Poisonleaf warily entered the two-leg's garden. She opened her mouth and scented the air; nothing was there except her and Sharkfang. She padded over to a juniper bush and pointed it out to the tom. "This is juniper. The berries help with bellyaches and stuff. Gather as many of them as you can. I'm going to get some catmint over there."

Sharkfang agreed and padded to the bush. He delicately pulled the juniper berries off the branches with his claws and gathered them into a leaf. "Is this enough, Poisonleaf?" The grey warrior brought them over and set them on the ground beside her.

Poisonleaf looked up from biting off catmint leaves. "Yes, that should be enough." She picked up what she had and sat it on the large dock leaf that Sharkfang had. "Hmm... What next? Burdock! I know that there's a few plants here." She opened her mouth and scented the plants immeadiatly. She padded over to a weedy corner and starting digging at the roots of the plants. "Sharkfang, you can gather some more dock leaves, just get smaller ones, so they're easier to carry."

Sharkfang cringed at the smell of the dock, but he continued his work carefully pulling off the leaves one by one. He looked towards Poisonleaf and saw a small object beside her. In curiosity, he set down the leaves and slowly moved foreward until he could touch it with a paw. The object was cool and the moon glinted in its reflection. A long silver chain was connected to the amulet, he unsheathed a claw to pull it towards him. A two-leg object undoubtedly, he thought to himself as he lifted the chain onto his neck and let it fall to his chest. Without a word of his finding to Poisonleaf, he padded back over to his leaf pile and continued.

Poisonleaf padded over to the large dock leaf and dropped a couple of large burdock roots on it. "How's the gathering going?" she mewed to Sharkfang, looking around for something else that'd be useful. Poppy! She padded over to a patch of the large plants and started biting off the heads. We'll need lot's of this she thought. She bit off all the heads she could find and gathered them up in her mouth, making her look like she had a shaggy black mane, kinda like a lions. She got Sharkfang's attention, then looked at the leaf, and flicked her tail, meaning, 'Grab the herbs and let's go back to camp.'

The withered grey warrior gathered his collection of herbs and followed Poisonleaf out of the garden. His new amulet swung at his neck glinting in the setting moonlight. They were on their last few days of this terrible place and soon he'd be able to cool his lacerated paws on the tall grass of the new homeland yet to be discovered. Sharkfang blinked with delight and he held his tail high as he caught up with the Medicine Cat.

Poisonleaf dropped the herbs in the camp entrance, then trotted back to the herb garden, "We've got to get some lavender and feverfew and horsetail, and maybe some more poppy if we can find some." she meowed to Sharkfang as she passed him, "Just leave those in the entrance."

Sharkfang dropped the herbs next to the cement column that marked the entrance to their dismal camp and followed Poisonleaf back to the garden. "Will Shiningstream's kit be alright?" His voice was stressed and he was nervous to see them so weak, especially before their long journey ahead.

"Oh, they should." meowed Poisonleaf confidently. "Those herbs I gave them earlier should make them look better" She started looking around the garden again, looking for feverfew or lavender.

Sharkfang sighed with relief and continued scenting for useful herbs.

Poisonleaf smelt the small purple flowered plant and began biting it off. She pointed it out to Sharkfang, "This is lavender. It'll help to cure fever."

"Good. I'll gather more poppy," he said motioning to a large drowth of lovely red flowers. He padded over to the flowerbeds and began to pluck a few pods of seeds from the shoots.

"We can never have enough of poppy seeds." meowed Poisonleaf cheerily. She padded over to the dock plants and plucked a large one, then dragged it over beside Sharkfang, 'Here, put them on this, then we can drag it." Poisonleaf picked up her lavender and dropped it on the leaf and went sniffing around for feverfew.

Gently, Sharkfang dropped the two types of herbs on the broad leaves. This was going very well, but he was starting to get dizzy from all the strong scented herbs. "Poisonleaf? How much longer will this take?" He wavered for a moment and shook his head.

"Not much. I just need some feverfew and horsetail." Meowed Poisonleaf kindly, "You can sit over in that corner, there's not that many plants there. You'll breathe better."
