"Underwater!" He was admittedly scared of the dark water underneath, but pretty shells were bound to be there, right? He liked the shells! "Can we? Please?"

"Yes, we can try! Though it's not guaranteed that you will like it!" said Blizzardstorm. "You know how to swim, right? For this, you need to hold your breath or else you will try to breath in the water and you might die." yeah, she was exaggerating on the 'die' part, but better safe than sorry! "You need to dive deep under the water, and try to get hold of the river bottom. Then, you use your paw to soft through the sand. Do it quickly, for no one can hold their breath for long! If you find something, good. If you don't, well, go to the surface, take a breath, and try again." she told Reedpaw. "Wait here and watch me closely." she said. Blizzardstorm sucked in as much air as she could, and jumped into the river. Soon, she was under the water, using her paws to poke and move the sand. She hit something hard. Exited, she grasped the object, swimming up to shore. She was dripping wet, and from her mouth dangled an... object. It was big, bulky and brown. It had many long worm-like things stuck to it.

Reedpaw watched closely, not wanting to die. When she resurfaced, he gasped and tilted his head curiously. "What is that?" He asked, looking it over. It didn't look like a shell... was it a branch of some sort?

Blizzardstorm remembered seeing twolegs have things like this. "I think it's a thing twolegs wear on their back paws. Don't ask me why, for I don't know. I think it's called a Booooot." she told Reedpaw. The boot was heavy, and small crabs lived inside it. "I wanted a shell, not a Booooot." she said, dropping the boot. "Reedpaw, you can try to find something underwater now! Don't be scared, if something bad happens I'll pull you out. And lets hope you won't find another Booooot."

"A Booooot?" He asked curiously, sniffing the item. It smelled weird... did Twolegs smell like this? Probably. He then approached the water, albeit hesitantly, and took in an exaggerated breath before diving down. Terror gripped him, but his desire to find a shell outran it, and he dug. After a few moments, he hit something... soft? Well, more smooth, and weird. When he resurfaced with it, it looked like a mess of cobwebs, but much harder and see through. It had lots of big holes. "What's this?"

(I used the words Gless and Weendoow because cats do not really know what they are called. If you need translation, ask me. Gless is glass and Weendoow is window)

Blizzardstorm stared at the see through thing. "It kind of looks like a thing that twolegs use to cover up the holes in their dens or on monsters. I think it's called Gless, but when Gless is covering a hole, it is called a Weendoow. Be careful. Sometimes the edges are really sharp. You can't see the Gless, but it's there. It's like an invisible wall. I've seen birds kill themselves on Gless because they thought the Weendoow wasn't there and flew right into it." she said, remembering the birds that smacked themselves against windows. She felt sad for them, but they did taste good! "And the Gless you found seems broken. Even kind of pretty. But we came for shells, not twoleg rubbish. Those twolegs are flinging useless stuff into our river!"

Reedpaw made a face. "Weird!" He said, spitting out the object. Leaving the Gless behind, he turned and dove back into the water, hitting another hard thing. Grabbing it in his jaws, he swam up and revealed a weird shell, pointy like a pine tree! It was orange and had swirls. "Look! Lookie!"

Blizzardstorm marveled at the shell. "Wow! I think it kind of looks like the shell of a hermit crab... be careful! Hermit crabs are tiny crabs that live in shells, and their pincers are sharp! They cannot make a large wound, but they can leave a nasty cut. Try to look inside the shell. If no one is inside, it's yours. If there is any living creature in it, then try not to get pinched." she said. Finally they found something that did not belong to the twolegs!

Reedpaw sniffed at the shell. It didn't seem occupied- he thought, only to be cut off by a small red pincers reaching out and grabbing his nose. It took him a moment to process what was happening, but soon, he squeaked in pain and alarm, shaking his head to get rid of the thing. "Ow!"

"Ooop! Be careful!" Blizzardstorm said, chuckling at first. She got hold of the crab, and tried to pull him off of Reedpaw. The crab let go, and was trying to attach itself onto Blizzardstorm. Before it could get a good grip on her, she flung it back into the water.
