Murkyripple had been successful in encouraging her sister to go out on a patrol with her. It was certainly to their advantage, more often than not, of the fact that Murkyripple had her name. Firefly had just earned hers as well, and there was no doubt of the pride that she felt with her siblings getting their names. She desperately hoped that Rosepaw would be next, so at the very least most of her siblings had gotten to the point of earning their names. After all, she couldn't be the one carrying the entire set of the youngest siblings on her back. She had to make their mother proud, but she couldn't be the only one doing it. It was why she had convinced Rosepaw to go out with her by the Thunderpath, to see if they could catch a border patrol and prevent any nosy Shadowclan cats from making their way into their territory. She'd scented some other Clans around their borders lately, bothering the warrior deeply. She wasn't about to add Shadowclan to that list, either. "Let's go, Rosepaw. The Thunderpath shouldn't have many monsters this time of day." Murkyripple encouraged as they approached. Sure enough, it was dead silent, and sounded dead silent, too.
