 {Forest & Morticat}
Frostpaw looked up at Spiderpaw as he hurriedly tried to help her shuffled into the safety of a little bush. Although the little bush covered her completely, her white fur stuck out like a sore thumb. Despite her throbbing paw, something else made her heart flutter. She longed to be by Spiderpaws side, every moment of her life. "Hurry back." She mewed, her ears perked in wait for Leopardclouds return.
She managed to dig a little hole in the ground and laid a big brown leaf on the top of it so she could remember where her kill was. She was upset that she had hurt her paw, yet proud cause she had still managed to kill the squirrel that Leopardcloud had asked for.

Mudfur looked up at Applefrost his ears perking as she shoo'd off the other warrior from the warriors den. "I am curious..." He mewed in response to Applefrost's plea for Luka to continue his story.
Although Mudfur had not been clan born, he was genuinely curious to know about the cats past and how this clan came to be. Never knowing exactly what the forest held, Mudfur was a wanderer, traveling for most of his life, from what he can remember anyway. He leaned in a little more, allowing himself to hear clearly as the rogue cat spoke.
 {Forest & ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 & 【 ᵗʷᶦˡᶦᵍʰᵗ 】}
Boulderpaw flattened his ears, he didn't really like the thought of switching mentors in the middle of his training, even if it was just for this short time. He looked at Amberstone, and then back at Brambleheart. He had never really gotten along with Brambleheart, and the thought of him telling him how to hunt made his fur prickle. "As you wish, Amberstone" He mewed respectfully. He would rather submit than have his ears clawed off later by the giant tom. If both the mentors though it was a good idea, who was he to say no?
His ears pricked at the sound of a little scuffle in the bush ahead of them, but decided not to pursue, seeing that Badgerpaw had picked up on it quicker than he did. He let his steps fall lighter on the ground, and he lowered his head.

Badgerpaw ; accompanied by Brambleheart, Amberstone & Boulderpaw .. {{ ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 【 ᵗʷᶦˡᶦᵍʰᵗ 】 @Brindlebriar }}
{{ training hollow }}
The sudden change of mentors fazed Badgerpaw as he was preparing himself for a hunt. Why hadn't the two mentors decided this earlier on? With an audible snort, he did his best to not roll his eyes at the two. As his pale gaze came to a halt, he began to observe Boulderpaw. Clearly his fellow denmate wasn't pleased with the idea either. Though the fact he agreed with Amberstone respectfully gave him an off-putting feeling.
Whatever. There was hunting to do and the faster it was executed, the faster they could squeeze in some time for battle training.
Unsheathing his claws quietly, the snowshoe's nose began to twitch at the scent of what seemed to be a shrew. It was close by, so chasing it down wouldn't be difficult. Carefully turning around, Badgerpaw peered at the only she-cat on the patrol as if he were waiting for a response, like being told to go after the prey. "Well, Amberstone?" the tom mewed impudently before diverting his blue orbs. "Can I go after the shrew or not?"
The apprentice was being crude on purpose as it wasn't out of neglect. He was still bitter about being on a hunting patrol instead of climbing the tree tops or battle training. Instead, here he was; awaiting for further instructions from a warrior that wasn't even his mentor while Brambleheart was daydreaming about his mate and Boulderpaw was unappeased with the switch.
What a day.

She nodded to Boulderpaw, "You don't have to if you don't want to, Boulderpaw." The mentor mewed kindly. She didn't exactly want to exchange apprentices after hearing the rude comment from Badgerpaw. Amberstone turned her gaze to Brambleheart, as if telling him to get his apprentice in-line. Turning back to the said being, she growled lowly, "I don't know, can you?"
She absolutely disliked Badgerpaw. He was disrespectful due to not wanting to do this training— which was very evident.
Blinking slowly, the tabby only flicked her ear. "I'm sure you understand I am not running alongside you like a kit, Badgerpaw. I am observing you from a distance." Amberstone couldn't help but complete her sentence with a thought of, And I certainly do not want to be anywhere near you. But kept it to herself, and only nodded. Softly meowing to the other mentor, she held herself calm, "Actually, if you were thinking we could take opposing apprentices and follow them, I'd prefer not to. You can take your apprentice for that part, Brambleheart. He is indeed, a handful." She ended with an amused smile.
&
Sweetpaw only nodded to her mentor's response and trailed after. She had opened her mouth slightly and tasted the air through smell. Looking around, she furred her 'eyebrows' together. "Well, I smell prey.. But I can't tell what type."
A small frown was placed onto her face as she closed to eyes to taste the trail once more. "For sure not another bird. It's not that close to being a prey that flies.. Perhaps a squirrel? Wait— no.."
&
The voice of her made him purr more. She was his sister, right?
The kit tilted his head to her words, not fully understanding what she meant. The feeling of him being lifted made the kit only mewl out quietly.
Watching everything run past him, the male flinched. Everything was so terrifying, but the grasp on his neck assured him he would be safe.
But would he really?
His bright green orbs flickered around as he watched with fear and excitement. Where was he at? What was going to happen?
Once more, he observed the unfamiliar area to him; the she-cat beginning to slow down. The small void of fear beginning to grow in his stomach as he noticed the other felines in the camp. Small tugging caused him to turn his attention to the black molly, his ears twitching as a small grin appeared onto his features.

Partridgehop ; accompanied by Nightwhisper .. {{ ᵏᵉˢᵗʳᵉˡ }}
{{ forest }}
To be honest, Partridgehop couldn't recall the last time a newcomer had entered SkyClan. Maybe she was growing forgetful for her age or, rather, she simply didn't care. With a brooding look in her eyes, she tipped her head towards Nightwhisper before speaking, "I've got no clue. Maybe one of the daylight warriors was the last one? Possibly Mouseberry?"
Decently skilled at hunting, the she-cat had no worries about being able to find an empty plot of land for the two to hunt on. It was likely that the forest was packed with mentors and apprentices doing their dutiful tasks, but it could change the outcome of the amount of prey they would bring back. If the two came back with almost next to nothing, they could always check on the borders to make up for it. Besides, it wasn't like Blizzardstar would notice. She was too busy with apprentices and strange newcomers.
The remark about Aspenfur caused the silver patched tabby to chuckle in amusement. "Looks like we might have to change up our plan then," she retorted teasingily.
She had yet to look back at her hunting partner who had gone silent. It was of no concern to the senior warrior that he did or didn't want to chat with her. She found the silence to be tolerable as the sounds of songbirds played throughout the forest. With a light shrug of her shoulders, Partridgehop was on her way towards a - hopefully - empty, prey filled spot of the forest.

a d a y a n d m o r e ʀᴀɪɴʟᴇᴀғ 🍁 j u n i p e r l e a p The love for the tom welled up in her chest, a giggle leaving her chest as she listened to him speak. She let her fluffy tail rest on her mate's shoulders, a soft, reassuring purr leaving her throat. "Don't worry, dear," she began, her light copper eyes focusing on the ginger male. "Blizzardstar knows what she's doing. And I know you'd do anything for me," Juniperleap purred, licking her nose before licking the tom's forehead. She settled down outside of the nursery, her ears flicking a bit. "Take your time, love. I'm in no rush," she giggled, her stumpy tail curling so it's to the side of her. |

“Great catch,” the tall tom purred while straightening his back as Hailstep maneuvered his way down the tree with the bird hanging in his jaws. Re-focusing his attention to the wilderness around them, he raised his head and narrowed his eyes as he caught the scent of a mouse nearby. Slinking towards the scent with absolute silence, Heronfeather prepared to pounce. Behind him, his tail swayed back and forth, like a metronome. His pale orbs were sharp, paralleling those of an eagle's, and he flicked his ear once before he leapt, causing his muscles to ripple beneath his fiery pelt. Underneath the light, his fur almost appeared amber. Victorious, he emerged with the bundle of gray clamped in his jaws. If there was one distinctive trait about him, however, it was that he was surprisingly modest with his catches. Even as an apprentice, he'd always been silent about them, regardless of how successful the hunting session had went. This time, however, he had a small twinkle in his eyes as he said: "too bad we're not allowed to eat during hunting patrols. I'd have given this to you." He seemed to be referring to Hailstep's earlier comment about liking lizard or mouse the most amongst all prey.

At the pleading of both cat's, Luka felt heat warm his fur in embarrassment. The fact that they were asking him, a loner, about their own history was an odd predicament, but something told the tom that things would get weirder from here. "The original SkyClan wasn't from the gorge," he mewed quietly, closing his eyes as faint images flashed in his mind. Greenery was evident; and he saw various cats with an assortment of pelt colors. They were gathered around a large rock, surrounded by oaks. "They were from a forest, with four other Clans," He had never heard of anything that was coming out of his mouth before - yet he felt certain about it, as certain as he was in knowing his own name. |

b r a m b l e h e a r t training hollow  Brambleheart narrowed his eyes. Amberstone was being just as rude as his own apprentice and he finally understood why Boulderpaw acted the way he did. Indeed, Badgerpaw was a pawful, but who wasn't to say Boulderpaw wasn't? He seemed to oddly obey Amberstone without question.
"You know, Badgerpaw would be perfect training for you. Sooner or later, you'll get an apprentice just like him. Then again, if he's that much of a pawful, maybe you shouldn't train an apprentice at all." Brambleheart coolly responded, wanting to stand up for Badgerpaw. "I understand he's being difficult, but giving up on a mere sign of trouble shouldn't be the way of a warrior." he added, turning around to face Badgerpaw. "Go hunting, Badgerpaw. Make me proud and I'll speak with Blizzardstar about your assessment. It's almost time." he told his apprentice.
He gave one more look at Amberstone and Boulderpaw, then he turned and padded into brush to hunt on his own. He looked up at a giant oak tree and decided to try his luck there. He would be able to keep an eye on his apprentice and the other two cats in his patrol. His pelt prickled in irritation at how Amberstone threw out comments and remarks so nonchalantly, almost questioning his mentoring methods.
b l i z z a r d s t a r training hollow  Blizzardstar opened her jaws and closed her eyes. She opened her eyes and gave a nod with a grunt. "No wonder why you don't know. Pheasants are very uncommon. It'll take two of us to take it down. Follow me." she mewed as she began to pad closer to the pheasant.
She sneaked closer, stopping only when the bird came into view. Her eyes narrowed, focusing on their target. The she-cat turned to look at Sweetpaw. "When I give the signal, pounce on it. Aim for it's neck, I'll hold it down so you can give it the killing bite." she whispered her order to the apprentice. She motioned with her tail where she wanted the young cat to go.
She stalked slowly away, getting on the other side of the pheasant. "If we can catch this, it'll feed plenty of warriors. Sweetpaw will earn a lot of praise for this catch.." she thought. If Sweetpaw wasn't so small, Blizzardstar was sure that Sweetpaw could follow verbal instructions and kill it. However, this was also her first pheasant and Blizzardstar wanted to give her a helping paw. |

The tom nodded at Frostpaw, quickly touching his cheek to hers before turning around and darting off farther into the hunting grounds. "At least if I catch something too we won't seem so foolish," Spiderpaw thought, thinking back to the scene that had just played out right in front of him. What had happened could have happened to any cat, whether clan-born or not, and Leopardcloud was a mouse-brain for suggesting tree-hunting in the first place. He sighed, shaking off his negative thoughts and guilt and soon slowed down his pace, drinking in the air and focusing his senses on picking up any small sign of life.
A scuttling noise not far ahead of him in the trees signaled to Spiderpaw to lower himself to the ground and creep towards the tree. Peering up the tree, the tom's chest rose and fall quickly with anxiety. "I have to make the catch," he thought to himself reassuringly, watching the small thrush hop along a branch not far up from the ground. Bracing himself for failure, the tom hooked his claws into the bark and pushed himself upwards, springing up and landing on the first branch and making little to no sound. If he was going to catch this thrush, he would have to focus and be light on his feet. The bird pecked at something within the cracks of the branch, oblivious to the predator lurking bellow. Spiderpaw took a deep breath in as he sprung up and latched onto the next branch, this time his body causing the leaves to rustle, but the bird seemed hardly phased as it prepared itself to fly to the next branch. "I have to make my move now!" He thought, crouching on the branch and letting out a slow breath. Leaping up to the bird with claws unsheathed and teeth bared, Spiderpaw knew he had it. He felt the brush of feathers against his mouth as his paws found the tree and he heard the "crunch" of the bird's neck in his jaws.

Leopardcloud had felt odd that she hadn't been able to locate the two apprentices yet, and she was beginning to suspect they had run off again looking for trouble. "They just gotten done with their punishment recently," she thought with a frown and look of confusion, as it really didn't make sense, "They wouldn't go off and do something mouse-brained again so soon". Suspecting she was just being too distracted and it wasn't the fault of her apprentice or Spiderpaw, the she-cat kept looking around high and low. "Is that Frostpaw?" she thought, stopping to taste the air. It most certainly was Frostpaw, but despite the strong scent of the apprentice, she was nowhere to be seen. "It can't be that hard to find a white pelt". Rather than calling out for her apprentice, the she-cat instead decided to put her nose to good use and began sniffing around the trees. It didn't take very long for Leopardcloud to sniff out the tree that Frostpaw had been climbing, and observing the remnants of a weak branch on the ground bellow gave her more than enough information of what had taken place. "She must be injured," she thought with panic, her fur standing on end, "And now she's wandered off into the forest". Fear and guilt gripped her; she had let this small she-cat climb the trees knowing that she likely wasn't as skilled as she should be.

{{ training hollow }}
What a childish excuse for a warrior, let alone a mentor, Badgerpaw thought before tossing a glare and a roll of his eyes towards Amberstone. Really, how immature could she be? Her age wasn't an excuse either. The fact she believed that getting even with him would do her any good was ludicrous. Only a fool would spew such things like the young warrior was saying.
Unfortunately to his affinity, the snowshoe was unable to get a word in as, notably, Brambleheart came to his defense. His peaked blue eyes gaped at his mentor's words, causing sudden shock to rack the feline. As soon as the ginger tabby turned his way, he, for once, had no words. Letting out a loud cough before sending a smirk smug to Amberstone, he nodded towards his own mentor. "Easily done," the apprentice responded smoothly. "Don't worry about me, Amberstone. I'll be sure to bring back a shrew or two for you." Quickly, he glanced at his fellow denmate. "Oh, and good luck to you, Boulderpaw."
With a flick of his tail in farewell, Badgerpaw disappeared into the brush instantaneously. He'd have to remember to thank Brambleheart later, but for now, the feline needed to catch some prey in honor of him and to show off to his fellow clanmates. He knew well that he could hunt with ease even if it wasn't his favorite activity.
All that was left to do was hunt and, maybe, flaunt a bit.
