Oh, STARCLAN she was so EXCITED!!!!! Muddy was finally an apprentice, and she was ecstatic. She was gonna listen to her mentor and the warriors and all the cats teaching her so she could be the BEST warrior ever.
These were the thoughts that ran like a rapid through Muddypaw's head as she paced around camp, attempting to contain her excitement. Her mentor was doing... whatever warriors have to do, so she was stuck here until a warrior brought her out into the territory... Oh boy, she got to be outside of camp!
She could imagine it now, the leaflitter crunching below her paws and the rush of wind and the smell of prey. She could practically feel it all already! But sadly she had to wait for a warrior before she could do anything. She didn't want to bother the warriors in camp to actually train and do stuff, but her pacing and energy was incredibly noticeable.
With how much she was pacing, she might as well have carved a pit with her paws alone!

Owlthroat found himself rather busy as of late. His tail flickered as he exited the warrior’s den finding himself confronted by a bubbling apprentice. Pacing this way and that.

Since becoming a father, Owlthroat had softened around the edges. He found less time to make cutting remarks, but he still held a somewhat spiteful energy for any cat that wasn’t his immediate family. His maw furrowed, Muddypaw a rather new apprentice.

”What are you doing pacing like that?” He hissed through gritted teeth. ”Where’s your mentor?” Mentor’s needed to take much better care of their idle apprentices. But of course that was slightly hypocritical for him to think, he’d frankly abandoned Willowpaw’s training after getting fed up with her. Owlthroat’s ears twitched with annoyance.

Muddypaw skidded to a stop in her pacing, dirt piling up at her paws. She stood and looked at the warrior. She remembered him once from her kithood, playing and attempting to knock him over. Hm, I guess she was gonna be treated a lot differently now...
"I- I'm just so excited, Owlthroat! I'm an apprentice now!" She mewed, remembering the memorable warrior's name. She seemed to see him everywhere! Maybe he was also important? Yea, he seems important.
"I actually, uhm, dunno where my mentor is... I guess he had to do something? So I'm just waitin!" She responded, tail flicking and kicking up the loose dust she had created with her quick stop.

Owlthroat’s yellow eyes narrowed into slits, Muddypaw was making herself a nuisance. He had a free morning, time to put it into use.

”How’s some battle training sound instead?” Owlthroat’s head tipped to one side quizzically. If he could give her a bit of focus perhaps she’d start showing some less frustrating tendencies.

His tail swished back and forth as he awaited a response.
