Jerking his way through the waters, Impaledtail splashed his now dirty paws through the gross marshes. It seemed like eternity since he actually put his paws into something else other than dry land, and not just the type in the forest, but the type in the desert. It felt good for him to once again see how a liquid felt like.
Quickly, the tom twisted his neck in a 90 degree formation, making a small but noticeable crack. Shaking the pain off, he continued on, looking for anything he could devour. The only thing that even came out at this time of day was a robin, chirping endlessly through time.
"Alright, forget it, you're coming down." Impaledtail said to himself as he slowed down to get ready to get the piece of vermin. It wasn't far off, just about 15 foxlengths south-southeast of him. Now the other way, he began to sniff the prey's scent, getting it's exact location. Finding it, he saw it was through some strings of tall grass, jumping around for no apparent reason. Crouching downward, the cat moved toward the robin, at a rather fast pace.

(Mind if I post Hawkflower, the deputy of Riverclan walked outside of camp, after waking up. She stretched her legs out, and yawned, showing a pink tongue and yellowish teeth. She blinked her neon green eyes, and twitched her ears slightly. Then she noticed Impaledtail hunting by himself. She silently padded towards him, through the wet river. She liked the feel of the river, the flowing water flowing over her paws, the crisp cool tempature, and the yummy fish. She walked out of the river, and shoke her paws dry, and squated down, pressing her body to the ground. She turned around, facing the river, and shot her paw into the river, grabbing a fish out. She lunged on top of it, and killed it with one quick bite. She grabbed her fish and began padding back to camp, her tail swishing gently in the wind.

Muttering under his breath, he started to chase after the vermin. Moving as fast as he could, he jumped over the marshes & pools of swamp water, even though it seemed like they moved in front of him again and again. However, at some point before his claw reached the robin, the angles of a couple of branches were put into a point where Impaledtail wasn't capable of overpowering. By cause of the branches, Impaledtail caught his legs between a hole and tripped over the rest, landing into a minuscule cave.
That wasn't enough to stop him though. Determined to catch his prey, the tom acceleratedly jumped, attempting to escape the hole. His front paws holding onto the edge, he began to lift his body up, just to the point where he could jump out.

(I wanna join too! I haven't roleplayed with either of you in forever!!! ) Unsheathing claws began to dig a small hole in the dirt alongside the river, where an orange tom was buring his catch of a fish. He placed it in the hole and scraped dirt back over it now, trusting the cool soil to keep it fresh while he continued hunting.
Tasting the air, he scented a water vole nearby and began to creep away from the river stealthily, heading inland, following the scent. Soon it was in his sight, and when he drew close enough, the tom pounced. The water vole tried to run, but it was too late. Orange paws crushed it against the ground, and sharp white teeth killed it quickly.
It wasn't until then, when Firewing raised his head, that he realized he'd walked between two other hunting RiverClan warriors. He'd been so caught up in his pursuit that he hadn't sene Impaledtail or Hawkflower. "Hey", he meowed, sitting up, placing one paw over the prey he'd caught. "How's the prey running?",

"The Prey is going good today" Impaledtail mewed. Finally getting enough focused strength, Impaledtail clawed the roots of the ground and jumped through air itself. It appeared as if the robin had gotten away though, as it had crawled into a tree trunk a few tail lengths away from him.
Oiing to himself, he wiped the dirt off of his claws, and turned toward the cat behind him, observing the scene. Feeling like he had no other purpose here, he began to slowly pad toward him, keeping a neutral state and face.

Firewing watched the robin fly up, escaping from Impaledtail's claws. He shrugged, "There's plenty of other prey out today, that was good try though", he told the other tom in a friendly tone, which seemed strange in contrast to the other toms neutrality.

Hawkflower turned around, and quickly burried her fish for when she went back to camp. She padded back towards Firewing and Impaledtail and sat down in front of them. "Hi Firewing, hi Impaledtail." she mewed in her normal friendly voice she usually used. "Prey seems to be running very well today, which is non suprise, since it is Greenleaf after all." She looked back into the river, seeing if she could spot a fish or two. "I think right now the prey is gone for a little while though. Do you two want to go on a border patrol? I think I've been sniffing up something strange near the border over there and I wanted to ask other warriors their opinions before we tell Dreamstar."

"Suree, just one second though", Firewing meowed as he began to dig a hole to bury his water vole in also. Otherwise the greenleaf heat would turn it to crowfood in no time. As he scraped the dirt back over it, he asked: "What kind of strange thing did you smell?", It was like the young warrior to be curious. He padded over to stand a little behind Hawkflower, letting her take the lead. His green gaze looked to Impaledtail.

Hawkflower watched Firewing burry his fresh kill, since she had nothing better to do. She looked him straight in the eye when he asked his question. "It smells of crowfood, lots of crowfood and it's been bugging me for days. Some of the kits went out and sniffed it up and started making fusses about it. That's how I found out about it." She looked at Impalidtail to see if he was busy, and then looked back at Firewing. She continued talking. "I guess we could thank the kits for smelling that up in the first place; otherwise it could've turned into something bad."

After a pause, Firewing flicked his tail in dismissal. Impaledtail was probably still concentating on hunting. "Come on, if there is crowfood we need to find it and get rid of it before one of those kits ends up eating it", the orange tom started to walk ahead, then he tasted the air. He couldn't smell anything. He shuffled behind the deputy. "You can lead"

(Could I join in?)
Graypaw stalked through the reeds, on the hunt of a vole. Crouching down, her belly touching the ground, Graypaw watched with silver-amber eyes as the vole nibbled on a reed. Jumping forward, Graypaw grabbed the vole between her teeth and threw it up in the air only to swap it back to the ground. It let out a squeal but it was quickly cut off as Graypaw silenced it.
The gray tabby she-cat raised her head happily at her catch and picked it up. Suddenly, she smelt fresh cat scents. They were cats from Riverclan. Oh, maybe some warriors! Graypaw thought. She bunged her muscles and sprinted forward in the direction of the scent.
Finally, she saw three cats - warriors. She crouched down and crept in the direction and set down her kill. She thingyed her head to the side and she flicked her tail happily. "Hello," she said to the three.

Hawkflower nodded to Firewing. "Ya your right." She began leading the way to the border. She kept opening her mouth to taste the air when she finally smelled the crowfood, right on the border. "Here is where it is, Firewing." she mewed, wrinkling her nose in disgust. She heard the voice of another cat and turned around to face Graypaw. "Hi Graypaw. Were you hunting too?"

Firewing tasted the air, the other clan's border patrol had already passed and none of them were around. He turned to Hawkflower and Graypaw, waving his orange tail in greeting to the apprentice. "Can I toss it further over the border?", he asked the deputy with a grin, vaguely wondering if that was against some hidden code.

Hawkflower thought about that one for quite a bit. She didn't want to anger the other clans by tossing crowfood over the border, but if they left it here the kits might eat it. Then again, if they tossed it over the border, the other clans kits might eat it. "Let's go out of clan territory and bury it so no one finds it, except maybe for smart rouges."

The tom sighed a little, but he knew that Hawkflower was right. Firewing wrinkled his nose as he examined the crowfood. At one time it'd been a rabbit, but now it was rotting so much that it was hard to tell what it was. It made his stomach turn a little; he definatly didn't want any kits eating that. The tom picked it up by what he guessed used to be it's scruff, wrinking his nose even more and curling his tounge to keep it away from the horrid piece. "Come on then", he meowed as best he could, eager to drop it already.
