Swiftheart turned towards Ivypaw, purring. "I'd love for you to get the experience. There's always room for improvement. You're up for coming, right?" He smiled slightly, admiring his apprentice a bit. It won't be long before she's a warrior. But I won't stop training her until I hear her name shouted by all of my clanmates. Swiftheart shook his head, attempting to clear his thoughts. He looked back to Sparrowfoot and nodded as she left. He then returned his gaze to his apprentice.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxＩＶＹＰＡＷ

The grey tabby nodded as Sparrowfoot spoke, her paws itching to take her out of camp. Ever since she had the dream of stalking a water vole, she had wanted to feel the exhilaration of giving chase to her prey. Ivypaw only hoped that Swiftheart would agree with Sparrowfoot and not make her first perform the check on the elders that she openly suggested on doing. Although she liked the elders and their company, and she knew that the whole clan were in their debt from the old cats' service to them all, she had probably heard each and every one of their fables around ten times or more now. There were so much more interesting things to do than crack a flea between your teeth or organise bedding, like do warrior duties, particularly hunting. Ivypaw realised she didn't take in all of what Swiftheart was saying; she had been too caught up in her thoughts.

Panic flared in the apprentice for a second. A warrior would always listen to their clanmates! What would Swiftheart say if he knew that she hadn't been paying her full attention to him? Given his fair and calm nature, Ivypaw guessed he was allowing her to join the hunting patrol. So, instead of admitting to her mentor that she didn't catch what he said, she answered him. "Er, yes, of course!" she meowed, trying to replace any tone of uncertainty with her eagerness to hunt.

iiiiiThe black and white tom stood at the top of a rock, watching over the clan. His bright, yellow eyes flickered as he looked at the russet, brown, and amber colored leaves, drifting around his pelt. The wind brushed into his pelt, making it ruffle slightly, but he didn't mind. Fallenstar's ears perked up when he had heard his warriors speaking, and that moment, he reminded himself. I must choose a deputy once the sun sets and make Tigerpaw a warrior soon as well...{open}

iiiiiCherryfur's ears had perked up slightly when she'd notice the brown she-cat. "Good morning, Sparrowfoot," she purred with a brief swish of her tail, " Ah, yes, I would certainly enjoy a patrol, perhaps I could gather my Apprentice as well?" Cherryfur's eyes glanced around for the grey she-cat, normally she was awake, but the calico she-cat wasn't for sure. I'm sure Mistpaw would enjoy patrolling with an older Apprentice, she thought quietly to herself.

She noticed Nightpaw, his black pelt making him easily noticed apart from the rocky, grey and tan, patched ground. "Good morning, Nightpaw." Speckledpaw mewed in her usual gentle self, sitting beside him.

iiiiiTigerpaw glanced down, towards the younger Apprentice as he shot bounds of questions at him. Opening his muzzle, trying to reply, Tigerpaw flicked his tail in annoyance. He finally shot back Icepaw a sharp meow. "One question at a time, you know I can't tell you everything, in fact I-" The brown tom paused when he'd heard his mentor speak. Fun? What fun? His tail lashed once more, then he nodded his head slightly towards the Apprentice, padding up to Eaglewing as they walked. "Yes?" Tigerpaw asked calmly, eyes carefully remaining on his mentor.

The mentor appraised his apprentice with a proud eye for a moment or two, before beginning to speak, tail swishing languidly behind him as he spoke; "Your warrior ceremony is coming up soon, as I have judged you and told Fallenstar that you are ready. Today will likely be your last patrol as an apprentice, and I wanted you to know that I couldn't have been more proud and honoured to have you as mine. You have listened well, and learned quickly, and upheld the morals of the warrior code. I am sure that your bravery and dedication to your clan will carry over into your warrior duties, and you will make one of the finest that the clan has ever seen. I ask only if you have any concerns, or worries about your warrior ceremony? I know I was nervous when I was first made a warrior."

Sparrowfoot bobbed her head in a nod, with a flick of her hears to acknowledge the fact that she understood. "Of course, Cherryfur. I'm sure Mistpaw would be glad to join us, and she would surely benefit from the experience of patrolling with an elder apprentice. We will wait for you near the the warrior's den." She stood, with a friendly swish of her tail, and nodded to Cherryfur again, before padding back across to Ivypaw and Swiftheart, seating herself next to her fellow warrior and curling her tail around her feet. "Cherryfur will be joining us," she mewed, "and so may Mistpaw."

ｍｉｓｔｐａｗ

Mistpaw nodded, somewhat absently, and then ducked her heads respectfully to the elders. "I cannot stay any longer, I am afraid. I am glad you are well, Goosewing. If you would tell Rosepetal that I greet her when she awakens, and make sure that the kill I brought for her is delivered safely, it would be a great help. I must go, and see if my mentor requires me." She backed out of the elder's den, and back into camp. Her brother must have gone out on patrol, as he wasn't awake yet, but she spotted her mentor not too far away. Quietly, she padded to the calico she-cat, and daintily sat, facing her. "Good morning, Cherryfur."

Aspenleg kept an amused look on his face as Mistpaw ducked out of the den, but when he was sure she was gone, he turned to Goosewing with a flick of his tail, expression turning to one of worry. "Old friend," he rumbled, "How are you truly, today? Your cough sounds like it is getting worse. Starclan knows you're getting old, but if you are in pain from it, perhaps you ought to see Leafsong about it. I am sure she has herbs to help you, if you would let her. Your kit worries for you, you know."

iiiiiCherryfur gave Sparrowfoot calm nod of her head, smiling as she watched the brown cat walk to the small group. The she-cat soon began to walk towards the Apprentice den, thinking her own Apprentice would be in there, perhaps still asleep. Though, she then heard pawsteps behind her, and smiled when her Apprentice had walked in front of her. "Oh, hello, Mistpaw, I was just going to look for you, would you like to go on a hunting patrol with Ivypaw, Swiftheart, and Sparrowfoot? I think it would be great experience for you." She meowed happily, flicking her ears towards the other three cats.

iiiiiGoosewing's pale eyes watched as the young she-cat walk away happily with a nod, and a sudden hurt feeling fell onto him. He missed being a young tom, frolicking around and chasing ducks, but perhaps Starclan would welcome him soon, though he never enjoyed thinking about it. When the ginger tom spoke he let out a sigh and looked towards the ground, only to cough a slight meow. "Oh, Aspenleg...I just don't know how long I'll be here...I- I don't want Leafsong to waste any herbs on me...But if it will worry you less-" He paused, taking in a wheezing breath of air, and thought about his son. Goosewing's son was well-grown, a strong tom at that. He was leader and had many other things to worry about, but the old tom knew Fallenstar cared. "I suppose I could see...Leafsong."

iiiiiTigerpaw took great pride in what his mentor had told him, and held his head high with a light grin. "Thank you, Eaglewing, you truly have made an amazing mentor, and I will always remember that throughout my life as a warrior," the tabby tom spoke with a purr, and looked towards the older tom in admiration. He wanted to be exactly like him, but Tigerpaw would never show such softness to anyone. Tigerpaw was curious about the Warrior and began to think when his mentor had asked him if he'd have any concerns or questions. "Actually yes, if I may ask, what was vigil like for you? Was it strange having to sit quietly and watch over camp during the night?" He asked calmly, sniffing the air as they walked side by side.

His mentor thought about this question in quiet contemplation for a few moments, before nodding slowly. "I will admit, it was a little odd. You're so used to seeing the camp so full of activity, to see it quiet and dark like that... it's different. But it wasn't too bad. I was lucky, my vigil was on a beautiful night where I could see Silverpelt watching over me, and I knew that Starclan would be sitting my vigil with me. Sparrowfoot was with me too, and while we couldn't talk, it was nice to have her physical comfort. Perhaps you and Ivypaw will be able to sit the vigil together, is she not meant to be a warrior soon, too?" he concluded with a curious mew, tilting his head a little at his apprentice.

The grey she-cat blinked at her mentor wordlessly for a few moments, before mewing; "Of course, Cherryfur. I quite agree with you, the experience will do me well, especially with an apprentice such as Ivypaw, who is about to become a warrior." Her blue gaze remained on her mentor, unwavering, as she asked; "Are we ready to go now?" She stood again, ready to move off if her mentor said that they would be departing.

Aspenleg's ears flattened with worry for his friend, as he shuffled a little closer to groom Goosewing in a companionable manner, long strokes of his tongue being as soothing as possible. "Perhaps that is the case, but I know that your son would worry far less about you, should you see Leafsong. Though your days may be short now, I am sure that there is still some fight left in you, and you do not strike me as the one to give up in your old age." He tilted his head a little, to make sure Goosewing caught his kind expression. "See Leafsong. Even if she cannot help, perhaps she can make the end days easier."
