[ if you are getting mentioned, it means cowpaw has chosen your character for an herb patrol! now on the occasion your character cannot participate - please allow me to know along with a reason so they can be exempted. failure to complete a patrol will be dealt with a punishment given by cowpaw. ]
[ these patrols are due on november 30th by 11:59 PM EST !! if an extension is needed, please let me know a day before the deadline. if a patrol is going slow, you have full permission to take it over and/or finish it yourself. only five herbs should be collected a minimum, may vary with cobwebs and similar things. your character should report to cowpaw in this thread ! i likely won't reply to the reports unless needed or requested he notices 'em though! any dialogue in italtics is in sign / non-verbal, any dialogue in bold is verbal speech. ]
Cowpaw gazed at the darkening sky. Leaf-fall was upon them and soon would leaf-bare. He still couldn't find any marigold and his worries grew. It was in the middle of the moon cycle which meant it was time for him to send out patrols. Hopefully, these would be more successful. With a quiet yawn, Cowpaw rose to his paws. His long and feathery tail swished behind him, looking for his clanmates, he set off to gather them together and put them into patrols. Huh. Little him would be proud of him. He was all strong now, mhm!

The tall lean muscled warrior snapped back into a state of focus as Cloverpaw took off in a sprint emptying it until only instinct and training remained. The dust leapt away from his hindpaws as the apprentice exploded towards the pair of warriors. As he burst towards them Beetleblaze watched his opponent carefully. Cloverpaw was controlling his small body, maintaining a straight line so that he did not give away his target. His head remained low, and unflinching in its direction. The warrior tensed his muscles, ready to jump back at a moments notice. With perfect timing Cloverpaw dove at him when he was just within range taking a swipe.
Beetleblaze pressed his coiled paws into the earth leaping backwards, keeping his front legs high to avoid a low blow. To his surprise however Cloverpaw leapt high and hard swiping at his face which was leaning down in order to keep his eyes on his attacker. He flinched as the white paw glanced along his nose. The warrior remained composed however feeling his feet reach the ground again. He tried to create some distance shuffling back a bit while he waited for Floatingleaf to attack and take advantage of the opening.
(For posting order we can organize it this way. Prancer, Quietheart, Silvershadow13, and Caspain. I haven't really been adhering to it, but it would help with the flow of things a bit,)
Floatingleaf
She was crouched near Beetleblaze’s left side waiting for a moment to strike, he stepped back a little after Cloverpaw performed an amazing jump. Darting in front of him she spun to face Cloverpaw using her left front paw she quickly swiped a fast but harmless blow at Cloverpaw’s shoulder. Hoping to make him stumble a bit.

@Caspian
@prancer
(When do we end the demonstration, because Flickerpaw @Caspian needs to try too)

This is clovers first battle training aswell-
Clover'Paw
He let out a startled mew as the blow landed roughly on
his shoulder making him fall backwards. Then he stumbled
getting up, giving his snow white fur and quick shake.
Gritting his teeth, he lounged forward aiming a sheathed
blow at her chest.

Leaping back as Cloverpaw lunged forward she made a mental note in her head to compliment him later on his speed but she quickly made up her mind on what to do next, she darted to his side and as quick as possible she jumped over Cloverpaw and sweeped his paws out from under him. Walking over to Cloverpaw she leaned down to help him get up.
“You did good” she told him “sorry about that last move that was a bit advanced on my part.”

The tom crashed to the ground with a 'Uuff!'. Once the
she cat came over to apologise he squinted at her and didn't
use her offer. "This is training on something totally different!
This is my first battle training, are you trying to show off?"
He grunted, his side ached and he was already aching from
yesterdays asighnment. He took a few steps away and sat
down.

Floatingleaf
Floatingleaf winced at his harshness, he was just an apprentice and she had went too hard on him, scolding herself she turned to Flickerpaw.
“You ready?” She asked

A swarm of nerves itched at her paws, “Okay” she said
Crowfoot hummed lightly when Cowpaw asked them to go and find some poppy with an apprentice, Firepaw, they nodded and stood up stretching and shaking out their fur as they looked around for the apprentice, "Firepaw come on lets get the herbs Cowpaw needs."
