Bluetail
The she-cat could feel her mate tense beside her, but she kept on gently urging him forward one leg at a time until he started to relax slightly and move with her. Bluetail was beside him all the way, keeping a close eye on him as she got deeper and deeper into the water.

She watched his grimace disappear when the felt the water against his belly after a while. She was about to give him compliments for going so deep already, until he moved forward even more! Amazing! Only his head was above the water, and he began trying to swim but to no avail. She swam up to him, her paws leaving the pebbled bottom alot sooner than his, and she managed to tread water beside him as she spoke.

"Imagine you are walking," she offered him advice, "be aware that the water carries your weight so you feel lighter. It's a strange sensation at first, but I promise you that you'll get used to it. To swim with power, imagine you are clawing your way through the water, like you're digging a hole. Thrust your legs out in front of you, and pull them back, curling your paws underneath as you go,"

She stayed right beside him in the water, eyes watching closely.

"I won't let you drown," she said, her blue eyes serious in her promise.

Recap?)

[| valhalla |]

Pebblefrost saw her asleep, wondering about her dreams. He slipped away silently and slipped into the water; taking a quick swim. After a while he padded out and returned to her side - shortly falling into a deep sleep. He had a dream:

Pebblefrost felt the wind ruffle his pelt. He stood majestically with Clanmates by side as they waited for the battle cry. He looked down at the determined and grimaced Shadowheart. Suddenly a blinding light appeared and there stood the figure of Rainclaw, he charged with them - his enemies of the dark forest taking the apparition on with their own war raging.

End of dream.

Shadowheart rolled in her sleep and almost tumbled into Pebblefrost, but she ended up freezing right before she rolled onto him. Her right ear was flattened to her head because the right side of her head was pressed against the ground, and the other was sticking square up in the air. Her paws dangled over her body, giving her a dead appearance besides the steady rise and fall of her chest.

{{ wow guys. I'm impressed. 1 whole day and not even half a page? that's definitely a new record. }}

Darkpelt

The water sloshing up around him, reflecting the now-navy-blue sky, made Darkpelt's muscles tense. The stars that shone overhead glistened like dancing fireflies caught in motion over the gentle ripples of water. The gentle chorus of crickets and frogs around them in the reeds began to emerge into the stillness of the night.

With a deep breath, Darkpelt finally summoned the courage to do what had always seemed to be impossible. Thrusting his back paws out behind him, he plunged forward into the water. A chill ran down his spine as he found himself floating in the water, his paws just dangling above the ground. With a smile of surprise, the tom kicked out with his back legs while scooping the water with his forepaws in towards his chest.

He looked back at Bluetail, pivoting slowly with each pawstroke as he turned towards her. "I got it!" He called out, his yellow eyes bright and excited like a kit's. He wobbled up to her awkwardly, still getting used to the feeling of weightlessness the water brought on. With a little chuckle, he swung a forepaw up out of the surface to splash a few drips of water in her face.

"Bet you can't catch me!" He laughed, even though he knew very well that it was unlikely he would last two seconds against the she-cat.

Bluetail
Bluetail couldn't imagine a better night for Darkpelt to get over his fear. The waterfall created a lovely low ambience, and the crickets and frogs nearby accented it. The sky was cloudless, and all of Starclan seemed to be out tonight to watch.

Darkpelt gathered his courage, and she let out a happy cry as he took the plunge and thrust himself forward into the deeper part where surely his paws couldn't touch the pebbles on the bottom of the water. She watched him take her advice, and his voice portrayed all his excitement. His eyes were lit up with the same excitement she always felt when the opportunity to swim emerged.

"That's it Darkpelt, you're doing it! You're doing-"

Severals drops of water splashed onto her face, cutting of the rest of her sentence. Her expression was one of utter surprise, but then it changed into a playful sly one.

"Oh, so you want to play that game huh?" she said and pushed out both of her front paws to splash him.

But he had already moved off, swimming, throwing back a challenge over his shoulder.

"I bet I can!" Bluetail replied loudly and dived under the surface after a huge lungful of air. She paddled under the water toward him, and tugged on his tail. The she-cat let him go, and pushed the bottom of his hind legs up with her back to help him stay afloat. She too resurface alongside him and splashed his face successfully.

"I'm like a fish!" she laughed and wrapped her sodden forepaws around Darkpelt's neck, playfully chewing on his ear while kicking her own back legs so she stayed afloat, "om nom nom nom!"

Darkpelt

A few seconds after Bluetail plunged into the water after him, he felt a sharp tug at his tail. With a little cry he swung himself around to scan the water below him for her silhouette in the water, but it was already gone. He squinted, trying to locate the she-cat who was lurking in the depths of the water around him.

The sloshing of water made Darkpelt whip around in surprise. Bluetail was there, laughing. "I'm like a fish!" She giggled before throwing her paws around his neck. It made him stagger in the water for a moment, but he soon regained his balance. He treaded in the water easily now, and it was actually quite relaxing. He laughed as Bluetail leaned forward to nom on his ear. "Just like it." He meowed in agreement to her statement about being a fish. "A big fluffy fish."

Darkpelt licked her cheek briskly. "Maybe we should head back now. My legs are getting a little tired." He suggested.

[{ I have a new idea for Thrushcloud. She will definitely die, but I'm thinking of having her reincarnate as a very sweet apprentice. That will fall in love with Shadepelt. Because I'm guessing he will be traumatized after her death? And then little Thrushpaw will come along one day and fall in love with him all over again. }}

Wow, that's a plot right there...)
