Darkleaf awoke, and headed to the Apprentice's Den. It wasn't too early, the sun was gradually beginning to come out. They entered the den, quietly attempting to wake Lightningpaw "pssst ! Morning ! Training time!" It'd been a looooong time since they'd seen the apprentice den, it was weird seeing inside. Patiently, she waited outside the den, watching the sky above.

The tom took a moment but after the word 'morning'. he yawned and shook his head, trying to shake the sleep off his eyes. stretching his limbs he gets up taking a moment to wake up a bit before looking up at his mentor. he pads outside the den and nods "Morning, What are we doing today?" he smiles. He can't wait to learn more.

"I figured we'd try some hunting today! Let's head to The Dawning woods." They led him out the territory, padding along till the reached the woods. It seemed that the weather was becoming colder lately. The leaffall weather was pretty, but they couldn't help but worry about leafbare. Pulled from her thoughts, they arrived at their destination. "Here we are! You smell anything?"

the tom sniffed the air attempting to smell the slight scent of absolutely anything. trying to make out the smells " I smell two different things, I don't know what they are though." he mews having no idea which scent to follow. So he turns to his mentor as he waits for her to answer him " How can I tell which prey scent is which?" he mews.

"Well it really depends," she smiled, sniffing the air a little. "Mice are often a little nutty smelling - or maybe even berry-ish. They smell like what they eat. The same goes for squirrels, thought the two are a little different, you'll start to notice that when you find them. Rats are similar, but they sometimes carry a nasty smell - I think it comes from the twoleg place. Frogs, on the other paw, have this sort of damp wet smell that other animals don't." They crouched down, demonstrating a hunting crouch, "How about we try crouching and creeping?" They asked, quietly. "Keep close to the ground, and make sure to keep your tail out of the way. Then, you can slowly begin to creep. Placing your paws as softly as possible."

The tom nodded as he tried to remember all the prey scents, so they smell like what they ate sometimes. So a squirrel would smell like acorns? Or whatever squirrels eat? ok. He nodded as he is instructed by his mentor. Attempting to keep his tail out of the way. he goes to start his creep but accidentally steps on his own tail. he winced and fell onto the ground he growled in frustration at himself. he proceeds to keep attempting this until he's able to move without his tail in the way. but then he hates how loud his paws are. so he tries to perfect this too.
By the time he sees he made the perfect crouch and creep in his eyes he smiles looking over at his mentor, his tail is sore from the fact he stepped on it "I did it!" he purrs
