meadowpaw opened her maw a yawn and rolled over, the sun peered down into her nest and had caused her to arouse. the night before it just been endless nightmares so she had to get up and walk around in the forest to finally get some sleep. so last night she crashed and now was feeling alive and ready to for training. meadowpaw bounded over to all the commotion and sat beside pinepaw, she gracefully curled her tail around her paws. meadowpaw was never the one to care what she looked like, her fur was ruffled from sleep and moss was still clinging to her pelt. she quickly shook off the moss and just smoothed her pelt a little. meadowpaw then turned her gaze back to pinepaw and gave him a small smile."what's going on?"the small brown and white she-cat quietly asked her friend.
as meadowpaw waited for a response she tuned into what was going on, Eaglestrike must have been ordering Timberfur the deputy around once again. it was nothing new apparently from what she heard they were old rivals and showing each other up at any moment possible. meadowpaw loved her mentor but she had to agree that he was a bit annoying at times. she simply sighed and turned to look at moonshine and gave her small smile, meadowpaw had to admit that moonshine wasn't afraid to stand up for herself if needed.

Pinepaw turned to see Meadowpaw next to him, and purred a greeting. "I don't know," he mewed in mock surprise. "It would seem that... our mentors... must be rivals or something!" He flicked his ears. "Who would've guessed it?" He smiled, then answered Meadowpaw's question more seriously: "I think Eaglestrike just told Timberfur to take both of us out... hopefully battle training or something." He kneaded the ground with his forepaws, anxious to get going but not wanting to interrupt his mentor. Timberfur was probably already nettled by Eaglestrike; if Pinepaw butted in, the young apprentice feared he would end up clearing away moss in the elders' den for a moon.

The thin tabby tom had his claws dug deeply into the soft yet rough bark of an old pine; he was in the topmost branches, and it was one of the tallest trees around. From here, he had a brilliant view of the stars, of the forest, too, but mostly just the stars. "So far away," he murmured, his eyes huge and round as always; they glittered with a gleeful sort of insanity, yet anyone who met them would be able to instantly tell that this cat was, perhaps, the cleverest cat they'd ever met. Swiftspark's claws, which were now dug into the tree, were rarely used; he couldn't fight, and he loathed battle. He was far too clumsy to hunt, as well. He was slightly mad - eccentric - but he was brilliant. His mind was his one great weapon, to make up for his lack of decent warrior skills.
Swiftspark often left the camp at night to wander around the territory; after all, he was a warrior, not a naughty apprentice sneaking out. He always would say that he'd gone out hunting early, but his story was often marred by the fact that the tabby warrior was a poor hunter.
Now, at the top of the tree, Swiftspark watched the stars begin to fade as their light was overshadowed by that of the sun, creeping up over horizon. "Look at that view," Swiftspark sighed, leaning forward and slipping off the branch. He managed to grab hold of it with his front paws and pull himself back up. "It's lovely," he went on, smiling as if nothing had happened. Then he froze. "Ah, Timberfur will be sending out the dawn patrol soon, I believe," he told himself before scrambling down the branches of the tall pine as quickly as he could, snagging his pelt on tree branches. As he neared the ground, he lost his grip on one of the more slippery branches, one whose bark had been stripped off, and tumbled to the forest floor, landing in a bush.
"Ow," he muttered, picking prickly brambles out of his fur; shaking himself, he raced towards the camp, his paws flying. The only physical activity Swiftspark was good at was running, and he was moving quickly now, making his way to the camp at high speeds. As he did so, his mind ran, too, train of thought racing away and creating and solving puzzles for himself; he was always mentally preoccupied. Finally, after what seemed like ages, Swiftspark shot through the camp entrance and, panting, meandered over to Timberfur. "Lovely morning we're having," he commented obliviously, his pelt full of pine needles. "Are you sending out patrols?" He shifted his weight slightly; he'd always only just managed to put up with being "led" by another cat. In his past, he'd always been the one in charge, and he had to admit that he preferred it that way. He had nothing against Timberfur's ability... he was a great deputy. But Swiftspark was, he had to admit, a terrible warrior, and he sometimes - frequently, really - wondered if he'd do better in Timberfur's position.

"Ivypaw."

Warrior name is Ivyfrost.

"Best of the best, naturally."

Conceited and shallow, Ivypaw is an apprentice with an arrogant personality. She thinks of nothing bar herself, and distances herself from the other apprentices, thinking herself better than them in every way, shape and form. Her tongue is sharp, and she speaks her mind whenever possible - meaning she often ends up with a punishment. She couldn't care less for the clan's welfare, and all she thinks about is new techniques for keeping her fur from getting dirty while hunting, or for keeping her ears bushy. Despite not being dependable on delivering the food to the elders on time, there's one thing you can safely say about little Ivypaw: if there's a beauty treatment of some kind using some unheard of herb or some rare flower, she'll know about it, and chances are she's already been trying it out.
Underneath the self-flattery and arrogant behaviour, however, this apprentice is actually quite insecure. She uses her conceitedness as a way of making herself feel better by putting others down, and she makes for herself a fantasy of which she can pretend she's the best of the best, and that she can feel secure inside her little world. Perhaps one day she will embrace her reality for what it is and will stop the behaviour, but don't expect that to come anytime soon.

"I am, of course, beautiful in every way."

Ivypaw is a delicate being, with silky grey fur and vivid blue eyes. A lot of time and trouble goes into keeping that pelt free of debris and dirt, and, to her credit, she does keep it clean. She is of an average weight, but is smaller than most, and is light on her paws. Her tail has a black tail-tip, as though she had dipped it in soot, and her underbelly and chest are a pale grey. She has no "real" markings, as such; she is just an ordinary grey, although her nature may lead you to think otherwise with her self-indulgent ways.

Hope this is alright, and there are still spaces! If there's any problem with my form I'll happily alter it. c:

»Timberfur's whiskers twitched again and he pawed at the ground, stopping his tail from flicking all over the place. He noticed that the rest of the camp was waking up and most of them were listening in on everything that was being said in dusty clearing and the scent of his apprentice hit him calmly. He turned around, pinpointing Pinepaw before stalking over to him, throwing the words, "Well then, you're on guard duty tonight. Do not forget.", over his shoulder. Timberfur nodded his head in greeting when reached the apprentice, who was sitting next to Meadowpaw. "Good morning Pinepaw, are you ready for some battle practice with Meadowpaw?" He asked kindly, hoping Pinepaw was as excited as Timberfur was. He looked around the clearing and decided that he should set a few patrols. Speaking to the Clan, he mewed, "As for patrols, Moonshine you take Nightheart and someone else on the dawn patrol and Larksong, see if you can find Swiftspark and take him and Guppypaw hunting. That's all for now."

meadowpaw quickly sat up when timberfur asked if they were ready to go battle training, she smiled and nodded. then bounded across camp to the entrance, her tail was swishing across the ground, and her paws were itching to go out. meadowpaw looked over at pinepaw,"come on lazy bones!" she teased as she started to run out of the camp and into the forest.

her pelt ruffled from the breeze she stopped and waited for pinepaw, her breathing was heavy from running. she took a deep breath trying to regain it back to normal. she preened her chest fur as it was that as a robins [ruffled all over]. meadowpaw peered into camp as she saw pinepaw finally stand.

[sorry for the short post i didn't really know how to reply without her being obnoxious and running away into the forest. ^^]
