Waterclan
Waterclan cats are very friendly and helpful. They welcome guests and forgive easily. This clan cares deeply about every cat in the clan and respects them. They have rules they live by and it shows. They eat whenever they want but queens, elders and the medicine cat must be fed before the cats can eat. They find that it is their duty to provide enough food for their loved ones, yet there is always an abundance of food. Waterclan cats mainly eat fish, lizards and frogs, but on the odd occasion they will have a few mice or birds on the fresh-kill pile. See Waterclans rules in spoiler below:

Meadowclan
Meadowclan lacks rules and is very hostile towards trespassers. Cats in the clan do not respect others and are often seen not caring for their elders. However, a few young cats are very friendly to all and help the other cats. Fresh-kill is eaten twice a day and there is an order of eating. Leader and deputy eats first with their chosen cats. Then the warriors eat. Hunters, elders, queens and apprentices are left to eat the remaining prey. Hunters do, secretly, eat while hunting. Queens sometimes complain but are punished for their lack of gratitude, their mates, if they are caring, sneak food to them at night. Their prey consists of rabbits, mice, birds. Prey such as lizards and fish are more rare, frogs are never hunted.

Chapter 1

Brackenpaw
Remember, focus and patience helps a lot. A young brown tabby tom took a deep breath and leaned over a river, casting a shadow. Fish swam nearby but seemed to avoid his place. After a few moments, the tom became agitated and launched himself into the water. The fish scattered as the tom struggled in the river. He headed for the shore and flopped onto it gratefully. Three she-cats sat nearby, one of them sighing deeply. A white tabby she-cat stands up and leans over the tom. "Brackenpaw, you mustn't cast shadows remember. And you must learn patience. Other wise your going to find yourself empty pawed after every hunting patrol," the she-cat mewed gently. "Its easier to catch land prey, can't i just do that?" The tom stnands up and shakes his fur, wettng the others. Once again the white tabby sighed and murmured, "Starclan, give me the patience." Louder she meowed, "We are called Waterclan for a reason. The river runs through our territory and we hunt what is in it. Now, lets go further up the river." She starts to walk away and the two other she-cats follow.
The youngest, a ginger tabby, slows down and pads beside Brackenpaw. "You know, Ivytrendril was just trying to help, you could of been nicer and not wet all of us." She mews and Brackenpaw snorts. If thats her trying to rebuke me, it's not ganna work! "Shut up, Lakepaw. You were only apprenticed 3 moons ago, I have been apprenticed for five moons." He puffs out his chest and looks down at the smaller cat. "Which means you should be a better hunter!" Little Lakepaw squeals as Brackenpaw pushes her over. "Hey, shut up. I won't hurt you," He mews and presses his paws against the younger cats chest. Lakepaw lays on her back, breathing heavily, she stops her struggling and yowling. He grabs her scruff in his jaws and drags her into a few bushes. Brackenpaw leans his face closer to hers. "Now, you be a good cat and show me the hunters crouch." He mews in a mocking voice. Lakepaw follows his orders, and Brackenpaw walks around her. By now the other two she-cats were way ahead. Brackenpaw licks Lakepaws head and purrs. "Perfect, now do the front paw sla-" he stops suddenly as the bushes near by tremble and part. Brackenpaw growls as a she-cat, bout his age, steps neatly out of the bushes.

She looks around and looks at Brackenpaw up and down. Brackenpaw growls loudly while Lakepaw hids behind him. "What are you doing here! This is Waterclan territory!" He bunches his muscles ready to spring an attack. The she-cat in front of him bows her head and pads forwards, her light ginger pelt shining. Why is she so pretty!? Brackenpaw finds that he can not attack the pretty cat.
The ginger cat stops in front of him and sits down. "It seems that you are on Meadowclans territory. Look around, do you usually see cats hunting rabbits on your territory?" He looks around in dismay, realizing she was right. Yowling echo nearby and the she-cat tenses. "Thats my clanmates! You must go now, or they'll rip you to shreds!" She mews wide-eyed and nudges Brackenpaw. Brackenpaw looks past the bushes and sees a black tabby and a brown tabby racing towards them. Struck by fear he freezes, so the ginger she-cat nudges Lakepaw to their own side. Lakepaw leaps into a bush in Waterclan territory and watches wide-eyed as the strange cat starts batting Brackenpaw lightly. "Quickly! Get onto your side!" Brackenpaw seems to wake up and races into the bush where Lakepaw is.
Turning swiftly, he looks back at the pretty she-cat. "Wait, whats your name!?" He mews to her. The she-cat doesn't look behind her, but mumbles, "I am Breezepaw. Breezepaw of Meadowclan. Who are you?" Brackenpaw whispers, "Brackenpaw of Waterclan."
Brackenpaw whips around and runs towards his clans camp with Lakepaw by his side.
They end up crashing into three more cats, luckily from his own clan. "Oh hi, Rainclaw, Hollysplash and Icepaw!" He squeaks before walking away, trying not to be obvious. Lakepaw mews hello and follows Brackenpaw. "Lakepaw. Listen, you mustn't tell Snakestar about that. Got it?" He doesn't wait for an answer, but storms off in his usual manner. But the scene of the pretty she-cat played in his mind.

Chapter 2
Breezepaw
Breezepaw follows two older cats from her clan. She held a rabbit in her jaw and was padding with a smug expression. Flowerstem only caught a mouse, and Thrushpelt caught a little bird that was already injured! A bramble thicket loomed ahead and the cats increase their pace. Her mother, Flowerstem, enter with the other two cats hot on her tail. Breezepaw drops her rabbit on the fresh-kill pile and races up to a ginger tom. "Flamestar! Guess what! I caught a rabbit!" She mews enthusiastically. Flamestar purrs distractedly and licks her head. "Great work Breezepaw. I can see that your mothers and my blood flowing in you already." Breezepaw puffed out her chest in pride and nuzzled her father lovingly. Flamestar nudges her away saying, "You might as well leave me in peace now." Breezepaw's tail drops and she pads away to her den. Her den, a thorn bush with a clearing inside, was near the camp entrance. She enters it and finds her den mate, Leafpaw, sleeping inside. Leafpaw and Breezepaw weren't littermates but both she-cats who were a bit regected in the clan. Feeling tired and numb, Breezepaw lays down besides her friend. She closes her eyes and dreams of catching squirrels and rabbits for her clan...

"Breezepaw, wake up! Flamestar just said it's time to eat," Someone mews into her ear. She startles awake, only to find a black and brown she-cat standing over her. "Already? How long have I been sleeping, Leafpaw?" Leafpaw sighs, "Oh never mind that! Lets hurry up and get something, or do you want to starve again?" Not waiting for an answer, Leafpaw races away. Breezepaw yawns and follows her denmate, only to be intercepted by a brown tabby. "Hey Breezepaw. Listen, Branchleaf and Cloudpelt are starting to look thin. We need to keep some food for them today, especially Cloudpelt, shes close to kitting!" The cat whisper yells and a few cats glare at him. "Okay, I'll hide some when I eat and we can deliver it later. Now shut up, Thistlepaw, before everyone hears!" Breezepaw pads away and sits near the fresh-kill pile. Flamestar stands with his deputy, Grasspelt. After all the cats have sat down, the ginger leader rises to his paws and growls, "Is time to eat. Remember your places, orelse you will be punished." He flicks his tail towards a grey she-cat who bore a large scar at her ear. Breezepaw suddered as she remembered how the she-cat had got it. Flamestar was furious at me because I didn't catch anything, and he made my punishment very clear. Mousewhisker was injured, because of me... Breezepaw found her self clawing at the ground, ruining the soft clovers. Focusing on the present, she forces herself to look up at watch calmly as FLamestar, Grasspelt, Flowerstem and Littleclaw approched the pile and took the fattest prey. Then advanced the warriors, who shared a mouse and rabbit between the themselves. Finally it was the hunters, queens, elders and apprentices turn. Cloudpelt, a queen, walked up to the pile and grabbed a thrush, growling at Shadowpaw who tried to take it. Shadowpaw snarled back, but had more sense and turned back to the pile. Two mice and a rabbit leg was left. Quickly, Thistlepaw grabbed a mouse and retreated. Shadowpaw and Leafpaw shared the rabbit leg, while the elder padded up to eat the last mouse. Breezepaw hung back, happy that Brachleaf would eat well, but annoyed that she would go hungry. Just as Branchleaf opened his jaw to take a bite, Flamestar howled in anger. He stormed up to Branchleaf and swiped his paw across the old toms face. "How dare you leave my kit to starve!" He breathed the words dangerously low, before swiping the mouse over to Breezepaw. "Breezepaw. Eat it!" He growled then walked away to sit back with his mate. Breezepaw swallowed nervously as all eyes turned to her. Knowing she would be punished if she didn't eat, she took a small bite from the prey. It was warm and fresh, but the flesh left a foul taste in her mouth. She couldn't bare knowing that she had taken the elders food from him. Glancing quickly up, she pushed the mouse into a fern patch. Yawning she headed back for her den and watched as the other cats did the same. "Well that went well," Leafpaw exclaimed as she enters the den. Breezepaw only growls in reply. Perking her ears she strained to hear her father. "Thistlepaw, you can guard tonight!" His voice carries easily to her. Breezepaw smiled and purred as her father pads by and enters his own den. The gentle snoring of her clanmates almost lure her awake, but she struggles against it.

Guard: Smokefur

Chapter 3

Brackenpaw

Brackenpaw listened attentively as his clans fell asleep around him. His ears perked for the sound of Smokefur, the cat on guard. Come on Smokefur, go use the dirt place! As if the warrior had heard his thoughts, Smokefur scans the clearing before heading towards a thorn patch. Happily, Brackenpaw sneaks out of camp.
The smell of blood tanges the air and Brackenpaw finds himself purring. The body of a mouse hangs limply in his jaws as he pads towards a fern patch. The tom munches happily on the freshkill, relishing the taste. After gulping the mouse down, Brackenpaw finds himself parting his jaws, wanting to scent another mouse. A familiar scent lays across his tongue but it smells more feline then the fragments of prey. Silently, Brackenpaw starts stalking towards the smell, cautious and curious.
A shape of a young cat is outlined against the faint light of the moon. A soft sound drifts past him and he realizes that the cat was mewing. Creeping closer, Brackenpaw hears a few of the words. "-It soundn't be. It never works out!" Brackenpaw smiles and purrs softly. That voice, was the sound of Breezepaw. Brackenpaw steps boldly out of hiding and Breezepaw startles. In the dim moonlight, Breezepaw appears to prettier than before, If thats even possible! Breezepaw smiles shyly at the tom before dipping her head ever so slowly. Brackenpaw puffs out his chest and flexes his muscles, making Breezepaw look away blushing.
...
"Meet here again tonight?" The brown tabby asks as he and the Meadowclan cat awake. Sunlight pours though the branches above, dappling the two apprentices coats. Breezepaw shakes out her pelt before replying, "Mousebrain. Tonights the gathering, we will see eachother then. We should get going now." Brackenpaw nods slightly before racing away.

Season: Bare-leaf (winter)
Time: Morning
Weather: Sorta warm and breezy
Events: Cats are getting ready to patrol. The gathering is tonight
Hunting patrol: Mosspelt, Creekstone and Snakestar
Border patrol: Ashpelt, Rainclaw and Icepaw

By the time Brackenpaw gets back to camp, his clan mates are awake. Waterclan's deputy, Ashpelt, stands importantly at the base of high rock. The toms grey fur moves gently in the breeze that stirs though the camp. A crowd of cats circle around their deputy, and Brackenpaw joins them.
"Creekstone and Mosspelt, you two can go on a hunting patrol with Snakestar. Rainclaw and Icepaw, come with me on a border patrol. Lakepaw, Pebblefang wants you to collect some tansy. Go to her for further instructions. The rest of you should chose someone to guard. Remember though, Lilystem and Brookfur need to be given freshkill, Brackenpaw, go catch three pieces of prey to share among the elder, queen and yourself."
Brackenpaw nods quickly and races out of the camp. He liked hunting for Lilystem, as she preferred to eat land prey like himself. Brookfur, however, was harder to please. The grouchy old she-cat seemed to dislike everything except frogs, and those were a challenge for Brackenpaw. Padding softly to the river, he spots a fat frog almost straight away. Crouching, he stalks towards it. Wriggling his haunches, he pouches. But misses. The frog plops into the water with a splash. Frustrated he claws up the grass and growls. Padding further up the river, he spots a few more. All without success. Finally he ends up catching one, and he heads back to camp. On his way, he kills a rabbit that strayed from the moor and a thrush that had been trying to catch its own prey. Jaw full, he enters camp. He drops the frog off at Brookfur's paws and delivers the rabbit to Lilystem, who is overjoyed and surprised at the catch. Brackenpaw remembers her words as he himself devours the thrush he catch earlier.
Just as Brackenpaw finishes the bird, the hunting patrol returns. As Snakestar drops his prey on the fresh-kill pile, Lilystem intercepts him. The two glance at Brackenpaw as they talk and he finds himslef shrinking as Snakestar pads over. Relieved, the apprentice notices that his leader looks happy. "Brackenpaw, my mate says that you caught her a rabbit today. Her favourite prey. I think it is time for your assessment." Brackenpaw gapes at him shocked as the older tom call Ivytendril over. Worridly, his mentor pads over. "Is everthing okay?" She asks quietly. Snakestar purrs, "I think its time your apprentice has his warrior assessment. If he passes, I think we should make him a warrior in time for tonights gathering."

Chapter 4

Breezepaw
The gathering was cramped. The small meeting place was teaming with cats from both clans. Breezepaw didn't know what to do and who to talk to. Shadowpaw and Thistlepaw were boasting to a wide eyed she-cat about how they fought a fox a few sunrises ago by themselves. The white she-cat, Icepaw, was gasping and staring at the toms with a doe eyed expression. Snorting with amusement, Breezepaw looks around for Leafpaw. Pebblefang and Gingerfur are already talking to her so she stands up and wanders around the clearing. Cowfur and Scareye talk casually to Rainclaw from Waterclan, while Thrushpelt talks to two she-cats, telling them about a rabbit he caught that morning. The leaders were discussing prey, while the deputy's from both clans argued about who had better apprentices. Branchleaf and Brookfur complain loudly in a corner about how slack and lazy apprentices are getting. Branchleaf catches Breezepaws eye and mumbles quickly, "But not all apprentices."
Purring with amusement, Breezepaw pads back to Shadowpaw and Thistlepaw. Shadowpaw argues with a tabby tom that he is a much better fighter, and Breezepaw can't see who it is because they face away. The topic becomes heated and there is suddenly a tension in the air around them. Shadowpaw is the first to react, swiping a paw at the tom.
Breezepaw gasps as she sees the opponents face. Brackenpaw! She resists the urge to tackle Shadowpaw by clawing at the ground. Luckily, Brackenpaw dodges and knocks the other tom over with a swipe of a paw. Thistlepaw then interveanes and leads his brother away. "Come on Shadowpaw. Lets go talk to Icepaw and Lakepaw." The two toms past Breezepaw as she heads to Brackenpaw. "Brackenpaw, are you alright?" The brown tabby startles and steps back from her. "Oh, hi Breezepaw. Don't call me that anymore," he mumbles with a hint of pride. Breezepaw gasps, "Don't tell me you're a hunter now!" Brackenpaw nods happily and licks her cheek. "It's Brackenfern now!" The light ginger she-cat purrs and rubs her head against the toms shoulder. "Thats great!" Before the two can continue talking, Snakestar yowls for attention. The two pad to the forming circle and sit down together.
