Charcoalpaw jumped back in surprise,his fur fluffed up completely now. He shook his fur. "Swimming is for dogs!" Charcoalpaw scoffed, his tail straight up in the air.
"I think we should go back to camp," Stormclaw said. "We've covered quite a bit today, I'll show you more battle moves tomorrow." He paused. "But I think we could hunt first and bring some prey back to the Clan, don't you?"
~~~
Scratch blinked in wonder at it. It was.. Wow. So the addition to the caravan trip, Branch Pack, they called them, would soon arrive. Scratch felt his paws aching from walking so long and so far, but was set on not showing it.

"Do you want jump in? Or do you want me to push you in?" I said to him in a serious tobe, he really needed to know how to swim. "You won't become a warrior until you learn how to swim. Sunpaw already knows how, from me teaching her when she was a kit." I told him sternly, paddling along in the water.

"Oooooh, yeah. Lets do that. How about we make a game out of it though?" Like a challenge, whoever catches the most, wins.

Deliah felt as if she fain in any minute. The leoard coat queen felt as if she couldn't take another second of this.

Charcoalpaw looked at Graystripe, shaking his head. "B-but.. Not every cat needs to know how!" He protested.

Charcoalpaw nodded his shaky head thankfully. It wasn't he didn't think he didn't need to know, he probably did, but he was afraid. He was scared of drowning or.. Or..

"But... if you wanna learn but are afraid. Tell me. I'll make you a promise that I'll stay by you."

"I'm not afraid." Charcoalpaw growled, his eyes on the ground. "I'm not afraid, warriors aren't afraid. I don't want to learn."

"MMmkay...well, I think we got the basics done. We just need to start working on what you have trouble with... like hunting and those things. Now since you did sneaking really well, I'm gonna do what I promised to do. I want you sometime to sneak on the kits without waking them up." I told him, but I knew he was afraid of the water, but I don't blame him. I used to be afraid too.

(I'm not going to bother with forms for BranchPack.)

Jager lunged through a large set of rocks in the splashing waves-
Somewhat like stepping stones. Blade and Sword were in front of him.

Dagger jumped in zigg-zagg paterns on the rocks leading to the island.
She looked back to make sure Scratch was following well.
"You okay back there?" The white serval cracked a smile.

Sword was second to hop onto the island.
He quickly went after a mouse.

Blade started to make a nest for himself.

Shayde followed the two apprentices between her and jager swiftly.
It looked like she saw BranchPack's alphas coming up on the mainland.

Scratch rolled his eyes, keeping up fairly well. "I'm perfectly fine." He grinned.

((Yay! I get to bring Swike back! Whoo. xDD))

Swike wasn't the small little white pup he was before, that was for sure. He was bigger, and adult now, and followed the rest of his pack to meet with the servals for the trip to the caravans. He swear he saw another something with them.. Maybe a cat? He hadn't seen any Clanners, from any pack, for a while.

(OKAY! XD Igot a refresh.)

Dagger nodded, and leapt from the last stone to the beach of the island.
"Finally, this place doesn't look a bit different."

Jager watched the wolf pack follow from a ledge of the beach.

(LOL, I get to bring Moonfeather, Drej, Krail...)

Dredjarel was the first to start, this time across a larger set of rocks farther to the west.
His long white coat shone brilliantly in the sunlight, his green spots matched the color of the raging waves beside him.

Krail followed at a distance, looking back to the rest of the pack.

Moonfeather was at the back, following a few pups.

The two new pups were Cayanne and Tarsus, Dredjarel had found them on a morning hunt.

Cayanne laughed as the waves splashed her cinnamon coat.

Tarsus giggled, her black coat was dotted with white splotches.

Swike smiled lightly at the pups, who were laughing and giggling. He was near the back, near Moonfeather and the pups. He was now sure that gray cat, was definitly NOT a serval. Maybe.. Maybe..

Scratch watched in wonder as the pack arrived. They were.. HUGE, compared to him. He felt like the smallest one there, besides Dagger and Sword, and the two wolf pups with the pack.

Dredjarel touchedd down on the beach quickly,
cantering to turn around.
"Hello, Jager."

Jager dipped his head.
"Evening."

Krail quickly turned, his grey pelt blending with
the rocks until he lunged onto the white sand.

Cayanne quickly followed the deputy, just to tug at his ear.

Tarsus laughed, Krail was fun.

The grey wolf grunted irritably, but let them play.

Moonfeather was roughly the same size as Sword, about three inches taller.
"Cayanne, leave Krail alone! You've been bothering him the entire way here."

"Krail fun to play!'
The brown wolf pup giggled.
The two weren't exactly talking in complete sentences.

Tarsus smiled at Sword, who offered him a raven.

Swike smiled at the two pups as they bugged the deputy, just playing.
Scratch was slightly freaked by the huge dog like wolves. He was trying to keep slight distance.

(Remember Moonfeather is a reg. clan cat)

Dredjarel kept a conversation with Jager over the white she-cat's orders.
"I can see you have a new apprentice with you... but he isn't serval."

Jager nodded.
"No, he isn't bloodline family. I adopted him from the clans-
he ran away from a murderer's fate."

Dredjarel sighed.
"Those clan cats.... always fighting, hnn?"

Jager dipped his head.
"Yes, but he's following us to Egypt."

Moonfeather managed to get away for a minute-
babysitting pups was worse than training adults.
The white cat noticed a grey apprentice beside Dagger.

Dagger was munching on a mouse when Sword stuck his tounge out at her.
"Fishtail!" The serval apprentice chirped.

Sword scowled, but stayed beside Blade.

Blade eyed his daughter scornfully.
"Calm down, you two."

Shayde smiled at Moonfeather.

Krail was annoyed with the kits, but kept them entertained.
Thankfully their teeth weren't sharp yet- otherwise he wouldn't have an ear.

Scratch grinned at Sword, not being able to help himself. He noticed Moonfeather with the rest of the wolves, and curious raised an eyebrow. Hm, another clan-cat? Well at least he wasn't compeltely alone.

Scratch smiled slightly, still unsure.
"Hi," He said, forcing his gray and tan striped fur to lay flat,

Scratch nodded.
"I guess I am. My name's Scratchp- Scratch. Just Scratch."

Scratch nodded.
"What Clan did you come from?"

"Huh." Scratch replied.
He'd never heard of any Clan named that. Maybe the world was bigger then they thought.
"I came from a Clan called BoneClan."

Scratch wanted to shiver at hearing her name.
He wanted to block every thought of her out. Lock it up in a little box.
"Yes, she's still leader. On her last life though."
