O.O It has definitely been a while.. I'm so sorry! Stupid procrastinator brain... oh well. This chapter's short, but I figured that you guys would want a chapter, after it being so many moons and such. Enjoy!
"What herb is this?" Rowanbreeze pointed her tail at one of the herbs in front of them.
"Um," Goldpaw studied the herb, tail flicking in concentration. "Borage leaves."
"And what does it do?"
"Reduces fevers."
Rowanbreeze purred her approval. "Good job, Goldpaw. But you forgot that it is also used to help queens give more milk. Now we need to see if we can find this herb, and some others, out of the den."
Goldpaw nodded, telling herself to remember the other use for borage next time she was asked.
Following Rowanbreeze out of the medicine den, she paused for a moment, standing in the cool breeze that was welcome on that hot day.
They headed out of the entrance of the camp, Rowanbreeze nodding at one of the guards, who Goldpaw knew was Nightstorm. They headed deeper into the forest, collecting herbs they came across. They walked closer to the twolegplace, with Goldpaw hoping that they would find some catmint. Suddenly, Goldpaw stopped, hearing voices. Looking through the trees, she saw two cats, a dark brown and a dark red, and suddenly they were gone. Seeing that her mentor was farther away, Goldpaw scrambled to catch up.
Flashpaw was excited. He was going on his first patrol! With his brother, too, this made it even better. Brightpaw and Flashpaw walked with their mentors, learning the territory as well as leaving scent markings. Flashpaw would shred any ShadeClan, ValleyClan, or OceanClan warrior that came onto his territory!
Well, he would. But there was the fact that he didn't learn any battle moves yet. That may or may not be a problem.
As Flashpaw and Brightpaw walked behind their leaders, Flashpaw thought he heard voices. Glancing at Brightpaw, Flashpaw could tell that he could hear it too. Creeping away from their mentors, the brothers walked towards the source of the noise. They could just see a glimpse of two cats, dark brown and dark red, before they disappeared, noises and all. Flashpaw stood up in confusion. So he wouldn't be able to confront any trespassers today.
There we have it! You might be able to tell who the two cats are if you read Mossflower44's Trouble Follows at Every Pawstep. If you want to read it, go ahead! She helped a lot. :3
