Among the shadows, beneath the trees

[Estelle]

Stealth

A lesson in walking the darkness. It wasn’t muin difficult, in her opinion, yet an essential part of ShadowClan’s culture. Something taught to her by her own mother, and now to be passed on to the younger of the clan, her apprentice included. Sleepysunrise had waited until sunset to call those who had shown interest, waited until sunset to gather the little group of three apprentices together before she would begin walking along territory as she eyed each of them, destination in mind (giving Nightpaw little choice in coming along, should he heed her initial call, or a proper unnerving stare was certain to be sent his way).

The sun had slowly dropped beneath the trees and touched the horizons. And the world became filled with a warm orange hue. He had been waiting for the lesson for a long time. All day! The little dilute calico had made his way towards Sleepysunrise, whom had been the one who picked up his lessons recently. Her name was sort of like the sun setting. If the sunrise were to go to sleep, that would be sunset, wouldn't it?

Yeah...Palepaw's imagination was beyond him. He scurried over to his group and gave the warrior a small greeting. With the small nod and sparkle in his eyes, he had spoke words of appreciation and admiration for the warrior, "Hiya there! Thank you so much for the lesson again!"

He was more than thankful for Sleepysunrise to have taken on his lessons. And even more so, that she'll be teaching stealth today. It was probably consider one of ShadowClan's specialties, so he heard (other than the more gruesome one).

Magpiepaw trailed forward, watching as the bright orange of the sky spilled into shades of blue and purple. A wonderful sight, one that made her smile. Surely once Magpiepaw made it to Starclan then she'd be the one to pick out the hues for a sunset. Palepaw was still here and as excited as ever. Magpiepaw was never the kind to undermine anycat.... Most times, but since Palepaw seemed genuine, she'd spare him from a few ugly stares. But perhaps she was just feeling nicer today with the thought of having most of her training wrapped up as soon as she hoped.

ShadowClan Apprentice

[16/100]

Nightpaw wasn’t looking forward to this at all. He didn’t want to disappoint his mentor, so he did turn up, however he was practically certain he was going to disappoint her anyway. But in front of other apprentices? That was even worse. Usually quite confident, right now Nightpaw was very much on edge. He'd be laughed at if his secret ever got out! And he couldn’t think of a way to avoid it getting out here, he really didn’t want to admit it, but it seemed now he had little choice. But it was really embarrassing! A ShadowClan cat scared of the dark? He'd never hear the end of it if that got out! Making his way over to Sleepysunrise, Palepaw and Magpiepaw, Nightpaw was unusually and noticeably nervous, even before it got dark because he really didn’t want this secret to be spilled. He stared off into space without saying anything, scrambling to find any way to avoid cats finding out about his fear of the dark.

She had taken the group out to Mourning Ruins, perhaps out of a fondness for the area. And impromptu choice, as her eyes focused on each apprentice in turn. One confident, the other a chipper and a third… A bit skittish. But acting confident. What she hadn’t expected was Palepaw thanking her, and Sleepysunrise found herself suddenly feeling awkward and unsure of what to do other than… Stare and blink at the apprentice. Give her a light nod. Then move on to the topic at hand.

Clearing her throat, she observed the three with momentary care.
“Sneak up on me.”
She instructed rather simply, taking a stance a bit away with closed eyes, blending into the shadows thanks to her dark fur. She wanted to see where all of them were at.
