The art of hunting, one Sleepysunrise had begun with pinecones and tail-losing lizards. Today she had the privilege of taking out another small group of apprentices for training, her own returned brother included, whom she had spared an extra long glance to ensure his well-being, a silent question on whether he was alright. Her younger siblings were aging, and soon they would join her rank of warrior… It was difficult to believe, when their ceremonies had been held together, courtesy of her date of birth and meeting dates. She blinked slowly, having roused the three apprentices and now leading them into the territory, not too far from camp to begin with. She was trying Mistlewhisker’s technique, of beginning with mere props for their first lesson. If all went well, they may be able to catch something by the end of this.

Firepaw followed behind the warrior, close to the other two apprentices. They werent familiar to her, so hopefully, aside from learning to hunt, she could also make some more apprentice friends! Tecnically Firepaw already knew how to hunt from her days as an outsider, but most of that was just self-taught nonsense that just so happened to work most of the time, so this would be a good oportunity to learn how to catch prey like a propper clan cat!
Rise and shine, it was time to get started for the day. Palepaw scrambled up to his paws, still a little drowsy from just waking up. His eyes felt a little half opened as he stumbled his way out from the apprentice den. It hasn't been long since he'd became an apprentice, but he thinks he'd settled into the his new nest relatively quickly. Though he would've liked to decorate a little more. But that will come with time.
'Off track again. Where was I going?' Palepaw gave way for a little stretch before spotting a warrior in the distance. She seemed to be calling for him...'oh! OH! It was Sleepysunrise!' Today was going to be his first hunting lesson. He leapt out of the cozy den into a burst of fresh cool air. He shivered slightly as he ran his way up to the group. It was getting cold and soon he'd get to see the rumored Leaf-bare, with all the snow, ice and cold. Of which, he is oddly excitedly for.
"Helloo!" He had given the warrior a small nod in greeting before turning around to see the other apprentices. There were two apprentices, both he'd never met before. But being late is better than never, so he'd introduced himself to Firepaw, who was walking closest to him. "Hiya, I'm Palepaw!"
