"Although you've already been here as a kit, I suppose we should still go over the best spots to collect herbs!" Amberleaf purred.

The medicine cat went on to explain each patch of herbs and the best way to harvest each herb. Moonpaw listened with intense interest, taking in every detail.

But just as Amberleaf was going to talk about catnip, a strange leaf caught Moonpaw's eye.

It was an ivy leaf, but it was an odd crimson red. When Moonpaw bent down to look at it, she gasped. The ivy leaf was covered in a thick layer of blood.

As the metallic scent hit her throat, Moonpaw was swept away in visions.

She saw Nightshine, running. Then, she saw Blizzardstar. Finally, everything went black, but she could tell the scent of blood was getting stronger.

She felt blood underneath her paws, thick and sticky, and she screamed in horror.

"Moonpaw! Moonpaw!"

Moonpaw opened her eyes, and saw Amberleaf standing over her.

"Are you alright? You were screaming so much."

Moonpaw sat there for a few moments, stunned, than stuttered "The-the ivy leaf..."

Amberleaf turned her gaze to the leaf laying at Moonpaw's side, then slowly drew her claw across it. After a few heartbeats, she turned to Moonpaw.

"Don't worry, no cat was killed here. The blood most likely came from a fox." Amberleaf said, "I'll take it back to camp. It seems like a sign from Starclan."

"How did you tell it wasn't cat blood?" Moonpaw asked.

Amberleaf's eyes darkened, "I'm far too familiar with the texture."

And before Moonpaw could ask any more, Amberleaf swiftly trotted back to camp, leaving her apprentice to scramble after her.
