Leafpool, Alderheart, Finleap and Twigbranch set out on an adventure to gather herbs for their clan. They set out into the wilderness in high spirits. Finleap and Twigbranch chased each other through the forests and fields, playfully swiping and nipping at each other's tails. Leafpool and Alderheart padded behind their clan mates with warm smiles. Such a beautiful day. What could go wrong?

Unbeknownst to Leafpool, Alderheart, Finleap and Twigbranch, they were not alone. Once they had picked all the herbs they could find in the field, Leafpool, Alderheart, Finleap and Twigbranch padded into the forest to rest in the shade. The four cats rested until an uneasy feeling woke them, the medicine cats started to make their way back, but they became separated in their half asleep states. The snake who followed them slithered quickly to evade the four cats, popping out from hollow logs and behind tree trunks. Staring deep into the eyes of Leafpool, Alderheart, Finleap and Twigbranch. One by one.

The strange sensation spread from the pads of their paws, covering the top of the medicine cat's paws and up their legs. The lines grew thicker and thicker up the inside of their thighs to their underbellies. The intensity reminded Finleap of his mother tongue-bathing him when he was a kit. He looked over to his mate who was still panicking. Finleap reached one paw out to grab Twigbranch's paw to comfort her. Despite his strength, Finleap could no longer move his paws. It was as if three of his paws turned to stone. Twigbranch relaxed a little as she looked into her mate's yellow eyes. The petrification spread quickly across her smaller body. Creeping under her tail. It felt quite pleasurable for the she-cat as the stone massaged the folds of her pussy. A single tear rolled down her cheek as her face turned to stone. Her once dainty and soft paw gripped onto Finleap's paw forever.

The petrification was slower for him than his mate. The branches of petrification slowly engulfed his balls and sheathed cock. Squeezing. Tugging. Stroking. Finleap's paw was already fused with his mate's paw or else he would have tried to rub himself. He bared his teeth, slumping forward as he tried to ignore the pleasure. With all of the strength he could muster, Finleap lifted his head to see Leafpool and Alderheart were also losing their fight against the petrification. Finleap could no longer move due to the weight of his petrified fur coat. His spine, shoulders and neck completely turned to stone. Only his head remained. He let out one last mournful cry before even his head turned to stone.

Darkness settled over the clan's territory like a blanket, worrying their clanmates, kin and friends. A search party set out to find Leafpool, Alderheart, Finleap and Twigbranch. The fearless search party stumbled upon a clearing, coming face to face with an enormous snake. The snake's piercing gaze had a strange effect, turning the search party into stone one by one, to share their clanmates, friend's and kin's grim fates.
