The sky was cloudy, it was easy to tell by the way shafts of light shone in the window of the Forestclan camp. Greystar sat outside his den looking out the window, it would soon start raining again. He looked across the room at the medicine cats den, it was a bush like his den, some how the bushes grew in the twolegs nest. He inhaled the scent of herbs, some made his nose wrinkle while others might actually taste pretty good. He shook his head to rid the smells before padding off down the hall. He could already see the kitchen and inside it were two bushes, lined against the wall, one was the nursery, it had the welcoming smell of milk and the soft sound of purrs. The other bush was the elders den, he used to love the elders den, the elders always told the best stories. Turning around the corner he then saw three more dens, the closest was the apprentices den, then the spies den and then closest to the camp entrance was the warriors den. All dens were made up of soft cotton that had been gathered under the cotton tree that is right out side of camp.
The Forestclan leader pushed his way out of camp, he was going on the sunhigh patrol alone, it wasn't that he preferred it, it was just that most of his warriors were already on hunting duty. The clan needed prey for the fresh kill-pile. He would do some hunting after he checked the borders. He went to the Caveclan borders first, they were usually trying to start trouble. The forest near the border was rocky and though he didn't prefer it here he didn't see anything really wrong with it. After marking the border he padded toward the Mountainclan border. They only shared a small piece of land with Mountainclan and even though they never started trouble that did not mean he would be taking any chances. By the time he got to the Treeclan border the sun had already moved across the sky and a light drizzle had started coming down. He marked the Treeclan border before stopping and looking around. Drizzle wasn't enough to send him home and the clan needed prey, after the harsh leaf-bare they had been through most of the cats were under weight.
Greystar padded through bear meadow, there was no sign of any bears and though the place was named bear meadow, bears weren't as sighted as one would think though it was still enough so that kits and newly made apprentices were not allowed there at all. Even warriors were not allowed there alone, Greystar was just passing through, he was on his way to the main forest. Right now it was the best place for hunting. He dashed through bear meadow and made his way to main forest. Though he was going at a pretty fast speed, his paws made very little noise as the hit the grassy forest floor. Once in the center of main forest he stopped and scented the air. At first he smelt nothing other then the scent of another Forestclan cat but after scenting again he smelt a forest mouse, then he heard it and saw it nosing around under some leaves. He got down into a hunting crouch before stalking toward the mouse, his movement were silent as he crept up on the mouse. Right when it saw him, he pounced and killing it with a swift bite to the back of it's neck. Satisfied with his kill he set it at his paws and looked around, again smelling a member of his clan.
