5. Admiration
"Hey smokestep, teach me to do that thing again! Pleeeeeeeeease?" Wolfstar couldn't help but watch from afar as thunderkit asked smokestep yet again to teach him that hunting move. It was just a simple crouch, but thunderkit was determined to perfect it.
"Okay little one, watch me." Smokestep crouches down low, directly into an almost perfect hunting stance. He nodded to thunderkit, signalling that it was now his turn to follow what smokestep had just done. A little clumsy at first, thunderkit wobbles before managing to get the pose.
"Very good, just like that!" Smokestep praises the young tom, getting up from the crouching position and giving him an approving nod.
Wolfstar gently chuckled to herself. He was such a large, muscular tom and yet, his fondness for kits was quite admirable. He remained gentle and yet was quite passionate when it came to teaching younger cats. He would make a fine mentor. Maybe even a fine father one day too, but it was too early for wolfstar to be thinking these kinds of things.
Wolfstar lept up to the lookout ledge, trying to see what the rest of her clanmates were doing so that she could keep them all safe.

Smokestep looked up from his training, eager to teach thunderkit more if he had the time and energy to. His gaze caught sight of wolfstar on lookout ledge.
"Wow, she really is something." He couldn't help but whisper to himself.
"Hey smokestep, who are you talking about?" Thunderkit tilts his head, curiosity twinking in his cool blue eyes. Whoops, smokestep had completely forgotten that he was still teaching thunderkit. Wolfstar genuinely made him lose his train of thought. She left him almost breathless. He couldn't help but admire how watchful of the clan she was, how she always wanted to protect everyone and do things for the good of the clan. It must be hard to be a leader, but smokestep felt as though wolfstar was doing an excellent job at it. He felt that there was no one better in the clan to be the leader than her.
He shook his head, now was not the time.
"Oh, no one. Now, how about we show you that fighting move that you wanted to learn?" smokestep tried to get back on track, teaching thunderkit what he knew once again.
