The patrols were taking too long. Sure, they hadn’t exactly given them much time. But the leaf-bare frosts threatened the last few precious herbs they could get, and Snail needed those herbs. Walking at a brisk pace, their green eyes were peeled for orange, and only orange. After a few minutes, they were near ThunerClan when — aha! A whole bush of them! There were only a few flowers... but still! Excitedly, the tabby picked the largest ones. One... two... three....! Hmm... There! Two more. Five in total.... How to carry them! Oh — leaves. Duh. They were all over this time of year. Grabbing a big, yellowish one, they tried their best to wrap the precious flowers. It was incredibly awkward to carry and took them forever, but Snail arrived at camp with the flowers! Aha! Out of breath, they dumped them into the medicine den. Whew... they sure weren’t going back out there for awhile. That was tiring.
