ooc. This is all welcome for all Creekers who want to know what the cure is, and how to find it. If you don't join this pack, then you can just assume that some pack member has told your character. (:
ic. After darting back to get another bundle of the rose-thorn sharp, foreign tasting reeds, Fei had begun to move as quickly as she could towards Silver Creek. Luckily, Silver Creek wasn't as far away from Strawberry Fields as Mount Shadow was. (When February had passed the Creek on the way back from her homelands, she had felt dissapointed that she couldn't have carried more, for she could have just simply dropped it off on the way, if that was the case.) Unluckily for the young arctic pup, her jaws couldn't hold that much of the curing reeds. Tail streaming out behind her as she ran, though she had begun to feel wary from all of the distance that she had covered, and in such a short time-span as well. Tail wagged slightly, and when she stepped for into Silver Creek, her heart twanged painfully for a few seconds.
Shaking her head to remind herself of the more urgent matters at hand, she hopped deeper into the territory, before finding a flat rock to place the reeds on. Like she had done at Mount Shadow, she dropped it, and then put her paw over it, to prevent it from being scattered to the wind. Shivering slightly in the cold near-evening breeze, the arctic pup tilted her head up to the sky, enthusiasm pushing her on and giving her energy, and Fei howled, letting her song long- it was squeaky, for she hadn't much experience with howling, but it was a howl all the same. The disease would soon be history.

Tia wouldn't miss this for the world.
Another howl, and not one from her alpha. She did not know this voice but it was too young. With her heart doing a dramatic dive in her chest she turned and whirled, her head came up sharply and she lifted her nose to the breeze, trying to catch scent of this brave young thing that had made the call on the wind. Wasting no time, wondering if this one too was ill, as Artemis had been, she stretched her legs into a full sprint, coming to find who ever it was that had been reaching for the Silver Creek wolves, wanting them to come and find her. Tiamat was almost positive that it was a female.
It didn’t take her long to get there, it never did. Alacrity was something that Tiamat had been gifted with. Upon arriving at the scene she was surprised to find a small white wolf, almost a perfect miniature being of herself, waiting. Taking the strange posture of the female into account she recalled that this youngling was February, the one that had gone up the river with herself, Poet, and Cypress. Had not the little girl left the creek for the company of Cypress on the mountain? Though she did not hold it against the youngster, she had noticed a bond between the white pup and the black ex-alpha, Tiamat was still a little surprised to see her.
"Fei? What goes on here?" Glancing around to see if the arrival of any other wolves would occur she glanced down at the pup’s paw. Without comprehension she murmured. "What have you got there, dove?" Coming to a slow halt before the puppy she gave a small half smile, tilting her head curiously. She had no intention of playing Guardian and kicking the cub out the Creek. That was Bronx’s title, not hers. Her chest tightened momentarily. Bronx, he was still sick. Her mind wandered over the hills and far to the mountain, wishing, desiring, hoping that he was getting better, that the illness had not worsened. After this she would go to see him. |

Tada! =D
It was bad enough the sickness had lasted this long. It had been, what, nearly a month? There had been many he had been close to who were affected by the illness, and male had heard of wolves seeking to find a cure, but so far to no avail. Day by day, hope was dwindling and the fear was amplified with the bad news of an unsuccessful treatment that had promised healing but came up short.
He had done what he could, looking after those he had come up and following them at times to make sure they did not hurt themselves in their states of confusion and memory loss. Going undercover as a pirate had been … interesting … for that was the only word he could really describe it, but he was a wolf and proud to be one; Takashi would rather not don anymore fake aliases such as one of Earl Tictac; Mr. Tictac Pattywhack could be laid to rest, thank you very much.
This evening, he had been on his way back home and simply stepped onto familiar territory when ears caught a howl not too far away, one that sounded like a youth and female at that. It had a familiar ring to it, though one which he hadn’t heard for quite some time now. It had a certain message, and curiosity drew him towards the howl, seeking to find out what exactly it was all about.
Tiamat first came into view. A woof was called out to her before muzzle tapped her shoulder lightly in greeting. Only when the white female moved aside slightly did he catch sight of a white pup standing there with paws over something on the ground. It was February! He still recalled the time he ran into her and another pup from Mount Shadow, though traces of the youth had not been around for the longest time. Scents of the Mount was on her pelt now, and Takashi wondered if she had relocated there for some reason or another – or simply been spending a lot of her time on the mount with her friend. Whatever the case, he smiled to her and nudged the youth as well. ”What have you got there?” He peered at the substance on the ground.

ooc. -waves- Glad you're both here! And anyone else who wishes to join can feel free to jump in.
ic. While the young pup waited for people to show up, she tilted her head so that the wind could breeze past her chin, and cool her down. She had trekked quite a long way, and so much distance in so little time was quite an amazing feat for the young pup, or so she thought. Carefully watching her pile, making sure that none of the reeds were scattered into the air. She stood there, alertly glancing all around her, searching for any familiar or unfamiliar face- as long as the wolf radiated the creek, she'd pass the news onto him or her. Soon enough, a white frame came into view, and when February reconized the wolf, she brightened, tail wagging quickly as she barked out a gentle greeting.
"Tiamat!" she greeted once again, tone polite and friendly, but edged with obvious eagerness. She was about to lengthen her simple greeting when the Tiamat asked her what she had. Fei's smile broadened, and she began to explain to the older Creeker whom the young pup rather admired. "Choga' and I found the cure for the sickness!" She grinned, and straightened her small frame, obviously pleased with herself and her friend strawberry. Before she had the time to explain her words, another familiar figure wandered into her view, and Fei's tail wagged faster, grinning when she heard the male's question.
Enthusiasm hinted in her words, she repeated what she had said to Tiamat, "Cho' an' I found the cure!" She glanced at both adults, the smile still plastered onto her face, and began to talk again, "We teste' some differen' plants on some rabbits, and these reeds worked!" She glanced at the reeds, pushing her paw a bit closer towards the two adults, the precious yet sharp medicide sliding against the rock. "If yew guys think yew need more, I can go fetch some," she offered helpfully, like she had to the wolves of Mount Shadow.

homg last sick post, finally xD
Pounce, Pounce, lunge left, lunge right. She was a whole new species. A lynx or a bobcat. Whatever was the coolest species Gracie figured she was that. She saw a mouse, she pounced it, and ate it (Oh, Gracie ate meat!). Her long unbushy (When it really was bushy as she was a wolf and was known for her thick pelt) flicked as she neared the scene of wolves.
"Mowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww." She stated, her cyan eyes glistening. She was now to her destination. Where all the small puppies were. Too bad they had gaurds with them. Ho-hum. So, obviously the little white one found something as she gleed with joy. Gracie had a day when she knew she was Gracie, but that was only once. She didnt know how, she figured it was a miracle then.
"Little white fluff find wot?" She megerly said, glancing to the 'white fluff', whom she'd already forgotten her name (Fei). She didnt know what the hassle was about, but whatever. Whatever floated this weird species boat.

Very nice, Gracie. XP I wasn't expecting her to show up at the wrong pack cure. Good touch.
Tiamat listened to the small formerly Silver Creek cub explain what seemed to be the impossible. A cure. Even the second time, as Takashi arrived to see what all the hubbub was about Tiamat was still shocked, stunned, unbelieving and hardly able to think. They had found a cure. Everything was going to be better now. Bronx, Artemis, Sphinx, all of them, they’d get better. Just as she had told Bronx they would. Everyone was going to be alright. The day was saved. With her heart thumping so loudly in her chest that she was sure the entire world could hear it Tiamat nearly laughed and cried at once, so relieved to finally have an answer to the problem of the entire valley.
She was flying, and she wouldn’t be coming down any time soon. It was then that Gracie chose to make her appearance. Turning to the deranged white-brown spotted wolf she cocked her head. Glancing to Takashi, as if to give him warning that the female was ill and knew not what she did, Tiamat then turned her attention back to Gracie. Smiling a little bit at the crazed rambling she murmured. "Hi there Sally." She was not sure of the wolf would respond to the name she had given a few days ago when Tiamat had spotted her last. "We’ve got a special treat for you today. Don’t we, Fei?" Tiamat gave the pup a meaningful glance. Stepping forward she pulled a bit of the stuff free from beneath the youngling’s paws and offered it hopefully to Gracie.
Tiamat, hopefully with the assistance of Fei and Takashi, would use brute force to get Gracie to eat it if she had to – but perhaps that would not be required. |

Fei and Tiamat seemed to already know each other, and it was a good sight to see the two happily chattering about something. Only when he was clued in on what they were talking about did he realize the magnitude of the news. A cure for the sickness! That was the answer so many had been seeking, and here a pup had found it! How wonderful! Now his friends and others could be cured and return to normal, and life in the Salvajes could be resumed once more to its former peaceful and happy days where creatures knew what they were and who they were with no nonsense about pirates and the like. Happily, he rejoiced by nudging both the pup and Tiamat, almost tempted to prance in a circle about the two of them.
”A cure! That’s great news! How smart you two are!” Indeed, they would all be in debt to Fei and Chogan, the two youngsters who discovered the cure for the sickness that plagued the valley for almost a whole month. ”Where can we get more of this reed?” He would follow after Fei if need be and bring more to the pack and make sure there was enough for the sick ones to consume and get better. Hopefully, there would be enough to go around for everyone.
Just at that moment, Gracie decided to show up, seemingly lost as the words that came from her were confusing to him. Was she acting like a pirate again? Yet she sounded different from the time when the two had engaged in a ship crew of some sort. Tiamat then called her Sally, which did not appease Takashi’s confusion at all, but he’ll willingly go along with it, much as he had done on the “ship”. Nodding his head in agreement with Tiamat, he glanced first at the reeds then at Gracie. ”Wanna give it a try?” He didn’t call her by a specific name; who knew what identity she was harboring at this moment.

ooc. –giggles- she makes me laugh. :D
ic. When she heard Takashi's question, the young pup didn't reply right after, and instead she questioned herself briefly, wondering if the reeds in Strawberry fields were the only source. She mentally wracked her brain as she tried to remember what Chogan had told her about the cure, and suddenly it came to her mind. She brightened, blue eyes gazing around to meet Takashi's golden gaze, and she proudly answered, "Yew can find these reeds an'where near sickish water." Hopefully some part of that made sense to the Creeker, for Fei didn't really know how to explain it. Tail wagged, though all of a sudden, one of the sick wolves that February knew burst into the area. Fei flinched, not expecting the sudden arrival.
February nodded, agreeing with Tiamat's words, and then nosed the bundle of reeds closer towards the teal-eyed female, seriously staring at Gracie as she let out a few words, "Yesm, issa ve'y special, an' will make yew feel good," she didn't know how she would have to convince the female to eat it if Gracie refused, but hopefully, they wouldn't need to face that problem.

Lmao. I have such fun with her. Its great to do the unexpected x]
The wolf feline moved with a complicated clumsyness she supposed was 'Graceful'. Her eyes diverted to Tiamat, some strange 'ess. "Meowwwwwwww." She said, darting away. "I 'zo nawt wan' WOLF food. I like meowmix." She said with a frown. Oh yes, today would be a stubborn one. She glanced at Fei, and giggled. "Iz it CATNIP?"
Gracie began to dash off, running around, turning into something completley different. "LETS GO STREAKING. LETS RUN AROUND NEKKID, WOOWOOWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO." She screamed, bolting around. Her spine curled as she leapt to her right and almost fell, but gained her footing and dashed past Tiamat, pelt breezing upon Tias own. "YEAHYEAHYEAHHHHHHHHHHH WOOOOOOOT COME ON GUYS LETS PARTY AND GET MAD CRUNK WOOOOOO."
"FEEL GOOOOOOD?" She said as she shot past Fei. "How much is it?" She said stopping, as if it were some drug. "Yo, How. Much." She said, but then she began running again as if she were already high and leaping around. "ONE TWO THREE FOUR HAPPY DAYS, FOUR FIVE SIX SEVEN .... IN YOUR FACE?!?!"
Oh god. Oh snap. Someone, save this girl and your ears. POUNCE her. Gracie had no idea what the hell she was doing, she was totally out of it, she had no control of herself. Some little MONSTER was totally messing up her life. The poor, poor girl. What would she wake up to? Angry scowls, most likely. And then she'd be jumped again, for embaressing herself. And she wouldnt mind.
Because in the back of her mind she would soon know how much she deserved it.

Poor Gracie. I feel sort of bad for her. lol, at least Tiamat isn't very big.
As Tiamat feared the wolf that had previously called herself Sally was completely insane. Worried, the female’s blue eyes followed the supposed cat as she darted around screeching about something that sounded like a feline sound. A glance at Takashi was given. They were going to have to launch a surprise attack on this bozo of a wolf. Tiamat was beginning to wonder if it was too late to save her mind. Edging around on her feet she waited for Gracie to come zooming back toward her.
Taking a free second to dip her muzzle toward Fei and Takashi whispering hastily. "I’m going to pin her down. Get that medicine in her mouth the very first chance you get." And with that she turned and sized up the spotted wolf. A sudden burst of speed came from the female and she became nothing but a white blur, churning limbs and flying fur. Focusing all of her energy on it she made to land on Gracie’s back and take her down, she prayed that Taka and Fei were ready.
With a flying leap she launched herself toward the unfortunate Gracie, wishing heavily that she was fast enough and strong enough to take the poor sick wolf down and keep her down long enough to get the cure into her mouth and down. |

Tehehehehe, Gracie cracked me up.

When he found out that the reeds could be found near sickish water, he almost laughed aloud. To think that the place one would least likely to look for the cure was where the medicine would reside. In a way, it would make sense for the reeds would have developed a sort of immunity to the water. No one would have thought to even look at anything near the poisoned source, but thanks to the puppies, they were reminded that the youngsters were able to do what the adults couldn’t, and they ought to listen and heed them much more in the future.
Yes, he had known that Gracie would be delusional and even be confused as to who she was and who they were. Hadn’t he seen it for himself when she addressed him as a pirate and recruited him on her ship to a trip to Candy Mountain? Along with her had been a slew of other wolves who he could only suppose had been sick as well and therefore confused themselves, but this was way beyond what he had been expecting. Now not only was she thinking she was a cat, but there were weird words coming out of her mouth. She ran and chased as if there was something hot on her trail, not stopping at all even when the three had offered to give her something to make her feel better.
He caught the glance Tiamat had given to him and with the plan now determined, he nodded his head in agreement and looked to Fei to make sure the two of them were ready. The white female had found a right moment to launch herself on top of Gracie in hopes of pinning the crazed female down; he and Fei were to try and stuff the reeds down into her mouth and make sure it went down completely. If need be, he would also lend his weight to holding down the struggling Gracie. Hopefully, they could all get out of this without any injury to themselves or to others.

ooc. o: fun thread!
ic. The pup blinked, surprised by the crazy wolf's sudden burst of... more crazy. With a worried expression caressing her face, the pup took a few steps back, wary of her safety, for Gracie certainly wasn't acting too.. normal- then again, Fei had never seen the older white female act normal, for she had managed to catch her during her craziest times. Frowning, the pup turned to the two adults, at a loss at what she could possibly do. Tail twitched nervously behind the little arctic pup, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when she heard Tiamat's whispers. She nodded, and watched as the female launched herself at the whitish teal-eyed female.
The pup immediantly grabbed a mouthful of the reeds, and bounded towards the pair, lanky limbs lending her additional speed. Soon enough, she approached the other two alabaster females, and began to attempt to shove the medicine down the feline-canine's mouth, praying that Gracie would end up swallowing some of the curing reeds.

Woooot <3
Gracie began dashing around, fast, right? So the impact Tiamat had done was rather much. She felt her spine hit the ground and she groaned out an 'oooooooh', pawing the air with all fours to insure that she was A- Ok. Her lobes flickered as she began to scowl then protest, "WHAT THE HE-BWAHBBLE" A pup began to shove something down her throat and immidiatly her throat clogged up as she spewed it in the childs face.
"WHAT, YOU CRAZY THING- YOU WANT ME TO CHOKE?!" But it had only resulted in more being shoved in her throat, causing her to panic. She had to do something to stop this insanity. The sick fem allowed the food to sit there in her mouth as she tried her best to make her body look limp. She wasn't lying, she was defending herself- her life. She was playin' dead.
Of course, she had now actually swallowed the plant, and the affects were plentiful. "My head hurts my stomache hurts- Oh, Oh no," And of course, from eating the plants, having them shoved down your throat, rather, she puked up all the swamp water on the spot, said "Oh, Snap Im sorry-" Then she collapsed looking like quite the mess. So, in all. She had went streaking, tried to buy some shit, was a cat- all in one day! She woke up soon after groggily, letting out a moan.
She saw the vomit, of course there were no chunks as it was WATER. And she grew nervous. Her tail went absolutly, positivly low. "Im... How did I wake up here? I go to sleep in my.... my den, then I wake up here a week later...." She of course would appolagise. When of course, she knew what the hell happened.

The squirming and struggling was difficult for the white female to control, but somehow she managed to keep the bewildered Gracie under wraps long enough for Fei and Takashi to muscle some of the medicine down her throat. For a while Tiamat thought that the female was going to reject it, but when she saw Gracie swallow she released her. At first the slender white wolf was afraid that they had killed her. The squirming, vomiting, and then alarming stillness did not seem to be incredibly good signs.
And then, bam. The spotted wolf was up and going again. Wondering, sputtering, spitting out random words that seemed to come all in a rush. With cautious eyes she watched the wolf assess the situation. Slowly Tiamat smiled a little bit and titled her head slightly, glancing from Takashi to Fei silently. "You’ve been sick, dear." Tiamat finally responded, not sure of how much Gracie remembered. "But its over now. We fixed you. The cure has been found." A meaningful glance was given to Fei, crediting her. |

As Fei was quick to pick up on the plan, she immediately ran to the side and stuffed the reeds down Gracie’s throat even as the Mount wolf struggled against it from the very beginning. The squirming and kicking was hard to hold down – he was even afraid of hurting her as she laid there playing dead – but thank goodness the cure had found itself down into Gracie’s stomach. After the vomiting of the bad water, it seemed that Gracie was beginning to regain her consciousness, more aware of herself now – and definitely acting more normal as well – than ever before, a good sign after all the weeks of odd behaviors.
Tiamat was the first to explain the situation, and he simply confirmed her words with a nod of his head. ”You drank some bad water and was pretty … crazy for awhile.” Unsure of whether or not to use the word “crazy”, he did at the end; the truth was the truth. ”Fei and Chogan were able to find the cure, so we should all thank them both. I hope you’re feeling all right.” Hopefully she wouldn’t be running around believing she was a cat anymore! He wondered if he could look at Gracie again and not chuckle in the future about what he had witnessed. Would she even remember Earl Tictac?

ooc. This thread's been going on long enough, so this'll be my last post. xD o: Must have another sometime soon! -waves-
ic. February flinched when she heard Gracie's loud struggles. Though she had been expecting them, she hadn't thought that they would be quite so… loud. Suddenly, the young female swallowed, and the next words that left her maw made sense, though she seemed quite confused and lost. The young arctic pup watched with surprise; she hadn't thought that the reeds' effect would take place so soon after Gracie had swallowed them, but it certainly did meet a faster purging of the sickness. Tail wagged as she looked at the other two wolves, grinning as she realized that the wolf wouldn't scare her by acting extremely strange any more.
She turned to the two Silver Creek adults, nodding when she heard their words, since she felt no need to further explain- Tiamat and Takashi had said it all. Instead she smiled at the female, and looked at the two adults, tilting her head to suggest that they should get to healing the rest of their pack. She needed to get home too. Her tail flicked idly behind her, and she spoke, "Well, issa 'bout time for me to go… see yew guys later!" Bright blue eyes glinted as she spun around and began to dart off, energy burning fiercy within her. Her journey was over, and the Salvajes was going to be healed.
