Apprenticeship

Hey thanks Brambleshadow! What happend?

Goldenpaw waited lazely around for something to happen. She just sat outside the med. cat den. She saw a leaf and started chasing it. When she stopped, she looked at the ground panting hard. She noticed she was not in camp any more. A cat was running in to camp. It was not wind clan either.

Are we going to delete this subject since no one is using it anymore?

NOOO!! This topic was supposed to be my apprenticeship!!

"OK Blackclaw, what shall we practice?" purred Nightpaw.

ooc-- Yes Goldenheart1, this is nighpaw's apprentice training.

Blackclaw meowed "I will show you how to attack." he crouched and got ready to spring. "When you want to attack... You should crouch low and unleash your claws then pounce and hold. If the cat you are on tries to roll over, jump off quickly." he explained, doing the movment.

occ/// ............. I forgot what was happening in the very begining. I haven't really read the first page in along time.

"OK,"mewed Nightpaw, she crouched,unsheathed her claws and sprung, then quickly jumped off, ready for the next move."Should I attack when they are getting up?" she mewed.

Blackclaw thought. "If they are weak yes. If they aren't, you should try the front paw blow. With your claws out, bring your front paw down hard on the opponent's head." Blackclaw did the front paw blow on a pile of leaves

"Okay," mewed Nightpaw, she brought her paw down and whacked the same pile of leaves her mentor had. "I'm glad I get to work on more fighting before I have a real fight!!"

"Yes, you will make a fine warrior!" Blackclaw meowed. "Now... I will teach you how to hunt." he added, sofining his voice. "What do you smell?"

"Rabbit!" softly hissed Nightpaw, she looked around hoping to spot the prey. She saw it and flicked her tail to show her mentor she had found it."Now what?"

"Stalk up closely and keep your hanches down." he said, showing his apprentice the motion. "Then pounce."

"Okay," mewed Nightpaw, she left her mentor,slowly stalking the rabbit. She was a bare foxlength away when she pounced! The rabbit had taken off to late, Nightpaw quickly made her kill and proudly dragged it back to Blackclaw."Was that good?" purred Nightpaw.

Blackclaw smiled. "Very good! You'll make a warrior in no time!" he purred. "Let's go back to camp. You can take that to the Elder's then get your share, then we can go back to training." he added.

"I hope the Elders will be pleased," purred Nightpaw through rabbit fur.

"They will." Blackclaw promised.

"Lightfoot and Morningpelt really liked it, Are we really going to do some fighting!" mewed Nightpaw enthusiastically.

"Yes. Why yes we are!" Blackclaw purred.

"So, what first?" purred Nightpaw, patient but trembling with excitement.

"Ok, if a warrior is trying to swip at you, duck and roll." he meowed.

"Okay," her mentor swiped at her head and Nightpaw ducked and rolled, then turned and swiped at her mentor, who repeated the move. "Good?" mewed Nightpaw.

Blackclaw nodded. "Very good." he meowed. "I think we should go find Icefur and Goldenpaw." he added. Longstripe padded down the hill. "Their found." she hissed softly. "Thier mates."

Brightstar padded into the clearing. "Longstripe, take Icefur and Goldenheart home. I will give them a punishment later." she growled. "Blackclaw, may I talk to you?" she meowed. Blackclaw nodded and walked to his leader. Agter they talked for a few heartbeats, Brightstar turned to Nightpaw. "You are ready to be a warrior." she meowed.
