Ooc: alright, I will for now. Let's pretend mistyfang never left the den, shall we?
Ic: Mistyfang settled her head on her paws, whatching as Sunheart finished up with her patients. She looked at mistyfang apprehensively, but her medicine catinstincts took hold and she sighed.
" I can look, but please keep in mind that I have never healed a creature your aize. Let me see."
Mistyfang dipped her head and tenderly revealed her wound. Sunheart hissed in sympathy at the blackened and bruised impact,and with the gentleness of a kit mother towards her newborns placed a paw over the obvious fractureline. She felt the suprizingly civil wolf flinch slightly, and could see the pain in her eyes that she quickly tried to hide.
" you know, you are truly something. Nothing at all like the dogs that sometimes come here- they are vicious, and hunt simply for the joy of the kill. But You, Nash, and the pup- sheika, correct? You are all different." She murmered, knowing that Mistyfang had once led a wolf's clan. The posture and leadership skills showed that much.
Sunheart paused. She had to double check. Very lightly, she felt along the break, right to the core. She had been correct- the bone was not simply broken. She inhaled sharply, and said,
"Mistyfang, this is not an adverage break. The combined momentum of the deer kicking out and you leaping towards it caused a.... well, it caused the bone to, in a sense, shatter." She procceded to explain how the bone had broken- instead of one, simple crack, the bone had broken in a way where several small cracks radiated out from the point of the hoof's impact. These breaks were rare, and very hard to heal. She was astounded when mistyfang admitted to putting weight on it. She should have been howling in pain- but she was not.
" ... So, can you try to help me?" Mistyfang asked tenatively.
"For a moment, sunheart hesitated. But she decided that she could not abandon anyone injured who sought her help. Canine or not.
" I will do my best. It was your scent upon the herbs left for stealthpaw, so I assume you know a bit about healing?"
The she wolf nodded. " I'm not an expert, but I know the basics. Cat and wolf immune systems aren't too different herbwise, but horsetail is deadly for us to eat."
Sunheart nodded. " come back to my den in the morning. Try not to put weight on it, and no roughhousing. Here-" she paused and fished out some poppy seeds from her storage. ""Take these. You may try to hide it, but I know that shoulder is killing you." She cut of Mistyfangs protest with a glare. The wolf sighed and licked up the seeds, casting her a gratefull glance. Then Mistyfang turned and left the den, rejoining the others.

Ic: yes hawkblood,bit was!
Ic: Emberstar smieled fondly as the kitprentices approached her. She gestured Hawkblood forth first.
" Shatterkit, youre mentor shall be Hawkblood. I trust that he will pass on all his knowlage-( she paused and glared at him as if to say, no bird riding, ) and skills with fire unto you. You are no longer shatterkit. Starclan, please look after this new apprentice. It is in the name of starclan that I name you Shatterpaw.
'Russetkit, step forth. You shall be mentored by Sparkpelt. Sparkpelt, I trust you to pass on you're own training and knowlage to Russetkit. Starclan, it is in you're name that I name this apprentice Russetpaw. Guide this new apprentice well.
Gingerkit, step forth. Magmaleaf has told me you have a knack for herbs and has requested to be you're mentor. Realize that youmust follow the medicine cat code- you may never take a mate or have kits, and you will travel to the moonstone every half moon to speak with starclan. You are now named Gingerpaw. May starclan guide you well!
Shatter paw! Gingerpaw! Russet paw!" She began the traditional name call, and the clan joined in.
Magmaleaf rested his head on Gingerpaws muzzle, and wispered," I promise to teach you everything I know." -
Nightshad looked at him desperately, crouched over mistymoon. She hauled her sister to her feet and supported her weight, geusturing franticaly for Nightstar to fetch the medicine cat.

Storm wheeled back, flapping hard. Her eyes widened at the explosion, a massive fireball of red and yellow hue, and glanced at iggy and gazzy from the corner of her eye. ell, at least the bomb was effective. Erasers dropped like rocks, they're akward wings making sad attempts to keep them aloft. She silently dove down, landing in a smooth forward roll instead of running to stop her momentum, and joined the others. Her shoulder was the only serious injury, the rest simple scapes and bruises . She pulled back her hair to inspect the clawmarks. Ari had torn right through her hoodie and left a deep mark, which was still bleeding heavily. She cursed silently and hid her wound, looking at the rest of the flock to check if they were hurt.

Erm...nice to meet you, randomperson of epic! Are you the same person as the rawr master?
Ic: Magmaleaf lead gingerpaw to the medicine den, already dropping advice. Emberstar leaped down from the bonfiire and said to the new mentors and apprentices.
" you can patrol the territory and learn battle moves and such tommarow, but I want you to teach them fire training and safety asap. I can't have them burning themselves as full flickerclan cats- that's just nonsense, huh? I will check in on your training in aweek or so to see how its going."
She padded to the fresh kill pile, settling down to eat her prey and share tounges. -
Ooc: kk.
Ic: Magmaleaf contined, " the next half moon is in three nights, and that's when you will become a true medicine cat apprentice. Starclan will walk in your dreams! We will start traveling in just two days, because it is a long trip. I'm not sure how many other medicine cats will be there- shatterclans empire highly discourages meetings with starclan, but most of the med. Cats still meet in secret. And Slipfeather, the glacialclan medicine cat, will definately be there with his apprentice ghostpaw.( sunstreak, you knowthe referance! Lol sorry, back to content). Mosspool and mothwing always try to come, as does foxpoppy with her apprentice rosefall. Barkface of windclan had been banned by wildstar." Magmaleaf sighed, knowing the price to speak to starclan was rising. -
Magmaleaf smiled. " you'll get the hang of it. Hungry?" He asked, gesturing to the fresh kill pile.
-
Mistyfang nodded to nash.
" she said she will try to treat me. Its a radial break, though, so it will take a while."
To sheika, she said," I cannot run at the moment, but if you want, I can play a different type of game with you. Its called fetch. We used to play it al the time with pups. " she blinked heavily, as the poppyseeds took effect.
No....I must not fall asleep. I might show weakness again if I have a memory dream, and I cannot allow that. -
Embermist was out hunting, sucsessfully at that, when the sharp tang of blood reached her nose. She dropped her prey, opening her mouth to draw the scent over her nose. She hastily buried her prey and followed the smell, spotting china.

Ooc: because I can!
Ic: emberstar lifted her head, and called to sunstreak, " you missed the meeting! They are no longer kits. Shatterpaw and russetpaw are going out for fire training." -
Emberstar smilled."In the medicine den, getting her ears talked off by Magmaleaf, I presume. " she licked the traces of her dinner away and stated to clean her fur.
Magmaleaf waited until gingerpaw had finished eating, and gestured for her to follow him out.
" come on, I will teach you how to run with fire. Even a medicine cat needs to know this stuff." -
Embermist sat down. She quietly called out to china,
" I know that you are there, and that you are injured. Come on out." She peered closely at the grey cat."I can see that you probably do not want the clan to know about this, but you do need to stop the bleeding." Embermist was a very understanding cat, always looking out for others. She rummaged around until she found cobwebs, and said, " you should use this, I think." -
Emberstar grinned. " agreed...I need to keep an eye on hawkblood anyways. Let's go."
-
Magmaleaf guided gingerpaw to the flame training area.
"Whatch, and be amazed!" He meowed with a flourish. Then, he padded through the burning flame with ease, his paw pads accustomed to the burning coals. He turned and came back out of the flames, lashing his tail like a torch.
" now, let me show you how its done...." -
Mistyfang sleepily murmured, " basicaly, it means the kick shattered it. Like when twoleg clear-stone gets cracked." She yawned. Why had she agreed to taking four whole poopy seeds? She didn't want to all asleep. She had to whatch over her new friends. She shook her head to wake up a bit and carefully extended her paws before her in a classic bow/stretch, minding her shoulder. The pain had reduced to a numb ache, and her mind was fuzzy with exaustion. She forced herself to stay awake. Her tail swished over the ground and curved neatly around her paws, and she whatched sheika and Nash play.
-
Emberstar chucked and quickened her pace to a brisk trot, taking a soaring leap into a tree. She balanced easily, claws extending breiffly to stop her momentum, and surveyed the mentors with their apprentices below.
Magmaleaf proceded to show gingerpaw the secrets of fire.
"First, you have to walk on hot ashes, then hot coals, and so on until you are able to withstand pure flame. So, we will start with some fresh, soft ash." He scooped a pawfull of the white, burning flakes, and made an apprentice sized pathway. He gestured with his tail.
"Walk," he said, simply. -
Mistyfang smiled, practicaly reading his thoughts. His body language reavealed utter contentment, although he flinched for some reason. Most likely a memory. She had quite a few of her own, after all.
She whatched fleck and sheika romp as the sun went down, painting the sky with a burst of color. She slowly relaxed, relizing that there was no immediate threat. She kept alert, though, ears always sensitive to any danger sounds. She felt safer than she had for moons- it was such a nice change from the "hunger moons" as she had began to think of it. That was the time right after she had escaped from the fluke explosion- alone and with no control of her forms, her mate and pup, her entire pack destroyed, she had run.her last shreads of dignity and hope drove her to survive.She had fallen into deep depression, and had become as thin and ragged as a stray. She had been ready to die when she saw the fire in the distance. She had been drawn to the blazing labratory like a moth to light, and with lupuses guidence found the group fleeing the smoldering ruins. Something had awakenedwithin her. She hunted and whatched over the group, and remembered who she was. She.had a purposee again. She was Mistyfang, an alpha for life. She would never become what she had been during the hunger moons ever again.
Sighing in contentment, she dipped her head and slowly drifted to sleep. -
Embermist smiled kindly.
" no problem, china. " she made a quick survey of china's wounds, and a sympathetic purr rose in her throaght.
" you had quite a fight, didn't you?" She licked the she cat gently, clearing away some of the blood and dirt and sitting down nearby. -
Ooc: hey guys, how am I doing at rp? I started out a few weeks ago, so is there anything I need to work on? And also, does anyone have a plotline request for flickerclan? Just curious! -Misty

Ooc: lupus, sunstreak! I don't think so. However, you can check out certain threads, like in "the pound and lab" category, and you can be tested on in a lab to get those powers. But I think I'm going to keep this thread relatively normal, kay?
Ic: emberstar purred as she whatched the new apprentaces learning how to fire walk. Magmaleaf, who was usally very laid back, was being very...dramatic as he showed off his fire skills, probably trying to make her laugh.
