The sun had begun to set quicker in the day, as expected with every change of the season. Golden oak leaves dance around the Lead Warriors paws as she leads the small patrol towards their shared border with SkyClan.

Apprentices likely outnumber the warriors, though Roeflame finds that she doesn’t really mind. Lots of young minds to mold, a welcome distraction against whatever the brassy she-cat may otherwise be stewing over. Besides, the two warriors accompanying her were more than capable.

Milky dusk light pokes golden and orange dapples through the canopies as the presence of oaks begin to thin slightly, Roeflame can see the nettles of pine trees begin to poke through the golden-green forestry, they had reached the border. She had shown Dovepaw how to mark their scent before Skyclaw’s takeover, but the Lead Warrior still keeps an eye on both them and Dwindlingpaw, who the tabby was still getting to know.

“Who can tell me what SkyClans special skill is?” The warrior hums to any of the apprentices present, “Much like RiverClans ability to swim, WindClans speed, ShadowClans stealth, and ThunderClans ability to traverse through the undergrowth, SkyClan warriors can..” the brassed warrior trails off, keeping a keen eye on her own two apprentices. The pop quizzes were for the Lead Warriors own entertainment most of the time, she couldn’t deny her love of fun facts.

Wildheart remained alert as they proceeded with the patrol, barely even registering the pop quiz being set for the apprentices by Roeflame. Every little noise caused him to snap his head round in investigation. Maybe he was becoming a little too paranoid. A sigh escaped him as he tried to steady himself. "Spiderpaw, remember to remain civil when we meet the SkyClanners. And don't cross the border either." He had made mistakes with Wrathpaw, ones he had no intention of repeating with Spiderpaw.
 
Since their return Dovepaw had been clung to the side of their mother, unwilling to leave her unless absolutely necessary, and with them being her apprentice it made it that much easier to be her shadow, to make sure she was still there. The patrol moved to the SkyClan border and the apprentice found their fur beginning to bristle, knowing not how the other clan would react. It had been a while since ThunderClan had tresspassed into SkyClan territory to steal prey but could they still be upset by that? How had the patrols that had been sent this way under SkyClaw's reign acted and potentially made tensions worse between the two clans? They hear Roeflame ask a question, and for a moment Dovepaw thinks before finally speaking. "They can climb, right?" They answer, tail waiving behind them nervously as they wait the answer and the eventual appearance of the tree-dwelling clanners.

there was a quiet chatter of teeth coming from the spindly apprentice that accompanied wildheart, his ebony fur fluffed out to the best of its ability in order to keep out the minor chill that was swept in by the passing breeze. they were only just settling into leaf-fall and temperatures have not dropped enough to become unbearable but spiderpaw was never good nor a fan of the cold so the change was immediately noticable to him.

the further he progressed, the more the great oaks began to give way and transition into the towering pines of skyclan where the new apprentice notices the lack of undergrowth on the their neighbors forest floor which confuses him a bit. their attention snaps immediately to the calico they stand besides who advises them to remain civil if a patrol shows up across the way and to respect borders, it never crossed their mind to act out in any sort of way in the first place but still they nodded sheepishly.

roeflame is next to speak, posing a question for the apprentices but spiderpaw is clueless as to what the answer may be. dovepaw responds first with climbing but. . .don't they all climb at some point? he doesn't voice that thought and remains silent, paws fidgeting against the earth as they wait for the answer to be revealed.

⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊ The trees whispered in the breeze, and the setting light illuminated them in vivid tones of orange and green as the Dwindingpaw followed reluctantly, paws dragging along the ground. Other than the occasional sideways glance, she didn't give much thought to the treetops. She was quite skeptical that the other clan would cause any problems; if anything, it would be the opposite.

She keeps her space away from the mother-daughter duo envy sinking its teeth into her insecurities. She was tempted to stay as quiet as Spiderpaw when the new mentor presented a question that truly had her thinking. Dwindingpaw hummed in agreement with Dovepaw's response. Skyclan is renowned for their ability to glide through pine trees in order to pursue their prey.

"True, I would say their special skill is their daylighters. They also live in the two-leg place right? It's got to be like a whole second territory that only their cats know how to traverse." Not that she's ever even seen the two-leg place before; is it a big area or a small one? Do all of the cats there become Skyclan cats? In a battle, would they call for the help of their kittypet friends that aren't daylighters?

She pondered once more about how different the lives of the two clans are; one is nearly destroyed by its dislike of kittypets , while the other is strengthened by their acceptance of them.
