The Not-So-Perfect Life ((Opal & Siblings Only!))

[♫Swiftpath♫]

Raven bounded away from the cramped bush, she shook a few leaves out of her glossy fur. The small kit padded silently over to the group.
"Yeah, when are we going to start training ?" she meowed.

[§Wildheart§]

Foxheart looked at Raven and Rock. They both had the makings of strong warriors, but Rock was more muscular, although Raven could probably take him.
"Right now, if you'd like." He meowed. "I'll show you a simple hunting crouch. Like this," he pressed his fur to the ground and kept his ears and tail down. Then he placed his paws ahead of him and walked slowly forward, chasing invisible prey. "Keep your tail just above the ground so it doesn't make noise against the leaves, and make sure your belly doesn't touch the ground either."
Quick as a flash, he sprang up and landed on Rock's tail, which had been twitching with excitement.

Fernshadow looked at the small kit. "I will help you." she mewed finally, careful not to let the others hear her. "You are clearly meant to become a medicine cat, and I will help you train until we get back to the clans, for I don't know much about healing."

[Sparrow]

"Thank you." Nutmeg said, tears bubbling in her eyes. This is what she has been looking for all these moons, a reason. Not wandering around pointlessly. A reason for being, a reason to be alive. A reason...

[♣Talonstar♣]

wow cool foxheart now ill do it rock crouched down tensed his mucles and lept at raven who tumbled down and then got up to snip at his ear.

[§Wildheart§]

Fernshadow nodded. "We should probably start with herbs..."

---

Foxheart grinned at the kits. He and Wildheart had fought all the time when they were kits. "Good job. You'll feed the clan in no time short." He looked at Raven. "Let's see you try!"

[Sparrow]

Nutmeg pricked her ears extra high and sat up straight, wrapping her tail around her paws. Her eyes beamed with inseriation and wonder. "Okay, well do you know what that Sunflower thing was?" She asked her voice quivering with excitment.

[§Wildheart§]

Fernshadow thought about it. "Could you show it to me? That might help."

[Sparrow]

"Sure." She got up and half-ran, half-skidded over to the pile of Sun petals. I grabbed one and trotted back to Fernshadow, dropping the petal at her paws.

[§Wildheart§]

Fernshadow leaned down to smell the flower. She attempted not to sneeze as the pollen swept up her nose. "This is Marigold. Their juice is good for infected wounds and burns. They grow a lot around the clans, and medicine cats always have a large stock in case there's a battle."

[Sparrow]

((Hehe, its supposed to be Marigold , but that works too ))

[§Wildheart§]

((oops, lol, sorry. i was kinda wonderin))

[♫Swiftpath♫]

Raven twitched her ears with excitement, "Alright!" she squeaked.
Raven copied Foxheart, she put her large ears and long tail down, and put her belly just slightly above the ground. She snapped her head to a passing butterfly, she took a couple steps forward and pounced. She had gotten it, but landed awkwardly. Raven grunted and shook the grass out of her belly fur.

[♣Talonstar♣]

woo that was a good one raven rock shouted

[♫Swiftpath♫]

"Thank you!" Raven called back, grabbing the butterfly in her jaws. She puffed out her chest proudly and bounded over to Foxheart and Rock.

[Sparrow]

Nutmeg cast a glance at her brother and sister, they looked so happy... She wondered if they were coming too. "Marigold." Her eyes shone as she looked down at the soft orange-and-yellow petal. She ran her tail over it, then picking it up with her tail tip, she threw it onto the breeze, and watched it float away. "What's its purpose?" She asked, cocking her head.
