[My jaws opened wide. A fit of coughs escaped my mouth.
I opened my aching eyes. I was on the ground again...
I lifted myself up. My fur smelled like poultices. Moonkit...?
Another coughing fit wrenched my body, and this time I spit up blood.
My body shuddered.
What was this?
Something was gripping me tightly, and sharp claws smashed my throat close.
I cried out.
The grip tightened around my neck. I was gagging desperately.
Glittering eyes stared down at me, and a devilish grin crept across my attacker's face. It's massive paw had me pinned down.
A silent scream flew up my throat, but couldn't squeeze past the paw.
"Die..." it hissed. "Die, you wretched pest!"
(( Yay, Star Slayers attacking an apprentice...fun times. c: ))

[[Waah! Like, in the clearing where she'd passed out?! D:
Oh, no wait...The medicine cat's den?! Dl
Sorry, I'm lost. Dx
If she's in the med. cat's den, then Icestorm and Hawkpaw might be able to help...Is the Star Slayer sort of like a ghost harming her? Like what happened with...I believe it was Brambleclaw and Tigerstar?]

but anyway, you just have to distract it or scare it off. D:
And...uh...if you guys didn't move her, she's still in the clearing...?))

 H a w k p a w“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.”___________________________Hawkpaw sighed gruffly. He felt exhausted already. First he's apprenticised, then his friends faint out of nowhere, and now one of them might be dying...What could possibly come next?
His thoughts were answered by a desperate scream. Leaping to his paws, Hawkpaw darted out of the den and into the clearing to find Thunderpaw on the ground, again, shuddering in pain and what looked like struggle.
“Thunderpaw?”
He mewed, and was about to prod her flank with a paw, but suddenly felt a massive wave of bloodlust hit him like a monster on the Thunderpath. Hawkpaw staggered back a few steps, trying to figure out where this feeling was coming from. At first he thought it was his eyes playing tricks on him, but then he realized that a thin outline of a large beast stood before him, and over Thunderpaw. The transparent shape was similar to that of a cat, but much more intimidating. Hawkpaw raised his hackles, unsheathed his claws and hissed at the beast as it seemed to grin with sadistic pleasure.
“Release her, you accursed piece of foxdung!”
Tail lashing, he snarled at the creature, trying to sound and look more frightening than he really was. Whatever it was, Hawkpaw was sure that it was hurting Thunderpaw.
[[Sorry for making you spoil it! DX
Wouldn't it be called an 'out-of-body-experience'? o__o]]

[The thing hissed. Unsure what to do, its grip loosened, and I scrambled free. Coughing, I crawled desperately over to Hawkpaw.
The cat snarled, but seemed to be retreating. ]
"This isn't over..." it hissed.
[In a moment it evaporated.
I shuddered, my eyes wide. I tried to open my mouth, but found it too painful to speak. I swallowed, wincing from the pain, and shivered again.]
(( Yeah, but one you can control. Several times. c: Only one of them can do it, though. D:
Oh, and i have to go, so just have her follow you silently...or something. I'm tired of making her faint every time i leave. O__O ))

H a w k p a w“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.”___________________________ Hawkpaw hissed and spat with rage as the thing spoke.
“The next time I see you, I'll flay you, you miserable abomination.”
And just as it had arrived, the ghostly beast vanished. Hawkpaw felt like it was suddenly easier to breathe. Just then he saw Thunderpaw try to speak, only to shiver and wince in pain. He thought quickly, wanting to get out of the clearing as soon as possible. Nudging Thunderpaw to her feet, he pushed her towards the medicine cat's den.
“Don't try to talk. Just relax, Thunderpaw. Starpelt isn't in the camp at the moment, but I'm sure I can help you...if only by a bit.”
Hawkpaw led her into the den and motioned her to lay beside Moonkit. He darted to where Starpelt kept her herbs, and tried to remember specific ones.
Okay...When I was a young kit, I was sick quite often, and I remember drinking something sweet and golden...Oh! Honey! There it is! And poppy seed is good for pain...which I think Thunderpaw is in. And...Thyme! It...calms you down! Perfect!
Hawkpaw found a large oak leaf and put a couple poppy seeds and strips of thyme onto it. Then he took the honeycomb he'd found, wrapped in a few leaves, and put it in onto the oak leaf. Hawkpaw then used his teeth to grab the stem of the leaf and drag it back to Thunderpaw.
“I think I've got the right herbs...Here, eat the poppy seeds—and the thyme...Good. Now, let me just open this,” Hawkpaw used his teeth to unwrap the bundle of honeycomb, then pushed it towards Thunderpaw as she finished lapping up the poppy seeds and thyme. “Now chew it and let the honey soothe your throat...I think that...thing...stepped on your neck, didn't it?”
Hawkpaw felt his flanks still heaving and blood still roaring in his ears. He was still frantic, as if the creature would appear next to him at any moment. But now, he just hoped that he'd gotten Thunderpaw the correct herbs, and that she and Moonkit would recover quickly.
[[Oh, okay. And...I've noticed that whenever Hawkpaw leaves either Thunderpaw or Moonkit, they end up unconscious or fatally wounded...or both. xD
Just a note: I had no idea how cats could obtain honey, much less store it, so I just guessed on this. ^ ^;;]]

 (Honey is difficult to obtain without getting stung. still it is possible to have.)
IceStorm looked over at Thunderpaw. Hawkpaw at snarled at something... or someone. She padded over. Hawkpaw had already brought some herbs. IceStorm once again brought some ColtsFoot. She chewed it into a pulp to help thunderpaw's breathing. "Here eat this. It should help you breathe." She said to Thunderpaw. She turned to Hawkpaw. "There might be some honey to soothe the throat, near the back of the den. Go and see if you can get some." She told her apprentice. "It is a gold colored sap that smells and tastes very sweet." She described it for her apprentice in case he didnt know.

 Moonkit
[Moonkit growled in frustration just as Hawkpaw had left.
She was determined to recover as quickly as she could.
She knew that Starpelt had left the night before, going to meet with Starclan at the Moonpool.
It would've been perfect timing if Moonkit wasn't injured, to go with her to be presented to Starclan as a medicine cat apprentice.
Her eyes lit up with surprise as Thunderpaw was dragged in and Hawkpaw was the one healing her.]
[A deep growl emitted form her throat as she glared at the tom.]
It's not fair! He gets Icestorm and medicine cat skills! she thought darkly.
"Juniper berries." she growled sitting in a stiff, upright position.
[She saw the tom's surprise and worry in his eyes.]
"It helps her to breathe, if what you saw is true. This spirit may have caused even more damage than we thought. Thunderpaw was recently attacked right? The squirrel?" she said looking out of the medicine cats, longing for the wind.
"It looks like Thunderpaw has already been given the treatment she needs. So please excuse me." she said, her tone giving nothing away to what she was feeling.
[She went to go bask in the light of the crisp mid-afternoon.
A she began to wash herself, she noticed her hind-leg.
It had 3 neat little stripes in an ash colour.]
For each time I looked where I wasn't wanted. she thought glumly.
[She closed he eyes, feeling more lonely than she had in a long time.]

IceStorm nodded hearing MoonFlower as Hawkpaw went inside the medicine cats den. IceStorm looked at Moonkit. She padded over to the kit. "How are you feeling?" She asked. She could tell the kit was feeling lonely.

Moonkit
"Feeling as if I battled Tigerclan, Leopardclan and Lionclan... then lost." she mewed not bothering to open her eyes.
((Moonflower? Ironically, I'm reading Bluestar's Prophecy.))

(whoops. my bad.)
IceStorm licked the kit in Comfort and set down poppy seeds in front of her. "Here. This might make you feel better." She said to the kit.

H a w k p a w“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.”___________________________ Hawkpaw sighed, feeling utterly relieved now that both young she-cats were taken care of and recovering. Moonkit gained consciousness, much to the young tom's surprise, and he bound over to her in an instant.
“Moonkit! Thank Starclan!” He was just about to give her a joyous lick on the ear, but her painful state and negative attitude made him freeze and take a precautious step back. “H-how do you feel? Did we get the right herbs for you? I just acted on impulse with the treatments...I mean, I've seen Starpelt use poppy seeds countless times, and when I was a few moons old, I remembered honey was used for sore throats—oh, nevermind! What in Starclan's name happened to you?”
[[@Graystripe - It's ok. I think both Thunderpaw and Moonkit are good now...I think. @___@;;
@Sumomo - Ooooh! That was the saddest Warriors book! DX]]

IceStorm took a pace back to give Hawkpaw and Moonkit some space.
