Lightningpaw: Assessment

[Moonraven]

She's been so busy, lost her head, and stressed that she had utterly forgotten about her apprentice's assessment she had promised to do. She and her roleplay felt quite guilty and have prioritized getting started since. So she spent quite a bit of time wandering and securing a proper hunting and sparring location. The twolegs traps had been placed all over the place, so finding a safe spot to carry out an assessment was a task in itself.

She waved her tail in thanks to the massive brown and white tom as he lumbered ahead of her towards the warriors' den. Batglare was often the easiest cat to rely on when she needed someone's aid on short notice. The extra pair of eyes had been a great help with securing a location.

"Lightningpaw," she called, fighting off a yawn as she wandered over to the apprentice's den. "Come here, we're doing your assessment today."

Lightningpaw would come running when he heard Twilightstar call him. "Assessment! Really!" Lightningpaw would meow absolutely trembling with excitement at the thought of finally being able to get his assessment done. Lightningpaw was so ready to finally become a Warrior after all the Apprentice had been training for this since he was 6 moons old. Now being 18 moons old he had matured both in mind and body. @Moonraven (I apologize for the delay things have been crazy.)

Twilightstar smiles as the tom joins her. "Yes." She chuckles and beckons him to follow her as she leads them outside of camp. "We're not going to be able to go too far from camp because of the twolegs and traps. But I had Batglare help me clear a small area you can do some hunting in." The scarred feline padded about half a tree length from camp.

"We'll start with hunting first. Do not go beyond my sight, nor into any of the other landmarks. I know prey is a bit harder to find out here with the twolegs, so you're going to be at a bit of a disadvantage compared to some apprentices, but I trust you'll do well. Hunt whatever you can, I'll be keeping an eye on you to see how you do. Unless you have any questions, you can go ahead."

Lightningpaw would nod. "I am confident I will do fine I have always done well with hunting and I've had some of the best training I could ask for." Lightningpaw would meow his confidence. While some might consider him arrogant Lightningpaw has always shown that he doesn't make the same mistakes twice. Not just that he was fast and small allowing him to easily hide and creep up on prey. Lightningpaw would lift his nose and open his mouth allowing the air to reveal it's secrets to him hoping to pick up prey. @Moonraven (Gonna leave the scents up to you to decide if that's okay.)

Twilightstar smiled at the tom's confidence. She hasn't seen him hunt before, so this would be new. As he padded off, she followed some fox lengths behind him, close enough she could move quickly if danger showed itself, but far and downwind enough that her scent wouldn't be picked up by him or interfere with what he was hunting. Twilightstar parted her mouth and scented the air. She found rabbit, a common prey in WindClan, priaredog, which were popping up like rabbits with the warmer weather, and some mice somewhere beyond her vision. The leader turned her green eye back to Lightningpaw, interested in seeing what he'd be going for.

Lightningpaw would smell the air catching wind of the closest prey item that being a Prairie dog. He would get low to the ground not that he needed to be all that low Lightningpaw was a small cat seeming more like a 10 moon old apprentice then a cat that is 18 moons old. But he assumed the hunters crouch none the less. Finding nearby tall grass to hide in. Lightningpaw would attempt to creep close enough to see the Prairie dog. It was currently searching for food. The safety of it's burrow seemed no where in sight. A fatal mistake! Lightningpaw would creep closer getting into position to pounce. Once close enough he would prepare to attack before aiming to land right on top of it if he managed to he would aim to kill it with a swift bite to the neck not wanting to make it suffer. @Moonraven

Twilightstar trails further behind the apprentice as he hunts down the prairie dog. She sits in tall grass and watches as he drops into a hunting crouch to stalk the nearby prey. He stays hidden out of sight, good, and stalks closer while the prey's attention is elsewhere. She mentally checks hunting off the list as he catches it without much trouble. Twilightstar flickers her tail in satisfaction and waits to see if he'll continue hunting or bring back the prey.
@Lightningpaw666 [Sorry, I don't know how I keep missing the mentions for this. I want to try and get this done before the next meeting, so if you're waiting on a reply, feel free to bump me sooner.]

Lightningpaw would quickly dig a place to cover the Prarie Dog so that he could hide it from predators not quite ready to stop. He would lift his nose to the wind and smell. Opening his mouth to let the smells waft through his scent glands. He would smell Rabbit which he knew he needed to hunt. All of Windclan was known for their ability to hunt Rabbit. And Lightningpaw was no exception. He would follow the scent making sure that before he got too close the wind was blowing towards him to keep his scent away from the rabbit. He would move into some tall grass practically disappearing. [Kitty Softpaws Tier 2 Activated] @Moonraven

Twilightstar was delighted to see that he was willing to continue hunting. Not that his first catch hadn't been good enough, but it was always better to catch more when it came to hunting assessments. He turned his attention to a rabbit, great. Rabbit hunting wasn't required to complete the hunting assessment, but most apprentices made sure to catch a rabbit to show off that skill.

He stayed downwind while tracking the rabbit, and Twilightstar followed him at a distance, staying downwind of him. As soon as she caught sight of the rabbit he was hunting, she'd stop following him and sit down to observe.
