Mothflower sat in the middle of camp. She had just sent off the dawn patrol- consisting of Cedarleg, Rainflower, and Ashstripe- and was now organizing the rest of the day's patrols. "
Teasleclaw, Buzzardcloud and Acornheart. I want you three to head out on a hunting patrol after the dawn patrol returns." she meowed to three warriors, the slightly-stern tone in her voice telling the two warriors by the fresh-kill pile that they should be nearer to get their orders, "
At sun-high, Deerfur, Mudwhisker and myself will leave on the next patrol."
All the warriors had been given tasks at this point. everyone was to get a second round of what-to-do's. "
The dusk patrol will be Teasleclaw, Mudwhisker and Deerfur. A hunting patrol after the sun-high patrol will be Buzzardcloud, Rainflower and Ashstripe." the red tabby she-cat meowed, "
I will lead another patrol at moon-high, taking Cedarleg and Acornheart with me." The deputy flicked her tail dismissively, though if anyone had questions, she would answer them.

Deerfur, who had been on the moon-high patrol last night, stifled a yawn as he listened to Mothflower's orders. Sun-high and dusk patrol? Sounded good to him. '
Maybe I can squeeze myself into a hunting patrol or something at some point..' he pondered to himself, wanting to get out and do some hunting eventually. His long tail flicked behind him as he rose to his paws, heading away to look for something to do in the meantime.
