A small brown tabby tom padded swiftly through Tall pines, his ears pricked and his senses alert for prey. He detected small prey in the undergrowth, crouching down and he crept to wards the scent. Smallpaw's hunting crouch was yet to be perfected, but it was substantial enough to catch the miniature bird.
The newly named apprentice looked up from where he'd been burying his catch. He felt as if there was another cat nearby, but couldn't confirm their presence. Shrugging, Smallpaw let the undergrowth swallow him up as he searched for more prey to take back for the clan.

Rosethorn watched the small brown apprentice. His hunting crouch was terrible. She knew she could do better when she was and apprentice. "You look like a lopsided badger!" she yowled. "Don't worry about the prey, you would have scared it off anyway!" Even though Smallpaw's crouch was exellent for an apprentice of that age, Rosethorn was convinced she was better than everyone else.

The apprentice whirled around, every hair on his pelt bristling. "Oh yeah, I'm sure you're such a natural hunter that you caught a peasant the day after you were born.", he spat. Smallpaw padded up to face the Thunderclan she-cat.
"I got it though, didn't I?", Smallpaw growled at Rosethorn. "Practice makes me better, and feeds the clan at the same time. Would you rather I not bother being a loyal member of my clan?" The young tom's amber eyes blazed in anger. He didn't even think of the consequences that his actions might lead to.

Rosethorn hissed at the young apprentice. "How dare you talk to me that way!? You must respect the warriors of your clan." She stopped and let her fur lay flat. 'What am I doing?"she thought to herself. "I'm sorry. I guess I was too hard on you. That was good for an apprentice of your age." She bowed her head in apology."I apologize, Smallpaw. You caught it, I must give you credit for that."

Smallpaw nodded, his fur also relaxing on his shoulders again. "That's alright Rosethorn", he meowed with a sigh. "I over-reacted." He paused. "Thanks", he added. The apprentice turned around, a new scent flooding over him. Mouse! Smallpaw lowered to a crouch, slightly better than the one he'd had before. Soon he pounced, landing squarely on the mouse's shoulders. He began to bury his second piece of prey, not daring to meet Rosethorn's gaze.

Rosethorn watched the small apprentice. "You are doing well."she mewed. "I will see you in camp." With that, she walked off. She was somewhat angry that she hadn't caught the mouse. She didn't want to snap at the apprentice again. She was trying to keep her temper under control.
