if she had fought with the elemental badger.
"Frecklecloud! Is everyone safe now?" she asked, referring to the badger. "Did you fight it? I'm hoping Mintpaw and Stoatpaw weren't involved. They're too young to fight, they are only kits."

"That's who I wanted to talk to you about"She said softly"Mintpaw was there, mainly so Thistlestar wouldn't be on them like a flea. I told Mintpaw to stay back to be safe but.."She sighed"He got closer and the badger charged. He's in the medicine cat's den, I rushed him over as soon as it happened. If you blame me for his injuries, I understand completely, I should have kept a better eye on him"

Oatstream w/ Lizardeye & Wolfpaw- bluewonder ; PineclawOatstream chuckled. “You’ll become a warrior soon enough, though I might still have you change my bedding!” He faced Wolfpaw, whiskers twitching playfully. Shatterfrost- In camp- bluewonder; Pineclaw
“Everyone is fine, though there are a few serious injuries, but nothing fatal,” he assured Lizardeye. At Waspfang’s words, he flicked his tail. “Waspfang is right, I should give Thistlestar updates on what happened immediately.” With that, he dipped his head and made his way over to his leader.

Owlfoot Out of Camp, with Mothdapple Dark ' Yes' Owlfoot replied anxiously, hoping the members of the patrol were ok. ' I don't smell blood, so that must be a good sign.' Tinypaw In Medicine Den, with Hollyflower, Shadecreek, and Mintpaw Dark JunospowerTinypaw beamed with pride at the medicine cat's praise, she was glad she had been helpful. ' Ok' she replied, hoping that they would wake up soon.

(gonna move these two along for arriving at the flower fields if that's okay.) Cedarstorm camp -> flower fields — accompanied by: Pebblepaw Cedarstorm was losing patience very quickly for two reasons. Pebblepaw was taking too long and they did not have time to waste. He knew his choice of not heading to the Flower Fields earlier was foolish and irresponsible. He knew Craneflight would have never made such a moronic decision.
He returned his attention to the black and white apprentice left Shadecreek and Mintpaw, he flicked his tail impatiently. "It's fine," he meowed curtly. "We can't afford to make any stops on the way back from the Flower Fields. The herbs we're gathering are crucial."
Without another word, the umber brown tabby trotted out of camp and made his way towards the Flower Fields. Little did he know that Thistlestar had seen him with Pebblepaw, leaving camp.
Once the pair had reached the Flower Fields, the medicine cat let out a sigh. At least they had reached their destination, but now the hard work would begin. "Pebblepaw, we're going to find marigold first. It's a yellow or bright orange flower. The flower's petals are long and rounded at the top. This will be used to help Mintpaw's leg, it'll ease his pain," he explained.
Usually, Cedarstorm would be sharing this information with Tinypaw, but Pebblepaw would have to do for now. He pointed his long tail towards a medium sized patch of marigold, their bold color catching his eye. "That is marigold," he mewed. "Gather it carefully, don't drop any of it. I'll go find goldenrod. After that, we'll need cobwebs, poppy seeds, bindweed, and whatever I can find."
Pausing momentarily, he turned towards the apprentice. "There may be more luck of finding cobwebs near a tree," he informed Pebblepaw. "We can find it closer to camp. I may also grab dock for any scratches, there's some in the Ivy Forest. Let me know if you need any help."
The tabby tom was quick on his paws before racing off to a tall yellow and green plant. He unsheathed his claws and carefully removed a large bundle from the goldenrod. He made sure that his cut to the plant wouldn't stop it from regrowing. So far so good, he thought before moving on. ( tags: bluewonder | mentions: Craneflight (deceased), Tinypaw, Thistlestar )

Foxskip camp — accompanied by: Frecklecloud Foxskip's attention was all on Frecklecloud and her explanation. Her olive green eyes were fixated on the warrior, her tail flicking anxiously. Hearing her sigh, she braced for the worst news; Mintpaw's death. Except it wasn't it that, thank StarClan. Still, Frecklecloud's news sent a chill running down her spine. He anger was boiling on the surface.
"The medicine cat's den? What injuries? How bad is it?" she asked frantically. Foxskip could not fault the molly for doing her duty. However, she knew who was the most responsible cat and that was Thistlestar. "I should go see him. I need to find Stoatpaw as well. You did nothing wrong. It isn't your burden to bare."
It is Thistlestar's.

Mothdapple w/ Owlfoot- 🐦silvermoon2🐦When they arrived at an area that reeked horrendously of badger, Mothdapple paused and wrinkled his nose. His tail flicked with agitation when he noticed numerous cracks in the ground, as well as scarred patches of grass and leftover shards of ice. “Something definitely went on here.” Hollyfeather w/ Tinypaw, Shadecreek & Mintpaw- 🐦silvermoon2🐦; Junospower; Ember34Upon Shadecreek’s awakening, Hollyfeather calmly padded over and checked to see how he was doing. “How are you feeling, Shadecreek?”

Foxskip camp -> medicine cat's den — accompanied by: Frecklecloud, Mintpaw, Shadecreek, Tinypaw & Hollyfeather "Unconscious?!" Foxskip responded a bit too loudly. She didn't care if all the cats in the clan heard her shriek. "Oh, thank StarClan that Stoatpaw's okay. Shadecreek... he's got good intuition. I'll be sure to thank him." The calico tabby's heartbeat quickened as she hurried after Frecklecloud. She had already been worried about her kits earlier, but now? Now it was worse. Her paw pads were clammy and she hoped that Mintpaw's injuries weren't the worst. After all, he was just a kit-- her kit.
"Mintpaw... My little one," she murmured, looking at the silver lilac tom with sorrow. She noticed he was curled up near Shadecreek, who had just woken up. It was comforting to know another cat was caring for her kit.
Foxskip glanced at Hollyfeather and Shadecreek as they chatted. She wondered where Tinypaw was inside the busy den. Surely she was okay too, right?
"Hollyfeather, Shadecreek," she greeted with a soft tone, trying not to sound distraught. "W-What happened to him? How bad is it? And where is Tinypaw? She's safe too, right?"

Mintpaw-Medicine Cat Den-Foxskip, Shadecreek, Hollyfeather, Frecklecloud Mintpaw stirred from noise, the young tom whimpered, as a wave of nausea hit him. He squirmed in the nest, frowning at the strange combination on his leg. He perked scenting Foxskip, he tried to get to his paws, but he failed to find his footing. The young tom gave one more attempt before giving up, the movements doing nothing to aid in how he was feeling. Pressing his face against his paws, trying to block out what light was in the den.
