Tealtide flinched. Something sharp was in his nest and digging at his back. The tom growled in the warriors den and his eyes snapped open as he scented blood. There was something clear and sharp in his back. It had cut a long gash down his side. He sighed and sat up, flinching again. What had he collected in his moss? He bent his head to swipe his tongue down his side and shuddered unhappily as the blood touched his tongue. He swallowed and stood up. It was dark outside but it wasn't so dark that he couldn't see. It had to be sunrise soon. The tom sighed and figured it was too early to go and bother Aquasplash. He sat outside the warriors den, inspecting the wound and occasionally taking a glance at the clear, well, now bloodied piece of something sharp. He couldn't figure it out. He tried to remember where he had gotten the moss but he was tired and didn't feel like backtracking his whole day. His side was throbbing now and he took some time to glare down at the piece of whatever it was that had hurt him, cursing in his head. |

The diluted ginger she-cats dreams were interrupted by the scent of blood. First she was lost in Zephyrclan territory, next she could scent blood, then she opened her eyes to find one of her limbs covered in it as she realized with the absence of another cat she had stretched out in her sleep. Embarrassed she pulled herself up into a sitting position and looked at the sleeping balls of fur that surrounded her on all sides. Her nose wrinkled. Had Tealtide been fighting with himself in his sleep? She picked her way through the other's and out into the underground clearing, almost tripping over Tealtide who was just outside the warriors den at this dark time in the morning. "Oh you silly fur ball!" The she-cat scolded and cuffed him gently over the ears. "What have you been doing now?" She fussed a little grumpily. Lifting her leg she began to draw her tongue over the sticky area the blood had effected, before she saw Tealtide's wound. "Would you look at that!" She whispered trying to keep her meow low as she slipped round Tealtide to get a better look at his wound. "That looks a sore one, are you ok?" She purred sympathetically. She sniffed the wound before beginning to draw her tongue over the surrounding fur that was blood soaked. Silly tom's always getting themselves hurt.

The tom smiled to himself as he heard a cat approach. Actually, scratch out approaching. It was more like..stumbled into. He heard the voice and strained his ears to try to remember who's voice it was. "Oh you silly fur ball!" Ah, the joking tone of Honeymist. The toms smile spread wider as she took a look at his wound. "Is it that bad?" he asked, swallowing. "Maybe I should go see Aquasplash right now.." he mused. He sighed and tipped his head back so he looked at the span of Silverpelt above him. The tom smiled to himself once more as if enjoying some quiet little joke that was playing over and over again in his head. "Enough about me, how did you know I was out here?" the tom questioned Honeymist quietly. Ah, how his side stung. He pushed the pain aside and looked questionably at Honeymist. How had she known he was out here? |

Honeymist took a step back to examine the wound. "It's not too bad, but you should go and see Aquasplash anyway, there is something stuck in it, but I don't want to take it out in case I hurt you more." She meowed. She might make it bleed more and then what would they do? It was always better to wait for a medicine cat, well maybe not always, but most of the time. She took a seat next to Tealtide, casually flopping down and laying on her side. "Well mr know-it-all, in case you haven't noticed your nest has been to the east of mine since oh for however many moons and I was having a dream and when I woke up all stretched out I realized I was taking up your space, but you weren't there. So when I came out of the den I guessed you would be there, plus I could scent you." She informed him and finished with a sharp flick of her tail and narrowed eyes. Then she began to chuckle lightly not being able to hold back. "Silly tom." She teased,

The white she-cat stood alone in a unknown forest clearing. She looked around cautiously, this was no starclan dream, so why was she thinking about this? She didn't even know where she was! It definatly was not in CelestialClan territory, and it didn't smell like TempestClan. It didn't smell like anything really, she could smell trees, prey and... thats was it. She could also hear a river, or waterfall. This was so wierd. She took a pawstep forward, going to explore the strange territory when the scent of blood filled the air all around her. Her eyes widened in shock and she looked around for the injured cat, but no-one was there, it must just be the dream...
Aquasplash jumped awake, she stood in the middle of her nest her fur bristling. She couldn't get the scent away, it lingered in her mouth and nose. She shook her head to try and releive it but it did not go. What if someone was really hurt in camp? She quickly cleaned herself and watched her pelt flatten, then she pulled hereself out of the tunnel that led to her den, who had been hurt? Was it bad?
As she crawled out she heard voices, soon enough she saw that two cats were sat outside the warriors den. Tealtide and Honeymist. She gasped when she saw Tealtides side, it wasn't bad but she could see that something was stuck in it, it was... well, she didn't really know. It looked nasty whatever it was, had be found it out in the territory? She padded over to him quickly and looked closely at the wound.
"Where did you find this Tealtide?" She asked anxiously and she looked at the clear object, she sniffed it, careful not to touch it yet. She could only smell blood though. As long as the thing was pulled out of the toms body he should be fine, though it would have to be protected against infection. Aquasplash stepped back to look at Tealtide.

Tealtide could feel his pelt become instantly warmed. "I didn't do this on purpose, Aquasplash," the tom meowed nervously, knowing that she didn't think anything about the fact that he did do it on purpose. Which h didn't. "And this thing? Well, I don't quite know for sure. I wish I did. I can't remember where I got the moss either, but maybe we should check others nests. We don't want flocks of cats coming to get scratches fixed," he mentioned, biting down on his lip. He stood up carefully. "Is it safe to remove?" he asked. He wasn't quite sure if the piece was sizable or not.

Honeymist took a step back to let Aquasplash in. Just the cat they wanted to see, it seemed she was around whenever you needed her. The creamy colored she-cat dipped her head to the medicine cat as she passed and waited patiently. "You know you are going to live Tealtide, relax!" She half purred, half chuckled. She flicked him over the ear with her tail. After all, it didn't look too bad. It was transparent, and it looked sharp. "Do you need a hand with anything Aquasplash?" The she-cat asked, tilting her head to the side slightly so she could see a bit better.
