Featherstar came to the bank of the Sparkling River. The moonlight shone on the water, making her reflection look ghostly. She turned her head around and waited for Forestfire. Hunting would be good tonight, so she wanted to get a good start. She licked her paw and moved it over he ears in a grooming way. The scent of water vole waded up her nose. She would have to wait, though. She wanted her deputy to have a chance.

Behind some loud bushes, Forestfire had also scented the watervole. He crouched and pinpointed it. He crept forwards oh-so quietly and then he pounced on it. He killed it with a swift btie to the neck. He then grabbed it by the back and leapt over the bushes. He nearly landed on Featherstar, but he changed courses mid-flight and landed beside her, vole-in-jaw.

The she-cat nodded signaling it was a good catch. She peered over across the river. It was just barely their territory, but it still was their's. She waded across the water and got to the other side. She pinpointed a mouse, scrabling among pines. She crept up on it and killed it. She flung it across the river, just barely making it.

Wanting to impress his leader further, he followed her move on the other side of the River; she really was a good hunter. As she swished her head to fling the kill to their large plot of copse, Forestfire leapt into the air and caught the prey in his mouth; barely managing not to land belly-up in the river.

"Good job." Featherstar purred. Her deputy was showing fine work. She was going to praise him for that.

Forestfire new he was acting like a kit; but he basked in Featherstar's warm praise. Then he straightened up and opened his mouth and ears to feel for any other prey. He crouched low to the ground and started stalking off towards the bushes, stopping every few tail-lengths to make sure he was still invisible to the prey. A few moments after he dissapeared behind the bushes, a came back with a gray squirrel.

The new leader nodded again. Without thinking, she raced into SunClan territory. She came back moments later with two mice dangling from her jaws. She set them down in the pile they made. "Just a few more to go and we can return home." She told her deputy.

Forestfire's eyes widened as Featherstar raced into SunClan's territory. He hissed, "Featherstar! We could get into serious trouble if your caught doing that!" His ginger eyebrows were raised in confusion and misunderstanding, well what he hoped to be misunderstanding.

"Well, what do we have here?" hissed Dawnstar padding out of the bushes she was hiding in. "Intruders?". Dawnstar sat down calmly and started to wash herself stopping to glare at the two ShimmerClan cats. "What do you think you're doing here?" she continued narrowing her eyes until they were thin little slits. "Stealing prey? Or maybe spying?". Dawnstar got up slowly and went towards the two cats her fur bristling making her look two times bigger. *Heh....*
*Yay!*

Featherstar gasped. She looked up at the older(?) leader. "I-I'm sorry. We were on a hunting patrol and I haven't been here in a while. I forgot how close we were to the boarder. I hope you can forgive me, Dawnstar. I ment you no harm." She dipped her head in respect.

"Wle? You're ShimmerClans new leader right?" she asked her anger fading slowly away. "Well, since you didn't mean any harm I will let you go this time. But if this happens one more time..." sh e hissed. Even though the word were friendly she hissed them through bared teeth. Dawnstar turned around to get back to camp and to tell her Clan that they would increase the border patrols for ShimmerClan borders.

As the SunClan leader faded away, Featherstar uttered a low hiss. Only she and Forestfire could here it. "C'm on. Let's get back to camp." She picked up two mice and the vole and headed back to camp.

As Dawnstar padded away from the two cats she heard something. She pricked her eaers trying to make out what they were saying but she was to far away. Uttering something to herself she ran back to camp her eyes narrowed in anger. *ROAR!!*
*To SunClan camp!!*
