His tail tip twitched, "Flarey Flare? Oh by the end of this I will have the best nickname, Splashy Splash!" He challenged. His eyes gleam with excitement, his paws inch to run around and test out nicknames on her. Well that was a strange thought, Flarestrike! He laughed at his own thought, it was quiet though. He seem to be over-joy, much more different than he was at the border. His listened in, "Yeah. You are right. Let's go!" Flarestrike said, taking off. However his suffix seem to stick, he kicked off with his backlegs and his paws `strike` the ground each time. He skidded to a halt when he arrived at the stream, panting. Wrinkling his nose up when a fish swam by, actually to the new scent. He didn't realize at it first but all the new stuff hurt Flarestrike's nose. His paws weren't use to the terrain but they would be soon, he gaze down at the rippling water. "Splashy Splash, is.. is this even safe to swim in?" He asked, curious. Hey, a Riverclan would know this kind of stuff.

(Here's a idea for how they get lost, maybe Splashpool tries to swim but starts to get swept away in the stream but Flarestrike jumps in trying to save her. Both getting swept away? Or we can just wait a bit and let them just get lost by wandering.)

Splashpool followed Flarestrike almost in a hurry to get to the stream. She stopped beside Flarestrike, her eyes growing wide in excitement. "Its perfectly fine." meowed Splashpool, walking onto the bank. She placed one paw in the water. Splashpool was about ready to back up when it alnost pushed her into the water, since the water was fast. Even the river where she lived wasn't as fast. Without a moments hesitation she put all four paws in the water, only to get dragged down. The water began to sweep her away. "Flarestrike! Help me!" yowled Splashpool in distress.
(Thats an excellent idea)
