Emberdust hadn't spared a single moment as she both challenged her sister to a race and kept her stride through the east entrance of camp northeast towards the forest's edge. Her footfalls fell heavily on the loamy earth, kicking up a bit of debris as her claws got traction on the damp ground, although avoided the wettest of the marsh. Still didn't mean she wouldn't keep an eye or two out for frogs. She could hear their croaks surrounding her, but none could be seen quite yet.
Nearly there, Emberdust continue to race her sister, meaning every word she had said to her prior to initiating the challenge. When finally she stopped seh heaved with an airy bout of laughter, but hadn't quite noticed who exactly won. Emberdust didn't particularily care much either, as long as they both were having fun. "Okay, okay... What's the plan, Whisperingwind? How's your tree climbing?" She breathed out between breaths.

Whisperingwind had certainly forgotten just how fast her sibling was. A race hadn't occurred between them in moons and she enjoyed the challenge and the run. Whisperingwind had always loved the feeling of dirt gathering between her claws from her long strides. The pines seemed a bit quiet apart from the occasion croaks of frogs. It was a comforting sensation as her lungs burned from the sudden exercise increase as she came to a skidding halt beside her sister.
She couldn't help but laugh alongside her companion as she took the opportunity to glance around. Her silver gaze skidded along the darkened tree branches, as her sister questioned her plan. While Whisperingwind was rather against getting wet, she did enjoy a good climb. "I climb like I'm a squirrel of course." She teased Emberdust, as she approached the base of one of the larger pines before her.
Parting her lips, the molly took in a deep inhale of breath hoping to smell any trace of squirrel which unfortunately did not happen. Her brow furrowed, as she continued to glance around. "I suppose it doesn't matter if none of them are around."

Emberudst sniffed around, taking in the scents around her. She couldn't see any squirrels or hear their chittering, but that didn't mean that they couldn't be surprised with one in the trees already. "If you think you can climb after a squirrel, be my guest." She motioned over towards the sprawling tree, as the fellow trees circling it. The forest's edge was right on the cusp of their territory. What happened if they wandered a bit farther?
"You're a better climber than me!" She wasn't one hundred percent certain, but you wouldn't catch the torbie head in the sky, up in a tree clawing to the bark by her whiskers. She preferred all four paws on the ground, and she loved getting wet. Probably just wasn't a fan due to her longer coat, which could soak in water like a moss ball. She loitered near the roots of a tree, half crouched as she kept an ear out - It was so hard to hear properly with all that croaking!
But wasn't that what she wanted to hunt anyway? Oblivious to the fact that was was wandering a bit closer to the loamy cattails, she spoke again. "We could try and put ourselves in the frogs' path? You don't even have to get wet if you don't want to!"
