    The baritone vocals of the newly crowned co-leader resounding within the camp, alerting the young medicine cat apprentice, ceasing him from continuing his duties. His words took a moment or two to process, eyebrows furrowed and his eyes squinting to focus on the scarred male's face. Weekly tasks? How peculiar. He supposed he could make himself useful and ask for some sort of task to complete. He staggered tiredly from the practically empty medicine den, ears pressed against his skull, ceasing by Cicatrixface. "Could, um, c-could I have one?"

    The cool silence that settled upon the camp relaxed the once taut muscles of the medicine cat apprentice, finally able to melt off the constant worry that always hung around him, tightening his whole physique. With the strenuous duties of being the only medic remaining within the clan, not to mention his lack of knowledge of the healing arts, it became immensely difficult to maintain his title without going completely mad. Embertail was his guide, but her disappearance warranted an untrained medicine cat within a clan that needed someone to rely on. Shrieks of quarreling cats cut through the still quietness, disrupting the peace that had once been. Smokepaw's stomach clenched at the vicious sound, the fur along his spine rising as he rose quickly on to his ivory paws. Wide, icy pools darted around the packages of herbs, trying to distinguish which one wold aid in a possible injury. M... Marigold? He inhaled a deep breath, knitting his eyebrows together as he reached down and clamped the ivy leaf bundle that contained the golden-yellow flowers, pivoting around to hurriedly sprint across camp. He easily shrugged past the brambles of the camp entrance, huffing gently through his flaring nostrils, going over simple procedures his former mentor had went over with him before her mysterious disappearance.


    Mouse-lengths away from the scene, the terrible caterwauling ceased and Cicatrixface's authoritative voice resounded through the small clearing. The anchor and alabaster tom skidded to a halt by them, chest heaving as he attempted to catch his breath. He set the bundle on to the ground, optics flickering over each cat with a sense of urgency. "I-Is anybody hurt?" he hissed lightly through his teeth, his wandering gaze stopping at the foreign feline. Who was that? Why did they rough him up like that? "What-what happened?"

    At last the decision was final - the travel to Skyclan was official. The conclusion to wait a little while for Embertail to return, but it had been a week with no trace of the medicine cat. It was as if she dematerialized into thin air and was carried oddness with the wind, never to be seen again. He wasn't fit to heal his clan, his knowledge was nonexistent and he always felt so useless. Smokepaw slithered forward on quiet paws, small patches of his fur missing, rings darkened beneath his eyes. He plopped down heavily, eyes dropping closed for a moment before they snapped open, blinking rapidly.

    Medicine cats weren't the only ones vanishing off of the face of the earth. Leaders, deputies, innocent warriors. It was as if Starclan were punishing them, punishing him. He was a foreigner in a world full of pure-bloods that didn't want him. The constant patronizing looks, the tense atmosphere when he neared, the sense of not belonging. He supposed it came with being a prisoner in a place where being different was a sin. "I... Embertail is missing. I came here to ask, Audenine, if... If you can mentor me in her absence?" he murmured, his eyebrows knitted together as his wide, icy blue eyes stared at the fellow medicine cat.
