"Don't worry kits, I got her." she purred.

Oakclaw sat down in the clearing, waiting for his apprentice to come. His licked a paw and swiped it over his ears. He then licked his chest fur, still patiently waiting.

Mistpaw padded up to her new mentor. She couldn't believe she was finally an apprentice but, at the same time, she felt a little bit of fear spark inside of her. All of her 'what if's?' flooded her mind. She shook the thoughts away and approached Oakclaw, she was excited to begin training.

Oakclaw looked at Mistpaw. "We're going to go hunt today, Mistpaw.", he said. "Follow me. I know the best hunting spot."

Mistpaw nodded, "Okay" and then padded to Oakclaw's side, eager to begin hunting, after all, how hard could it be?

Soulpaw ran out of the Apprentices den and shook himself free of the sleepliness. He'd been awake all night long and he was really tired. He went over to a dark place and sat down by himself. He sat hoping someone would come over and give him some company.

Well, not really - the dirt itself was a bit bumpy, but it was obviously clearer than it'd been moments ago. Honeykit looked to her paws, and then at the tunnel, and then at Pricklepaw, and then at herself again. What was he. . .

"Oh!" She chirped, feeling the need to bounce but keeping herself firmly on the ground. Looks like her last idea had worked after all! "Here I go!" She said, before rushing forward for a second and nearly squishing the bug underneath her paws. With wide, worried eyes, the ginger kit whispered a quick "Sorry," before crouching down and scooting forward, making her way down the tunnel carefully. Thank Starclan they weren't in some confusing cave system.

A purr rose in Pricklepaw's throat. If she wasn't careful, the beetle was sure to be squished before they ever reached the tunnel entrance! At least she seemed to have worked out the right amount of pressure to put on it, although the apprentice still had an inkling of doubt the bug would survive. The poor thing was bound to be hurt after being dragged around like that.

As Honeykit dashed past, Pricklepaw pressed against the edge of the tunnel to let her through. He followed carefully in her pawsteps, jaws parted to taste the air. He didn't feel like coming out of here and running into one of the warriors... He was sure to have his ears clawed off if they found out where he and Honeykit had gone--even if they were still technically in the camp.

"We're here. Sniff the air. Open your mouth. Tell me what you smell.", Oakclaw said to Mistpaw.

Mistpaw looked up at the tall trees and the cloudless blue sky, "I smell, the trees, the scent of the cats that were hunting here earlier and a mouse".

"Good. Now, look at your surrounds and find the mouse. When you see it, do this.", Oakclaw said, getting into a hunter's crouch, stalked towards a twig, and then pounced. He then bit the twig as if it was a prey item's neck. "Make sure your tail is off the ground and that it's not high in the air or else the prey will see you and hear you. And make sure your belly is not touching the ground.", he added. "Oh, and make sure you're downwind and not upwind. If you're upwind the prey, and your enemies, will smell you."
