Shadowpaw was daydreaming and hunting at the same time. She purred to here the sunhigh songs from the birds. She hopped. Then she landed on the bare ground with nothing in here paws, the singing had stopped and all she heard was the birds flying away. She sighed. "Fox-dung!" she hissed. "Why am I the only cat in camp that can't catch a bird!" she spat.

Suddenly a grey figure tackled the young she-cat. Stormpaw's laughing face hovered over her, his eye sparkling with humor as he backed off her. "You just need to practice, silly." he said teasingly, his tail flickering back and forth. "I can help show you if you want Shadowpaw." he suggested, shrugging.

She smiled and laughed. "Ok! Scarletmoon hasn't taken me out to teach me how to catch them so when he shows me and when I try, I'll know how to do it," she purred. "And then we have to take care of the elders," she sighed. "Lets hope they're not crabby." she teased. Then she jumped on the grey cat and laughed.

Stormpaw chuckled, then let out a mrrow of surprise as she jumped him. Getting to his feet, he indicated for her to be quiet. He lowered himself to the ground, his tail almost brushing against it. He heard the quiet ruffle of feathers a few pawsteps away, behind a tree. He quietly crept over there, barely making a sound, even his breathing was slow and quiet. He caught sight of a sparrow cleaning it's feathers, not paying any attention to him. With a quick leap, he caught it between his paws, killing it quickly. He picked it up, padding back towards Shadowpaw. He placed it at her paws, making a face. "Too many feathers for my taste."

"I know prey tastes better on other cats territory but surely you're away you've crossed your border and this place is dangerous?" meowed a calm voice. The cat, a dark brown tom, carried an odd scent about him which matched his almost regal accent. He was crouched in a tussock, still as a rock. His fur blended in with the mud around them and a collar was visable around his neck. He was loner named Faunus, he had taken refuge in RainClan. He had been introduced at the last Gathering and seemed friendly. Now he seemed dangerous.

Stormpaw froze as he heard the voice, flinching slightly. He opened his mouth to scent the air, praying the cat was wrong. Rainclan. He mentally slapped himself as he looked around. He had been so caught up on catching that bird to show Shadowpaw, he didn't realize he had crossed the boundary. Turning to Faunus, he looked him straight in the eyes before dipping his head apologetically. "Sorry. I didn't notice where I was going, it's my fault, not hers. Here's your prey back." He said firmly, nudging the bird towards the older cat.

Shadowpaw smiled. "Thanks for giving it back," she meowed. "I hope you can find something on your own territory though." she growled. Then she turned to the old tom. "Don't start anything, you know that we can't have any injured cats with battle coming." she meowed grimly.

Faunus laughed. It was a rough pleasant sound and his body tembled. He stood up, still chuckling to himself, and padded out from his shelter. "Seriousily little apprentices?" he meowed happily,"I used to hunt on your territory all the time. Yes, I'm not officially a RainClan warrior and I probably have no right to this but I'm going to stand here and close my eyes. When I've counted to 10 fluffy bunnies I'm going to open them again. And do you know what I'm going to see?" He moved closer to them. His eyes twinkled mischeiviousily and it was hard to break his gaze. "The bird will be gone," he meowed, answering the question," You would of eaten it or carried it to your side of the border. Then I'm going to show you why there's no scent markings here." He closed his eyes and began counting in a loud and playful voice. "One fluffy bunny..."

Stormpaw's ear perked and his eyes widened curiously as Faunus spoke. Was it really that simple? He glanced at Shadowpaw, picking up the bird quickly. He indicated for her to follow as he nodded once to Faunus before bounding back onto their territory.

"...two fluffy bunnies, three fluffy bunnies, four fluffy bunnies," he continued to meow. He opened one to peek at what the two cats were doing. He was pleased to see that the oldest of the pair had bounded back over to his territory. He was curious to why they were had come here anyway. The Marsh was a dangerous place to be. There was a reason why RainClan didn't put scent markings here and why the paths were so overgrown with thorns. It was simply, cats die here.

Shadowpaw growled. "Why do you steal prey! You know it's agenst the warrior code!" she spat. She growled once more looking the two warriors up and down.

Stormpaw looked to Shadowpaw. "I offered it back, he said it was alright to take it." He replied, his ears flickering irratibly. Why was it such a big deal? It wasn't like he purposely meant to steal it.

Shadowpaw looked back at his friend. "Okay, lets just finish our hunting," she murmured. She padded around the trees until she spotted a mouse. She pounced, the mouse laid dead in her paws. She dug a hole and buried it.

Maplepaw and Tussockpaw's feet hit the muddy ground gently before they lept onto Faunus's back. The loner snarled playfully and shook them off. "What are you two doing here?" he growled. "We followed your scent trail," Tussockpaw explained," We wanted to practice our tracking skills." Faunus sisghed angrily. "The Marsh is out of bounds. Don't you know that? It's to easy to sink in the mud and drown. First Shadowpaw and Stormpaw and now you two." "Sorry Faunus," Maplepaw meowed apologetically," We won't come here again." "Why are you here?" Tussockpaw demanded," Why were AquaClan on our territory? Did you scare them off?" "I'm here because I'm hunting eel. I know how not to die. The AquaClan apprentices crossed the border without knowing. I told them to leave and they did."

Shadowpaw looked back with an angry gaze. I sure hate that cat. She thought. She started to walk toward camp and then tripped over a bsuh. "Hmm." she paused. "Tipical," she meowed stubbornly. She jumped back up and headed toward camp again.
