[Short xD] She was always afraid to come in here! Just the things that lie here. Herbs? Well, what was she here for anyway? Yes, she had a stomach ache and a head ache. Her head pounded furiously through her.
"Brightflame..!" Winterpaw called in, more like a whine. Her eyes glistening as she peered into the den. Feared the medicine cat was mean and cranky. But she didn't know that. Was she sick?

I pad into the main den, smiling when I see the apprentice. I rush to your side, letting out a sigh of relief when I see no injuries. "Hello Winterpaw! Nice to finally meet another one of my grandchildren. Is something wrong or did you just stop by to visit?" I ask. (I'm Redstorm's father by the way. I wasn't always Med-Cat.)

[Hey! That is awesome. It's a honor to meet you, Brightflame. :3 Glad to RP with you! ]
Grandchild? It was true after all. So this . . this cat was Winterpaw's grandfather. Meaning, he wasn't a mean cat at all. All her worries faded.
"Well . . . I never ever been here before." She admitted,"And something is wrong, my head is hurting. A lot. And I think I ate something bad. A mouse." She felt a bit embarrassed about it. Winterpaw looked at Brightflame happily,"Wow! You work here? Your a medicne cat!" She purred happily,"I thought this was a scary place."

(Likewise Winterpaw!) I smile and rest my tail reassuringly on your shoulder. "Don't worry, this is the safest part of the clan. The scariest thing that ever happened here was when your father got a cut and had to stay for a week. Nobody visited for a while after that!" I laugh, hoping you feel more comfortable. I sniff around you and place a paw on your forehead, checking for fever.

She did laugh," A cut? 0h! That's painful." An injury? Winterpaw never had yet. But I do think she was coming down with a fever. She felt wamer than usual when her grandfather had a paw to her forehead. Warm and getting a bit dizzy. "Safe?" Her ears perked up,"Cause your a great cat!" She purred happily but it didn't last long when her head fell into Brightflames chest accidentally. "I'm dizzy .." She murmured.

I let you lean against me, guiding you to a soft nest that's close by. I lay you down in it, "I'll be right back, focus in the sound of the running water." I say calmly, gesturing to the small brook that ran through my den. I rush into the herb store and return a few minutes later with several different herbs. "Eat these, they'll help." I say warmly.

After being walked through, she did lay in the nest. It was very comfortable. And the den looked very pretty from the inside. Big. She caught the scent of herbs too. One she reconigzed as honey. She did listen to the water, it did sound nice. It sounded like wind blowing against tree leaves. She seen Brightflame come with herbs and she looked at them curiously, having not seeing any herbs like these. "Thank you. Umm what are they?" First, she nibbled on one of them. It tasted different.

I nose some of the loose moss back into your nest, "Tansy is the one you're eating right now. The others help with bellyache, headache, and the dizziness." I say. "You're sick, I'm sorry to say. The good news is that it's nothing serious, just a mild flu. I'll have you back to training in no time, but until I can you'll have to stay in here to avoid making anyone else sick." I say as reassuringly as I can. (Your Grandmother was Bluestream. In case you were wondering. Then your great-grandparents were Weaselfur and Flowerstorm.)

[Ok. :3]
"I'm sick?" She wasn't surprised as much as she would be if she didn't find out who her grandfather really was. She was very happy on finding out. She wasn't scared of the den either. She finished the Tansy and just set her head down in the nest she was in. 'I'll have you back to training in no time.' The words she heard. "I don't mind. I don't have a mentor. I just came an apprentice a few moons ago. I'm not happy about training." She mewed casually,"But if I'm here-"She didn't finish cause a cough interrupted her sentence,"I'll bet I'll be the next medicine cat." She mewed saying a bit jokingly.

I purr quietly, "Yeah. I wish I could take on an apprentice but Wildstar only wants two Medicine Cats. Unless Waterheart resigns, I'm afraid I can't." I sigh. I look back and forth mischievously before leaning down to whisper in your ear, "Just between you and me, I'm the only one who does any work. He's always MIA." I whisper jokingly.

She grinned,"Never met him. He could be off dawdeling around with catnip." She purred,"But I'll help you with anything you need, if you need the help."
For a moment, she mewed," I hear training has fighting moves in it .. I don't think I'm the fighting type at all. I can't fight another cat, even if it was my assessment." Winterpaw did say she didn't have a mentor, which was true. She wasn't a violent cat who fought others, ever. "Were you a warrior once?" She looked at her grandfather with wonder,"Isn't fighting bad?" Winterpaw asked as she ate another herb which she made a sour face out of. "Ick. That tastes . . blah!" She mewed disgustedly, not meaning too. [lol]

I smile and nod, "I was a warrior. I was a good one too, but definitely couldn't help getting into mischief. My friends, Bluestream, who was your grandmother, and Blazefoot, who was a dear friends of mine. We would constantly run off and get in trouble together, we would annoy grouchy old Shadefrost, and even became warriors together. Blazefoot disappeared before your father was born, and Bluestream vanished when he was an apprentice. I wasn't around much either, I was always off on a patrol of some sort, seeing as I was one of the better warriors. After a while, I lost my fighting edge, became more of a peacemaker, and since Waterheart raised me for half my life, I decided to become a medicine cat. I epiphany say fighting is wrong, but I have a...a good friend who does it for me."

She giggled,''I'm more like you. I like exploring. I didn't go in the territory just yet but me and you should!" She purred happily,"Please? If I get better? When you have no other patients.. It would be fun!" Now she was eager to go out of camp with her grandfather. "And I guess I got sick because I'm outside a lot. It's always so warm in the den and crowded. Some cats talk throughout the night, not all the time though." Her ears perked at the mention of SHadefrost,"I met her. She's nice, kind just like Ivycloud." Winterpaw's loving mother,"My mother is a bit too affectionate though. It was hard when I had to leave." She purred. Winterpaw enjoyed talking. She bit into something that looked like a leaf.

I purr back, "I'll come find you when I have free time." I say, smiling. I look at the sun, "I'm afraid I have to go though, I trust you'll finish your herbs. I'll be back in a bit, don't leave the den, and don't go into the herb store." I say sternly.

She was surprised,''Your leaving? Don't you live here in the den?" She asked, she hoped there was other patients in the den so she wasn't alone. Oh wait ._. He must be going to hunt for more herbs?"Since I'm here, am I able to talk to the other cats in the den here?" She looked up with pleading eyes, she just didn't want to be alone. "And you'll be back, for sure?" Winterpaw mewed, laying her head down once more. She was geting sleepy each passing moment and her eyes were beginning to shut.
