lostpaw took a deep breath. "okay..." she looked scared now. The last thing she tried to catch she bit her paw real bad. she then dropped into the crouch and started forward her body slightly shivering as she wiggled a bit. she then leaped her paws skidding across the forest floor and she missed. the mouse scurryed away and she gave chase. "I got it!" she sounded upset- she was messing up so bad! she then leaped again from her run and landed on the mouse. and just then she fell to her side and the mouse escaped. "Fox-dung!" she hissed.
Dovedance raced past Lostpaw and easily outran the mouse.
Pinpointing where she knew the mouse would try to escape, the dappled silver-and-white she-cat leaped over the mouse and cut off it's path.
The mouse skidded to a stop and let out a squeal. Before it could run off in another direction, Dovedance scooped it up by the neck in her jaws.
The mouse instantly went limp, and Dovedance padded back to Lostpaw and dropped it at the apprentice's paws, her amber eyes glowing with sympathy.
''That was an amazing try, Lostpaw,'' She meowed. ''Here. It was your mouse. You take the credit for it.''
Sitting beside Lostpaw's sad form, Dovedance wrapped her tail around her apprentice's shoulders and groomed her ears comfortingly.
''We can move onto combat training if you like,'' She mewed softly, voice compassionate. ''Unless you want to give hunting another shot.''
LostPaw
"starclan wanted me...yet you refused me!"
"i wanna give it another go." she then stood up and sighed. she then lifted her head and sniffed the air and caught the vole scent. "i got something" she stiffned "want me to go for it? i want to... ask..first."
"i wanna give it another go." she then stood up and sighed. she then lifted her head and sniffed the air and caught the vole scent. "i got something" she stiffned "want me to go for it? i want to... ask..first."
Dovedance opened her jaws slightly to taste the air.
''Squirrel,'' The warrior remarked. ''Amazing tracking skills. But yes, go for it. If it runs up the tree, don't worry. I'll get it.''
lostpaw gave a nod and went looking for the vole. she dropped into a crouch and started forward. she saw a squirrel. not a vole...oh that was off...nevermind that. she then stalked forward making silent steps. she stopped when it looked up and she wiggled just a little. she then leaped and bit its tail. the little animal screeched and then she bit its head and killed it messily. but she caught it. "i did it!" her eyes were wide with happiness as she looked at the kill. she sorta ripped its head off but it was dead at least. "thank you starclan...for letting me catch this" she mumbled to herself and up to the sky.

Dovedance
ShadowClan Warrior
''WindClan isn't worth our time.''
_________
Dovedance had watched her apprentice catch the squirrel, and she gave a purr of approval.
''That was amazing! Your technique was skillful, and skillful warriors are what ShadowClan needs,'' The warrior shook out her fluffy pelt, then ruffled the top of Lostpaw's head with a white forepaw.
''However, you will need to practice on how to keep your killing bites clean, alright? I'll help you with it.''
Dovedance gave a satisfied whisk of her tail, her whiskers twitching with happiness for Lostpaw.
''That will be later. For now, bury your squirrel to collect later and we'll practice your combat skills.''

lostpaw nodded, she had a happy purr going on. first time since she was a kit. she dug a small hole and put the kill there and buried it. she then padded to dovedace's side "how long will it take...for me to become a warrior?" she asked softly. she was almost 10 moons old and she was still a apprentice...but maybe that was her fault..?

''Well, you'll have to wait until I think you're ready,'' She meowed, her voice soft. She broke into a purr. ''But you're learning quickly. I'm sure you'll be ready in no time!''
Dovedance pressed her muzzle to Lostpaw's head.
''For now, let's focus on your training. Attack me, claws sheathed.''

LostPaw
"starclan wanted me...yet you refused me!"
lostpaw sighed before raising her tail. "alright then, i'll work hard then!" lostpawthen leaped at dovedance trying to pin the other down. she wasnt sure how to attack a cat...let alone a warrior.
((kk- lost got 40 post now so she has a long way to go-))

Dovedance grunted and stumbled backwards, taken off guard by how quick Lostpaw had responded to her instructions.
The dappled silver-and-white warrior regained her balance quickly.
She reared, aiming blows at Lostpaw's ears. They weren't hard enough to hurt the apprentice, but they were enough to send her stumbling backward. (with perms)
Dovedance dropped back down onto all fours and charged at Lostpaw, leaping onto her apprentice's back and pinning her down. (with perms)
One forepaw lay on Lostpaw's shoulder while the other was on the ground beyond her apprentice's neck. (with perms)

"starclan wanted me...yet you refused me!"
lostpaw was taken aback at how much quicker her mentor was but then again this was a warrior after all. the blows made her fall over but before her mentor could pin her she rolled. she'd learned this from spottedfur's wise words a few moons ago. roll and get to your paws thats what he said. she then stood up and whirled around to look at dovedance with her tail high and prepared to jump out the way if needed. "am i doing good?" she tilted her head.
