Shifteye leaped from one patch of solid ground to another in her search for the traveling herbs. She sniffed the air and smelt rat nearby, but she knew that she couldn't eat it. She phlemed, hoping the scent of the herbs would come to her. She sensed the rich medicinal smell, a smell that made her mouth bitter, of what could have been the herb which she was in search of. She made her way in that direction. She saw the dark green herb growing on a patch of dry land alongside other herbs she recognized. She carefully collected some of the leaves and thin stalks, making sure her teeth didn't break the fiber. That was the one that stopped hunger, but what about the one for strength. She stopped walking to think about it once more, trying to remember what it looked like. A picture finally came to her and she looked around her. Just weeds and marsh grass in sight. She continued her search and she finally found what she thought, and hoped, was the right herb. She added a few slender leaves to the bundle already in her mouth and headed back to the Shadowclan camp.
