In a distant land, 2 clans of cats live; Houndclan and Doeclan. These clans are interdependent, and are closely knit. However, when love comes crashing down, it could take the clans with it. Will they overcome this and restore their bond, or divide forever and risk death?

As the sun set against the distant wetlands of Doeclan, Houndclan felt their dryer area grow cold. Not that the area was filled with a warm atmosphere to begin with. Not just talking about the temperature, but the mood of camp.

Cats had gathered around in a circle, mutterings of a morbid curiosity and the sorrow of loved ones echoed through the camp. One who stood in the back was Cloverpetal. He'd never known Misteyes personally, but he knew that they were a beloved medicine cat. A beloved medicine cat who was now dead.

Nobody knows how it happened, but as the sun rose, Misteyes had fallen dead in his own den. No wounds, no blood, no illness before this point. One moment there, the next gone.

Cloverpetal looked around and eventually spied out his sister. Quietly, he talked over. "Hey, Prickleshade."
Prickleshade's eyes met Cloverpetal. "Shh, Hailstar is about to speak."
Cloverpetal's head perked up in surprise, realizing the leader had sat by the body. He took his place next to his sister and listened to Hailstar's words.

“Houndclan, hear my words!” Hailstar’s voice echoed in the now silent clearing, his voice somber as he spoke next, “Mistyeyes has done us a great service.. she has fulfilled her duty as medicine cat for many a moon, but now, it seems our time together has been cut short.” The patriarch dug his claws into the earth below him, closing his eyes for a split moment to gather himself.

“No wounds, no blood, no illness, and no evidence, but rest assured, whoever did this- if anyone- will be punished to the fullest extent for this treason against our clan and murder of our beloved medicine cat!” Hailstar’s voice was now laced with venom, and all sorts of ideas were flowing through his head.
“Mistyeyes left behind no apprentice to take her place- and as much as I’m against this, I’ve sent word to Bearstar. Until a kit is old enough to fully learn the medicinal craft, we will seek aid from Doeclan. In the time being, I expect you all to remain respectful towards their medicine cat while he resides within our camp.”

“Clan dismissed.” Without answering any other questions, Hailstar leapt down from his place on the ledge, retreating into his den.

Meanwhile, a messenger was racing towards Doeclan’s camp to speak news of their medicine cat’s death.

Cloverpetal tilted his head. "We're getting a Doeclan medicine cat?" Prickleshade nodded. "That *is* what he said."

The two found Sweetpaw approaching Prickleshade. "Does that mean that Halfkit will be training as a medicine cat?" Prickleshade frowned. "I guess so."
Sweetpaw gave a glance over to Robinpuddle, who was sharing tongues with Newtjay and his new kit, Halfkit.

Cloverpetal sighed. "I'm sorry about Robinpuddle." He gave his sister a lick on the ear. Prickleshade just shook her head. "I'll be fine."

Bearstar was out having a drink at the Lavender Lake. The evening had been peaceful for Doeclan, and the water was nice and cold for a good drink. His bushy tail swayed, then came to a halt as he heard frequent pawsteps. He got up from his crouch and turned around. A Houndclan warrior? It seemed urgent. "Hello? What is it?"

The messenger explained *everything* in detail after they had caught their breath from the long run. How Mistyeyes had died mysteriously, and how Doeclan was in dire need of help, especially now that the cold seasons were coming.

“Mistyeyes didn’t have train an apprentice, and we didn’t anticipate her death to be so soon..” They murmured, “Hailstar asked for me to request your medicine cat- just until he can train up a new one for us. We won’t make it through the cold seasons without one.”

Bearstar perked his head up, then he nodded. "Sablewish's apprentice should be able to handle themselves alone here, I'll send out Sablewish at dawn. Tell Hailstar to have one of his warriors ready to receive him."

The messenger gave Bearstar a curt nod, turning away with a whisk of their tail. They made the same journey once more, repeating Bearstar’s words to their own leader before setting off to do…. Something

Bearstar rushed back to the clan's camp. He crossed the wide lake that guarded their camp and stepped into the tall grass. Eventually he found the tall grass dying off, and he could hear the business of the camp. The camp was a clear area in the middle of the tall grass area, and was generally wet beneath the paws. He leapt up to a big boulder in the middle of camp.

"All those old enough to cross the guarding river unwatched gather in the clearing for a clan meeting!" His voice called out loudly.

Sablewish’s ears pricked, and his head suddenly snapped up from his work as he heard the voice of their leader. He glanced over at Crowpaw, who was helping him organize their herb storage and check if they needed anything for the upcoming cold season. Upon hearing the call, the apprentice’s head shot over to look at the older tom, and a small smile grew on his maw. “C’mon, we need to see what that’s about.” He spoke softly, giving his ruffled fur a few licks to smooth it down.

Gradually, the two made their way out to the clearing, sitting up near the front and waiting while more of their clan gathered. Eventually, after a few moments, everyone sat around the boulder in wait of Bearstar’s announcement. The clearing was filled with hushed whispers, all of them wondering what they were gathered for.

Crowpaw tilted her head. "I wonder what's going on."

Bearstar's eys fell on Sablewish and Crowpaw. "Houndclan has reported the death of their medicine cat. Hailstar has asked for our help. Sablewish, your apprentice has learned enough from you to sustain the clan. They ask for you to go over there until you've taught a kit to be their next medicine cat."

Sablewish blinked hard up at his leader, a sudden feeling of dread filling his stomach. He had to stay with complete strangers? Well, sure, there was a gathering every full moon, but he tended to avoid any interactions with cats in Houndclan.. and now he was really regretting that decision. All sorts of worries flooded his head, and he could hardly utter a word. He was hardly ready for the cold season- let alone doing it all by *himself* in a completely unfamiliar territory. But it’s not like he could say anything against it. Instead, the skinny tom nodded his head quickly, trying to look confident but failing miserably at it. He looked over at Crowpaw, wondering if she would really be able to manage on her own..

Crowpaw had been staring at her mentor, not seeming worried for herself. "You'll be okay, right?"

Bearstar seemed to have noticed as well. "It's that or Crowpaw goes, but out of the both of you they need the best cat to teach an apprentice."

Sablewish shook out his fur, recentering his focus hastily. *Of course* Crowpaw would be fine- she was nearly a fully fledged medicine cat, and she had trained her well- right? Plus, he would worry far more if his apprentice had to go off on her own to strange lands. “Nono, it’s fine, I’ll go!” He yelped quickly, trying to assure himself at the same time. It would be fine.. it’s not like he would be in a nest of rogues. “When do I leave?”

"I've told them to send a warrior to the border at dawn to receive you. You'll go then." Bearstar nodded to him. "I wish you luck, we will miss you while you're gone. Clan dismissed." He leapt down

Crowpaw nuzzled her mentor. "I'll miss you, especially."

Sablewish purred nervously, rubbing his head against Crowpaw’s. “I’ll be back before you know it- are you sure you’ll be fine on your own?”

Crowpaw nodded. "I'm with my clan and I have all I need to know." She smiled. "Good luck."
