Cherrywood • She / Her • Shadowclan warrior • 20+ moons

Cherrywood sighed as she exited the warriors' den. Another day she wasn't chosen for a patrol, and thus was trapped in camp. She let out a frustrated sigh, she felt trapped and useless in camp. In here she was stuck just training apprentices to be of any use.

The large dark red calico she-cat stretched, her narrowed blue gaze scanning camp for any apprentices in the area. She straightened up before clearing her throat "Any apprentices who wish to do stealth training, please meet me in the elders' den!" she called out, her voice ringing across the clearing.

She then made her way to the elders' den, sitting down before neatly wrapping her tail around her large paws. Her eyes locked onto the den's entrance as she waited for whatever apprentices wanted to join.

Coyotepaw • He / They • Shadowclan apprentice • 11+ Moons

Coyotepaw heard Cherrywood's call, quirking a brow he rose to his paw, making his way over to the Elders' den. He didn't mind getting an extra stealth lesson, it was an important skill to know anyway, especially being a Shadowclan cat.

Upon entering the den he felt her gaze burning into his pelt. He could tell she was surprised he showed up for the lesson again. He remained calm as she gave him a small nod in greeting, then looked past him to the den entrance.

Coyotepaw began to groom his pelt as they waited for anyone else to show up.

Ibispaw | Shadowclan Apprentice | she/her | 47/100

The morning had been going bland so far. Ibispaw didn’t dare break these new rules by slipping out. So here she was, feeling stuck with nothing to do. Maybe she should seek someone out. Maybe—

That call seemed to be her saving grace. Her ears pricked, her body cracking as she rose to her paws. Good, some training; it wouldn’t hurt to try and get something new learned or even to sharpen old claws. Either way, it was a distraction and something she could do.

Slipping out, Ibispaw noticed another apprentice who had come to join. Coyotepaw, she thinks. Offering him a nod, the older apprentice decided to sit by the den, her eyes scanning around.

Was it just the three of them?
