Cats of LavaClan!...
Cats of LavaClan! Gather under highstone to hear what I have to tell you! (THIS IS NOT AN EVIL CLAN!!!!!) Greetings, clan mates. My name is Beachstar. I am leader of LavaClan. We live on an island. We live in Lava tunnels, hence the name. Our medicine cats den is its own tunnel. We can run very fast in order to catch mongoose (i was in Hawaii lately so this is all kinda based of that), we can swim to get fish, we climb trees, and we can jump very high to catch birds. Our prey is plenty here, and there's never much snow, so we don't freeze in winter! We need a deputy, medicine cat, warriors, apprentices, queens, and elders! PLEASE JOIN!!!

And, um, Tankit/paw (whichever)? The thing is, you said you wouldn't leave your siblings, which is admirable, but you're already sort of leaving them, because medicine cats and their apprentices sleep in the medicine cat den... I get what you mean, though. You don't want to leave them yet.

Tankit: "Yeah, that's what I meant."
Sugarkit: "Thanks, Tankit! That really means alot to us! Right, Rainkit?"
Rainkit: "Yeah, what she said. Hey, you want to go and talk with Windpelt?"
Tankit: "Sure, he always plays with us!"

"Oh, I can't wait any longer! I'm going to find my mate, and no cat is going to stop me!" She walked to the nursery and told her kits good-bye. "But what are you saying good-bye for?" wailed Sugarkit. "Oh, my little one. Ask Windpelt. But, I'll be back. Wait for me when the moon is full 5 times." She told Beachstar that she was leaving at dawn, and went to rest in the nursery. When dawn came, she took a piece of fresh-kill, put it in Beachstar's den, and left to begin her journey. "Now, where to start is the Big Question." She decided to go in the way she and Windpelt came, to the old badger set. (I'll post the journey, okay!)

Swan:Ok, Lilypaw and Tankit, here is your first lesson
Summer: Yes, first we will teach you the basic herbs for infection and bleeding
Swan: Marigold and horse-tail is good for infections, as well as dried oak leaf. For bleeding, you are better off with cob-webs, although yarrow can stop bleeding if used correctly.
Summer: Make sure you put the herb underneath the cobwebs if you are trying to prevent infection while stopping bleeding. Otherwise, if you put the herb on top, it will rub off and the cobweb will prevent it from doing what it is supposed to do.

I had no idea that yarrow could be used to stop bleeding! I'll have to remember that...
Burdock root poultices can also cure infection, right? And so can honey, I think. But burdock works best on rat bites, and doesn't do nearly as much good for other wounds, and honey is difficult to collect without getting stung, so they aren't used often...

Sugarflight! WAIT! We still need your help with the mongoose! Please stay! *kills 5 other mongoose and looses 2 lives*

"Ow!" She yowled as she crawled under a two-leg fence. "Fox-dung!" Sugarflight remarked as she looked at the bunches of fur she left on the fence. "Oh well, at least I got under it."
She walked around the edge of Twolegplace until she came across a Thunderpath. She sat there, waiting, the wind buffeting her fur as monsters swept past. She wrenched her nose at the vile smell. "I'd rather eat mouse bile for a moon than smell this!" she exclaimed. When all seemed calm, she dashed across. When she was half-way across, she heard the roar of a monster. Sugarflight ran even harder, like a whole pack of dogs was after her. But it wasn't fast enough. The monster caught up with her, and ran over her tail. She shrieked in pain, dashed across, and flopped down on the other side. Blood oozed out of her tail, and she felt sick looking at it. "Okay, what would Swanflight do? Oh, yeah! Cobwebs!" She soon found some cobwebs and applied them to her tail. "And what is for infection? MARIGOLD!" She chewed up some marigold and laid it gently on her wound. "Hey, I know this place... This is the Twolegplace where we found that fox! We must be close to the old badger set!" Then, she heard a rustle in the leaves. "Who's there? I'm a warrior, you know!" "Uh, okay then. Please don't hurt me!!" A kittypet stepped out of the bushes. "I'm Squirt. Who are you?" "I'm Sugarflight, from LavaClan." "Oh, you're one of those cats who eat bones and kill for fun, right?" "Oh no! We don't eat bones, and definitely don't kill for fun! That would destroy the Warrior Code! Anyways, I'm looking for someone. Do you know any cat named Stonewalker?" she asked him. "No, but come with me and my friends might." They walked into Twolegplace, and Sugarflight explained to him the way of the Clans, and why she was looking for someone. Squirt walked into an abandoned Two-leg nest and motioned for Sugarflight to follow. "Hey, everybody!" Squirt called out. "This cat here is looking for a tom named, uh, what was it again?" "Stonewalker." she answered. "No, I haven't." "Never heard of him." "Strange name, but never heard it before." Answers started coming at her as cats walked out from hiding and into the open. "Let me introduce you to everybody." Squirt said. " The queen with kits is Pinky" he flicked his tail towards a white she-cat. "Over there is her mate, Black. The tiny she-cat is Small." He indicated a strong black tom and a tiny she-cat, about the size of an apprentice. "I've heard of a Stonewalker." An old tortoiseshell tom walked out from behind a big fluffy two-leg thing. "This is Horse. He's the oldest one here." "You've seen my mate?" " Yeah, a tom named Stonewalker walked over here, looking for Windpelt and Sugarflight." "My name is Sugarflight! And my father's name is Windpelt!! Where did he go after you met him?" "He went to the Twolegplace over there." He flicked his tail towards the east, and disappeared into the shadows. "Thank you all so much! I have to go right away!!" "No, you have to stay here. We need to tell you about the dogs. And you need your rest. Have some prey." "I can't thank you enough!" The next day, Sugarflight left the den to get some prey, found a thrush and two mice, put them in their den, and set off on her journey to the other Twolegplace. ~~~ to be continued ~~~

"Okay, so you put herbs under cobweb, and that's used to stop the bleeding. Marigold is for infection." She tried to demonstrate it by getting a leaf, pretending to put a poultice of marigold on it and putting pretend cobwebs on it. "Was that how you do it, Summerberry?"
(April 17, 2010 - 1:46 pm)
That's exactly how you do it, Tankit! Good!"
(April 18, 2010 - 12:12 am)
Beachstar! Are you okay? I know a medicine cat in another Clan who knows some warriors in other Clans who can come here and help fight the mongoose, if necessary. Would you like me to get them to come here?

Sugarflight walked on a two-leg fence on the outskirts of Twolegplace. "I wonder where he could be?" she mumbled. "HISSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!" she heard out of no where. "Who was that? Where are you??" A strong, tough looking cat jumped onto the fence and lunged at Sugarflight. She jumped off the fence and twisted around to jump on the cat. It bit her tail, but she clawed at her flank. "Okay, okay, I surrender!! Just stop hurting me!!" "Okay, but why did you attack me?" "You were in my territory!" "Well, I'll get out of it, you could've just told me!" "I know, I kn- hey, you look familiar! Hey, Black Top, I think that there's somewhere here who you need to meet!" A sturdy black gray tom came out and began to stare at Sugarflight. "Stonewalker? Is that you?" "Uh, no. My name is Black Top."
(April 18, 2010 - 11:21 am)
"Stonewalker, I'm sure that that's you! I'm Sugarflight, your old mate! My father's name is Windpelt, you helped us attack that fox, remember? You have to remember! Please!" she wailed like a helpless kit at her old mate. "Actually, this kinda rings a bell. Yeah, I remember now! Sugarflight, I'm Stonewalker!!" "Oh, good! Will you please come back home with me, to LavaClan? I'll teach you all about the ways of the Clans, please say you'll come, PLEASE!!!" "Alright, I come. Goodbye, you've been a good friend. I'll miss you." He sad to ??. "I'll miss you too, bud." he answered. "Okay, let's get a move on, alright?" Sugarflight urged the toms, and Stonewalker followed them out of the old two-leg den. ~~~~ At the old fox den ~~~~~ "Okay, LavaClan shouldn't be very far away now!" They soon go to the thunderpath, and they readied to pass. Some grit got in their ears, but they had enough trust in their noses to be safe. "GO!!!" Sugarflight yowled. They shot across the thunderpath, but a smaller, louder monster came from behind the corner. They froze in panic, and the monster ran them over. "AHHHHHHH!!!!!" they yowled. But they were dead in a couple of heartbeats. That night, Sugarflight came to Swanflight in a dream. "I want you to tell Autumnstar, Windpelt, Tanpaw, Sugarkit, and Rainkit, that I have found my mate, but we died on the Thunderpath."
(April 20, 2010 - 10:45 pm)
(Um, why are you calling Beachstar Autumnstar? Are you confused with Autumnstar of CrystalClan?)
"Oh, Sugarflight!! I can't believe you're dead!" the medicine cat cried. "I'll tell the Clan, I guess." She awoke, and went over to Beachstar. "Sugarflight is dead. Tell Windpelt too," she said in anguish. She then went over to the kits. "I have to tell you something, Sugarkit, Rainkit, and Tanpaw. Sugarflight is gone now." She took a deep breath and gazed at the kits with deep green eyes, wondering how they would react.
(April 23, 2010 - 6:58 pm)
"Windpelt, do you think that Sugarflight will be back soon?" Tanpaw, Rainkit, and Sugarkit padded into the elders den. "I don't know, Tanpaw. She said to wait for her when to moon is full 5 times. This is the 7 moon since she left. I don't know where she is, or whether or not she has found Stonewalker." Sugarkit and Rainkit walked over to Autumnstar. "Autumnstar, when can we be apprentices? Tanpaw's already an apprentice, and we want to be one too!" Tanpaw walked to Summerberry, "What are we going to learn now?" She asked.
(April 23, 2010 - 3:17 pm)
(Sorry, I was getting confused!!)
"Oh, dear!! My daughter!!" Windpelt yowled. "This can't be true! You're kidding, right? Sugarflight will jump into the clearing any second now, I know she will! Sugarflight, Sugarflight, where are you?" Windpelt sobbed and fell to the ground. "Windpelt!!" Tanpaw yowled, "What can I give you for shock? Summerberry, would poppy seeds work?" "Our mother, is, dead?!?!" Rainkit and Sugarkit were still staring in shock at Swanflight, "Where is she, where did she die? I want to see her." Rainkit tried to keep hi voice steady, but you could tell that he wanted to yowl to StarClan, to his mother, to his father that he never knew. "I-I'm going out to the forest." Sugarkit mewed. Cats tried to tell her that she was still a kit, but they decided not to because she was apprentices age. Sugarkit raced out of the clearing and ran as far and fast as she could, hoping somehow she would die and join her mother.
