She soon arrived with Goose'fury, she would have a few problems with the patrol, but she wouldn't let it show, besides, she could use this as a learning experience. Bright'talon had only taught her land hunting and Rumbling'storm only taught her basic swimming and fighting, now that she thought about it, she was bit behind.

Maybe more than a bit.

Oh well, may as well get to doing the patrol, she kept her muzzle shut, knowing it was probably the better decision. The apprentice went to the edge of the pond, and noticed what Goose'fury was doing, his paw was over the water, probably to snatch some of the fish when they came.

>Goosefury<
A flash of silver appeared, and Goosefury swiped at the water. He managed to scoop up a decent-sized fish, and with a bite to the back of its neck, it was dead. One fish for RiverClan. How pathetic. He glanced up at Whitepaw. "Better get a move on. We need more than this."

He repositioned himself by the water to wait again.

They padded up behind Riverstripe, blinking around as their paws hardly threw up any dirt.

Looked simple enough, she repositioned herself as well, slightly away from Goosefury. Maybe they could actually catch more than one fish, she patiently waited, waiting for a silver flash to appear like with Goosefury.

It was odd now that she looked back, was was she so insistent that training had to be one way, it didn't lead to success for her, did it? She kept her eyes dead on the water, an unsuspecting fish had to come soon.

Riverstripe saw a fish in the water and flashed out a paw in an attempt to catch it but failed @Swiftstripe

Fiercepaw, excited for not having to be treated like an apprentice for the rest of the day, returned to the pond, sitting down as still as a statue, waiting for a flash of silver. After a few moments, she saw movement and quick as a flash dipped her head in the water and soon resurfaced with a fish in her jaws. She killed it quickly and placed it in front of Junipersong before returning to her position and soon she was returning with another fish in her mouth. She placed it excitedly in front of her mentor and she looked at her, her gaze asking what was next.

Watching as her apprentice waited around. Just as much as this was a lesson in hunting, this was a lesson in patience. Learning to wait for the right opportunity to strike. It was a very important lesson to learn, and although the meaning of it may go over the heads of most apprentices, it was certainly still something Junipersong intended to teach. Patience was probably the most mature thing that she knew, cause everything else about her was a bit childish and playful.

"Very good. Now help me bring these back to the fresh kill pile, then you can take one for yourself and enjoy the rest of your day!"

Splashleap was unsettled, to say the least. Quietclaw's quick death was unnerving, and she couldn't help but feel cats were expecting her to do something. But what? Back up Kestrelstar, or go against him? There were so many ways things could go wrong, and the molly tried to drive them from her head. Padding up to the muddy bank of Cattail pond, Splashleap mewed quickly to the three cats with her You do all know how to hunt, correct? Of course the other warrior would, but it was always possible apprentices wouldn't know how to fish. Mentors could be quite lax these days, unfortunately. Better to check before assuming and sending them off on their own.

Palebrook dipped her head to Crowpaw. "Don't worry, this is the perfect time to teach you," She meowed. It was a annoying, since catching fish should be one of the first things apprentices should learn. Whoever Crowpaw's mentor was was neglecting their duties.

She turned to the other apprentice. "And you? Do you know how to fish?" Chances are she wouldn't. Mentors weren't very good there days, that's for sure.

Flaremist padded towards to cattails pond. Small minnows darted around the stalks that were rooted underneath the spring clear water. He had decided to try out a trick he had heard from Mossywing. The grey bengal cat had quickly become friends when Flaremist had accidentally eaten Mossywing's fish. Mossywing had forgiven him saying, "I can catch another one later today." Flaremist had liked having a friend so forgiving. He was going to make up for his mistake by catching Mossywing a brand new fish.

Tearing out a cattail from its roots, he dipped the fluffy end lightly into the water. Some of it's highly compacted seeds floated off, just what Flaremist was hoping for. Tiny minnows swam up and snagged the seeds away before darting back down to the depths. The orange tabby tom hissed as they escaped his claws.

"Mouse-dung!"

He cursed under his breath. The tiny fish were too slippery for his paws to catch. He did tippy-tappies with his front paws in anticipation as a large-sized fish began to slowly swim up for a tiny seed. The orange tabby checked to see his shadow wasn't being cast into the water, that could scare the fish right away. Flaremist held his breath excitedly.

Faster than lightning, he shot out his paws and scooped up the fish, dropping it onto the shore and killing it swiftly. He stared at it, it seemed healthy and far larger than he had anticipated.

"Yes! I did it! Finally!" He yowled. The other fishes that were nibbling on the remaining floating seeds had darted away at his outburst, he didn't care. Flaremist had finally caught a fish for his friend.
