Risingdawn raced the herb piles, her mind racing is it already too late? she asked herself. no! I have to try to help even if the worst has happend! she measured out the correct of yarrow, hoping to make the tom throw up. She brought it to her mentor and lay it at his feet, willing him to preform the task if his judgement told him it was too late or not.

" Okay Smokeypaw, i want you to chew these yarrow leaves they'll make you throw-up but it'll get the poisen out of you." He turned to his apprentice and mewed," Fetch a dock leaf, i don't want him vomiting all over his nest that he has to sleep in." He turned back to the apprentice and carried the yarrow over to him. He kneeled down and mwed," Those berries you ate are called Deathberries, three can kill the strongest warrior! How many did you eat?" His voice was calm but his head was spinning with thoughts of the apprentice eating the berries and him not being able to cure him... then Snokeypaw dying.

Risingdawn dashed over to the pile and chose the biggest dock leaf she could find and brought it over to Jaguargaze. She positioned the leaf so that if the young cat had to vomit it would end up on the leaf and nowhere's else. Her green eyes where wide with worry as she padded over to the herb pile, trying to keep herself busy until she was needed.

Fading in and out of this word to the next as the medicine cats wondered how many he ate."I-I only nibbled.... some of them..." Wheezing out the words in a gritty way of course. Then taking deep breaths as if he were drowning underwater"Alright...I-I ate six of them....!" Twisting and twitching wildly as bubbly foam started to come out of his mouth as he gobbled up the yarrow leaves. Then turning on his side and letting it all go. Now shaking as he kept vomiting over and over. Till lying on his side not moving at least an inch before gazing up at he sky while his mouth seemed very broken and cracked."Jaguargaze.....I-I can't see!!" moaned as if he felt his throat being ripped up.

Jaguargaze stared at the apprentice in horrer, he had never seen Deathberries do something so horrible to a young cat," I need mroe yarrow!" He growled.

Risingdawn was already by the medicine cat's side, the whole pile of yarrow beside her. She passed him another measured bundle, racing away to look for stining nettle seeds to use to help expel the berries. "Try this " she mewed, knowing that yarrow was occasionaly used for this, but stining nettle was most commenly used for internal poisons.

Eating the yarrow leaves, but Smokeypaw only gagged and threw back up while that stricken moan followed."What...what are you saying!!" Coughing as his words seemed to be chopped up into pieces after they left his mouth.

Risingdawn licked the apprentice's head swiftly, trying to comfort him "It'll make you feel better" she soothed, making referance to the stinging nettle seeds. "They aren't any diffrent from the yarrow, they are simply more affective is all." she whispered with a smile "We wouldn't give you anything if we didn't think it would help you"

Everything was blurry in his vision and there was a deep ringing in his ears."I-I wanna go home.....I-I want to g-go home.... m-mo....mom....mommy!" Whispering the words in a hushed voice till the last word in a shriek, everything was fading in and out till at least his eyes closed while his head went down. Unmoving, cold and quiet. The apprentices shaking and wheezing eventually drifted away into darkness. His flanks settled down to utter calmness with no responsive manner.

Risingdawn gasped, looking at Jaguargaze for guidance. "Is he dead?" she whispered, shocked and grief stricken, not wanting to discover the truth herself. had they been too late to save him? Her green eyes dulled as she shivered, dreading the news.

Jaguargaze nodded and stood," I must go tell Icestar..." He padded out of the den, his fur pulsing with grief.

Risingdawn lay her head on her paws, her heart aching with grief. She felt her heart shattered as she looked at the broken body of the apprentice she'd not been able to save. She curled herself into a tight ball, shivering at the thoughts that filled her mind.

Jaguargaze padded back in, his eyes clouded and his ers laid flat on his head. He licked Risingdawn's nose softly.
