The petite she-cat apprentice was sprawled lazily at the side of the river, the border between StormClan and her own. Her blue eyes were wide as usual, curiously taking in the scenery that lay across the churning, icy water. The breeze pulled scents of the other Clan across the river to her nose, and she daintily took it in, giggling at how funny they smelled.
Finally, boredom got the best of her and she bounded down a slope to the edge of the water, backing up quickly when she had gone too close. She dipped a paw in, and quickly brought it back, shaking water droplets off of her. It was cold.
Strangely, although maybe not for her, the chill filled her with excitement and the strange urge and temptation to do something - well, stupid. Her gray pelt fluffed up against the cold, she raced back up the slope and turned to face the river again. With a couple of large strides, she brought herself as close to the water as possible, then pushed off hard with her back legs, sending her sailing through the air and straight into the icy water.
