Streampaw looked around the den in amazement, since it was her first time in the medicine cats den. The apprentice looked at her injured leg, seeing that it was okay. 'I might be in here for a couple of days maybe moons,' thought Streampaw.

Shinefang lowered himself to the floor of the medicine den, just beside an empty nest. "Off you go now, nice and easy," he said, letting the apprentice know that she should get settled. As she was climbing off of him, he mentally walked through the steps of how to treat her leg. He would have to set it first, he knew. He'd seen cats get treated for broken limbs before. He knew that part would hurt. A lot.
Just then, he saw another tom walking in and cursed under his breath. "Mousedung, another patient," he griped. And to think, whne he left his life as a warrior, he thought being a medicine cat would be
less work. Then the tome entered and he got a more clear look. It was Coldwind. Steampaw's father.
Double mousedung! A parent. Even worse! He could practically hear the whining already.
Help my daughter, Shinefang! She's hurting Shinefang! Are you sure you should be doing this and that, Shinefang? As if he weren't already in a bad mood. "She broke it. My first clue was that legs don't generally bend that way," Shinefang said, answering the father's question before the daughter could. With the apprentice off of him, he went to the corner of the den where he kept sticks, recently stripped of bark, courtesy of Gorsepaw. He grabbed three in his teeth, and padded over to lay them next to the apprentice. "I'm going to have to reset her leg. It's going to be painful but it has to be done if she ever wants to use that leg again," he said bluntly to both cats before disappearing again to his herb wall to grab a packet of poppy seeds.
