He then flew through the air landing in a well-practiced crouch with a wad of something in his mouth. "Come on, get your tail back inside you'll catch a cold, mouse brain!" he mumbled through the thing in his mouth. He shoved the confused tom back into the den and he flopped down with a sigh of relief to be out of the wind. Gently placing down what he had in his mouth it was revealed to be, sticks and some cobwebs; albeit torn up from the wind, were still useable."I apologize for running out like that, but I needed to get these before they all blew away. If were going to get your paw fixed we need to brace it. Come on, take off the cobwebs and show me your paw." He said.

He did and it was all swollen. He winced and saw part of his bone. Blood oozed out of it. "Thank you. You havebeen a good friend, and mate." he said (gtg to bed!)
