"Hi!" Oakpaw mews warmly. I'm Oakpaw, and this is my brother, Rowanpaw. He's sorta antisocial, don't mind him!" "N-No I'm not!" Rowanpaw mews back at his sister, getting flustered for no reason. Frostpaw nodded at the two apprentices. "I'm Frostpaw. I should probably find a nest right?" She was questioning her ability to function without the help of Snowdapple and Featherheart.

AshBlaze chuckles a bit, and shakes his head. "easy ElmPaw. falling over yourself will scare the prey away" he teases the new apprentice gently. "come on. this way" taking the lead a bit, the tom pads through the underbrush, heading towards the prey rich hollow he often hunts in. "your mouse catching pounce is pretty good, so we'll see if we can't find you a real mouse to test it on." he suggests. "and maybe a vole or two, if we're lucky to find them."

Elmpaw slowed himself and set to scenting like he had heard others do. He knew what mouse and vole sounded like but was overwhelmed by all the scents in the forest. He looked to his mentor.

"Oh, Rowanpaw already set it up." Oakpaw mewed. "Come on!" "Oh that was quite nice of you." Frostpaw squeaked in surprise as she followed the other two apprentices.

Rowanpaw stays silent.
((I was thinking of him having a developing crush on Frostpaw.))

AshBlaze, seeing the confusion on his apprentices face, dips his head closer, so that he doesnt have to speak as loudly. "you know what your clanmates smell like, so ignore those first. focus on the scents you recognize. think about what you get from the fresh kill pile, and match the scents to what you know" he coaches. "tell me what youre smelling"

(hi hawk!)
"good. the mouse is closer, lets try for that. remember, careful pawsteps. watch out for anything that could make noise" AshBlaze was proud of ElmPaw's fast learning, and the way he listens so carefully. "your nose will point you in the right direction. your ears will help you judge distance. the wind is bringing the scent towards you, so it wont smell you coming"

Elmpaw breathes in deeply and finds the mouse scent again. He turns his body in it's direction and tries to listen for it. He slowly stalks toward it using what he had already learned. He avoided a stick.

"good. let instincts take over" AshBlaze managed to get this to his apprentice before too much distance was between them. he hoped that ElmPaw would land this, it would be a great start, and a good boost to his confidence.

I see something inside you that you may not see yet but it is there and mentoring mat bring it out."

Elmpaw twitched his ears to let his mentor know that he heard. He focused on where the mouse was letting the rest of him move naturally. As he got closer he heard the mouse and found it was a few tail lengths away. He crouched and crept forward. Finally seeing the mouse and leaping.

"Uh... S-So.... Frostpaw... H-Hows life?" Rowanpaw stuttered.

Please try to keep conversations separated and give an idea of who is talking.) Darkstar nodded. "Good." She watched as Featherwind's eyes flashed with determination. "Good. How about you?" Frostpaw said noticing that Rowanpaw was quite handsome. She tried to not blush at her thought.

((I kept em seperate but ok))
Featherwind glances over at Frostpaw. "I should go show her around. I'll get Oakbriar and Basilwhisker to come too, with Oakpaw and Roawnpaw."
((Oakbriar will be Oakpaw's mentor, and Basilwhisker Rowanpaw's.))
Rowanpaw looks down at his paws. " I-I'm okay..."

Sorry I was listening to a song and I guess it transferred into what I was typing.) Darkstar nodded. "Basilwhisker was already gathering a hunting patrol so he will probably take Rowanpaw with him on that. I'm sure Oakbriar Oakbriar will gladly accompany you though." "Are the words written on your paws?" Frostpaw asked bumping Rowanpaw playfully.

Rowanpaw was thrown off balance and crashed on to his side.
Featherwind sighs. "I was really hoping to get those three closer together."

AshBlaze purred loudly when he saw his apprentice land his first catch. the pounce was near perfect, and the tracking itself was something to be admired. "nice job! that was excellent ElmPaw!" the mentor said, padding up to his apprentice. "you should be proud of that. not many apprentices land their first attempt of a kill"
