Willowpaw streched in her den. Padding out and touching her nose to her mentors cheek in an affectionate and excited greeting. "Morning! Swimming time!!"
Stagheart chuckled at her excitement. She really was an affectionate cat, he noted; not something he was used to.
"That's right. Get yourself somethin' to eat if you haven't yet — swimmin' is hard work, you'll need your energy. Then we can head out."
He sat back and curled his tail over his paws, patiently waiting for Willowpaw to get ready. The sun indicated it was something around mid-morning, the day's heat just starting to bathe the camp clearing. Stagheart took a look around as he waited, soaking in the comforting sight of his home.

Willowpaw shook out her fur and stuck her long tail up, padding over and grabbing a fish she called. "You want one!?" As she picked up a small carp. Looking at Weepingpaw and giving him the carp, she grabbed herself a slightly larger carp and clumsy swapped prey with her brother, licking her brothers ear she padded back to her mentor. With prey in her jaws. One for her, and one for him if he said yes, if not then just one for her. Regardless. Willowpaw dropped her prey and crouched to eat it.

"Already ate — but thanks," he replied, intrigued at how thoughtful Willowpaw was. She always seemed to be looking out for others — something that both impressed him but also worried him a tad bit. Just like Berrypaw, she seemed pretty selfless. That could be great for the Clan, but also get you into trouble. As he was musing on this, he waited for Willowpaw to finish up and nodded his head.
"Alright... let's head out. We're goin' to the big river in the territory. It's a bit fast 'n strong, but we're goin' for the slower part to get you used to bein' in the water in the first place. Then we can work up from there."
He led the way into the forest, stopping by the river bank. They had passed the faster current on the way here, and now they paused where the water was just a bit slower. Still strong to give you an idea of how the river felt, but not overpowering. He sat down on the sand, waiting for Willowpaw to arrive and settle.
"Have you tried any swimmin' before?" He asked, glancing at the dark waters.
