(Other are welcome to join since this is a patrol)
Cloudpelt opened her mouth and let the scents flow over her glands. she could smell thunderclan but the wind was blowing from thier side of the border and it didn't seem fresh perhaps a patrol had passed thier side of the border a little earlier.
She carried on a little futher and thought she scented fox, but it was stale too by a few days.
"Fox scent here but it is old"

Nightstar followed a little ways behind cloudpelt, "Good, the last thing we need right now is a fox." she said is a sigh, all the clans just needed a ltttle peace right now. She glanced out at the river, it seemed unusually low, she trotted forward to stanf beside Cloudpelt." Is it just me or is the River looking kind of low?" she said her gaze intently set on the river.

Cloudpelt walked over to stand beside her leader and looked down into the swirling water of the river, but she was right it was lower than usual.
"It isnt just you, It is noticeably lower than usual, but it has been a bit dry recently, I'm sure rain will come soon"
She said to Nightstar with a cheary tone Cloudpelt was never one to get down about things, she was a positive thinker a bright happy she cat.

Nightstar walked over to the edge and lowered her head to get some water, she raised her head and Frostflower's words rang in her head.
"Starclan have shown me a terrible drought is close, the river will nearly dry up and sickness and death will be in the camp."
She shook her fur trying to get those thoughts out of her head, "I wish I believed that as much as you, but I'm afraid that it will be a while before rain comes, or atleast thats what Starclan thinks anyway." She said raising her head to glance at the sky, not a sign of clouds anywhere.

Cloudpelt gave her leader a respectful nod, she wouldnt let herself became depressed though it would only make things worse.
"Well then i will hope that starclan are wrong and if they are right we are strong and will survive like we have survived before"
Cloudpelt nodded to reinforce her words and sniffed the air again. She couldnt scent anything bad though.

Nightstar took a step or two back and scanned the river,"Yes, but if the river has dropped this far already I can't imagine how low the streams in the other clans territorie's are." she knew that the other clans had to be noticing by now, and she also knew that it wouldn't be much longer before Riverclan would have the only main source of water. She sighed, "Come lets finish our patrol." she said before starting to walk forward again.

Sandfur slipped out of the bushes just in frount of the two cats, he glanced at Nightstar and Cloudpelt before dipping his head respectfully and asked, "Could i join the patrol?" he didn't have anything else to do when he had gotten back from hunting earler and had ran to cetch up with them. His gaze hovered on Nightstar, he had been trying to be extra good so she would trust him like she used to.

Cloupelt stopped seeing Sandfur she twitched her ears at him and nodded in greating.
"Hello Sandfur, how are you?"
Cloudpelt was always a friendly cat, she enjoyed the company of others and felt strange being alone, she hoped nightstar would let him join the patrol as well.

Nightstar nodded to Sandfur, "Of course." she said seeing that Sandfur was still making up for what had happened with Roseheart. She wondered to herself if he and Roseheart had ever spoken, she hoped that they had gotten that over and done with, it would be better for everyone if they did. She wouldn't ask right now though, she continued and waited for Sandfur to answer Cloudpelt.

Sandfur dipped his head in thanks to Nightstar, then quickly he looked at Cloudpelt, "Hello Cloudpelt, I'm good," he said politely, "how are you?" He had been thinking a lot about Roseheart and he knew he couldn't love any other cat; but he couldn't be with her. He decided that his clan came first but... he first needed to tell her this and he didn't know if he could.

"Not too bad, happier than most, but thats just me"
She said with a purr as she looked around wary of thier environment she moved a few fox lengths further ahead and sniffed at a patch of weeds, it smealt strong like crowfood.
"This smells bad, not sure what it might be"

Nightstar walked over and sniffed what Cloudpelt was looking out, "That smells disgusting." she said turning her nose up at it. She sighed, she had to know what it was, she kept her turned so the smell wouldn't be so repulsive, she took her paw and pushed the weeds out of the way. A dead vole was laying inside the clump, as soon as she got clear veiw of it the smell got much stronger. She took a step back, nearly gagging, "Theres a dead vole." she said staying a few feet away from it.

Sandfur inched forward till he could see the dead vole, he was trying to hold his breath for as long as he could before having to take a breath. He took a deep breath and tryed not to gag at the smell, but he jumped over to it and covered the vole quickly with earth before jumping away. He crouched on the ground gasping for breath like he had run for miles and when he had regained his breath he sniffed the air, it wasn't as bad as before but it was still there. He sighed, "Did it die on its own or did something kill it?" he asked

Nightstar was glad that Sandfur had covered the disgusting thing, "It looks like something just killed it and left it, maybe a bird or a fox or something." she said coming back and sitting by Cloupelt and Sandfur. She thought about the quick image of the vole she had seen, it had a slash down its side but thats all she could really make out from the quick glance she had got off it.

"Well i suppose we keep our eyes open for any other kills like this and we will know if it is something to worry about before long"
Cloudpelt said as she purred at her clan mates before trotting forwards again, she scented the border and could smell nothing other than the still strong scent from the dead animal now buried in the earth.
