"the closer we are the stronger we are" he added with a slight smile, it felt good to talk to Moonstrike, it always helped calm him down."So,what are we going to be doing today?" he asked quickly changing the topic.
"We're headed to the river, I think a little hunting will help work out all that nervous energy." You've been heading west from the camp, just skirting the sandy hollow. "The stream will be low this late in green-leaf, but it is still an excellent spot for prey. Can you think what we'll be most likely to find?"
(Knowing the geography of the territory won't make or break you, but it will help with hunting assignments. If you don't have a book I imagine you can find a map online)

Your brother trots over as Bramblestorm leads the way out of camp. "We're headed for Tall Teeth." It's a beautiful day and the early new-leaf sun shines on you pelt as Bramblestorm breaks into an easy run. "Wolfpelt reported some new rabbit dens in that area two days ago and we should find plenty of prey."
(I'm making up places because I don't think the Windclan territory ever got well developed. Tall Teeth is a set of large boulders Northwest of camp nestled between the two hills on the side closer to the edge of the map. Not knowing the geography won't hurt you, but it may help when leading patrols.)

"So near the Sunning Rocks?" he asked his tail twitching a bit.The rocks had been the grounds for many a skirmish between ThunderClan and RiverClan."Cause I don't want to accidently run into a Adder or something"

"We'll be a good bit downstream today, we're looking for hunting practice after all. But very good." The two of you pad silently through the forest, slowing to a standstill as the trees open up before you. The stream is completely dry, caked mud snaking its way through grass-covered banks.
Moonstrike stops a few feet from the treeline, settling into a comfortable stance and pitching her voice low. "What do you sense, Honeypaw?"
(Sunning Rocks is currently Thunderclan's by the way)

His ear twitches as he settled down into the grass a bit lower,listening for anything.His mouth slightly open to catch any scents...nothing was really popping up

I follow him excitedly. Resisting the urge to pass him and run around aimlessly like a small kit.

Moonstrike waits patiently as you filter through the earthy scents of the forest, everything overlaid by the pervasive smell of mud from the creek bed. You manage to pick up a scuffle of dry leaves on the opposite bank and the scent of squirrel is carried from the forest across the stream and to your right.

Graywing shoots ahead as you start down the eastern slope of Windclan's camp, bumping your shoulder in playful challenge as he passes.
