Echopaw
She tried to help her mentor, and tried to scent prey, twitching her ears.

She scented doves, mice and some squirrels. Some scents were faded like they were there a while ago. Others were fresh."

I watched Lionpaw as he killed the bird and walked over to him watching were I stepped. "That was a good save for the catch. Though your pounce was a bit off, your stance also looked a bit wanky. Here look at my crouch," he showed him and explained. "Your legs need to be relaxed, legs further appart slightly. And when your wanting to catch something put all your power in your hind legs."

Echopaw
Scenting a squirrel nearby, she quickly dropped to her hunting crouch. Stalking stealthily, she was very close to the squirrel, who was gnawing on a nut... she was almost close enough to pounce until.... he paw crunched on some leaves, and the squirrel dropped the nut and ran off. "Mouse dung!" she hissed, straightening up.

She walked over to Echopaw and smiled. "You almost caught it, that was still great." She spoke quietly so other prey didn't hear her.

He peered into the deep pool of water, sitting silently on the edge of the pool of water. The thundering of the waterfall could be heard up stream. He put his head close to the water trying to catch a glimsp of a fish, suddenly he saw the red scales of a salmon. Suddenly he dived in. He had a weird way of catching fish but it generally worked, he sunk his teeth around the salmon's neck/head feeling it jerk his own head around in the water. Trying to ignore it he resurfaced, he crawled back onto the shore and dropped his fish. He began coughing up water and grinned sheepishly at Snowclaw. A few stray scales on his face. The fish was still flopping nearby, "Caught one," he said picking it up, the fish slapped him in the face again. "Ow..." He said after giving it the killing bite, "Never been too fond of fish." He said shaking he head.

She nodded, mostly to herself, as she walked by Snowclaw's side. The roaring of the waterfall filled her ears as she tilted them forwards with curiosity. She sat by the water's edge with her mentor to gaze into the shimmering pool before them as she listened to his instructions. Catching a fish sounded difficult, but she wanted to impress her the tom. She watched as he extended his claws from their usual position so that they could clasp a fish and puncture its flesh beneath layers of skin and scales. Doing the same experimentally while searching the water as he instructed he inspected it's depth for the glimmering shadows. She narrowed her eyes and watched the water as one fish swam close to her hunched position along the shore. Her eyes glowed as the night came and her tail twitched with determination. As it lazily wiggled its way towards her she leaned farther out and threw her paw into the water only to make a big splash and enough to scare away her target. Water erupted from the impact and speckled her fur in small droplets and the apprentice glared as she had to find a purchase beneath her so she wouldn't fall into the pond. "Mouse dung"

Laying back his ears, the warrior clenched his jaws and turned slightly as Smokeheart surfaced from the water. Stepping back, the older cat narrowed his eyes at the warrior and shook his head "Smokeheart as I recall, the fish were never to fond of you either. And now that you've dove into the water they have scattered into the deep end." He meowed sternly and shook his head. Turning back he watched Emberpaw's attempt and nodded "Now now, don't be discouraged, your stance was right, but your paw placement was wrong." He meowed softly "Don't reach out, this makes your paw flat and causes it slap the water. Instead, go at an angle. You want your paw darting into the water, not hitting it. This makes your strike faster and increases your catch rate." He meowed and settled down at the waters edge, one paw was pulled close to his chest. Scanning the water silently, he waited until another fish swam near the shore and struck out with his paw. The andle causing it to slide into the water quietly. Claws hooked like he showed earlier, he sunk them into his prey and dragged it out of the water. It was a nice bass, not overly large or tiny. Just big enough to make a decent meal for a cat or two.

Her heart was beating fast, as her body moved slow through the leaves and moss. Gritting her teeth, keen ice blue eyes locked onto a single target. This is it. This was her chance to save them. She was going to smite the beast that threatened her family. The beast that threatened her clan.Taking in a low shaky breath the young apprentice narrowed her eyes. Her fur pressed against her thing frame with anticipation, because she knew that if she failed it would be the end. Bunching up her muscles, she slunk up behind her prey quietly, her nails digging into the soft earth as he gathered up the power. Releasing the earth, Snowpaw sprung! Pouncing across the clearing, she sheltered her claws and clasped Olivehearts tail between her soft paws. Biting down, she smiled through his fur, her teeth still to small to do any real damage.Latley, snowpaw had been very bored, with her mentor so concerned with the medicene cat she hadn't been able to start officaly training so instead she busied herself with playing with the other warriors and focusing on her pounces.

Silvershade pins her ears back sadly. she didn't mind as much now that the tom was hunting on their territory. she looks down and paws the dusty ground. "I would've given up if that happened to me." she mewed. when they first met Whisper, Silvershade had been quite hostile. she wanted him to know she was respectful now. "a she-cat from our clan? do you know her name?" she blinks a couple of times. who could it be?

Milkfeather narrows her eyes at the soft tom. ''Yes, which cat?'' She asks suspiciously.

Laying back his ears the Tom shook his head. "Pain and challenge is Temporary my dear. It may last a Minute, or an Hour, a Day, or a Year, but eventually life will get better. If You Quit, however, your essentially being defeated. I refuse to let myself be defeated." He murmured gently and dipped his head respectfully. Tilting his head he perked his ears in thought. "I believe she said her name was Ottercreek," he murmured softly. She didn't really tell me anything else though."he admitted sadly. Glancing at Milkfeathers suspishion he frowned. "I understand your reluctant to trust me, but I really do mean you no harm." He explained warmly

"yeah, but it still got away," she mumbled, flicking her ears.

"even a great hunter will miss. You can't be perfect, you can try your best." She smiled softly and nudged her softly.

silvershade twitches her whiskers, listening to his wise words. she nods, but her cyan eyes widen in a shocked way. "ottercreek?" she was surprised, but she probably would be hearing that any cat from mapleclan would be helping a kittypet. silvershade looks at whisker again. "have you even considered joining a clan?" she asks curiously.

[pezfever]

Even though it seems like I'm never here, I'm quitting mapleclan no one includes me and my cats STILL were not added. It is not very well put together. Bye.

She tried to pout, but couldn't and smiled. "Fine." she mewed.
