The next day, Sun's P.O.V.
I wake up and pad outside. Pebble is already outside. I see Dustpelt and Ferncloud sitting out side the clan's den. I see Dustpelt look at me, eyes wide. He whispers something and Ferncloud looks at me to.
"Come on, Race you to the river." Pebble meows and we line up.
"Go!" I meow and sprint out of camp. I hear pawsteps and I know Dustpelt is following with other cats. I sprint to the basking rocks and hop on. I turn around and Pebble sits beside me. We watch as Dustpelt and the apprentices pad out, panting.
"Ready?" I ask Pebble and she nods. We hop down and Sprint tword them. They look at us and I laugh. I swerve away and hop over the branch jump. Pebble follows.
"CHASE!" I yowl and spin around. I leap over Pebble and run back. I hop over a log and right past the others. They watch me speed off. Pebble follows.
"Try and catch me." I yowl and run around the ash tree. I run straight for the others.
"You're gonna run into us!" Whitepaw meows and I laugh. I hop right over them and keep running. I circle around. I hop onto basking rocks.
"Ha Ha. I win!" I yowl and Pebble hops beside me.
"Mouse dung. I thought I could get you!" She meows. I see the clan cats pad over.
"Bet you can't leap from the highest branch of the straight oak into the river." I tell Pebble.
"Hmmm, you do it with me." She meows and we sprint to the Stright oak. I reach the branch first.
"Watch out!" I yowl and leap. I hit the water and swim back up.
"Ha!" I yowl and run to the rocks. Pebble jumps in and swims up. She pads back to me.
"Too easy." She meows and I nod.
"You can swim?" Dustpelt asks and I nod.
"Hmm, Jump contest?" Pebble meows and I nod.
"Wait." Eagle says as he pads in the clearing with Shadow.
"Let me guess? A game of chase, jumping into the river, and now Jump contest?" Shadow meows, padding up.
"You know us so well." I meow and we line up.
"Go!" Eagle yowls and the two of us take off. We jump the first one and I go ahead. I race back with Pebble right on my paws. I speed up and jump onto our rock. I crash into Shrewpaw and he goes flying into the river. Luckily he landed in the shallow part. Pebble hops next to me.
"Okay, I want to see you two do better." Pebbel meows and they look at us like we are ghosts.
"You two are like twins!" Eagle exclaims and I laugh.
"Yeah. We are." I meow and Pebble purrs.
"Hey Shrewpaw? You okay?" I ask, looking down at the ground.
"FOX!" Eagle meows and I see a fox with a torn ear.
"He doesn't give up!" Pebble exclaims and I nod.
"Come on, go to that side." I meow and run to the fox. I run the opposite side.
"NOW!" Shadow yowls and we run to each other. I sprint and she jumps on the fox. I hiss in its face. I scfatch it's muzzle. I hear the snap of bone and the fox falls. Pebble mews in satisfaction and I growl.
"It won't come back." I meow and she nods. We quickly bury it and pad back.
"Wow, good tactic." Dustpelt meows and I nod.
"Um thanks." I meow uncertaintly.
"Hi. I'm Pebble and this is Sun." Pebble says to Dustpelt.
"I am Dustpelt." He says and I stay calm. I see Shadow hiding. His pelt hasn't changed but mine is lighter than it was before.
"Hey Sun, the apprentices want to race." Eagle calls and me and Pebble laugh.
"Okay, short race. A lap around the ash tree and the pool." I meow and they nod.
"Okay, ready, set, go!" Eagle yowls and we shoot off. I see Dustpelt stare in amazement. I see Firestar and Sandstorm pad out of the trees. Me and Pebble run side by side around teh ash tree. I pull ahead and run faster. We run around the pool and I sprint faster to the rocks. I pull ahead and leap on the rock. Pebble leaps beside me. The apprentices are halfway to the pool. Firestar and Sandstorm pad over to Dustpelt.
"Did you see them run!" I hear Dustpelt exclaim and Sandstorm nods.
"You know more than you think about one of them." Sandstorm meows and Dustpelt looks at us.
"Are you telling me that the honey colored apprentice is Squirrelpaw." He meows and Sandstorm nods.
"Pebble, lets dive again!" I meow and she nods. We run up the straight oak to the top.
"Ready, GO!" Eagle yowls and we jump. We plunge into the water and come up. I jump out and shake my fur out. I see Pebble swim around a little and jump out.
"Perfect, as usual." Eagle meows and we laugh.
"Wow. A jump from That height. Sandstorm, you got to be kidding me. You must be mistaken." Dustpelt meows and I shake my head.
"Sandstorm isn't lying." Shrewpaw meows, padding up next to me.
"Then where is Brambleclaw?" Dustpelt asks.
"Hey Eagle, You and Shadow have a race." I meow and they line up.
"Where is he?" Dustpelt asks.
"Wait." I meow calmly.
"Ready, Set, Go!" I yowl and they go off.
"LOOSER HAS TO JUMP FROM THE TOP OF THE STRAIGHT OAK INTO THE WATER!" Me and Pebble yowel toghether. I see Shadow sprint past Eagle like a dark blurr. He runs around the pool and back to the rocks. He jumps up beside us.
"I loose." Eagle meows as he runs up.
"Go to the tree." I meow and he goes up the tree.
"Now JUMP!" Me and Pebble yowel toghether and he jumps down. He lands in the water and soon hops out.
"How can you two stand this!" He meows, shivering.
"Don't know." We answer in unison and We laugh.
"Brambleclaw?" Dustpelt whispers and Shadow nods.
"Okay, Sandstorm, sorry for accusing you of not knowing your own daughter." He meows and Sandstorm nods.
"CHASE!" Pebble yowls. She pokes me and she runs. I let her for a while. Shadow and Eagle join in the game. I hop down and Sprint tword Pebble. My sister pads out and I almost tackle her. I skid to a stop.
"Pebble." I yowl and get back on track. She is all the way across the clearing.
"Come and get me!" She yowls.I sprint across the clearing. She runs straight tword me. I know what she is doing. She looks past me. She dodges me and I spin around. I sprint and quickly catch up to her. I hop on top of her and poke her.
"Got ya." I growl playfuly and speed away. She hops up when I am all the way across the clearing. Eagle is by the basking rocks and Shadow is by the trees.
"Center." I yowel. We all run to the center. Pebble tackles Eagle and pokes him. He starts to chase her. I hop into the ash tree. Tawnypelt, Crowpaw, Stormfur and Feathertail pad out. They watch Eagle circle my tree.
"SQUIRREL!" Pebble yowels. when he is behind the tree, I run to the other side of the clearing. I see the four cats stare at me.
"Pebble, Come on!" I yowl and she runs to me. Eagle is chasing Shadow. They are running tword us.
"They wouldn't." Pebble whispers.
"RUN!" I yowl and we split up. We run on each side of them and meet back at the other end.
Shadow jumps into a tree and Eagle runs tword us.
"GO!" I yowl and we sprint to the basking rocks. I see the other four made it there. I break into a run and leap over a log. Pebble comes beside me. We hop onto our rock.
"WE WIN!" I yowel.
"You two are too fast!" Eagle meows and Pebble nods.
"What was that?" Tawnypelt asks.
"Chase." Pebble replies as Shadow pads up.
"Okay, Shadow, you lost, so you're it." Pebble meows and Shadow nods.
"Dog!" I Yowel and we sprint away. Basicly, we yell random things that are in a code. Shadow runs after Eagle. I run with Pebble to the center. Eagle runs tword the Ash tree and hops in.
"Shadow! Come and Get us!" Pebble yowls. We are at the pool. Shadow runs tword us. I purr and Run tword the jump course. I see Shadow tackle Pebble.
"SERIOUSLY!" I Yowl. I see Pebble run tword me. I hop over the jumps. I see Pebble three jumps behind me. I slow down until Pebble is a fox length away. Then I speed away. I see Thornclaw, Brackenfur, and Sorreltail pad out. They stare at me as I sprint past them.
"SUN!" Pebble yowls and I see her fall in the river. She hops out. I jump into the Ash tree. She circles aorund me.
"Fox!" I yowl and Eagle runs tword me. I hop down and run tword him. Pebble tackles him and joins me by the pool. He runs tword us.
"RUN!" I yowl and We speed away, with matching strides.
"WE WIN AGAIN!" We yowl in unison as we land on the rock. Shadow joins us.
"You two never loose." Eagle meows and joins us.
"Nope." We meow in unison and the four of us laugh.
"How can you two run that fast!" Shrewpaw exclaims.
"Magic." Pebble meows and I look at her.
"Your it!" I yowl and poke her. I sprint to the other side of the clearing.
"SUN! You will pay!" She yowls and speeds tword me. I run up the staright oak. When she is two branches under me, I leap into the water. I quickly hop out and hear a yowl. Pebble plunges doan and I speed away.
"Mouse dung!" She growls and shakes herself out.
"Center!" Eagle yowls and we run to the middle. Pebble tackles me and pokes me. They all run away. I growl and hop up.
"Hmmm." I melw and look around. I see Pebble by basking rocks, Eagle by the ash tree and Shadow by the trees. Eagle. I sprint to him. He runs tword Shadow but I beat him. I tackle him and run to Pebble.
"RUN!" I yowl. We leap onto our rock.
"WE WIN!" I yowl and Shadow and Eagle sprint over.
"Squirrel." I meow and they look at me. I shoot forward and catch the squirrel. Pebble finds. A couple of fish. Shadow gets some mice and Eagle gets a bird.
"Eat." I meow and hand out prey. I share a fish with Pebble while Shadow and Eagle share a mouse. When we finish, I lay on the rock.
"So the extremely fast she cat is Squirrelpaw?" I hear Sorreltail exclaim and Sandstorm nods. Pebble and Eagle are sharing tongues. I pad over to Tawnypelt, Crowpaw, Stormfur, and Feathertail. Shadow went for a walk.
"Hi." I meow and they stare at me. I shrink back.
"Um. Hi." Stormfur meows and I pad back forward.
"Hey Sun. Who is Stronger? Me or Eagle?" Pebble calls and I turn around.
"Lets see." I meow and they get up. They go to the center of the clearing.
"Go!" I yowl and they spring. Pebble quickly pins Eagle down.
"Pebble wins." I meow and turn back to my old friends.
I hear a yowl and look around. I gasp.
