The last thing she had wanted to do was go begging Sagewhisker for help like some sorry, weak-willed apprentice, but she had been running out of options. At this point, she wanted nothing more than to rip the little parasites out of her body, to free herself from the living hell she was suffering alone. The aid she had sought from Sagewhisker had enabled her to finally keep a meal down, but the sudden lapse in vomiting had created an even greater sensation of illness. It was like a poison to her body. 

Vixenleap had visibly lost weight, but that willful fire still glowed in her pale eyes. Like it or not, Lynxstar was partially responsible for this mess, and so it was necessary that he be involved. She fully intended on forcing him to the nursery just as much, making him clean the rats and see to it that their moss was changed. She would do the feeding, and he...he could do the rest. 

And if he wanted to protest, she'd teach him a whole new level of fear. 

The red warrior hadn't moved most of the day since the treatment from Sagewhisker and the temporary cessation of vomiting. It made her feel so ill that she felt as if she couldn't muster the strength to walk. However, it seemed that the herbs had slowly worn off, and finally she'd become sick once again. Miraculously, she felt better again after emptying her stomach. It seemed awfully contradictory- she'd have to have a word with that medicine cat. With her claws. 

Mobile once again, the thinning Vixenleap marched off towards the leader's den. It was time that she update the kits' bastard of a father on their status, share with him what Sagewhisker had told her: one fire element, and the two others...peculiar. The warrior welcomed herself into the leader's quarters to find him sleeping, and without hesitation, sharply jabbed him in the side with a paw. She could be much more cruel, perhaps light his ass on fire, but...she was feeling awfully exhausted. He should be grateful that she was showing him mercy. "Wake your sorry ass up." Vixenleap grunted abruptly, glowering down at Lynxstar with furrowed brows. 

Although her sides were swollen, her stature was visibly thinner. It seemed that her spine was nearly visible beneath her russet coat. "I saw Sagewhisker, about the kits and the sickness."
