Perimeter check!
* Event for today!
Fennel has requested each camper spend a little extra time making sure there's nothing out of the ordinary going on around camp. Ever since the fire happened, the campers have all been stuck in that stinky twoleg den and camp has been a lot more.. empty. It's better we all be safe.

Swallowflight all but purred as Cliff and Birchmist described the days itinerary to the campers. The young warrior thinking cheerfuly to himself "We are going to fish today! I loved fishing!".

He noticed that some of the other campers were not as exited at the prospect of fishing as he was. A small brown tabby tom and a curly furred cream tortoiseshell she cat were whispering disappointedly between themselves.

Once they all arrived at the lake, everyone began splitting off into smaller groups. Swallowflight was about to slip away on his own when he saw the two younger cats hanging back. He sighed to himself then walked over to them.

" HI my name is Swallowflight, I noticed yall don't seem to keen on fishing. Is everything alright?" He asked once he reached them.

" Oh um, hi Swallowflight. I'm Rootpaw and this is Daisypaw." The small tom responded. " and, well, I don't know how to swim."

"And my fur gets tangled when it gets wet so I avoid water." Daisypaw added.

"Well I can't fix your fur getting tangled Daisypaw, but i can teach you to swim Rootpaw."  Swallowflight offered. " and you can watch and talk with me while I teach him Daisypaw."

The two apprentices jumped at the opportunity. After all it sounded a lot more fun than sitting alone watching everyone else have fun.
Swallowflight spent most of the time at the lake teaching Rootpaw to swim and telling the two stories about Grove Clan.
He was just about to get out of the water and dry off when something glittered under the water.

"Wow what's that !?" Daisypaw shouted from her spot in the shady reeds.

"Get it! Get it!" Rootpaw cheered as he climbed out of the water.

Swallowflight turned and dove for the drifting shine under the water ......

After a while Swallowflight got an odd feeling, like prickles in his pelt. He decided to split off from the group and check the area.

He was halfway through making a wide semi circle around the other campers when an odd smell caught his attention...

Art/Blurb 1: Okay this time he would do it he would catch the biggest fish in the entire world. He was confident today he was gonna do it… after he took a nice bath in the water. Who said he couldn’t relax a little before he did his work. The fish weren’t going anywhere he had all the time in the world to catch a large fish.

After catching a fair number of fish, Sunshore and Zahrek took a break, looking out over the lake. Together, the pair chatted for a while about all the different fish they had seen, and wondered if there was, somewhere in the inky depths, a massive catfish or some other creature, waiting and lurking out of sight. After getting thoroughly scared at the thought, the pair returned to stalking through the shallows for the next fish, hoping to find a big carp in the weeds!

[These bears seem... Different? From the ones we saw before. Their faces look different.]

Sunshore blinked; Zahrek had a point, although they had been much more concerned with avoiding the largest of the bears, smelling of milk and presumably the parent of the smaller bears.
"Well, if Stonespeaker Deerpuzzle is to be believed, the bears we've seen were from countless years before the time we're in now; maybe the bears we saw earlier changed somehow?" they offered, as Zahrek took the chance to look around.

[Maybe... Maybe so. Not all hatchlings look like their parents, after all. Maybe they changed through the generations,] the pterosaur mused. [I wonder what my nest-siblings' flaplings will look like, all these years later...]

Sunshore just looked away. They didn't have the heart to say anything.

Well, the campers surely flew out of the frying pan into the fire, with a family of bears claiming part of their lake and now an unknown assailant burning down camp. He was quite disappointed he wasn't cooking up beaver kebabs right about now, but perhaps it was for the best as he's heard his fair share of tales of beavers giving cats nasty bites with those long front teeth of theirs. For now, after a long stretch from being stuck in the cabin for too long, he resigned himself to doing what he did best in silently observing his surroundings, setting Hawksbeard loose like a dog to sniff about the burnt floor of camp. Occasionally, he'd pad over to some rubble to shift it around with his paws, the soot dissipating under his toes. Lionbloom yawned, bored, until Hawksbeard crowed, shaking the whole forest, and started digging a large hole in the ground.

Suspicious, Lionbloom immediately made his way to his companion's side, only to find some old bones that the bird happily gnawed on, clacking them in his beak with determination. He simply shrugged and sat by the upturned dirt pile.

Haywing is fast, and he hadn’t exactly been trying to catch fish for very long at all before deciding to investigate the disappearance for himself. He’s quick enough to catch up to the cats who’d set out to investigate first thing, bringing up the rear and joining in with their irritated and confused grumblings. The idea of otters, minks, other such creatures still circles in his brain, and he’s ready for that-

So to say he’s caught off guard when they instead encounter a live, gigantic mother bear would be an understatement.

He makes it back to camp first, alerting the other campers and counselors for Birchmist. There were bears nearby. They’d have to share the fish for now.

He goes back to his fishing, and at least he has another large fish to show for it in the end. It was a frazzling day, but this more than makes up for it.
–
He returns to the lake days later, after an even more frazzling day. He… well, he can put it bluntly. He is not feeling his best after the fire scare yesterday, and he’s still a little shaken now.

For the first time since he’s gotten here, he truly misses home.

Maybe fishing would calm his nerves. He hopes so. He kind of doesn’t expect to catch more than a small fish in this state, and besides, it’d match to the pattern. Large fish, small fish, medium fish, loop back around again. He hopes he’s at least competent enough to not get trash. Maybe he’d be lucky and get a large fish again? Strengthen his spirits? But overall, he doubts it.

Heatherstar isn't a wise cat by any means. In fact, Haywing knows he's just a normal cat, stuck in a little over his head with the whole leadership thing. Oh, there was definitely a reason he'd been chosen by the stars, Haywing wouldn't go so far as to deny that - but the point was, he knows Heatherstar isn't always the wisest.

Still, he'd been on to something in the way he'd divided up jobs, and made Haywing messenger rather than hunter or scout. Of course, perhaps it was his loss for not making Haywing a hunter too, if his fish catching streak was anything to go by - but the point was, he hadn't been made a scout. It wasn't his job to look for things, to be the first set of eyes to notice when something was out of the ordinary. It was his job to take whatever information scouts found, and run back to camp with it. Simple.

Still, it couldn't hurt to check the perimeter before settling down, especially if the camp counselors were asking. He makes a loop around the lake, keeping his eyes peeled... but mostly he just expects to find the perfect place to settle down and fish, nothing much more than that.

The waters here were becoming almost as known as the waters back home for Crowcall, as his fishing trips were becoming steady, consistent. There was skill to back up his crowing after all it seemed! Then again, there had to be a reason he was the one chosen to come here right? And not just to get him out of everyone's fur for a time? Either way, both his confidence and his fish pile were growing daily. He had brought in another whopper, another point for his team. Beat THAT other teams! Ricotta was the best! HA!

...Okay so they currently were in last place but with his help they would change that! So he stalked up to the waters again, crouching down and preparing himself one more time. "Come and get me fish! Neener neener neener!" Hey if the method wasn't broke, don't fix it!

FEH. Crowcall was not pleased at being stuck for 'safety reasons' inside a twoleg den. Cats belonged in the wold! Hunting! Fishing! Being alive! So when the call for perimeter checks came he was one of the first to volunteer and nearly tripped over his own tail to do so. "MEMEME!" He shouted, flailing his paws about to ensure he was heard AND seen. He was not missing this chance after all! No way!

So stretching his legs, he set out to take a look-see. Smelling things to ensure no weird scents lingered, twitching his ears here and there, looking upon the ground. The works! "Come out come out wherever you aaaaare," he sang, tail idly swishing behind him. "Are you a coward? Fiiiiight me!" He put on an intimidating dance (or one he thought was intimidating anyways!) before with a groan heading back. This thing better show itself soon, he was dying here!

"And then I noticed it was a raccoon!" Tiger exclaimed. "Fishy, it was so much bigger than I expected! I was so scared. Of course I reported it to Fennel, I'm not insane!"

Fishy swirled around, as if he was telling Tiger something.

"Yes, Fennel sent someone to keep an eye on the raccoon." Tiger said, shaking her head. "Fishy, you come up with the weirdest questions-" Tiger grabbed a small fish that was swimming away, and put it in the fish basket.

"-I don't know where you get them from." Tiger finished. She saw the look on Fishy's face. "Sorry, but we have to eat fish to live."
Fishy looked alarmed, again.

"Not you!" Tiger groaned. "The ones that are, uh, less-friendly." Fishy's swirled again.

"I wouldn't eat your family members, Fishy" Tiger said. Fishy swirled. "I know who they are because they.. look like you?"

Fishy rolled his eyes.

"Fishy, have you seen anything around the ocean?" Tiger asked. "Anything suspicious?"

Fishy swirled. "Only the capybaras?" Tiger questioned. "Oh. Then, will you help me look a bit more?" Fishy swam up and down.

The two began swimming around, looking for intruders, but they didn't find anything.

"Oh well!" Tiger said, swimming up, onto land. "Thanks for trying. See you later!"

Tiger waved to Fishy as he swam away.
