"No, I'll be fine," Ferntail meowed, speeding up to quickly catch up with her mentor. Sh sighed. Why did everything have to be so complicated?

Nodding, Icetail said, "I'll try to keep us off the path most usually take. That was if we do run into anybody, you won't have the chance of running into someone you don't want to."

"No, it's fine," Ferntail protested against her mentor's special treatment. "It would be strange if we did things that we normally didn't."

Shrugging, the silvery white she-cat said, "All right, if you say. But it wouldn't be that strange, I go in all directions when I'm out for herbs."

Ferntail just followed her mentor with a small sigh. Oh, if only she could go see Flashfoot right now. if only she could go talk to her. "Icetail, I have a belly ache," Ferntail mewed truthfully. It wasn't terribly hurting, but it hurt. Perhaps she should go back and chew on a herb or something. "I think I'll head back to camp and get something from our den to make the bellyache go away. And don't worry, I'll find my way back," she said, heading back to camp.
But before she got back to camp, a familliar scent wafted into her nose. Ah, someone who she really wanted to see. She totally forgot that she was going back to camp, and instead went to the border. She could see a familliar whiteish grayish shape. She mewed hopefully, forgeting her pain for once. Then a sharp wave of pain reminded her about her pain. Oh well, she could bear with it until she got back to camp.
"Ferntail!" Flashfoot said happily, running over on his tall legs. He sat beside her, towering over her. Ferntail only came up to about his shoulder. He licked her affectionately on the ears as she purred contently. "So the kits are coming soon?" He asked softly, curling his long tail around them both. If anyone looked witha quick glance, the tall tom could have been mistaken for the young SunClan leader, Lightningstar.
"They'll be coming soon, if they come at the expected time," Ferntail mewed, her mew a bit forced. Her bellyache felt if it was much more than a simple everyday bellyache.
"Are you okay?" Flashfoot asked, voice full of comcern. "Maybe you should go back to your Clan if you aren't felling well." He resumed licking her, as she said, "No-I'm fine."

Her mentor can come and find poor Ferntail mingling with the tall kitty.

Icetail stood behind some bushes, watching her apprentice and another cat. It looked like... yes, that's who it was. It appeared to be Flashfoot, from SolarClan. Hmm, that must be the father... She didn't know whether to interrupt or not. Though it would probably be better; if a warrior, or even worse, if Lightningstar, saw the two together, that might be trouble. Sighing, Icetail called out, "Ferntail, you might want to watch yourself. You're out where anyone can see you with him."

Flashfoot hissed in surprise, and his neck fur stood up, as he turned to see Icetail. His hackles were raised as he instinctively unsheathed his claws.
"No!" Ferntail said, stumbling towards Icetail. "This isn't what-well, it is, but..." She fumbled with her words as she fumbled with her footing as the pain continued to race through her body. She tripped over a loose root, and fell. She did not get up, but stayed down, breathing heavily. Her eyes were tightly shut as she let out a small mewl of pain.
Flashfoot started forward, but a cat had leaped at him, snarling. "Why are you here, and what did you do?" Lightningstar asked, claws unsheathed, and digging to the other cats fur. For one second he faltered, the cat had reminded him of someone, but he did not know. But only for a second. "Why have you trespassed on our territory?" Most of the Clan knew LightningStar had a air of protectiveness around Ferntail, but only as a older brother, or father, as her's had passed away shortly after she had been born.
"Nooo..." Ferntail mewed, almost forcing the word out as she layed on her side.

Icetail quickly hurried to her apprentice's side, licking her flank. Looking up to Lightningstar and Flashfoot for a moment, she said, "He didn't mean to trespass here. Flashfoot must have noticed Ferntail out here by herself, and he noticed she doesn't look too well. If you didn't notice, he isn't too far away from SolarClan border." Hoping he would believe her, the silvery white she-cat looked at Ferntail. "What's wrong?" she asked.

Lightningstar hissed in annoyance, and stepped off of Flashfoot. "If I find you trespassing again, you won't leave unscathed, mark my words," Lightningstar hissed, as Flashfoot dipped his head, and walked back to SolarClan territory, thankful to leave without a scratch or something that would have attracted the attention of his fellow clanmates.
Lightningstar turned, to Ferntail, a worried expression on his face. "Ferntail, he didn't do anything to you, did he?"
Ferntail muttered a few words for Icetail's ears only. Only a few were recognizable. "Hurts... Kits... Belly... Flashfoot... Where... Nooo... Lightningstar... trouble... Hurts so much..." Most of the words didn't even make sense. It seemed that the kits were coming, only they were coming too soon.

Icetail tensed slightly, looking at LIghtningstar. "She's fine, just still not completely well I'd assume. I can take care of it, you can go back to camp." Getting lower to Ferntail, she muttered, "Once he leaves, try your best to move. You need to get to somewhere sheltered, we're too far from camp."

Lightningstar nodded, having complete trust in the young medicine cat. He turned, and headed back to camp.
Ferntail twitched, but didn't move. "I can't," She said in a tiny desperate mew. "It hurts... so bad..." Ferntail knew that it was not normal for Queens to have such intense pain while kitting, but there were cases. She didn't know what to do.

Sighing, Icetail looked around. Hmm, she'd have to try and get her somewhere. "I guess I'll have to try and get you over to that bush. At least there will be some shelter." Hmm, this could be difficult, especially with her size not too much different than her apprentice. Either way, Icetail grabbed Ferntail's scruff and tried to pull her.

Ferntail felt herself be slowly dragged to the bush. She tried to help in the effort, but her effort was in vain as she didn't help at all. Every movement she made had hurt.

Once under, Icetail looked around. "I need to find you something... some poppyseed or something, for the pain." she muttered. "But I don't know if there's any around here." Stepping out a bit, the young she-cat searched around the various plants; there had to be something here.
Finally she managed to find something. Pulling back a bush, she found some catnip; it was a small batch, but still something. As she carried it back over to where Ferntail was, she dropped it next to her. "Here, eat this. It may not help much, but it's something at least."
