Jadepaw felt relief when she didn’t hear criticism for being away from the nursery, her gaze rising up from her paws. She still didn’t make any direct eye contact, that sort of thing just made her feel awkward so she opted to looking at her mentor's mouth. Peachfuzz’s words made her ears perk up a bit in some shock, but she immediately followed as told. Hunting sounded exciting, if not scary. When she was younger she had often pretended to catch whatever she had been eating that day, or pounced on her friends’ tails, but she had yet to actually catch anything of her own.
She moved quickly to keep pace with her mentor, absentmindedly glancing around at what they passed. Everything seemed somewhat more cramped then it had a few moons before, but she tried not to focus on that, instead focusing on what she was being told. “If we see something big like a, um, a fox, should I run? And what if I do get injured?” She didn’t want to do anything wrong, she wanted to be absolutely sure she knew what to do in any circumstance, though she hoped none of any of that actually happened.
