Patrol Duty

[Bloodfang]

Shrewpaw sat near the middle of Thunderclan camp jumping back and forth. He still needed a mentor but he could still do some type of patrol duty. He watched other cats pad around camp doing their own thing. He looked around for Coldstar or the deputy hoping he could find a way to convince them to put him in some type of patrol. He may not be the best...maybe the worst but he could only get better so they would probably let him go to learn.

Coldstar looked at little Shrewpaw and meowed sharply,"Wanting to go on hunting patrol?"Than Coldstar waved his tail alittle,"You must stay in camp till you have a mentor,unless Are deputy takes you."

[xx Crooked..thru and thru]

Patchedpaw came walking up. He waved his tail a little amused. "we could go in a pair" He asked hopefully. "We are perfectly able to hunt. " He said stretching the truth a little. How can an apprentice be good at hunting when he doesnt have a mentor. "We'll bring you back the biggest rabbit on our territory" Then he sat waving his tail back and forth in the Dirt.

Coldstar gave the two little apprentices a cold stare than he said,"Lets me find Are deputy,than I'll see."Coldstar licked his font paw and slightly said,"Ok Where to look."His voice was deep and proud.

[Bloodfang]

Shrewpaw head fell when Coldstar told him he couldn't hunt. He shifted his paws uncomfortablly looking discouraged. He jumped at the sound of another cat's voice but noticed it was patchedpaw and relaxed. Shrewpaw glanced around looking for the deputy when Coldstar mentioned the news.

Emberfoot shook her pelt and stretched as she entered the center of camp. A small yawn escaped her maw. "Why, hello, Coldstar. What's going on?" she asked her leader. Paws padded closer to him. "Is there anything I could do?" The deputy's tail twitched. Her eyes softened as they landed on the apprentices. She had always had a soft spot for little ones. I wonder if I could possibly take Sandpaw hunting with me later...?, she though silently to herself, suddenly reminded of her daughter.

[Haunted Memories]

"Emberfoot I would like you to take these two apprentices,and maybe your daughter hunting.Than We can have an apprentice ceremony,for the apprentices to have mentors."Coldstar stared down at Shrewpaw has he purred,the word Mentors.Than he looked at Patchpaw and meowed,"You will also get a mentor."

[:Panther:]

Emberfoot nodded. "Sandpaw has gone farther into her training than the other two, as I've been training her since Swallowtail's death and she is now 10 moons. Perhaps I could continue to mentor her? She's very absorbed in becoming a warrior, almost passionate... I was wondering if she was to receive a different mentor, that they would train her more liberally then a younger apprentice. She does have quite a lot of experience..." the she-cat stated to the leader quietly. The deputy turned her attention to the two apprentices. "Alright, then. Shall we go hunting?"

The third apprentice found her way quickly to her mother. They had started a hunting patrol, and she wanted to go with. Maybe they would get to hunt birds today. Sandpaw had alway gotten a thrill out of leaping into the air and dispatching a magpie. "Hey," she meowed to the others in greeting, "Mind if I come along?"

[Haunted Memories]

"I will be coming along to.I want to help train Shrewpaw at the monment,and Sandpaw will most likely go to train with Bramblestorm.We might have to make Sandpaw a warrior soon.For are clan is small."Than Coldstar looked around for Bramblestorm.

[:Panther:]

"A warrior?" said Sandpaw in disbelief. "Really?" She had always dreamed of becoming a warrior, and now she was so close to becoming one. A moment of happiness lifted her spirits, as she smiled with glee. She couldn't wait to become a full fledged warrior, so she could prove her skills to the clan.

Emberfoot smiled. Her daughter might soon be a warrior. She was growing up so fast. "Well, shall we go hunting now, or at least once Bramblestorm joins us?" she meowed softly. The deputy looked about for the brown tabby tom, hoping he would get the chance to go hunting as well, and meet her daughter.

[Haunted Memories]

Bramblestorm took to steped out of the Warriors den and saw the group of cats.His dark brown tabby tom,dashed over with his eyes glowing a gentle amber.Than he stared at Coldstar and Emberfoot,"Hello what do you need help with?"Bramblestorm stared at Sandpaw and the other apprentices."You need help training them?"He asked with a short smile.Than he stoped and meowed,"Or hunt from what I've heard?"The smile fadded as Coldstar meowed.

"Yes we are all going to go hunting."Coldstar got to his feet.Than looked around the camp."Blackhawk may join us soon.I would like to have a word with him.Sandpaw would take Shrewpaw and Patchpaw to the borders ok."Than Coldstar added,"Shadowclan's."Than with that Coldstar took off,heading for Shadowclan's borders first,Hoping Sandpaw and the rest were following.

[:Panther:]

Sandpaw turned to see the young warrior. By the looks of him he was around her age, rather young for a cat to be her mentor. But she paid no attention to that. Secretly, she thought he was rather dashing. "Hi. I'm Sandpaw," she meowed to him. "And you must be Bramblestorm." She gave him a friendly smile, trying to hide her slightly blushing cheeks. "Well, uh... Shall we go hunting?" she asked him, turning around to go follow the leader, Emberfoot a few mouse-lengths ahead of her.

[Haunted Memories]

Bramblestorm nodded at Sandpaw and said,"I am Bramblestorm,I'm only a half a moon younger than a newly named warrior should be."Than with that Bramblestorm dashed after Coldstar.
