RiverClan Territory

[Breken]

Snowfang open her eyes again and was shocked that she forgot to go in some reeds before falling asleep she looked around to see if any cat seen her but she couldn’t see any the smell of riverclan cats was all around her she got used to it and she calmed down and stayed where she was

"I'll give you a few of my opinions I suppose, but really just pick whatever makes you happy, and that I know how to pronounce." he said, following behind the molly. He'd supposed picking a name was incredibly important. He'd never put much thought into it, really, how much thought could go into a name. He'd have to give the queens more props.

The leader listened to the molly ramble, going on about all different types of flowers. "You know, if you can't just pick one, why not use them all at once? You know a Meadow has all kinds of different flowers in it." he suggested. Being specific was a little tricky, especially for her, it seemed. "Or you could go specific, that's just my suggestion." the tom quickly added.

((aggghh im sorry this is so late!!))

Zinniaspark gasped at Fallenstar's suggestion. "Oh, that's perfect! And I have a perfect suffix to go with it: skip! So I'd be Meadowskip!" She smiled. Something about the name Meadow just felt right. She had decided on the suffix skip because she felt that she always had a skip in her step. Plus, she just liked the way the name sounded.

"Thank you for coming with me Fallenstar. I really appreciate the help!" she said. "I guess we should head back, since I've picked my name?" She turned towards the way they came. She was excited to tell everyone about her new name. She'd been worrying over what she would choose ever since Fallenstar told her she had to change her name, but she felt that she'd found the right name.

Graypaw easily caught up with Pigeonpaw by the river, straining his claws against the earth to refrain himself from falling in. “I know, I know!” he wheezed, nearly shaking out of his own fur. His legs trembled like a newborn, barely holding himself up, but he refused to sit down. His nerves were far to spiked to sit, plus his tail refused to untuck between his legs. Embarrassed and uncomfortable, Graypaw paced anxiously by the river. “No, Pigeonpaw, this is my fault! I’ve been so caught up in getting away with things lately that I blinded myself from seeing the line! I should have known exploring ShadowClan borders would have been too dangerous at this time...but of all the cats we could have run into! Can you believe it?”

Realizing Pigeonpaw’s panic, the silvery maine coon sighed and went to his sister’s side. “Hey, it’s gonna be okay.” he began grooming her puffed out cheeks in an attempt to soothe her. “We’ll just have to keep quiet and hope Icestar doesn't tell Fallenstar or Lionstorm.”

It hadn't previously dawned on Pebblepaw that Fawnpaw had been so initially distressed about getting into the water... He wasn't a completely new swimmer, right? There was no way! But still, the apprentice paddled back towards the other, toes spread as his back legs kicked violently against the flow of the stream.

"Here," He sputtered, water spilling from his jaws as he swam alongside Fawnpaw. "You can lean on me for support if you need! Don't worry about moving fast either, just make sure you're comfortable." Pebblepaw bobbed in place, a goofy smile playing across his features. Despite his worry for his friend, the grey fluff ball looked surprisingly content. Not to mention, he looked like a drowned rat, the fur on his face slicked back to reveal the more detailed structure of his face. "One moment!" Droplets flung from his whiskers as he quickly planted his paws on the bank where he could stand - giving his dripping pelt a rough shake as best he could. Once that had been completed, Pebblepaw flopped back into the water with a splash and content purr.

"Sometimes when you get out and then back in the water is warmer! I do it when I start getting chilly. But anyway! What did you want to learn? Do you just want to swim around and get a feel for it or?"

Snowfang was keeping an eye out for any cats even if she knew how to fight but she couldn’t go toe to toe against a warrior form any clan she would probably get captured or worse killed

"Alright, let's head out then!"

And with a flick of his tail, Frostflight lead the way pushing through the dense reeds that sheltered the camp from the elements. Inhaling a deep breath, Frostflight waited patiently for the two to catch up before continuing forward. It wouldn't be a long walk at all - the river was virtually next to camp. Sunlight scattered through the trees, the warm iridescent pinks and yellows of leaf-bare dripping from the leaves and sending the stream into a beautiful canvas of colors. A genuine smile played on his lips as the group approached the side of the river bank.

"Ok, Shiverpaw. What has Jasperpelt taught you so far? Are you comfortable going near the water or fishing in it?" Frostflight's method of fishing was rather... rash. He would splash through the water like a mouse-brain, kicking out dirt and fish from the bottom only to try then dart head first down to catch the scattering prey. Not a remarkable or handy way to fish, but it was fun! Still, that was way past the two apprentice's skill levels. He knew Blazepaw wasn't a fan... When Shiverpaw was done answering his question, Frostflight would give both a stare,

"We'll try not to get completely soaked by this lesson, but you may have to tread in the water. Fishing from the bank is quite hard, especially at this time of the evening when the light covers the water. Any questions before we begin?"

"Uhm-" Shiverpaw glanced Blazepaw's way, his grey optics scanning over the tom got a moment in an attempt to guess his thoughts, but flashed back to the water lapping gently at his large mittens. He had started a sentence, and he knew he needed to finish it, but what to say? I haven't learned much, or what's it like being a deputy? Am I doing alright, or am I being too shy? Maybe he was just overthinking this simple gesture [as he usually did] and needed to take a pace back, start from scratch. Did he even really have a question on the purpose of this session? No, not really. "I'm good with everything so far."

Pigeonpaw let her pelt flatten a bit as her brother did his best to calm her down. Just as she was getting a hold of herself, her panic was given another reason to skyrocket.

"Yes, you'll just have to hope, hmm?" Icestar's gruff mew sounded from behind the reeds as the massive cat made yet another grand entrance. Her face portrayed a sly grin as she surveyed the panicked apprentices with a glint in her orange eyes.
"I've changed my mind. I'd like to bring the news to the insufferable yellow creature myself. And make sure a couple of young nuisances get what they deserve. Sound fair?" She ended her phrase in what sounded like a question, but she wasn't asking their opinion. She'd made up her mind, and there was no changing it.

"You kits would do best to lead me to your camp," She commanded. Sure, they could refuse, but then she'd just go find it herself. And really, which would Lionstorm prefer? Hard to tell, but more likely it would be less infuriating if this outsider had an "escort", even if she was actually the one doing the escorting.

Pigeonpaw didn't respond immediately. Instead she crouched there at the river's edge, trembling, trying to think of some way out of this. She looked up at her brother for guidance, completely lost on what to do. It seemed like not only were these two not going to get out of this, but they were going to be humiliated in front of the whole clan, being escorted in by the new ShadowClan leader, over a stupid mistake.

Graypaw’s head whirled around at the sound of Icestar’s mew, his ears flattening in distress. There she stood, towering over him and his sister once more. No...she cant do this! Feeling Pigeonpaw’s hopeful gaze on him, Graypaw's heart became lodged in his throat. What was he supposed to do? Talk back? No, that might make it worse...who was he to argue with a leader? Feeling small and his mind drawing a blank, the silvery apprentice slowly stood and glared up at Icestar. Tension built up in his shoulders as he stared at her, bristling the fur on the back of his neck until he let it all out in a hissy "Fine."

Frustrated and defeated, Graypaw nudged his sister gently to her feet. "Come on, Pigeonpaw. Lets go to camp."

"O-Okay," was all Pigeonpaw could muster, and she got to her paws, although she walked stiffly and anxiously. Her fur did not flatten in the slightest and her ears stayed plastered to her head. Oh, StarClan, what have I done? She inwardly reprimanded herself. This was all her fault!

Icestar followed the apprentices with a certain amount of smug superiority as they lead her right to their camp. It was just past moonhigh, so the forest was still enveloped in darkness that blended in with her night-black pelt. It wasn't long before the reed barrier of the RiverClan camp filtered into view, and Pigeonpaw gave her brother one last wary glance before pushing her way in through the entrance.

Icestar took in her surroundings, wrinkling her nose at the scent of fish carcasses and salt water. She wondered briefly how these cats could ever scent anything, with a smell this strong filling their noses all the time. She looked around the camp, already scanning for the stuck-up deputy. She didn't bother looking for Fallenstar, as he was normally far more respectable and would likely be sound asleep at such an hour. No, it was the little yellow unpredictable one that she wanted to pick on.
