Hawkscar nodded and decided to go a little further. He scents the air and notices a water vole near a rock. He crouches down and slowly creeps towards the small creature.
"Have any more tips?" Lightingpaw asked tilting her head a little.

SnowyVeil crouched down and shuffled closer to the shrew she had scented. When she was a few tail lengths away she readied herself and then pounced. Her paws landed squarely on the shrew and she killed it with a swift bite to the neck.

Hawkscar pounces on the water vole and kills it. He straightens up and buries the vole.

SnowyVeil buried her shrew and then scented the air again, hoping to find more prey.
TidePool thought for a moment but then shook his head. "None that I can think of at the moment."

"Okay, then let's move on to fighting!" Lightingpaw mewed excitedly. She quickly gets to her paws and faces Tidepool. She wanted to get better and ahead of her mousebrained brother.
Hawkscar glances towards the water. He thought about hunting for fish but decides against it. For now, he would keep his paws dry.

TidePool chuckled as he stood and face the she-cat. "Okay, for now I want you to come at me and see if you can hit me. I'll see if you can then dodge my attacks later."
SnowyVeil had finally caught the whiff of a mouse and had run off to go catch it. When she returned with the small brown creature n her jaw she set it with their other prey before padding over to the water and taking a refreshing drink.

Lightingpaw watches Tidepool for a few moments before lunging towards him. She was hoping to knock him off his feet.
Hawkscar slowly makes his way to the tree line. He notices a squirrel not far with it's back to him. He pauses for a moment before lunging forward and pinning down the squirrel.

TidePool watched her movements and jumped into the air swiftly, turning his body so he moved over LightningPaw and landed softly on the ground behind her.
SnowyVeil was now just looking into her reflection in the water and her low self-esteem started to act up I'm hideous. She thought to herself.

Lightingpaw blinked and turned around. She huffed before lunging at him again.
Hawkscar notices SnowyVeil and wanders over to her. "Everything all right?" He asked flicking his right ear.

TidePool side steps but LightningPaw's paw still connects with his shoulder.
SnowyVeil looked at the tom before sighing. "Yeah it's just... look horrifying. There's no way I'm ever going to have a family."

Lightingpaw purred happy that she managed to land a hit on him. She turns around and wiggles her body.
Hawkscar blinked at her. "You are far from horrifying." He looks at his own reflection mostly looking at the scars on his face. "I'm the one with the big scars."

SnowyVeil shook her head. "Your scars show the things you had to go through but still lived through. They are a symbol of your strength and are beautiful. She then shook her fur and sighed. "I just wish that I had kits right now really. I've always dreamed of being a mother."
TidePool purred and nudged the she-cat's shoulder. "Good hit. Now let's see how good you are at dodging hits."

"You are quite the looker yourself you know." Hawkscar mewed feeling his fur burn with embarrassment. He shuffles his paws wishing he was as flirty as Gorsefang. "You know, any tom would be lucky to have you as their mate."
"I'm pretty fast." Lightingpaw said rather proudly. She was more than ready to prove it too.

SnowyVeil looked up at that and blushed a little. "R-Really?" She stuttered a bit, embarrassed to have gotten the compliment from her crush. She had wanted to tell him several times but had never had enough confidence.
TidePool smiled and nodded. "We'll see." He looked at all possible ways he could attack before finally decided. He sprung forward to LightningPaw's left but tilted so that he would actually land to her right.

Hawkscar turned his gaze towards SnowVeil. "Yes and I mean it to." He hesitates before moving a little closer to her. "S-Some days I think you look gorgeous!"
Lightingpaw leaps back hoping that would be enough. She smirked a bit and wiggles her hindquarters. "Come on that was to easy!"

SnowyVeil looked at the tom wide-eyed and noticed that he had moved closer. She gathered her confidence and shifted closer as well, their fur was almost touching now. With the tom beside her she felt her confidence rising and she finally believed she would be able to tell him. "Um... HawkScar?"

"Yes, SnowVeil?" He asked as he looked into her eyes. Hawkscar could tell that something was on her mind. His heart was beating a little faster now and he felt butterflies in his stomach.

SnowyVeil took a deep breath, steadying her breathing. She finally felt her heart calming and so opening her jaws to speak. "I-I-... I like you." She looked away from him and busied herself by watching an ant carry something three sizes bigger than its body.

TidePool smiled before turning on his hind paws. He then bunched his muscles and leaped straight at her.

"You do?" Hawkscar asked blinking at SnowVeil in surprise. "What do you like about me?" He asked letting this all sink in.
Lightingpaw decided to crouch down hoping that Tidepool would fly over her. That was a move Gorsefang had taught her.

SnowyVeil shuffled her paws and took a deep breath before speaking. "Everything really. You help others out. You try to cheer others up when their having a bad day. You're a great and loyal cat. You just being you is what makes me like you." She kept looking away from him as she spoke.
---
TidePool noticed her movements and brought down his legs so that his sheathed paw went across LightningPaw's back. He then landed on her other side in a crouch before straightening up.

Hawkscar didn't really know what to say. He felt something that was for sure. Hawkscar presses his fur against hers and licks her ear. "That means a a lot SnowVeil."
Lightingpaw blinked in surprise. "W-what? How did you do that?" She asked tilting her head to the side.

The she-cat went wide-eyed as looked up at the tom. "W-What?" She fought for words. "What do you mean by that?" She finally managed.

TidePool smiled proudly. "I watched your movements carefully. When I saw you crouch down all I did was bring down one of my legs so that my paw got you." He explained it as simply as he could.

Hawkscar looks down at the water for a few moments before looking back at her. "I like you to. That and the fact you see me for more than my scars."
"Oh." Lightingpaw lets out a huff knowing she still had a lot to learn. She lashes her tail wondering if she will ever get good at this.

SnowyVeil looked at the tom and was at a loss for words. All of sudden it seemed as if HawkScar was the only thing around. She couldn't hear the breeze, the birds, the water as it moved. She wanted to ask him something but the words seemed stuck in her throat and she just sat there with her jaw hanging slightly open.

TidePool noticed her movements and padded over, touching his nose to her ear before wrapping his tail around her shoulders. "Hey, don't worry. I'm sure you'll make a fine fighter one day." He smiled at her happily.

Hawkscar twitches in amusement though he couldn't help but be amazed. He never thought a she-cat would look at him like that. He lightly licked her nose in hopes that would snap her out of it.
Lightingpaw looked up at the older cat. "I hope so." She hesitates for a moment and sighs. "Just gets frustration considering my brother has no trouble when it comes to battle training?"

SnowyVeil shakes her head, snapping herself out of her daze before looking at HawkScar shyly. "So? What now?"

TidePool lets out a laugh, his eyes shining. "Maybe he's a good fighter. Maybe you're not. Maybe you're a good hunter. Maybe he's not. It doesn't matter though. Everyone is different and so we all have different things that we're good or bad at." He removed his tail from her shoulders as he spoke.

"Would you like to be my mate?" Hawkscar asked "After that we could hunt a little more or head back to camp."
Lightingpaw slowly nodded her head. "Still, I want to be the best!" She argued flicking her tail back and forth.
