Mungojerrie woke up with his head pounding. He tried to get up, but his head felt like it was going to exploded. Wincing at his pain he strolled to the opening in the tree trunk and looked out. The morning was cool and crisp. He breathed in the cool air and sighed. Looking out at the tall trees and the distant sun was an amazing sight. Mungojerrie's ears perked up when he heard movement in the tree. He felt a strong body rub up against his own. Turning his head he saw Mistoffelees sleepy face. Yawning and nudging Mungojerrie's face he smiled.

"Are you feeling any better?" Misto asked sitting beside him.

"Now I am," Mungojerrie smirked at him and kissed him gently, "Are you?"

"Yes, my wounds heal quiet quickly as you know," Mistoffelees said kissing him back.

"Yah.." Mungojerrie said trying to deepen the kiss.

Mistoffelees pulled away, "There's plenty of time for that later. We need to get that herb. We've lost half a day."

"Okay, let's go then," Mungojerrie said jumping off the tree and walking towards to cave.

Mistoffelees jumped after him. The gash on Mungojerrie's head looked painful. He felt terrible about it. He should have been able to protect him right? I mean, he was the Mr. Mistoffelees. He must have some way to help or maybe he was more helpless with his powers.

Mungojerrie turned his head back and stuck his tongue out at Mistoffelees. He glared back, jokingly of course, and ran to catch up. Mungojerrie smirked and started to run as soon as Mistoffelees caught up. Soon they were running full speed through the forest. Mistoffelees picked up his speed and ran past Mungojerrie. He turned his head and smiled, but when he turned his head around he found himself out of the forest. In front of him was a massive rock like hill. He guessed that it must have been the mountain.

"Whoa," Mistoffelees sighed looking up.

"How are we gonna get inside?" Mungojerrie asked.

"Check the map," Mistoffelees said.

"Uh," Mungojerrie's eyes went all shifty.

"What?" Mistoffelees turned around.

"I kinda left it in that tree," his ears went flat.

Mistoffelees just looked at him, "We'll have to find an opening and I'll try and sniff it out."

"Well there's one on top. See it?" Mungojerrie looked up.

"Yes, let's get climbing," Mistoffelees said.

The two walked forward and began to climb the steep mountain. Digging your claws into rock was quite painful, but it helps if you move quickly. It's more dangers though. Mungojerrie pulled his body up with all his strength. Climbing this was harder then it originally looked. He stopped for a moment to catch his breath and pulled himself up a little more. He pushed his paw down on a pushed out rock, but it slipped under him causing him to loose his balance. Mungojerrie's heart leap as he held on to the wall tightly.

"Whoa! Are you okay Mungo?" Mistoffelees asked underneath him.

"Yah mate. Just a little slip. Nothing to worry about," he said shakily.

He took another deep breath in and pulled himself up once more. The top seemed so far away, but he couldn't just stop now. Mungojerrie pulled himself up very quickly and was soon at the top. He pulled his body up and over the ledge. He fell to his stomach and breathed hard. He'd never worked that hard to get up somewhere in his life. Even when he went to rob houses there was no need for steep climbing. Soon after Mistoffelees' paws appeared on the edge and he pulled himself up. Mistoffelees cringed at seeing one of his claws ripped out.

"Ahh," he hissed.

"It'll grow back," Mungojerrie sat up.

"Yah.." Mistoffelees starred at him.

"Ready?" Mungojerrie asked.

Mistoffelees just nodded and headed for the entrance.
