Snowmask clumsily got to her feet and followed Fallingsand. As they neared camp she trotted a little faster. "Thanks for going on a walk with me." She said to the warrior. He nodded slightly. "No problem!" He bounded off into the middle of the clearing, looking around and trying to see if he could meet some more cats.

Melonburr listened for Brightpaw. Trying to hear if he let his prey make a noise. He was pleased when it didn't make a sound. He decided to walk off before the apprentice came back thinking that he would just continue hunting if he saw Melonburr gone. He followed a trail leading to a dense brush. He could smell a shrew down it. He made the mistake of being upwind of it and it took off just as he caught sight of it. He made his way back towards Brightpaw his tail hung low.
Snowmask watched as Fallingsand bounced off and decided to go lay back down with Applefall.

Ratwhisper unsure of what else to do heads towards the entrance. He wanted to fill up his den with herbs or else the emptiness would bother him all day. He had a vague idea of where he left the herbs from before. He felt a bit of excitement at the thought of a new life and helping out his new clanmates.

IvyShadowfoot trotted next to Fernfeather, making sure to keep her pace as she trotted faster. “I’m sure that was nice, did you like being a loner?” He asked her curiously, he and his sister had technically been loners for a short time. But it was much different, they had unwillingly lost their home and family. Maybe if there wasn’t so many circumstances then being a loner would’ve been better.

Willowpaw nodded. She waited for her mentor to lead the way. A single tear rolled down her cheek at the thought of moving on from her life before with her mother. But then she shook her head. Flora had left her. There was no need to cry about the life that her mother tore apart. She thought about what it would be like to hunt and fend for herself. "Where do you want to go?" She asked.

Fernfeather slowed and turned her head to Shadowfoot. "It was kind of peaceful but also really lonely. After my mom left me behind I tried to talk to others. But most of them weren't very friendly." She shook her head. A few steps later they came into a clearing covered with moss everywhere. "This is it. The mossy clearing." She said stepping into the soft clearing. "I figure it will be nice for something."

Melonburr listened for Brightpaw. Trying to hear if he let his prey make a noise. He was pleased when it didn't make a sound. He decided to walk off before the apprentice came back thinking that he would just continue hunting if he saw Melonburr gone. He followed a trail leading to a dense brush. He could smell a shrew down it. He made the mistake of being upwind of it and it took off just as he caught sight of it. He made his way back towards Brightpaw his tail hung low. When Brightpaw didn't see Melonburr he took that as another opportunity to try and find some more prey. He was about to walk off but then he caught the scent of a squirrel. Carefully he made a few steps in that direction, keeping low as he got closer. He hadn't caught many squirrels before and had never done so on his own, always having hunted them with Sablefur and later with Stormchaser. Brightpaw knew that he probably wouldn't be fast enough to catch one by himself but that didn't mean he shouldn't try. If he didn't practice he would never improve. For a moment he watched the squirrel. It hadn't noticed him yet but sneaking up on it would be hard.
Still crouching low he crept closer, hoping the squirrel wouldn't turn around and see him. While he was hidden for now he would have to get out in the open to get close enough to catch it. To his surprise he did manage to get closer but just as he leapt the squirrel looked up and took off. Brightpaw hissed in disappointment as he barely missed it but decided to try and chase after it. He managed to chase it away from one tree but it just headed for another one and quickly ran up its trunk. He tried to follow it but it was already up in the branches when he started to climb. For a second he glared up at the squirrel but then hopped back down. Stormchaser would have caught it before it reached the tree or while it was still running up the trunk, Brightpaw thought as he trotted back to where he and Melonburr had started their hunt.
"I think I just found out why most cats prefer to hunt squirrels with a partner," he meowed as he padded over to his mentor.

Melonburr nodded. "Squirrels are hard to catch. I don't usually try for them." He chuckled and set his tail on Brightpaw's shoulders. "I smell a rabbit off in the distance. Let's see if we can tag team it." He said hoping to help the young cat to recover from the lost prey. "I'll go around and scare it toward you if that's okay."

The air was fresh and he could hear faint shuffling of fern from prey, “it’s nice here,” he mewed before crouching down and searching for movement. Morningmist took a moment to admire the area, she appreciated the lushness of the forest and the fresh feeling it gave her. “This place is great Fernfeather,” she mewed before she began to silently stalk around the perimeter of the clearing.

Willowpaw smiled at Badgertooth. "Okay. Flora didn't like me playing hunting games so I'm probably behind in my knowledge." She prepared to follow her mentor out into the woods.
Fernfeather nodded. "I figure with the padded ground we could train here. I mean mostly apprentices but also any cat who needs practice." She said. Her ears perked up as she scented a mouse nearby. She started off after the scent with a flick of her tail. She pounced and brought it back to the other two. "This is my first catch as a warrior." She said proudly.

Timberpaw-Camp-Stormchaser Timberpaw sprang up, nodding at his words. "That works," he said following after the warrior. "Like you said there will be plenty of time to see the rest another day." He was eager to get to go out and see his new home, even if it would just be a small portion, but it was already making him look forward to working with the warrior and serving the clan.
Barkpaw-Camp-Moleshade Moleshade, Moleshade, Moleshade. She thought over and over, trying to get the name to stick in her memory. "Y-yea I'm Barkpaw," she said, realizing she was asked a question. "I look forward to working with you."

"Don't worry, I'll teach you everything you need to know." Badgertooth said as they go through the entrance. "We will try and catch a few mice and a shrew or two. Those are easy to catch. As you get better, you will learn how to catch rabbits and birds."

Stormchaser - Forest - Timberpaw
"Maybe Silverrose will send us on a border patrol tomorrow," Stormchaser said as he led the way. He paused for a second to find Fernfeather's scent as she had been to the Mossy Hollow before and then followed it. It seemed like she also had headed that way a short while ago with another cat. As he walked he glanced at Timberpaw. "So, have you already met some of the other apprentices?"
Brightpaw - Forest - Melonburr
With a hopeful smile Brightpaw nodded. Rabbits were hard to catch but hunting with a partner could work. And unlike squirrels rabbits couldn't just run up a tree. "Okay, let's try and get it," he said, careful to not speak too loud.

Moleshade smiled at Barkpaw. "I look forward fo working with you too. You don't have to worry about being nervous though cause I'm probably just as nervous as you are." She said she looked around. "We can either go hunting like I see alot of cats doing or we could just mingle with the clan now that we've met and we can start training tomorrow." She sat and watched the nervous apprentice and wondered what she would choose. "I think it would be fun to join the border patrols tomorrow." She added.
Willowpaw nodded. "Okay. I'll do exactly what you say." She said waiting to follow her mentor. "I've never tired rabbit. Do you think if someone catches one that they'd let me try it?" She asked shyly.
Fernfeather nodded. "I figure with the padded ground we could train here. I mean mostly apprentices but also any cat who needs practice." She said. Her ears perked up as she scented a mouse nearby. She started off after the scent with a flick of her tail. She pounced and brought it back to the other two. "This is my first catch as a warrior." She said proudly.

Melonburr smiled at his apprentice's enthusiasm. He nodded and slowly worked his way around the rabbit and waited til he could see Brightpaw on the far side of the clearing. He waved his tail to see if the apprentice was ready and then charged the rabbit yowling. He chased it until it was going directly toward Brightpaw.

Brightpaw watched Melonburr walk off and slowly got in position to catch the rabbit when it ran at him. At his mentor's waving he too slightly waved his tail to signal that he was ready. He watched closely as Melonburr chased after the rabbit and herded it in his direction, trying to predict which way it could try to escape. Not giving the rabbit a chance to properly react once it saw him he leaped for it, right as it tried to swerve left. Brightpaw quickly landed a killing bite on it, knowing that rabbits were perfectly able to hurt a cat when they were cornered. He didn't want to embarrass himself by getting kicked by some rabbit after all. With a grin he stood over the freshly caught rabbit and nodded to Melonburr. "That was cool," he yowled, happy that they had managed to catch this one. "Nothing against our mice but I bet the clan will like this one the most."

He gently nuzzled the other tom like he would one of his sons. "I'm proud of you."

Badgertooth goes a little ways away from the camp and looks around. This area seemed good enough of a place to start. "Now, I want you to scent the air and let me know what you smell."

Willowpaw followed Badgertooth out into the forest. She stopped when he did and sniffed like he instructed. "I smell trees and dirt." She said. Then she parted her jaws and breathed deeply. "I think I smell mouse faintly but I can't tell where it's coming from." She whined.

Brightpaw purred softly at the gesture, feeling both proud and wistful as it reminded him of Sablefur, his former mentor, and Darkwhisper, his father. "Thank you," he meowed. Then he gave a cheerful grin as he said "Can't afford to slack off then, huh?" He looked down at the rabbit and then glanced to where he and Melonburr had buried their mice. "So, should we get them back to camp now or do we stay out here some more?"

Melonburr chuckled at Brightpaw's comments. "I just expect the best from you. But our bests are different every day" He said wisely. He then looked at the mice and rabbit. "I think if one of us carries the rabbit the other could fit one more piece of prey in his mouth." He said.

Timberpaw-Forest-Stormchaser "I would be up for that," he said with an excited grin. Getting to know the lay of the land further would make it far easier for when he wants to sneak out, he had done a bit of it back in Boulderclan, and had a blast. He gave a small nod to his question. "I've meet one of them, Mistpaw! He seems nice." He looked to Stormchaser. "Have you meet other warriors yet?" He really liked Stormchaser already.
Barkpaw-Camp-Moleshade "I...I'm not sure what I would like to do," she said. She looked around the camp, she didn't see her littermates, pulling her ears back a bit. "Maybe....stay in camp?" She doubted she would be able hunt anyways, she would just do a bad job, probably a worser job, since she never been in this territory before. "Whatever you think is best."
Crescentsmoke-Camp-Mistpaw Crescentsmoke walked around the camp, but soon spotted a cat by another. He hadn't learned everyone's names yet, only knowing the few he meet when building the camp. Walking over he gave a nod of greeting to one of them. "Hello I'm Crescentsmoke, are you Mistpaw," he asked. "Or know where I could find him?"
Cherryfire-Camp-Petalpaw Cherryfire smiled as she approached Petalpaw. "Hello Petalpaw right," she asked her. "I'm sorry I'm not a clanborn cat, but i will try my best in helping you in your training." She offered another smile to the other cat. "Is there anything you would like to do? I see some are going out to look at the territory?" The term felt odd to her, to call something as a territory, but she knew the terms would get more familiar to her.
Hawksky-Camp-Brindlepaw Hawksky looked to the apprentice, he was thankful it was at least a clan born cat with the other cat already having a clan name. He couldn't stand the thought of having to train a cat that was an outsider. "I am," he said to the cat's question. "You are Brindlepaw then? I look forward to working with you for whatever is remaining of your training."

"That's okay." Badgertooth explained with a flick of his tail. "Try scenting the air again but this time separating the different scents." He hoped what he was saying made sense to her.

Brightpaw - Forest - Melonburr
Brightpaw thought about that for a moment. "That makes sense, I guess", he then meowed with a nod. There definitely were days when he did better or worse than usual and the way Melonburr put it made him realize that being less succesful sometimes didn't necessarily mean that he wasn't trying hard enough. "Well, I just hope that we won't have too many bad days!" he added cheerfully. He too glanced at the prey again and purred. "Okay, one more piece of prey then," he agreed, happy at the chance to get more done today. "Mind if I give it a shot?"
Stormchaser - Mossy Hollow - Timberpaw
Stormchaser smiled at that. Good to know that Timberpaw seemed to get along with at least one of his fellow apprentices. "Well, I suppose you'll meet the rest of them later then. But if they're nice like Mistpaw you'll probably enjoy training with them." At the question he nodded. "I haven't talked to too many of them but I hunted with Wrenwillow and Melonburr yesterday. They're both good cats and Brightpaw is lucky to have Melonburr as a mentor. I also went out with Applefall today. To look for Willowpaw's mother." As he spoke he suddenly halted and motioned with his tail for Timberpaw to stop as well. He briefly glanced around the clearing and smiled at the sight. "So this is the mossy hollow. I guess this is where you'll gather moss for the elders," he purred. "It also looks like a great place for battle practice. Fernfeather really found a good spot here."

Melonburr sat and nodded. "Go ahead and try for it. I believe in you." He said. He licked his paw and brought it over his ears and face. He wondered what prey Brightpaw would go after. With two mice and a rabbit a vole or shrew would br cool but so would another mouse.

Mistpaw looked up as he saw someone approach. "Yes I'm Mistpaw. This is my mother Wrenwillow." He said to Crescentsmoke. "It's nice to meet my new mentor." He said.
Petalpaw grinned as Cherryfire came up to her. "Hello it's fine that you aren't clanborn. It just means we can learn alot from each other." She said. She pondered what they should do. "Maybe we could talk a walk in a direction the others haven't gone yet? And talk about our backgrounds?"
Brindlepaw nodded when Hawksky asked if it was him. "Yes I am. I think I should only have a moon or so of training left. So you won't have to work too long." He said. "Do you want to go hunting or stick close to camp?" He asked.
