"The cat 'stepping on my tail' is you, apprentice. Combat? Then we will first see what you know. What is the move you are the best at, the move you are the worst at, and the most skilled move you know? Tell me now, and if you take to long I'll randomly attack you." He said sharply, realizing that this was going to be an obscenely long day. "I'm the best and most skilled at the Leap-and-Hold. I'm the worst at the back kick." Pinepaw replied, beginning to slowly circle his mentor. "Mind telling the apprentice what they've done wrong?" He asked. -- Limeheart was waiting for Palepaw near the apprentice's den. "Palepaw, go get something from the prey pile and we'll head out for tracking practice." He mewed. The white tom hadn't had any prey yet, but he could wait until that night, there were plenty other cats who could use the prey.

Palepaw nodded quickly, and padded to the fresh-kill pile. She picked up a dead pigeon by its wing and started chewing on it. Soon, all of it was gone, and she ran over to Limeheart. "I'm ready!" she meowed, trying not to be so loud. -- Lilypaw yawned, not because she was tired, but because she was bored waiting for Amberstar. She started playing with a tiny piece of bark that she found on the ground. Lilypaw pawed at it, and then realized that she shouldn't be playing with it. "I'm not a kit." she murmured to herself.

Limeheart looked around while his apprentice was eating and he noted Amberstar on the announcement stone. He wondered if the leader would want their apprentices to train together, tracking practice was better with multiple cats. "Amberstar." He greeted with a respectful nod.

"Sure, I can lead. Who should I bring?" Royalfire asked, then noticed her leader's dusty pelt. "Who did that to you?" She asked, wondering who would play a prank on Amberstar.

This apprentice really neads to learn his place... he thought. "Fire, then.Let's work on your back-" Thornstep suddenly launched himself forwards, pushing Pinepaw down to the ground.

"Sure, I can lead. Who should I bring?" Royalfire asked, then noticed her leader's dusty pelt. "Who did that to you?" She asked, wondering who would play a prank on Amberstar. "One of the apprentices. That's all I know." She growled. "I'm going to have a meeting with them at Sunhigh to weed out the insolent brat who did it." They won't be a warrior anytime soon. She decided. "Can you go tell Moonstep that I want her to lead the hunting patrol? You both can decide who you want to bring." She said, then sighed under her breath. "Dear Starclan, I need to appoint a deputy."

"Okay." Royalfire decided to bring Darksky, and she headed over to him. "Can you join a border patrol with me?" She asked him, trying to be soft and not startle him.

Moonstep padded out of the Warriors den, her fur thoroughly groomed. She noticed Amberstar on the announcement stone and padded over, wondering what was going on - and why her leader was covered in mushroom powder.
Pinepaw saw his mentor's muscles bunch right before he spring mid-sentence. He knew to watch his mentor's movements, when he was mad, there was no telling what Thornstep would do. The apprentice dropped and pushed himself into a roll, feeling his mentor's paws step a whisker away from him. He pushed himself to his paws and lept at his mentor's flank.

But Thornstep had already flipped around and was now face to face with his apprentice. He suddenly jumped upwards, very high, and landed on his apprentices shoulders.

Pinepaw let out an 'oof' as his mentor's paws landed on his shoulders, pushing him to the ground faster than his mentor. He pushed up with his hid paws, digging his front paw claws into the dirt for better balance. He kicked against Thornstep's chest as his mentor landed against his hind paws.

Moonstep padded out of the Warriors den, her fur thoroughly groomed. She noticed Amberstar on the announcement stone and padded over, wondering what was going on - and why her leader was covered in mushroom powder. "Moonstep!" Amberstar exclaimed. "Can you lead a hunting patrol? You can choose the cats you want to take."

Moonstep looked up at Amberstar and nodded. "Allright. I'll take Rockfur, Limeheart and his apprentice." She decided quickly noticing Limeheart standing near the stone as though he was waiting for something. "Limeheart, get Palepaw ready, you're joining my hunting patrol." Moonstep informed him. The white tom looked like he was about to protest and she flicked his nose with her tail. "It's still training, don't whine." She made her way to the Warriors den to find Rockfur.

Royalfire started heading out of the camp, a slight skip in her step. She then slowed down so that she could talk to Darksky. "So I don't entirely remember, were we apprentices at the same time?" she asked.

Can Stagpaw be part of this as she is Rockfur's apprentice?

"Good, Pinepaw." There was a glimmer of suprise in his voice. Maybe this one will actually listen...

also: Royalfire started heading out of the camp, a slight skip in her step. She then slowed down so that she could talk to Darksky. "So I don't entirely remember, were we apprentices at the same time?" she asked. "Probably not. I became a warrior only a moon ago." Darksky replied.

(What time is it? I'm just wondering cuz I want to know how long untill Stagpaw is in a load of dog poo) It's Dawn right now. After the patrols get back, it'll be Sunhigh. The 1st post on page one has what time, season, and weather it is in roleplay.
IN RP:"My mentor was my father, until he died." Darksky sighed. "Emberstar died 2 moons before I became an apprentice, but she told Amberstar that my father was the right choice. She was correct. My father tried to push me to be the best I could be." (Emberstar's death is supposed to be pretty recent, but long ago enough that the scars have started to fade.)

Now Stagpaw was beyond bored. She decided to play another prank. She thought for a moment, then decided to prank her leader again. She got up, and exited the camp again. She ran over to the pond, as fast as she could, and wrapped a dead fish in a big leaf she found. She then picked it up, gagging on the smell. She sprinted back to camp, then delivered it into a hidden place in the leader's den. Hopefully, it wouldn't be found, and it would continue to stink. She ran right outside the camp, pretending to be looking for her mentor, as to not arise suspicions.

Pinepaw stood and faced his mentor, puffing out his chestfur in pride of his mentor's praise. "What should I do to improve my moves?" He asked, deciding that would be good wording seeing as if he asked Anything I could do to improve? it would be implying that his moves were near their peak.

Hollysong felt a surge of alarm as a lack of smell after in her nose. She hadn't noticed it before, it was easy to ignore something you couldn't scent. The red toyger nosed around in her herb store and found what she'd been dreading. The catmint leaves had gone stale without her realizing. They were unusable now. Luckily, no cat seemed to have symptoms of whitecough or greencough, but she knew she needed to tell Amberstar. She'd obtained the catmint leaves a little over a moon ago before the herbs in the territory started to wither from the cold, but not being put to use, they had sat and the oils had dried up, leaving the plant scent-less and without medicinal property.

"You, my apprentice, nead to learn that no matter what," He said, slyly figuring out how to manipulate his apprentice, "Need to learn that we train like we fight. Therefor, I'll teach you how to manipulate any enemy, whether it be a clanmate, or an enemy warrior. Yes, clanmates can be enemies..." Thornstep paused, thinking he went to far. "If there is ever a disagreement, you will win. And, with a warrior from another clan, you're solid on the fighting skills. You, need to learn how to make you're enemies fear you, and trick them into submitting before you get scratches, or your ear clawed off."

Pinepaw listened as his mentor spoke, a bit surprised at the words. "I guess it makes sense. I don't want to manipulate my clanmates, but I guess if they turn on the clan I won't have a choice." He agreed. "And if I can get out of a fight with the least injuries that would be the best." He unsheathed his claws, preparing for Thornstep to attack again since he said they should train like they fight.

Stagpaw looked behind her, now actually looking for her mentor. Instead, she saw Ghostfang standing alarmingly close to her. "Uh, hi there, Ghostfang.... what's up?" She mumbled, slightly creeped out, but the elder just looked at her, everything still, but her eyes. Her eyes where the creepiest, a dark shade of grey, always moving and calculating. "I know what you did." She said in a whispery voice. Stagpaw looked slightly alarmed, but didn't really care. "So?" She asked. "I overheard Amberstar. She said the culprit won't be a warrior anytime soon." "OOOHHHH CCCRRRRAAAAPPPP!!!!!!" Stagpaw murmured. Sure, she loved to prank, but she wanted to be a warrior! "I can help you. I have a special intensest in you..." Stagpaw wasn't sure whether this made her feel any better. "How?" "Stay on patrol all day. She means to talk to all of the apprentices. When she finally catches you, act innocent, and scared that someone will prank you. That is all I can do." The elder then turned around, and left Stagpaw, who turned around, and said, "Well that was weird." Stagpaw decided to go to Shaded Moss first, and try to hunt there. Hopefully, she would find someone to hunt with.
