Featherpaw scented the area before trotting a tiny bit closer to the WaterClan border. "So, Spottedpath," the apprentice asked the medicine cat, "what kind of herb are we looking for?" The grey she-cat had decided to accompany the older she-cat in her hunting for herbs, and had so far had fun on her way.

"Anything you see with flowers, tell me. It might be useful." Spottedpath padded over to where Featherpaw was standing. "But watch out for Goldenrod. It's best for healing wounds. It is tall, and has bright yellow flowers that are very pretty and stand out in the undergrowth."

Looking around after calling an, "Okay!" back at Spottedpath, Featherpaw set to work.
It was surprisingly hard to find just the right thing... Jynxivy scented the air, then blinked in surprise. "Spottedpath?" she called loud enough so that the other medicine cat might hear. "Who's with you?"
Featherpaw jumped a the voice, which she didn't recognize, and moved a little closer to Spottedpath.

Spottedpath jumped at the call. "Jynxivy? Is that you?" She poked her head up to see better. "This is Featherpaw. She is helping me look for herbs. How are you? I haven't seen you in a while."

Jynxivy purred at the greeting. "Yes, it's good to see you. I've been good. And you?"
Slightly nervous still, but calmer now that she knew the other cat was a medicine cat, Featherpaw went back to searching for the flowers, ears perked in the direction of Spottedpath and Jynxivy.

"All is well with me." Spottedpath replied. " And nothing too exciting going on in camp. We have one pregnant queen though. New kits will be good to raise the clan's spirits after Lichenstar's death. And you? How are things in WaterClan?" Spotted path ducked her head, after thinking she spotted some catnip, it turned out to be a soft shrub and she went on hunting.

Featherpaw perked up her ears. Someone was pregnant? (Ha, she doesn't know 'cuz Flowereyes has been hiding it. XD) She swiveled her ears in the direction of the two older she-cats, listening hard now. Maybe she could learn more news. She felt a twinge of guilt that she could think of gossip right after the mention of Lichenstar's death, though...
"Well," announced Jynxivy, surprisingly proudly, "Birdpaw is now Birdwing. He's finally been made a warrior, and Haloheart's been made deputy." The she-cat purred softly as she remembered the pride and joy on the two toms faces. Then, thinking for a split second, as if wondering if she should tell Spottedpath, shrugged and added, "And I might be getting an apprentice soon."
Featherpaw looked up at the great news Jynxivy had presented. Things sure seemed to be going well for WaterClan... She couldn't exactly say the same for HillClan, except for this unexpected news about a queen. She wondered who it was...

"That's great news Jynxivy!"Spottedpath exclaimed "Can you tell me a name or is it still a secret?"
((Sorry for super short post. I am tired.))

Jynxivy considered the question. "I suppose I can tell you, but it's not certain yet." Her ears twitched, as if they would fall from their high perch on her head. "You know Silverwind's three kits? I'm hoping Deerkit will be my apprentice, once she's old enough."
Featherpaw looked up from where she was sniffing the ground for herbs and said, "That's great, Jynxivy."

"It's wonderful that you have found an aspiring apprentice..." Spottedpath looked down at some leaves and considered for a moment, "But I am still keeping my eyes open for any cat who shows promise." She then reached down and lifted a bunch of the leaves and dumped them beside her in the start of a pile.

"Hmm." Jynxivy agreed, nodding. "It seems that all apprentices want to be warriors, these days."
Feeling slightly uncomfortable, as she fit into the category of "all apprentices", Featherpaw pretended like she spotted something a little farther away and went over to "investigate". It wasn't her fault she wanted to be a warrior.

Spottedpath raised her head again. "Yes well, I cant exactly blame them. I wanted to be a warrior once myself." She padded over to a bush and poked her head in. She didn't find anything.

Jynxivy purred at the comment. "They just want to fight, which I guess I can relate to."
At this odd sentence, for Featherpaw could still hear, the apprentice squinted to see WaterClan's medicine cat's figure. Surprise penetrated her mind as she saw the many battle scars, most of which seemed to have been healed hastily, and let out a slightly impressed gasp.

Spottedpath looked up again. "Oh, to be an apprentice. Full of endless energy, every outing an adventure. I wish it was like that for me again..." Her voice trailed off as she thought back, back to a time when the forest was very diffirent, free from modern troubles with twolegs. "Do you remember then Jynxivy? Back when the twolegs arrival had yet to come to pass?"

The medicine cat's tail swished through the air and she purred. "Ahh, to be so young..." she said, almost wistfully. "It was so trouble free..."

"Indeed. So, then. Any news from about the clans that I may not have heard of?" Spottedpath asked. She was wondering what the other clans may have heard of Lichenstar's death, and how it would affect the other clans. Shock breifly passed though her mind but she quickly pushed it away. The other clan leaders wouldn't do take advantage, would they?

Jynxivy thought about this, then asked, "Have you heard about Jasmineheart's kits? I wasn't sure if you were at the last Gathering, or not..." She settled down, ignoring the herbs she'd already collected for now, in preference of waiting for Spottedpath's reply.

Spottedpath was heartened by this news. "Kits? That's great Jynxivy! How are they? All healthy I hope?" Spottedpath sat down now. She was going to enjoy this talk.

"Yes, I believe they're all healthy..." The medicine cat answered, tilting her head. "Mistypaw made it sound so--You know, that one GrassClan apprentice? Mentored by Pumaheart? Yeah. She was telling Birdwing about them." Jynxivy watched Featherpaw, who seemed a little frustrated that she couldn't find something. "GrassClan's lucky to get kits, even if it's in a season like this..."

Spottedpath nodded. "Yes. I hope they do well. Flowereyes is expecting kits aswell. They are coming soon, and it will brighten up the rest of the clan from the mood they are in at the minuit..." Spottedpath sighed as she remembered the moment she had heard of Litchenstar's death. Greif once more brewed inside her as she remembered speaking to him the very morning before he died.
