Just moments before Dawnpaw showed up, Stonefeather's large paw flew into the water and when it left, it returned with a large silver fish. The fish flailed on the land and before Stonefeather could kill it, it jumped right back into the stream.

"Foxdung," he cursed, turning to meet Dawnpaw's eyes. He nodded approvingly at her catch, although he was internally beating himself over his carelessness.

That was where he knew her from - Minkpaw would have been presented at the gathering with special notice and would have sat by the medicine cats. Stonefeather nodded once again in response to her question.

"In ReedClan, because the stream and delta is so narrow, we sat in a line of three or so. Three cats would sit at least two fox lengths apart so if somecat missed a fish, especially a big one, it was more likely it would be caught," explained the tom. He'd always wanted an apprentice. StarClan was odd about the way they did things, like all this mess - if there even was a StarClan.

"You have to be silent and sit the way I'm sitting so that your shadow doesn't fall on the water. That being said, later in the day you would have to sit on the opposite side for the same purpose. It's important to be fast but that's something you learn with practice..." he paused. "So what we'll do is I'll have you sit to the right of me, about three fox lengths, so that you can have the first try."
