Thunderpaw looked around the clearing. He was sitting outside of the apprentice den. He wanted to go do something, but he had know friends and his mentor was out hunting. He hadnt been able to go with them though. He sighed. "Biy, I sure wish I had a friend in WindClan. And I cant go out to explore without getting permision! And its not like any cat here would go with me." he sighed again. Why is it that no one likes me?he thought sadly.

An orange tabby shadow slipped silently up behind Thunderpaw, tail low to the ground as his mentor had taught him, and his ears forward, intent on Thunderpaw. His crouched lower to the ground as he prepared to pounce, hesitating for only a minute he hurled himself towards the apprentice in front of him. 'Surprise!' Tigerpaw yelled as he flew towards Thunderpaw.
Quickpaw, who had been sitting in some nearby bushes, jerked her head up as she heard her brother's yell. She grinned as she watched him come closer to Thunderpaw. Her own pelt was marked just the same as Tigerpaw's, only her fur was long and her brother was slightly larger than her. She flicked her tail in amusement as she watched quietly from her hideout.

Thunderpaw lunged at Tigerpaw playfully. He swatted at his legs, tripping him. He lauohed as he rooled on the floor. "Never underestermate the Thunder! I am a great fighter!" he yowled, pinning Tigerpaw to the ground.

Tigerpaw growled playfully and started to shove at Thunderpaw, but before he could unpin himself, Quickpaw leapt across the small distance between them and tackled Thunderpaw, knocking him off of Tigerpaw. She disengaged him quickly, leaping away from him quickly, true to her name, hopping away easily on tiptoe, watching Thunderpaw's every movement. Tigerpaw pushed himself up and grinned at Thunderpaw. 'She's good ain't she? Betcha can't guess how she got her name!' He stood up and shook the dust from his pelt.

"She is good! You lucky you have kin in your Clan!" he lunged at Quickpaw, throuwing her off balance. He ran back to the appentice den and ploodded down in front of it.

Quickpaw caught herself and then pranced after Thunderpaw, swatting at him a little and then sitting down in front of the apprentices' den also. Tigerpaw followed them with a grin and sat down. 'So, what have you been doing today? he quiered curiously. 'We've been ahuntin'.' he grinned. Quickpaw nodded. 'That's always fun, at least for me. Tigerpaw don't like it 'cause he's so slow.' she teased with a grin, ducking as Tigerpaw swiped at her.

Thunderpaw was stuned. These cats had never talked to him before and he hadnt given them a reason to talk to him now. "I havent been doing anything really. I have just been sitting here, waiting for something to do." he sighed. It felt good talking to other cats without them wallking away.

Tigerpaw grinned. 'Have you found anything to do?' He giggled, glancing at Quickpaw. 'Hey hey hey! Brownpaw! Come over and say hi!' Tigerpaw called out to a brown tom that was walking by with some prey in his mouth. Brownpaw's ear twitched as Tigerpaw called to him and Brownpaw called back through his prey. 'Justa minute, needa but thith prey away.' Quickpaw grinned as Brownpaw dropped his prey into the kill pile and headed back to where everyone was sitting. Quickpaw looked at Thunderpaw. 'Brownpaw didn't join too long ago, and he's great!' Brownpaw trotted up, nose twitching and ears swiveling around to be sure of where everyone was. He sat down with a smile. 'Hullo everyone!' he blinked his unseeing eyes quietly. Only Tigerpaw and Quickpaw knew of his blindness for he had gotten very good at using his ears and eyes for everything.

"Um, not to be rude or anything, but what made you guys decide to talk to me now?" he flicked his oddlycolored tail and licked his sriped chest. He glared at the three cats between licks. He wasnt quiet sure he trusted them yet, but they seemed nice.

Brownpaw put his head to the side. 'Well I for one haven't been around for too long, ain't had time to talk to many accept for Tigerpaw and Quickpaw. Plus I like to keep busy.' he smiled. 'I'm glad to meet you now though.' He didn't see Thunderpaw's glares and so was not set back by them.
Quickpaw blinked at the question. 'Well, I usually don't run around talking to every cat that comes here as soon as they get here.' She licked one of her paws. 'What's it matter anyway? We're talking to you now, and we all have things that we need to do around here. At least me and Tigerpaw and Brownpaw do. We have been busy, don't have time to just sit 'waiting for something to happen'.' Her ears went back slightly.
Tigerpaw shifted uncomfortably. 'Quickpaw.' he warned quietly, only loud enough for her to hear. Raising his voice louder, so that Thunderpaw could hear, he meowed. 'As she said, we have been pretty busy of late. I'm sorry if we've offended you.' He said this placidly, taking as little notice of Thunderpaw's glares as Brownpaw did.

Thunderpaw wasnt shore if he beleaved them, but he smiled anyway and relaxed. Maybe they are telling the truth. Just because the warriors queens and elders dont like me doesnt mean these guys dont! he thought cheerfully. "So, what do you guys want to do? I have been dieing to do something!" he meowed.

Brownpaw shrugged. 'Well we could talk, or wrestle, or hunt.. he went on with other things that they could do then he paused. 'Do you like water?' he asked curiously. He Tigerpaw and Quickpaw had secretly grown used to water and enjoyed playing in it quite often now.
Quickpaw said nothing, still irritated about the glares that she had recieved and the question that Thunderpaw had put to her, her brother and her friend. She went on washing herself, not looking at Thunderpaw and just concentrating on her pelt, only stealing a glance at Tigerpaw or Brownpaw every so often.
Tigerpaw sighed as he saw that Quickpaw's quick temper had been raised. He tried to ignore it and turned his attention to Thunderpaw again. 'Yeah, do you like water? If you do we have a great swimming hole that we like to hang out in.' He grinned as he remembered it. He was enjoying his apprenticehood, in fact he was probably the first apprentice to want to stay an apprentice forever.

[{try to keep your posts at least five sentances long, I know you can do it because you've been doing it  }] Brownpaw tilted his head to the side. ' What would you like to do?' he asked curiously, with a smile. He looked in Thunderpaw's general direction, but not quite right at him. He blinked his eyes slowly and then gave a yawn. He had been hunting all morning and was a little tired, but he kept his head up, looking towards Thunderpaw and waiting for his answer patiently. Patiently, yes he always had been rather patient, despite his rough past and disabilities. He twitched his tail, having felt a big crawling over it and tickling it. |

Thunderpaw thought for a second. "Okay, we can go swim. I not against getting my fur wet." he purred and looked at the other cats. He picked up his paw and drew it over his face, waiting for the others to agree. "Or we could hunt. I dont care whicj one."
