(She/her)
Firepaw trotted along the clearing, a cheerfull energy to her steps, her amber eyes flying over every single cat that came into view, looking for a specific tom. It turns out that, at least judjing by what she had found out a few hours ago, you dont actually need to wait around to be asigned a mentor to start training! Apparently Dawnstar encouraged the apprentices to take inniciative over their own training and look for cats to teach them, and she planned to do just that while the mentor spot was empty for her. After all, Dawnstar herself was very clear when she had allowed her into the clan, if she doesnt pull her weight, she would be kicked out, and Firepaw wasnt willing to wait until the next clan meeting happened to start making herself usefull to the clan, so she asked around camp for any cats that could be up for giving her a class, and a certain "Rookfire" popped up a lot in the lists of posible teachers cats gave her.
By what she had heard, he was a Shadowclan enforcer, a rank above warrior that Dawnstar asigned to certain cats, a warrior had explained to her, and he also seemed like an experienced mentor, which basically made him the perfect fit for what Firepaw was looking for! And looking for him Firepaw was, searching through the camp looking for a tom that matched the description cats gave her (black cat with some white stripes on his tail), trying to keep the excitement in her face from being
too obvious. She was about to meet one of Shadowclan's elites! One chosen by Dawnstar no less! And she was about to recieve training from him! ...Hopefully, anyway. She already had in mind
exactlywhat she wanted to learn: battle training! She had thought that, considering what her skills were right now, battle training would be more usefull to her. She already knew how to hunt by way of teaching herself while she made the trip to Shadowclan, but she didnt have much to show in terms of battle prowess. Before she came to Shadowclan she mostly avoided predators instead of facing them off, and she hadnt had any hostile loner encounters, mostly becouse she always was very carefull to not get on their territory to begin with. So some fighting lessons would be ideal to round up her skills. And which you look at that, fighting was one of Rookfire's specialities!
After a little while, Firepaw finally spotted the cat she was looking for from across the clearing. The older apprentice let out a little mew of excitement and bounded towards the enforcer. As soon as she came into his view though, she made sure to calm herself down and seem a bit more profesional, sitting down in front of him with her tail neatly tucked in front of her paws before speaking, though a gleam of enthusiasm still could be seen from her eyes.
"Hi! Im Firepaw, a pleasure to meet you! You are Rookfire, right?"
