Vinepaw nodded and started to dig again he slowly moved a stone and patted it into the wall he carefully scooped the dirt and made sure to not to spray his mentor by accident..if he did that he would never stop apologizing he looked back up at his mentor once he had finished “whatcha think? he asked quickly

The she-cat watched over Vinepaw's shoulder as he worked. He was following all her instructions and was a fast learner. Once he finished, Dustbunny stepped up to properly inspect his work. It wasn't as nice or neat as an experienced tunneler's work but great for a beginner. "Good work, remember you have to spread your dirt along the ground and walls otherwise you'll end up leaving clumps of dirt in the path that other tunnelers could trip over." She reminded him, but besides that, he had done great.

"You got the basics of tunneling down. What else..." She asked herself. "The dangers that accompany tunneling, you won't find them down here often, and you should scent them before you run into them. Foxes, badgers, weasels, and rarely coyotes, can be found down here, well coyotes don't normally go down this far they make deep dens, and don't tunnel, foxes are the same. They're not keen on fighting down here, so long as you don't look like easy prey they should avoid cats."

"Badgers, however, they're a problem. They are very aggressive, great tunnelers, and will pursue you if they believe you're trespassing in their territory. You shouldn't be down here alone, but if you ever come across a badger run and get above ground. Don't ever try to fight a badger." She told the apprentice sternly.

"Cave-in, the most straightforward way to tell when a cave-in is coming is the dirt. It'll fall from above you right before the tunnel collapses, dust you don't have to worry about, but if you notice dirt, you'll want to run as quickly as you can."

Vinepaw smiled at his mentors praise besides the fact he hadn’t smoothed over the dirt head done well at the mention of the dangers he may face he payed close attention noting every possible threat at the mention of badgers he shuddered as a kit elkgrowl had told him a story about a badger and a cat who died trying to kill it “Don’t worry I’ll be gone before it can catch meat the mention of cave ins he was familiar with them yet he had never knew how to spot one he nodded to what his mentor was saying “is there a good way of keeping track of where you are?..I know it’s mostly just by paying attention and experience but is there a good way too?he asked
