((HAHAHA BUT I GOT MY WISH TOO! I GOT ROYAL PETS YAY!))
Shadepaw looked back at his mentor and Dawnfrost.
"You just let them go?" he said, astounded.
"Yes," Dawnfrost replied. "Warriors don't fight if they don't need to. Remember that,"
"But-" he started.
"Enough," Palemoon ordered. "We are here to train. And you are not ready to fight anyway,"
Dawnfrost ignored the bickering then walked over to the river. She heard them suddenly stop and their eyes on her.
She stared intently at the water until she saw a glimmer of scales. When she had located the fish, quickly she pounced and killed the it. Then she jumped out of the water and shook her fur out, and put the prey next to where the two were.
"Don't eat it yet. It's your turn first," she said to Shadepaw. "Just concentrate. It's not much harder than catching a bird,"
Shadepaw did as he was told. He stared at the water, just as Dawnfrost had done, until he spotted another glimmer of more scales. When he'd found the fish, he did as Dawnfrost did, and pounced, but the fish quickly wriggles out of his grasp. Cursing, he leapt out of the water and shook his fur.
"Have a tighter grip," Palemoon called. "And kill it quickly. Staying afloat will come naturally, don't even think about that that hard,"
Shadepaw tried again. This time, he kept his claws unsheathed. When he'd spotted a fish, he jumped in again and threw his paws at it, and he felt it go limp. He threw it to where the others were.
"Nice," Dawnfrost nodded. "We should catch a few more, then return when it is Dusk,"
They fished for a while, until the sun barely peeked over the trees.
"Let's go," Palemoon meowed. "We've caught enough,"
They took their freshkill back to camp. IvyStar smiled at the large amount of prey they caught.
"Well done," she whispered to Palemoon as she went past.
Shadowpelt spotted them and his son, and couldn't help but be proud.
"You can take 2 of them to the elders," he ordered, but in a kinder tone than was usual.
"Yes, Shadowpelt," Shadepaw took two of the fish to the Elders' den.
"Well done Palemoon," Shadowpelt said. "You've been doing well,"
Palemoon bowed her head in thanks before taking her contribution of freshkill to the pile and taking one small fish for herself.
