Mosspaw flops onto his side, breathing heavily. He's close to frustrated tears as he says, "Y-yeah, I'm... I'm alright." Why could he do it when he was a kit, but not now as an apprentice? He had missed a kick, that's why. He missed a kick, and his heart seized up and he panicked, and now he's on the shore panting while the others are swimming so effortlessly. He failed. @gs29513

Calm down. You're ok. You just need a little practice, that's all. Splashleap mewed, shaking out her fur. You were doing really well there for a while. Then in looked like you hit a rock or something, that threw you off. Hopefully he wouldn't over-react or anything. He was going to be a really good swimmer, with a little practice. @mellifluentCurator

Mosspaw looks at the ground, blinking hard. "Yeah, I guess so." He doesn't really believe her. He thought he would be good at this, but obvioudly not. He sits up and watches the other apprentices swim, peeking at Splashleap out of the corner of his eye. What does she think of him? "I didnkt hit a rock, I just kicked out of rhythm and then panicked like an idiot. Sorry," he says, looking at the ground. @gs29513

You're fine! Did I tell you the first time I swam? Splashleap asked, knowing she hadn't. I was fishing at Cattail pond, and I missed the fish, and toppled right in! I clunked around, and almost sank until my mentor hauled me out. At least you meant to be in the water! @mellifluentCurator

Mosspaw smiles a little and laughs softly. "Really? I guess that's a little reassuring. No offence," he says. He shakes out his fur and looks back into the water. Mosspaw is terrified of making a fool of himself again, but he knows that if he doesn't learn this, he'll never become a useful member to his Clan. Stretching out his back legs, he says, "I think I'm feady to try again." @gs29513

None taken! Splashleap laughed, pleased that Mosspaw was lightening up. Alright, hop in then! she mewed, as he decided to go back in. She didn't think he would have problems, but decided to stay nearby, just in case. @mellifluentCurator

"Nothing can cover up your ugly!" Lionstar snapped at Frozenpaw, visibly irked with them. "Now kick your legs and swim, Frozenpaw."

Tinypaw was already amazing. Lionstar was proud of the bird feather baby. "Why can't you be more like him?" He hissed quietly at his brother. "Good job, Tinypaw!" Maybe that would encourage Frozenpaw to DO BETTER, because Lionstar wasn't impressed with his pathetic display.

To Firepaw, he flicked his tail. "Why aren't you practicing? I told you to." But he supposed it didn't matter. Ivorypaw seemed to vanish, so Lionstar zoned in on Leopardpaw. "Get over here! Walk into the water until you're no longer touching the ground. Kick with your back legs, paddle with your front-- that steers you, and stay calm."

Once they did that, they could move onto fishing..

Where did Salmonsong go? Lionstar wasn't sure he wanted to know.

Raising his voice, he turned to the rest of the Clan involved in this. "Blizzardsky, grab Salmonsong's group and make sure they know what they're doing. The rest of you--

"When you're done swimming, move onto fishing! You don't necessarily need to catch anything - it might be hard with cats in the water, but show them how you'd do it in theory."


His paws itched to keep going, if only.. if only the stupid apprentices with him were better. Tinypaw was a blessing.

[ Please try to wrap up your swimming lessons & move onto fishing! Salmonsong's apps have been reassigned to join Blizzardsky. ]

~Splashfury of RC~

It was amazing that only 2 cats were actually active in the activity where they were required to learn. Splashfury knew that they wouldn't have much time to fish due to the fact that they took so long waiting for the others to join them when they really just didn't join them. Her anger made her growl as she scanned to see if she could find the cats that were supposed to be in her group were anywhere to be seen. It was a waste of her time and the ones that were there to wait.

"You are wondering if crabs live here?" she questioned carefully. Did this cat have phobias related to crabs or something. Splashfury would have to be careful if she was going to teach them how to swim, "No crabs over this part of the waters. You can find some at the Lionsbeach if you want." Hopefully that would be the answer they were looking for. She chose this particular area so then nothing would disturb them as she taught them how to swim. It wouldn't end well if herons decided to revenge on her as she was trying to teach the small group.

The black and orange cat watched Plumpaw as they went to complain how they didn't like the water. Splashfury batted her eyes at them wondering if they were even considered to be part of Riverclan. "Well, what if the river flooded? Would you rather sink to the bottom because you didn't learn or would you rather float?" she asked as she splashed some water onto some plants to watch the drops fall back into the water. It was a satisfying thing to watch if they were in sync in the drops.

She knew that Lionstar had made them switch to go fish but she really didn't like putting things off for later when she could complete them now. Part of the reason that her suffix was 'fury' was because she was impatient but she liked to get things done. Of course she was flexible but Splashfury sometimes thought that she should be able to do things the way they were planned. Changing last moment is a bit of a hassle for her. If Plumpaw wasn't going to get into the water, then the molly might need to drag them in. The tabby may need to ask Lionstar about Plumpaw's past. If they were from a different clan, why did they choose Riverclan if they hated the water so much. It just doesn't make since. If they were born into Riverclan, it would be concerning.

Amberpaw nodded, and looked around, spotting a fish. She tried to catch it, but just missed.

Alright, apprentices in my group, make your way back to shore! Splashleap called out. Hopefully they would get the message. Skunkpaw and Wavepaw had been able to swim well, and Amberpaw and Mosspaw had gotten the hang of it quickly. Hopefully the fishing would be just as easy. Moving a bit upstream of the crush of cats and noise, she hoped her group would make there way over. Then she could have Wavepaw and probably Skunkpaw practice, and give Amberpaw and Mosspaw a hand learning how to fish. @~RooRoo~ @Siren Bliss @Sklee @mellifluentCurator
------------------------------
Rushpaw paddled to the bank, and hopped up next to Blizzardsky. Now she was going to FISH! Which was SO COOL! She was gonna catch it and then eat it ALL UP! So, she mewed Teach me to fish. Ok, less of a mew and more of a demand. @Zesty Mango
