Whinterpaw's boarder patrol.

Featherfall walked over to the apprentice's den and stuck her head inside. "Whinterpaw?" She called.

"Yes?" Whinterpaw went outside the apprentice's den and padded up to Featherfall.

She smiled. "Today, we're going on a boarder patrol. Come along." Featherfall said beckoning with her tail towards the entrance of camp.

Whinterpaw followed alongside Featherfall.

"Which boarder should we go to? The RiverClan or ShadowClan?" She asked the apprentice.

Whinterpaw thought for a moment."RiverClan border" he meowed.

"Ok then." She smiled. "Lets go. Now I want you to be extra cautious. You have never smelt RiverClan, so you won't know where the boarder is, and I don't want you wondering onto their territory. Stay behind me the whole time." She said, emphasizing behind.

Whinterpaw nodded and stayed behind Featherfall obediently.

Featherfall nodded approvingly. "Thank you. It's for your safety." They passed through the trees, and Feather guided them diligently. When they reached the boarder she stopped abruptly and put her tail on Whinterpaw's shoulder. "Okay, get a big sniff, this is what RiverClan smells like." The river sparkled only a few feet away.

Whinterpaw took a big sniff of RiverClan scent. "It smells very fishy..." he commented.

She nodded. "Yes it does. Now watch me, then do it yourself." Featherfall approached the boarder, and marked it, then walked back to Whinterpaw. "Your turn." She said.

Whinterpaw copied Featherfall, went close to the border, marked it and went straight back to Featherfall.

"Very good! You'll be doing that on the boarder most the time." She said. The sun wasn't but mid high. "Eeh, I think we have time to get to the ShadowClan boarder and back to camp before dark. What do you think?" She said.

"Yes." Whinterpaw nodded and bounded up to Featherfall following her to the ShadowClan border.

"You won't need to stay to behind me this time, you'll be able to smell ShadowClan from fox-lengths away." She said with a mrrow of laughter. She led them through the trees, sniffing her and there. They reached the ShadowClan boarder not to long later, the sun a little farther down. She screwed up her face. "Smell it?" She asked Whinterpaw.
