    Scorchingkit fell into pace with Orchidblood. The two mourning warriors had just returned from the burial of Orchewood and Lunecry. Apparently Hailkit had too much of a surprise and had fainted on the spot. Scorchingkit helped Orchidblood carry Hailkit on her back.


    When the two headed into the medicine den, Scorchingkit let go of Hailkit near a nest of brambles. She would be comfortable here. Scorchingkit shook his fur out, the kit weighed more then he thought she would. "I can stay if you have to go back..." he said suppressing a yawn. This drama was all to much for the kits, including himself. Dried blood caked the right side of his face. When he fell off a rock and sliced his head a few days ago, he awoke to his mother finding him. Apparently he had been missing for over a week, and Koisplash had come to find him. Along with her family who was trying to find Koisplash, Scorchingkit's mother. The ginger tom laid down his head next to Hailkit, as a wave of pain rushed over him. The clear ooze of infection filled his nose from the laceration on his head. He almost gagged.

    "She fainted," said Orchidblood as she let her little cousin down to the nearest bed. "Auntie Lunecry...after she found out both her parents died."


    ooc: sorry I missed the thread! You did a great job!

    "And what about him?" Zinniapaw asked, gesturing to Scorchingkit. Gee, this was like a repeat of Coldpaw. "I need one of you to help prop Hailkit's head up a little bit for me, please." She turned, bringing back some fresh, pretty green leaves.


    ooc: Who's playing Hailkit and have they been directed to this therad?

    Scorchingkit sat up, and padded over to Ziennapaw's side. He helped lift Hailkit's head, trying to prop it up. The ginger tom motioned to his head. "I hit my head on a rock. It's probably about four days old. It looks a little infected, well that's what my mom said. She told me to have it looked at before...that happened." Scorchingkit mentioned to the whole ordeal with Lunecry and Orchewood.


    OOC: Thanks Groovy! and I will send a pm to Bonnie!

    Hailkit's head was thudding along with her heart. it was dizzy inside and hurting. She whimpered but didn't open her eyes, scared of the spinning world.


    OOC:Thanks for the pm! And she's just had too much shock and beating sunlight XD and she was a bit weak before XD

    Scorchingkit tried to help, but his aunt beat him to it. Maybe his head injury was worse then he thought. "No. It's fine. I'lll be alright. Lets just make sure Hailkit is ok first." Scorchingkit looked over at the she-cat. She looked to be in pain, before she whimpered and almost freaked Scorchingkit out of his skin. "Well she seems to be arousing.." Scorchingkit mewed with an embarrassing laugh.


    OOC: Yup! No problemo

    Scorchingkit froze up. He didn't know what to say. If he lost his parents...he didn't know what he would do. Probably try to be the big brother and stay strong for his brothers and sisters. Scorchingkit laid down beside Hailkit, and rolled his tail over her ears. Soon she will be awake, and soon she will be back to normal. Like nothing ever happened.

    OOC:Actually Hailkit's parents aren't Lunecry and ochrewood. It' Splotchpaw and who? Stormnight? forgot.XD and maybe this can lead to an eating disorder and some illness laterXD


    IC:Hailkit screamed out as her dizzy head felt like it was filled with chruning water. all this black spinning made her nausious and she shakily opened her jaws and barfed over the floor.

    ooc: Oh that's right!!! Splotchpaw is her mother. Yet Lunecry mostly raised her. so she is often thought of as their mother.


    ic: Orchidblood hissed in surprise at the scream. "What's happening? Zinniapaw what's wrong?"

    OOC:*Nods* she and firekit thought lunecry was thier mother until they were two moons old.xD


    IC:Hailkkit flopped down onto her stomache. She felt awful. But a bit better after vomiting. Making a gurgling sound she fell to dizzy blackness.

    ooc: Guys, come on. All I did was go to see Toy Story 3 and this. Watch the flooding please.


    ic: Firekit was at his sister's side the whole time trying to make sure Hailkit was alright. "Hang in their sissy," the red tabby mewed to his best friend and littermate Hailkit. He snuggled up to her trying to not touch any vomit, though.

    Splotchpaw had rushed in immediately to see that her daughter was tended to and was okay. "Hailkit is everything fine now?" The tortie point asked after her daughter threw up.

    Hailkit whimpered in complaint at all the sounds and voices. Her head couldn't take this all.

    Ambrosiaflare arrived at this point with her usual mouthful of herbs, pausing just inside the entrance to place them down and surmise what was happening. One glance at Hailkit told her most everything she needed to know. "Everyone out please, save for Zinniapaw - you can wait outside but keep your voices down." She spoke quietly but with authority. A calm paw pressed to Hailkit's shoulder. "You'll be fine Hailkit. Concentrate on taking nice, deep breaths for me darling, you'll feel better in no time. Zinniapaw, you have thyme there?" She nodded for her apprentice to continue.

    Hailkit just about heard Ambrosia. Nodding a bit but stopped immediately as her brain just about shook with it, she took a big breathe then exhaled, then repeated several times.
