“Ok then, let’s get going” Bloodstone nuzzled her kit enthusiastically and offered a badger ride to her kit, carrying bat kit on her back with Snowstorm trailing behind, they all padded to the river bridge and Bloodstone began by teaching her kit what she needs to do if she ever falls into a river without anyone to help her get out.
“Listen carefully because even if you can’t swim, this’ll work decently; you need to relax and let your body float to the top, and when you see something, be it a rock or a tree branch, grab it and use it as a means to get to the bank. If it’s a branch use it as a float. If it’s a rock use it to try jump closer to the bank. As for why you need to relax, is because when your mucles are limp, you float easier, try to lay on your back when you do that, like this;” Bloodstone then pretended to fall in the river and then turned into her back and released all muscle tension, in her periferal vision she saw a rock she could easily reach, and hooked her claws into it, climbing onto it and pushing off with her back legs and leaping to the bank, purposefully landing in the water, and diving her claws into the bank, and relaxing, floating into the surface, her head up, and dragging herself onto the bank. “that’s how a weak swimmer, or someone who can’t swim at all, would do this, now I want you to try, and don’t worry, I’m a strong swimmer, and if you need help I can get you.” leading her kit back up to where the bridge was, she waited for her kit to copy, ready to dive in for rescue at any second.

Batkit
Batkit nodded and leaped into the river. She looked around under the water then went onto her back and relaxed her muscles, just like her mother had said. As soon as she hit the surface, she took a breath and looked around. She was farther away now and couldn't reach the rock Bloodstone had used. Batkit was able to see a large tree branch further on that definitely couldn't be moved by a full grown warrior. One she reached it, she extended her claws into the bark and hauled herself up. Water was dripping from her pelt as she waited for her mother to reach her.

“Exilent!” Bloodstone praised her kit, she did extreamly well for the first try, “now, try leap to the nearest bank” Bloodstone noticed Snowstorm watching her and her kit.

(An Assassin's Creed fan here, got this from a trailer song for Syndicate) Sorry, but Frozenface isn't accepted. First of all, there's already a medicine cat, second, you don't have the password, and, the Clan is named Nightclan, not Furyclan. Also, Bloodclan doesn't exist in this universe. Sorry again!)
Snowstorm purred as Batkit tried swimming. "Good job!" she praised from her spot on the ledge of the Bridge.

Batkit
Batkit dipped her head to Snowstorm and leaped to the nearest bank with ease. Her muscles had become stronger due to climbing so much. She looked back to Bloodstone and said "What next?"

“Next, we learn some basic paddles” Bloodstone said before heading a little ways downstream and demonstrating a paddle with a form similar to ‘running in the water’, her ‘pawsteps’ Smooth and rithemic, holding her in place against the current. “It’s called a current tread where i’m from, and it’s used in rivers like this, but in a stronger current, you need to use a ‘torrent tread’, like this;” Bloodstone shifted her position so she was kicking her back legs and moving her front paws in deep rithemic paddles, one arm after the other(a bit more like frestyle), propelling herself forwards against the current until she swam back to the bridge and hopped out onto it between two wooden beams supporting a rail, “I want you to try that now, use your large paws to your advantage, and if you get swept back, use the method you just learnt before and try again, i’ll Still be ready to help, but I want you to do as much of this on your own as you can.” Bloodstone padded onto the river bank and back down to where she had previously dived in. “Use a current tread, then a torrent tread” Bloodstone said in a authoritive tone, the way a mentor would talk to an apprentice.

Batkit
Batkit nodded again and went into the water. Once she made it towards the middle of the river, she began to do a current tread. As her paws reached out, they were smooth and steady like her mothers, although they were quicker because of her short legs. After Batkit had done this for awhile, she shifted into a torrent tread. She swam against the current, kicking out her back legs while her front paws were working smoothly one after the other. She didn't get swept back, but she did struggle at first to get going, and she was slowly moving backwards. She put more strength into her movements and before she knew it, she was at the bridge. She clung to the bottom of the support beams where her mother waited, and climbed up skillfully once she got a hold.

Bloodstone praised her kit and said “well, I think that was enough for today. Let’s head back to camp and get you all dried up.” And she began licking her kit gently, getting rid of a few things stuck in her fur.

Lionpaw Shortee Lionpaw turned his gaze slowly to Smokefall as though it took every bit of his energy, "My sister..she thinks I'm bloodthirsty, " the words tumbled from his mouth before he realized he had said something. His voice was dull with sorrow, and his throat tightened as he spoke.

Smokefall
Smokefall looked around the cave and made sure no one else was gazing in their direction. Without saying anything, she quickly led Lionpaw out of the cave. Sitting him down, she said to him briefly, "Ivypaw thinks you're bloodthirsty..." Smokefall took in a deep breath, thinking for a moment. "Two things. Talk to her, then show her you aren't." She nodded her head as if she was satisfied with her answer. She flicked her tail, signaling for him to try it.

LionpawLionpaw nodded to what Smokefall had said, "I'll try," he meowed hastily before turning around towards where his sister had appeared from the den. His heart beat wildly in his chest as he meowed a quick "thank you" before padding towards Ivypaw, his stomach churning. Shortee

Smokefall
Smokefall smiled slightly as she saw Lionpaw stumble away. She was able to observe so much in her quiet and calm nature that she was glad to help when she could.

Ivypaw
Ivypaw's tail swished against the cave floor nervously as her brother padded towards her, is he going to confront me or something? As he got closer, she could make out a somewhat determined expression on his face despite the sorrow that seemed to cling so heavily to him. She shuffled her paws, avoiding eye contact with her sibling. Every bit of her urged her to turn away from him and exit the cave, though she held her paws firmly on the ground. Maybe he's decided to stop being so fixated on fighting! She could only hope that was what the large tom had to say.
