Rosedancer rose to her paws, inching closer in order to press her muzzle into Mistycloud's still pelt. "None of this is your fault, Blizzardpaw," she mewed as she rose to her full height once more. "Your mother held the same priorities. I'm sure she would be very proud." The words of Blacksteel still hung in the air, Rosedancer knowing all too well that Blacksteel was supposed to stay away from everyone else for a reason. And now Wolfstar walked with Starclan.
Her gazee to meet Blizzardpaw's- they read of many things, as all eyes would at that moment. Knowing death was close, the many troubles of age, all coated with the glow of confusion. Why, Starclan? Why must you torture us so?

" Ravenstar isn't dead. And Moonsoul does not walk the skies of StarClan, Sweetpaw." Blizzardpaw mewed. He knew all too well the truth about Ravenstar and Moonsoul, thanks to a dream from a cat... Blizzardpaw shuddered. Lionpaw. Who was in the badlands. Lionpaw was dead?!
" Rosedancer, stop. I know this is my fault. Now both my parents are dead and I never spoke to them within their last days. Now all I have is Icepaw and you, my only two friends."

Sweetpaw looked at Blizzardpaw, "What do you mean?" She asked him.

Rosedancer waved her tail before Sweetpaw. "There is no collelation between you and the deaths of your parents. Blacksteel was... deranged, if I may chose the wording. How he died, it was..." she sighed, trailing off. "And Mistycloud was grieving over him until tonight, when she went out to try and protect her clan and her family. There is no reason why you should blame yourself for this." And for one, I can speak clearly of.

Blizzardpaw opened his mouth to deny what Rosedancer said, but thought better of it. " Alright. I'll have to sit vigil later, I still need to patch up camp. And no, I will not rest, Rosedancer." He poked his tongue out at the medicine cat, a losing battle to hide the affection in his green gaze.

Rosedancer sighed, smiling weakly as she waved Blizzardpaw off. Some just never seem to change.... "Sweetpaw, you may rest for now and take up work in the morning. It's going to be a long night," she mewed ithout looking to the apprentince. Her paws turned and padded back into her den, watching Jaypaw and Hollypaw as they slept beside Eaglebreeze; instinct took her to her bed. She took note of the changed bedding before she was claimed by sleep. Her work would still be there for her tomorrow.
||My sleepiness is rubbing off. *yawns* And her total lack of noticing things is fun too X3||

|| DUN NA NA NA NA NA. Crack of dawn has risen.||
Blizzardpaw sighed and paded into the medicine cat den and sat down, waiting paitently. A gash he had receieved from Leopardclaw on his hindleg had reopened while he finished the last of the duties. The cats were still traumatized, but for now the camp was patched up all in one night. It would've been faster if someone had actually helped Blizzardpaw. A thorn was in his paw from rethorning the entrance. His fur was matted with brambles after dragging and replanting a thicket to cover the nursery since the old one had gone missing somehow. As his gash seeped out blood he remembered how hungry he was.

The overwhelming scent of blood and bramble drove Rosedancer from her sleep; hey green eyes fluttered open to Blizzardpaw's paws. It wasn't long before she fell back with headrush before she could sucseffully speck to the tom. "What happened? Are you all right? Have you been up this whole night? Look, you're bleeding! There now, sit over there," she mewed frantically, sleep rejuvinating her. Her paws works nimbily around the neatly-stocked herbs until they resed on gumweed and cobwebs.
"Here we go," sge mewed to herself, moving her materials between herself and Blizzardpaw. Rosedancer seated herself and began to work. "So, mind telling me what I missed?"

Blizzardpaw nodded. " I was up all night. The camp is all patched up now, but I accidentaly opened up the scratch on my leg-" Scratch?! More like inch wide gash! " and I got brambles in my fur because when I was replanting I fell over the bramble plant. Also, from the thorn barrier, I have a thorn deep in my paw." Blizzardpaw mewed. That was all?! The tom was up all night by himself to repair the camp. He ate the gumweed and flexed his claws. " Lionpaw is dead. I found his body at the entrance of camp. It looks like, surprisingly, he was trying to chase something off."
Jaypaw had enough strength to sit up now, so he did. Hollypaw slipped in and out of conciousness everynow and then, and she mewed in protest when she heard the words 'Lionpaw' and 'dead'.

Sweetpaw gasped when she heard her brother was dead. That was one of the last family members she had.
Eaglebreeze looked around in the clearing.

Icepaw gave Blizzardpaw a funny look."What could Lionpaw be chasing?" she mewed as she watched him eat the gumweed. She started grooming herself, trying to get the blood out of her pelt. Her fur was still tousled from when Shortstide had picked her up. SHe had been calm and collected even when she saw her mother's cold lifeless body.There was death all around her. Why should she care if one more cat died? They were either going to be evil anyways or just die.

Rosedancer sighed at word of another death. "Another one..." she mewed solomly, unaware of his connection with Tigerheart. She turned and gave Icepaw a lick before se went to retrieve some poppyseeds for the four ingured cats. "Where have you been, Icepaw?" she mewed frantically; her calico paws moved a few seeds in the direction of Blizzardpaw, Eaglebreeze, Jaypaw and Hollypaw. "I know these don't taste the best but it will help. Now, lets move that thorn...."
Her jaw griped around the thorn and pulled it cleanly loose, patching up spots of it with the cobwebs before plastering it to the wound. "Thre we go. The gumweed should help your leg, the poppyseeds should still the pain as the cobwebs the bleeding, just leaving the brambles." Rosedancer started working through his white fur in attempt to clean it. "Well, where you all night Icepaw?"

Eaglebreeze ate the seeds Rosedancer push to him.
Sweetpaw licked her brother ear, "Good-bye Lionpaw, Good-bye Brother."

" I don't know, maybe he tried to follow the rogues- wait, should we bring Leopardclaw up at the gathering?" Blizzardpaw mewed, purring a thanks to the medicine cat as the thorn was removed. He removed the rest of the burrs and purred a bit louder.

Rosedancer withdrew, eyes lost in thought. "Hm? We should- it could break Stormclan if they let him back into their midist. I'll go and tell him now- and Blizzardpaw?" she mewed, pausing as she was half-way out the entrance. "Thank you for everything last night. I don't know what I would've done without you." The words came out as a purr that held a bit more than praise, but only as she could do. Only as a mother could do.
||...And now, Gorsestar knows! ^^;||
Rosedancer padded back in and seated herself before Icepaw. "Icepaw, I would believe it's time you retrieved your warrior name, as you hald already helped much of this clan." She knew that this had to be done before she was claimed by Starclan, even if it was a bit early for her. "Icepaw, today I grant you with the name Icerose. May Starclan watch and approve of their new medicine cat."

Blizzardpaw looked up. " Well, most of your berries are crushed. Do you want to go see if there are anymore herbs lying around in the forest?" Blizzardpaw asked, standing. " My leg should be fine for now."

Rosedancer paused, thoughts wandering to Jaypaw and Hollypaw for a moment before she shook her head. "All right. Icerose, watch Jaypaw, Hollypaw and Eaglebreeze for me please," she mewed, rising to her paws. "Lead te way, Blizzardpaw."
