.:Riversong:.-SunClan "They won't exile you so don't worry.Here you fall asleep and I'll see if I can spot a patrol nearby to give you to them okay."She mewed to the half asleep fallen kit.Glancing up at the moon she sighed.She WAS getting tired.'Better go drop of the kit then.'She thought picking up Pebblekit and padded toward the BoulderClan border praying that she would spot a search party soon.

Mintleaf went stiff, pushing through brambles to meet the border, paws firmly pushed into the soft ground as her hackles rose. Riversong-- a Sunclan cat. And she had Pebblekit. "You'd to best to give Pebblekit back, now." snarled Mintleaf, an overwhelming protectiveness coming apon her. "We might be able to avoid any problems." She looked livid. She was. It was part of her nature. She didn't trust outsiders; including the other clans.

.::Cheetahpaw::. Cheetahpaw nodded solemnly, ready to listen to his leader and mentor. Whipping his tail back and forth out of excitement and protectiveness, the black-splotched apprentice followed Mintleaf eagerly, ears perked forward to catch any sound of rustiling of leaves, or a strange pawstep. Once at the border of Sunclan and Boulderclan, he stood rock-still, glowering at a Sunclan cat by the name of Riversong. Upon spotting Pebblekit, he mimed his leader's gesture, raising his hackles menacingly. "Yeah, you heard our leader. Hand over Pebblekit," he snapped, about to say 'You heard Mintstar' instead of ' You heard our leader'. He knew she was still just Mintleaf for now, but he stubbornly kept thinking Mintstar, and would call her that until she really got her leader name.
.::Crimsonaura::. The flame-furred warrior pelted after apprentice and leader, emerald green eyes fixed ahead. That little kit had better be okay, or else... Or else what? Shrugging the thought off, she scrambled to a stop, a few inches away from the border that separated Boulderclan and Sunclan. She quickly saw Riversong with Pebblekit, and rested her gaze on the tired-looking kit. Feeling a surge of protection for the kit, Crimsonaura growled, crouching low but not stupid enough to attack a cat in its own territory. "Do as our leader says and give back our kit," she mewed with hostility, glaring at Riversong. From what she could make out, Pebblekit was safe, but she still felt uneasy that the kit was in Sunclan territory, with a Sunclan cat accompaning her to boot.

Pebblekit was mostly asleep, everything was a blur. But she knew she needed to stay awake, to prepare for the scolding that Mintleaf would give her…but – wait. They called Mintleaf their leader…HAWKSTAR WAS DEAD? No…no, this couldn’t be possible! No, no, no! No… She remembered that she had an alibi. It wasn’t her fault she’d run away after yet another cat was rude to her. Her mother and father had never even shown their faces to Pebblekit, they’d just dumped her off so far. But…no, she’d try to set the thought aside. But before Pebblekit could say a word, she passed out. Her eyes closed and her hearing ended, her body limp and lifeless. She was just dead asleep, not dead. She didn’t even feel teeth from Riversong gripping her, it was also faded.

.:Riversong:. "Since when did you become leader Mintleaf?Isn't Hawkstar still alive?"She mewed as she placed Pebblekit on the other side of the border."Maybe you should take care of your kits more often.This one crossed the border into SunClan but don't worry no warrior would hurt a kit."She looked down at Pebblekit and then mewed "So much for thank you.Expect BoulderClan to be cold hearted just like ShadowClan from the times before."Shaking her head she left the border back into the yellow grass.

Internally, Mintleaf winced. Hawkstar wasn't dead. As far as she knew. As far as she knew? She was supposed to know. He had to be okay; she knew that she was born to be deputy. No way could Hawkstar die. But the illness? How quickly it had come...
Mintleaf felt goaded to attack but didn't cross the border. Her claws unsheathed slowly, digging into the earth. She stood, petrified, for a few moments before relaxing, her whole body slumping.
"Atleast we weren't weaklings like Windclan." she growled under her breath, so quietly that it seemed that she was merely seething air through her teeth as she muttered under her breath. She tenderly picked up Pebblekit, begginging to move back to camp without another word.
Not that she could say anything if she changed her mind. The kit's fur tickled her nose as she stumbled along the trail, trying not to bob and wake the small kit.
The small kits body was cold- it was getting late. She deposited the body into the nurery, turning to her patrol. "Crimsonaura, I want you to keep an eye out for Pebblekit. Make sure she dosen't try anything again. Cheetahpaw, go get Spiritbreaker. Ask him to check on Pebblekit before meeting me in Hawkstar's den."
She began strolling lightly towards the leader's den, surprised when no gentle breathing came to her ears. She entered, pushing through the lichen curtain only to find the den empty.
What did that mean?

.::Crimsonaura::. Crimsonaura bit back a sharp retort, instead satisfying herself with a soft snort. Upon hearing what Mintleaf said under her breath, she silently agreed. Shadowclan was much better than the gullible Windclan. Pointedly lifting her tail high, she followed Mintleaf back to camp, not waiting for Cheetahpaw to follow. She was sure the apprentice would; there was no need to worry. She started at being asked to keep watch over Pebblekit, but she recovered quickly. Nodding gravely, the vain warrior settled herself beside the kit, brushing her pelt against the little one's fur. She was a tad bit cold, actually...
.::Cheetahpaw::. Cheetahpaw snarled angrily at the accusation, but quickly stifled it as it dawned upon him that Shadowclan may have been cold-hearted, but they were certainly not weak. Sticking his tongue out at Riversong's retreating tail, he swiveled around after his leader and the older warrior, making sure that he kept pace with them, and determined not to lag behind. He stiffened slightly as Mintleaf told him to go fetch Spiritbreaker, and he dipped his head respectively. "Yes, Mintstar," he meowed, emphasizing the 'star'. He was stubbornly going to call her Mintstar, and no cat would change his mind. He hastily spun around, dashing to the medicine cat's den. "Spiritbreaker! Mintstar wants you to check on Pebblekit!" the apprentice mewed quickly, sticking his head into his den.

.:Oakpaw:. Oakpaw woke up as she heard all the fuss outside.Yawning and snapping her jaws together she padded out of the apprentices den and then glanced around and spotted Cheetahpaw.She padded over to him and mewed "What's all the fuss about?"She flexed her claws and noticed that Pebblekit was back from when they fought.

.::Cheetahpaw::. Cheetahpaw kneaded his paws against the ground impatiently, wishing that Spiritbreaker would hurry. "Aw, c'mon," he muttered in anguish, whipping his tail about. He stopped his frenzied gestures as Oakpaw came up, and he quickly relaxed himself, standing up higher. "Well, Mintstar asked me to get Spiritbreaker; y'know, to check on Pebblekit. She's cold and all, and we want to make sure she's well. But to do that efficiently, we need our medicine cat." Snorting, he paced around in a circle once, casting a glance at the medicine cat's den. "What's taking so long? Geez. When in need, never there."
.::Coldheart::. The black-and-white tom glanced up hastily, spotting just in time to see Mintleaf pad into her new den. He had seen Pebblekit be brought to the nursery, so he didn't have to worry about the kit. Biting his lip earnestly, he sighted Cheetahpaw and Oakpaw, and thought about questioning them. Immediately, he dismissed the thought. "Nah, I'd rather get to bed before Mintlead decides to punish me here and now." Grumbling incoherent words under his breath, Coldheart headed to the warriors' den without any enthusiasm, casting glares at any cat close enough to glare at.

Pebblekit was cold, actually. Her pads, however, were fairly warm. Pebblekit had moved from the cold darkness of the forest to the warm light of SunClan. This transition of weather and light resulted in her cold, which hadn't yet been discovered. But a small cough from Pebblekit revealed a suspicion, and she began to shiver.

Ooc: XP Heehee.
..:Crimsonaura:.. The crimson-pelted cat stared down at Pebblekit as she heard the cough, her heart beating fast. Coughing wasn't a good sign, surely? Grinding her teeth in an attempt to calm down, she leaned over and gave Pebblekit a gentle, rasping lick over one ear. Maybe she should try to keep her warm by staying close and giving her licks where she could... Deciding to try out the idea, Crimsonaura shifted a little closer to the kit, running her tongue over Pebblekit's back and her head.

Pebblekit felt slightly comforted by Crimsonaura, the long, smooth strokes running along her head. But she quickly began to feel bad, even worse when something happened, she began to feel...squirmy in her stomach. And then she vomitted (not on Crimsonaura, to the other side of the warrior). Pebblekit whimpered and curled up as tight as possible, shivering horribly. What was going on? Was this what it was like to be sick?

.:Oakpaw:. Oakpaw laughed and then mewed "True enough.Well atleast Pebblekit's back although I though she was gone for good."Sighing she sat down and began to smooth out her fur that was standing up in all sorts of directions.Once that was done she noticed Coldheart and then turned around.

.::Cheetahpaw::. "Yeah, I guess so... But Pebblekit didn't look so great when we retrieved her. I just hope she gets along well." Dragging his tail alongst the ground in agitation, he shot looks of worry at the nursery, something that was quite the opposite of what he usually would do. He never worried. Why now? A little frustrated at himself, he spat at the ground angrily. "Man, where's Spiritbreaker?"
.::Crimsonaura::. Crimsonaura almost leapt up out of startlement when Pebblekit threw up, and glanced around anxiously. What was taking Cheetahpaw so long? Wasn't he supposed to get Spiritbreaker? Unnerved and feeling quite jumpy, the flame-coloured she-cat continued her frenzied licking, forcing herself to slow down and be more gentle. Pebblekit had better not get sick... Or even worse... Pushing that thought in the back of her mind, she instead thought, If so, I have some stern and sharp words for both Coldheart and Coldbreath.

Mintleaf lost patience, slowly treading out of the den and approaching Cheetahpaw. "Spiritbreaker?" she called out into the den, and, when no reply came, pushed herself through the curtain.
To those on the outside, it was as though Starclan had took Mintleaf herself. She went rigid, and literally had stopped breathing for several moments, fear and surprise washing like a tsunami over her as she attempted to gather her bearings. She looked like she was going to barf aswell. For a moment, it didn't matter if the clan was under attack.
Because internally, she was fighting her own battle; from what she knew was true to what she wanted to believe.
