//.\\Whitethorn\\.// [/color][/center] A big white tom padded silently through the forest... well as silent a such a big cat could get. He had Snake Rocks in his sights. Whitethorn didn't know why he had, but as soon as he'd left camp his paws turned toward the dangerous hunting grounds. Maybe because there were so many memories here... he and Jetfur had played her before he had left for RiverClan, that seemed like so long ago...
"Come on! Lets get something big to take back tot he fresh-kill pile!" Whitepaw yowled at his brother. Jetpaw bounded behind his brother, black paws racing as fast as he could go, "I know,I know! This is so exciting! Our first hunting trip as apprentices!" the little black tom purred toward his bigger brother. Whitepaw looked around for their mentors, the lazy fur balls were trailing behind Jetpaw! "Come ON Swiftsplash!" he complained at the silver tabby she-cat who was his mentor. "Watch your tone Whitepaw!" she scolded.
A bird flew away screeching at Whitethorn, shaking him from his day-dream. That had been a good time, but just a moon later all his siblings had left ThunderClan. He sighed, it was lonely without them. But it was nothing he could change, so Whitethorn raisedhis head up high, and tried to enjoy the nice day. [/size][/color]

A bushy tailed feline by the name of Blazepaw was out collecting herbs, once again. Ashstorm told him to go on out to find some more poppy-seeds, WHICH THEY HAD PLENTY OF, but of course, his mentor was just punishing him...
But what had he done? All he did was talk to Hailpaw, and hang out with his real friends. It was like Ashstorm just wanted medicine cat motives on his mind 24/7. Blazepaw was angered by that abit. Sure he was medicine cat apprentice of Thunderclan..but couldn't he live a regular life to, and balance out all the other medicine stuff?
Sighing to himself, the tom scented the area for the lone seeds and scanned the ground as he padded, deliberately slowly through the lone hunting grounds. Everything seeming to slow down as thoughts went through his head.
Is Ashstorm just worried that I'm not going to focus on my duties? Or is he just letting out his anger at me? Is Hailpaw that much of a distraction? The she-cat was awfully pretty, and deeply shy, he had to admit he admired her. Which did not mean he actually liked her, or had feelings for her, no way, that was against the medicine cat ways... Gah! Who was he kidding? Blazepaw had a full-blown crush on his paws...
Groaning out loud, Blazepaw's tail lashed as he moved down more, not even caring if he found any poppy-seeds. He had went the wrong way anyway, due to his lack of common sense, because he was so angry at his mentor. Ashstorm didn't have to yell at him like that in front of the others.
Blazepaw was not paying attention to anything, so he almost ran into a huge white blob, stopping instantly before colliding with it The big white blob turned out to be Whitethorn! Eyes widening slightly, because he wasn't sure if he had seen right, wouldn't want to bump into some enemy; he was so out of it, he could have walked onto Shadowclan territory and wouldn't even know it!
"Sorry Whitethorn." He apologized in a short mew, as he dodged around the warrior, quickening his pace. Blazepaw wasn't the easiest cat to start a conversation with, if it involved a warrior. I mean, a warrior was much higher ranked than himself, so he always got tongue tied when speaking to someone higher ranked than him. Except Ashstorm, he could talk to him, probably because he could relate to his mentor... Tail twitching, the apprentice suddenly tripped over a root and fell flat on his face.
"ow..." he murmured as he layed there, nose in mud. "Not my day at all..." he hissed, and lifted his head. Embarrassment washed over him almost instantly as he realized Whitethorn was still here.... great Starclan... He thought, tail drawing close to his side as he didn't move yet.

//.\\Whitethorn\\.// [/color][/center] "Ooof!" the warrior meowed in shock. He looked down at the apprenticed,miffed for a moment about getting the beejezus scared out of him, but the apprentice looked upset about something. His green gaze softened and he said in a nicer tone, "It's okay Blazepaw. How's the training going?" he flicked his tail playfully. "We all have bad days, I know I do..." he trailed off for a moment, "But! There's always tomorrow." Whtethorn mewed,surprised that he had said something so profound. His whiskers twitched with amusement. [/size][/color]

Getting up slowly, Blazepaw listened to what Whitethorn said. tomorrow, oh great...i can't wait.. He thought as he looked back at the warrior.
"My training's going swell." He meowed, wincing as he heard his own voice,it sounded bitter. But he couldn't help it..
Shaking his head, Blazepaw's tail flicked, "Sorry if I sound rude, but i've just had a hard day. But your right, there's always tomorrow." He meowed, breaking a fake smile.

Whitethorn looked at the apprentice, he looked upset. Great. he thought, the tom didn't relate well to young cats. He acted like one, and could go have fun with a group of apprentices, but he couldn't comfort a kit who had a thorn in it's paw. Or a troubled apprentice. He sighed. "Well, has Ashstorm taught you any hunting skills yet? If not maybe I can show you some stuff?" he smiled warmly at Blazepaw. Maybe he didn't give good advice, but he could teach cats how to hunt. And fight, he was much better at hunting than fighting. [/center][/size]

Blazepaw blinked and turned around to fully face Whitethorn. "Actually, Ashstorm hasn't taught me anything but the hunter's crouch." He admited, ear flicking.
He wondered if Whitethorn would be willing to actually teach him to hunt...? Ashstorm had been very distracted lately, it was like he didn't even have a mentor! More like a mother who told him to go do things for.
He seems to be willing to teach me.. The young apprentice thought as he finally smiled. "You would teach me how to catch something?" He meowed hopefully, moood changing completly now. He waited curiously for Whitethorn's reply.

Whitethorn purred happily, he loved teaching, fighting was his favorite, but hunting was fun too. He only disliked it because his white pelt stood out so much. "Sure, I'd be happy to teach you. I don't have an apprentice anyway, so it'll be good practice." he flicked his tail at the apprentice's ears playfully. "So first let's see you stalk something with that hunter's crouch you've learned. Do you smell any prey nearby?" The big white tom asked Blazepaw, he could faintly smell a vole and a few mice somewhere nearby. [/color]

The blazecolored apprentice smiled and nodded.
This was pretty neat! A break from medicine cat dutys! He scented the air acouple times, and within no time at all, Blazepaw scented a vole nearby, and two mice alittle beyond that.
"..I can smell a vole...and some mice." He informed Whitethorn, tail twitching as he looked to his, "mentor", or atleast play-mentor. ha!
He waited to see what the older warrior would say, he knew he had gotten the scents right.

Good! Now where are they?" Whitethorn's ear's flicked, listening for any signs of prey. He was impressed with the medicine cat apprentice, he was suprisingly good at hunting.

ooc: tiz okay. ;3Blazepaw paused and scented the air once again. The vole he could smell near the small bush to the left, and the mice...The mice were along the right side of the brush.
He motioned as he spoke "The vole is over there, by that little shrub...and the mice are along the right side by the other plants." He meowed softly, not wanting to be too loud and scare the prey off. His tail flicked as he looked at Whitethorn for his approval of where he had located the prey. He was sure he had gotten their locations correct.

Good! Go get 'em! he mewed softly, crouching down so the apprentice could have room to stalk the prey. He hoped his white pelt didn't give the two cats away. His claws gouged the earth in anticipation of the hunt.
