Fun in the Sun

[Bread]

Duckpaw's ears pricked up as she heard what would partake in the event. She waddled a bit closer, eager to hear more. Wow, the apprentice thought, this could most definitely help with my training too. Without any hesitation, she bounced over to the starting mark and lined up with the others. For Duckpaw, this wasn't about winning, it was more about having fun for her, but if she did win that would be the extra cherry on top of the ice cream.

Flyfur sucked at swimming because of her long fur but she was certainly participating. She did well during the Elite Testing, so maybe luck would follow her here. However, this one was just for fun and friendly competition always did good for one.
(*I'd like prompts just because it seems fun)

[MEAT ANGELS]

Doefeather has been lounging along the river, wondering where all the friends she assumed she’d made were, until the call of the “great and glorious” Lionstar distracted her. A challenge? Well, she wasn’t the best at those.... maybe just to try! She could.. do it? It was a mystery....
Thoughts jumbled, a mentally-exhausted Doefeather made her way over to the large body of water, sparkling in the dazzling sunlight. Sharp rays of were dancing across the river in waves, reflecting everything. Like the leader barking out instructions she should be listening to. “just my luck... I’ll probably be the first one out.”

Oakflames ears perked and a smile appeared when Lionstar had called for riverclans attention. A competition? It caught his interest quickly. The tom stood up and made his way over to the growing group of cats who would be lead into the territory. A swimming competition! He thought once Lionstar had explained the whole competition. Of course-- he should've expected that it was going to be something related to swimming. It was riverclan after all.
He slipped past a few cats , although may have accidentally shoved one or two , and lined up. He looked to the right of him , then the left of him. Oof. There were quite a few cats he would be going up against , some of them being apprentice. Well , all is fair in war. He thought. This wasn't really a war , but it was close enough since some people could be dangerously competitive.

Morningmeadow strolled over to the where everyone was lining up to line up. Hmm... i could probably do ok in this... she mumbled to herself...

"Ehh, more swimming practice wouldn't hurt." Sparrowpaw thought out loud as he walked over to line up.

[That Key in the Tree]

(* cause why not?)
Hollywatcher twitched her ears. What was this about now?... a race? Oh this was going to be fun! It was something different so why not join in? She trotted over to the line.

A game?! For the whole Clan!? That sounded so fun! A swimming game. Petuniapaw couldn't imagine a better way to spend her time. Having fun with Clanmates? Who would pass that up? It would be amazing and fun and just great!
Tail waving above her Petuniapaw bounced over to the gathering group of warriors and apprentices. She recognized some of them but honestly the bi colored tabby didn't know many of them. See, she needed stuff like this to get to know cats. "Hi everyone!" She chirped, amber eyes brightly scanning over the cats around her.

[Shade.]

Lotusheart lined up to the markers, excitement gleaming in her big yellow eyes. She really enjoyed swimming and couldn't wait for it to start.

Rainsplash sat out of the event, feeling too guilty of his recent incompetence to take advantage of this event's rest time.

Stingpaw approches the gathering group. Swimming huh. A challenge for sure. Hailfang didn’t teach him enough to be very confident but how hard could it be? Paddle your paws with long sweeps and bring them back close to your body and sweep once again. Shouldn’t be that difficult, even if he didn’t win. He wanted to try.

( Prompts for him please * )
