Re: Cattail Pond
Autumnpaw | @Cherry~ post 15/100 The calico apprentice listened to every word that left her mentor's mouth. There was no way she was going to miss anything that could be even remotely useful when she was a warrior. She looked into the water again, careful to move slowly so that nothing would get too scared. When Slatestripe finished talking, she was looking at him again. She was practically shaking in excitement as she thought of something to say, so he would know she had listened. She couldn't come up with much except for a nod. Okay. I understand. she said, contradicting herself after she immediately asked a question. How do I strike at a fish? she said with furrowed brows. This may have been a sensible question, but she still felt a bit dumb for asking. |

// Bluepaw tilted his head at the news. A den? Ok. He walked to the water, his front paws in the water, and when a fish darted where he wanted it to, the white-furred tomcat slammed his entire head down in the water and lifted up a gray fish in his jaws, killing it. \\ |

Slatestripe nodded. He was pleased to see that Autumnpaw seemed eager to fish. “That was going to be my next point,” he said. “Once you’re sure you’ve got the right positioning, you’ve got to watch the water for a sign of a fish. When you see one, you’ll strike your paw into the water and curl it like this.” He demonstrated with his paw “Then, you’ll pull the water toward you. The movement in the water will stop the fish from being able to easily move. Once the fish is within reach, grab it with your claws.” He turned his attention toward the pond to demonstrate. He remained as still as possible, amber eyes trained carefully on the water. Then, he saw a small sunfish come into view. He struck out with a paw and curled it, pulling the water toward him. The motion in the water prevented the fish from moving on its own accord, allowing Slatestripe to snap his paw and hook his claws in it. He flung it out of the water and nipped it to kill it. The whole motion took less than ten seconds. He didn’t expect Autumnpaw to be nearly that fast, since she was an apprentice. |

Re: Cattail Pond
Autumnpaw | @Cherry~ post 16/100 Her own amber eyes watched her mentor intently as he spoke, explained, and then fell silent after declaring a demonstration. She sat carefully so she didn't look into the water too much and so she didn't frighten the fish. When her mentor snapped into the water with a forepaw, she nearly jumped back. But, she had also seen the shine off the fish's little scales. So, she wasn't too surprised. Her white paws flexed her claws into the bank of the pond as she watched him nip it dead. Wow, I have a lot of work to do if I wanna be a warrior like Slatestripe she thought, studying the decent-sized fish. She looked into the water and didn't see much other fish yet. Can I try? she asked earnestly. She smiled up at Slatestripe and admired his catch with respect and awe. She really wanted to catch a fish. Maybe she could make someone proud. |
