"Okay..." Dawnpaw replied hesitantly. Sagenose padded forward, and draped his tail over Dawnpaw. She stood.

~•~

"Dawnpaw, this is a serious topic. I want you to understand that. Do you?" Sagenose asked as they arrived at their destination. A small stretch of land with a stream running through it. Dawnpaw nodded. Mintstar sat down and curled her tail over her paws.

"Very well. Before you answer, you must think long and hard about the offer." Sagenose began. Dawnpaw sat down also. Sagenose was the only one left standing. He didn't sit.

"Okay." Dawnpaw sniffed.

"Mintstar and I were talking. I think it's in your best interest to become a medicine cat. I am in no way pushing you to become one, you can reject the offer if you wish." Sagenose spilled out. Dawnpaw leaped back in shock.

"Never!" She screeched. Mintstar dipped her head.

"There is your answer, Sagenose. Let's go." Mintstar stood, and glared at Sagenose. Sagenose shook his head.

"Dawnpaw, you must think about it. You have been in my den every day since training began. You haven't leaned as much as Badgerpaw, yet he is younger than you." Sagenose sighed. Mintstar lashed her tail.

"She said no." Mintstar snapped. Dawnpaw hesitated.

"Wait..." Dawnpaw began. "I haven't been getting enough training because I've been hurt so much. That isn't my fault. It's Darkfire who is to blame! But, if I am just using precious herbs, I want to Use them on others. I accept the offer, at least for a little while anyways."

"Dawnpaw..." Mintstar rushed forward. "You will be giving up everything. Not just practice. Everything...including Goldenpaw."

Dawnpaw froze. She quickly regained posture.

"I said Yes, for a while anyways." Dawnpaw stuck to her agreement. She would try, and if she failed, so be it.
