Shadowheart took a step away from her once again, his ears going flat against his head as she practically pleading with him to come with her. He avoided her nudge, uncertain of why this she-cat was attempting to provide such help. Was this some trick? Was she trying to find something about Shadowclan? Was she just being a decent cat? All these thoughts circled around his head.
"No, I c-can't! I can't leave, I just...I n-need to find some herbs, and then I'll...I'll be fine. I'm sorry, I...I didn't mean to bother you, just..." He took another step back, beginning to turn away from the she-cat.

That was when Rainfeather bit down on his scruff. "No!" She said through the fur, "Do you even know anything about herbs?" She was tiny but strong and continued to pull. Surely Leafeyes would take care of Shadowheart, even though he's from ShadowClan. She knew the medicine cat, Leafeyes wouldn't leave him to continue bleeding.

Shadowheart let out a cry of alarm as he suddenly felt teeth sink (lightly) into his scruff and the strong pull of the other warrior. He tried fighting against her pull, but he was still a small warrior, and he wasn't assisted by his currently malnourished form, having little muscle and little fat to give him strength enough to resist.
Once he realized he wasn't going to be able to break free of her, he let out a cry of distress and began begging the cat. "P=please don't do this! If I come back, and i have another clan's scent, I'll...I'm going to be..." he gulped, not completing his sentence before trailing off; but certainly, his head was full of potential punishments. "Please, stop! Just...I know I need cobwebs, I'll get them on my own!"

Rainfeather's eyes narrowed, stressed about the whole situation. "If the punishment is so bad, why not just stay with me?" She muttered. "It'll get infected!" She said to him, a scold in her tone, louder this time. "Besides, you can just roll around in some plants and get RiverClan scent off of you." She told him. "Your health is more important. Who even did this to you? And why?" They were nearing the camp now.

Shadowheart tensed as she suddenly asked who had given him these wounds and why they had done this. He coould not answer that question; he risked his clan's anger if he went tattling to another cat, let alone another whole clan of cats.
He said nothing, trying to resist more as they drew close to the camp. Yet, it was futile, and he soon found himself being dragged into the camp.

Rainfeather held back a sigh when Shadowheart would not answer. She dragged him into the medicine den, startling Leafeyes out of her sleep. "Shh!" She told her quickly. Rainfeather explained as fast as she could in a low voice what had happened, or at least what she knew. The medicine cat seemed slightly hesitant, but went to get herbs from her supply.

Shadowheart anxiously turned about, trying to orient himself in this strange new place he didn't recognize. He tried scrambling away as he was finally set down in the den of the medicine cat. He knew he wouldn't be able to get out of here if the whole clan was awake, so he needed to get out now. He wished the she-cat could have just let him go; it would be really hard to explain his absence if he was detained.
Yet, he found as he hurried out of the den that cats were already awakening, and some cats bristled with hostility as they recognized the foreign Shadowclan scent. He realized he wasn't getting out of here.

Rainfeather stood towards the entrance of the medicine cat den, making sure no one could see in, come in, or go out. Luckily, the entrance was small enough for her to do so. She watched as Leafeyes inspected Shadowheart's wound and put some herbs on it. What they were called she did not know.

Shadowheart grimaced, hissed and whined as his deep, still-bleeding wounds were patched by the medicine cat. Certainly, the cat had skill with herbs, but nothing could stop his chest from stinging heavily; he tried crawling away, not wanting to be touched any longer byh the medicine cat, hoping his wounds would simply be left alone.

Rainfeather quickly made sure to block out Shadowheart. "Shadowheart, please! Just.... give it a rest, ok?" At first, the small she-cat was insistent. But when she made it to her second question, she had a more pleading tone to her voice. Leafeyes got a few black seeds and laid them near Shadowheart. "Eat these." She instructed, deciding not to tell the tom the poppy seeds would make him sleep.

Shadowheart flinched as the she-cat pleaded with him to give this protest a rest; he gazed towards her for several long moments, trying to detect some sort of ulterior motive or reason she might be asking him to give up on his resistance. Yet, within her eyes and her voice, he could detect only genuine concern.
He glanced at the medicine cat, then at the herbs. He recognized these; his father had given him many of these throughout his kithood and early apprenticeship. He had to use them sometimes in order to sleep, but he always had to sneak into the medicine cat's den to eat them.
"Why? I don't need to sleep." He quietly protested, though he wasn't trying to escape the den anymore.

Rainfeather didn't look away when Shadowheart stared at her, meeting his gaze the whole time. She let out a sigh of relief when he relinquished his protesting. She watched, slightly on edge, as Leafeyes tried to give him poppy seeds and he asked why.
Leafeyes replied easily, "Because I'm a trained medicine cat who doesn't care what Clan you're from and wants to help. Now, eat."

Shadowheart did not trust what this cat wanted from him at all; it was extremely nervewracking to the young warrior to have another cat ordering him to eat seeds which would put him to sleep. Who knew what the cats would do with him while he was knocked out?
"N-no..." he took a step back. "I'm not eating that..." He gulped, glancing around him nervously. Great Starclan, he didn't want to be here.
