Sagefur felt awful! She was sick with greencough and didn't want to get out of her den today, but she knew she had to go see the medicine cat. The only reason she knew it was greencough was because of the giant outbreak that had been taking kits, apprentices, and warriors for the last moon. She just wanted to get healthy again so she could go on with her regular warrior duties, and now she was sa senior warrior, so she had even more!
She padded out of her den, still amazed at how few cats were there. Many were sick. Sniffing her way along, she scouted out the medicine cat's den and waited at the door, trying not to be noticed. She waited until she sneezed, and then, she thought, the medicine cat finally noticed her. (Sorry for the little bit of powerplaying towards the end. Wasn't sure what to do.)

"ABNORMAL".tags;; etc;; CloudClan almighty, the amount of cats with greencough this season has been putrid. It wouldn't be long before someone kicked the bucket, and Littlefox could already imagined the weight of death on her shoulders.
A muffled sneeze was heard outside the den, and for a second Littlefox thought one of her patients was trying to escape into camp.
"Mintfrost, that better not be you sneezing! TreeClan doesn't need their own medicine cat dying of a chest infection!" Hurrying over to the entrance, she was met by not her apprentice, but another clanner. "Oh, sorry about that. You're Sagefur, correct? What can I help you with?"

(Sorry for the short post, iPod)
"Oh, hey! Yeah, that's right. Sagefur." She was nervous, therefore rambling. "I'm not feeling to well... I think it might be green cough...."
(Is it possible that I could die or something)

[It's fine xD As for death, you'll have to PM Whitehawk or Darkstar.] "ABNORMAL".tags;; etc;; The ginger and white she-cat held back a hiss out of frustration. Not another one! The entire clan was practically under an epidemic; this couldn't continue much longer before cats started hitting the ground like fallen leaves.
"Are you absolutely sure? How long have you been feeling sick? For now it could just be whitecough, but I'd much rather treat it before it gets worse."

Sagefur looked at the ground nervously. She had thought it was just a little thing, so she'd been keeping it to herself for a little while now. Now she was feeling really bad then she had been earlier. "Um...you see Littlefox, It may have been going on for a little while......" She felt ashamed but hoped the medicine cat would still help her.

"ABNORMAL".tags;; etc;; "Ehh?! You should have come to me sooner!" she scolded lightly and flicked the warrior with her tail. Turning around and waving her tail for Sagefur to follow, she began sorting through her stock of remedies.
Stifling a groan as she noticed there was hardly any honey left, Littlefox dabbed a bit of what was left on a leaf and gathered other Leaf-bare essentials. Lavender, tansy, what else...
In terms of whitecough or greencough, that was all that was needed. Besides catmint, of course. Glancing around, she spotted the very few leaves of catmint that remained after so many other patients have been treated. Littlefox could hardly stop glaring at the pitiful pile; it was basically mocking her.
"What are the worst symptoms you've experienced?"

Sagefur looked down at her paws uneasily. She felt ashamed that she hasn't come in earlier. "Um...mostly just coughing...a lot of coughing, fatigue, sore throat. That kind of thing."

"ABNORMAL".tags;; etc;; Trotting back over, she placed the leaf of honey and tansy at the warrior's feet.
"Take one leaf of the tansy and then lick up the honey. Make sure you do it in that order too-- it'll taste a lot less bitter, believe me. Your fatigue is pretty normal, so for now just rest. If it gets to the point where you can hardly run, come to me and I'll give you some elderberries."
Littlefox clicked her tongue in deep thought. Sagefur was definitely sick with something, but it seemed more like a cold than anything. She didn't want the other warriors catching it, but at the same time, her condition might be worsened if she stayed in the Medicine Den with the greencough patients.
"You can stay in the warriors' den for now, but I suggest you move your nest away from others. I'll have to consult Whitehawk to see if he can get some cats to re-arrange the nests in a way that ill warriors can sleep in the center where it's warmest. The nests of those that are well enough should be at least a couple tail-lengths away from them to prevent the cough from spreading... moreso than it already has, anyway. If your symptoms get any worse, you'll need to have someone else train your apprentice, as well as move in here for the nights. So be sure to keep a close eye on them."

hesitantly, Sageleaf licked the honey before then taking some of the tansy. It tasted bitter, though probably not as bad as it would have if she had eaten it without the honey. That would have been a nightmare.
Then she listened to the rest of what the medicine cat had to say. "Yes Littlefox." She replied. "I will move my nest and notify you if I feel worse." She summed up, making sure she understood.
