Grayish white paws thudded on the ground as Duskfire ran out of the camp entrance and into the woods. He glanced back every once in a while to make sure the two apprentices were following. A quiet purr formed in Duskfires chest he was away from the restrictions of the camp and in the forest now, he was free from the others except for the two young apprentices behind him. He bounded up a hill in a few long steps. He stopped and turned around waiting for the two young cats. Excitement burned in his eyes he loved being out of the camp. Winterpaw ran out behind Duskfire. Before long she was struggling to keep up with the older cat. Well he's different from before she thought growling silently at the cats fast pace. When he stopped on the hill she slowed to a stop a couple pawsteps away. She turned to Buffalopaw. "He's so....grouchy all the time in camp...how can you stand being his apprentice?" she whispered.

Buffalopaw kept his pace with Duskfire, only a mouse length away from the tom. He mentor had made him run faster every time they were out here, even if Duskfire never saw it. When they stopped, Buffalopaw sat down and scratched behind his ear with his back leg. "Ussually, when I see him, we're training so he's really not all that grouchy around me." He meowed, licking her cheek friendly.
--------
Volumeheight padded up behind his apprentice, his fur was glossy and strait. He looked over to Duskfire and made his way to the other tom. "So, which training do you want to teach them?" He meowed.

Winterpaw purred and licked his cheek back. "Thanks for asking me to come with you.....I know i'm not liked much among the others" she meowed looking at her paws. Inside his mind Duskfire was telling the cat to go away but on the outside he looked at the tom. "It depends on what you have and havent taught Winterpaw" He meowed trying to force his voice to sound friendly enough.

Volumeheight shrugged. "She just became my apprentice so nothing yet. What about Buffalopaw?" He asked, flicking his tail to the brown tom. He sat down and layed his white tail over his paws, his orange stripped back rose and fell ever so slightly. He was good at pretending he could not breathe and had hoped to teach his apprentice this one day. But when he was assigned Winterpaw, he was worried that she would not be able to handle it.
--------
Buffalopaw's ears pricked. "What are you talking about! I'm sure that everyone loves you!" He meowed, then flicked her ear with his tail. "I know that I do." He meowed softly, pressing his forehead with hers gently. He wanted to let her know that he loved her and always would, forever and no matter what. He looked over to Duskfire. "Duskfire, when ever we go out training, can we take Winterpaw and Volumeheight with us?" He meowed. "Please?" He meowed with pleading eyes. He was somewhat close to the tom, like father to son only he wasn't. Knowing his mentor, he would never love someone like his gentle and caring mother, Dewmountain.

Duskfire looked at his apprentice. Oh starclan he wanted to say no so bad but as he looked at his apprentices pleading eyes his response started to crumble before he could say it. Duskfire sighed heavily "Sure" He muttered trying to make his voice believable. He turned to Volumeheight "Was the fresh kill pile low?" he asked his eyes no matter how hard he tried to hide it still showed his relief and excitement at being out in the forest. Winterpaw purred at Buffalopaws response. She wondered if it would be wrong to tell him she loved him to...more than a friend. She had a million things she could tell Buffalopaw.

[Mind if I join? ^^] A small, tabby shape was walking silently through the moors of SkyClan territory, her short tail swinging contently. Suddenly, she heared a noise, and she dropped into a crouch, but then she heared a laugh and she stood strait. She eased into a steady trot, and she entered the Training Clearing, Winterpaw, Buffalopaw, Duskfire, and Volumeheight were training their apprentices studiously, and in the spur of the moment, Modernsky decided to access the young apprentices, and a smile spreach across her bron tabby face. "Hello Duskfire, Volumeheigh, Winterpaw and Buffalopaw." Modernsky entered the clearing, and drew a small paw over her ear.

Buffalopaw looked at Winterpaw with sad and low eyes. "You don't like me, do you?" He meowed, a bit sad. He looked up as he saw Modernsky and flicked his tail in greeting. He looked back to Winterpaw and touched her nose gently, waiting for her response with sad green eyes.
---------
Volumeheight nodded. "It was. I remember seeing Valorpaw take the last peice to the Elders den." He meowed, noticing the tom's look in his eyes. He obviously didn't want to have him and Winterpaw here, not to mention with them every day of training. He dipped his head respectfully to Modernsky, and meowed, "What brings you out here today?" He kept his ears flat against his cranium, to let Duskfire know what he knew.

Winterpaw dipped her head in greeting to the deputy then turned to Buffalopaw. "Of course I like you!" She meowed looking at him. "I just didnt know if you would mind if I said it..." she meowed softly. Duskfire nodded "Then we will hunt a little" he meowed. The tom turned to deputy dipping his head. He sighed quietly at Volumheights ears.

Modernsky flicked her tail to Buffalopaw and Duskfire, and slowly walked over to Volumeheigh. "Hunting, mostly." Modernsky chuckled slightly, parting her jaw and letting out a faint breath. Turning to face the apprentices, a smile spread across her brown tabby face as she saw the two facing each other and smiling with joy. "And I was near by, so I thought I would assess the young ones." Walking closer, Modernsky flicked Winterpaw's ear with her paw and turned to Duskfire. "Let's see what they can do!" Turning, Modernsky padded to a spot where she could gaze over the whole clearing without being in the middle ofit all, and she flicked her tail to the mentors to begin. "Hunting crouch." She informed them.

Volumeheight looked a bit confused. Why wasn't she with her own apprentice, teaching him or her, he forgot, how to do stuff like this. He sighed and shrugged to himself. "Um .... Okay." He meowed and flicked his tail to Winterpaw. "Alright," He meowed. He positioned himself in a perfect hunting crouch. "Just use this crouch when your hunting. Now remember, a mouse will see you before it smells you but a rabbit will do the oppisite." He meowed and looked around. His ears pricked when he heard a small mouse nibbling on a seed and stalked close to it. When he was close enough, he lept, pinning the helpless creature to the ground, and sunk his teeth into it. He returned with the mouse in his jaws and burried it in a hole. "Now you try." He meowed to Winterpaw.

Duskfire got into the hunters crouch. He thought he had taught his apprentice this already but it was better to be safe than sorry. "Buffalopaw follow my moves." he meowed. "Be very silent and always keep the wind blowing your scent away and not towards the prey" he meowed. His nose caught scent of a thrush. Before the bird could fly off with a seed Duskfire had silently lept into the air and killed in with a quick snap of its neck. He turned to Buffalopaw and flicked his tail motioning for him to try. Winterpaw copied her mentors movements and sniffed the air. She turned quietly at the scent of a vole and locked her eyes on her prey. She lept at the creature and right before it ran off she killed it with her teeth.

Buffalopaw watched his mentor and began to copy him. Looking around, he found nothing, but he soon found mole, big, fat, a bit ugly looking, he never took his eyes off it. 'I'll catch this one for you Winterpaw.' He thought and lept once he was close enough. He slashed the animals faces with his claws and then went for the kill, claws latched on the skin and teeth digging into the neck. Soon it went limp and he came back, tail and head up high, and laid it infront of Winterpaw gently on the ground. "For you." He purred.
--------
Volumeheight nodded. "That was very good Winterpaw." He meowed, then turned to Buffalopaw. "Same with you. You both did good." He purred. He looked over at Modernsky. "What did you think of them?" He asked the Deputy.

Modernsky thought about what she just saw, they were good, especially Buffalopaw, Modernsky guessed that he'd been taught the crouch before. The scents of the fresh-kill wafted over to the brown tabbys nose, and she longed to lung for the food and eat it right there. But she heald herself back. 'Very good, both of you." Modernsky walked closer to Volumeheight. She turned to whisker in his ear. "Truthfully, how do you think they did?" Volumeheight was a trusted warrior of hers, and she wanted her opinion.

Winterpaw purred happily. "Thank you...for you" she meowed pushing her prey to Buffalopaw. She liked him so much it felt so good to be with him. She looked at the deputy as she talked her mentor.

Volumeheight nodded his head. "I think they did exelent." He meowed.
--------
Buffalopaw purred and licked the she-cats nose. "You really shouldn't Winterpaw." He meowed. "After all, I ate before we left so I'll be fine." He meowed, rubbing his cheek with hers.
