Auburnaurora sat in the Ancient Oak. She was waiting for her apprentice and son Nightpaw. "Where is Nightpaw, no apprentice should be late on the first day of training." Out of the corner of her eye, a wood pidgon fluttered onto the branch in front of her. Slowly and silently, she crept along the branch. When she was in close enough range, she struck with lightning speed, killing the bird immediately. "Well that wasn't hard at all!" Looking down from her breakfast, Nightpaw was staring up into the tree, his eyes wide in awe.

The young tom was late, and he had to hurry. He was running as fast as he could, his white paws were getting dirty from the slightly muddy floor.
Sighting his mother he started slowing down. His blue opticals widened as he watched her hunt a wood pigeon. It was the most brillant thing he had ever seen. Closing his maw he gulped and lowered his head. "Sorre' I'm late," he meowed hoping for an apology. He ran his tongue over his paws to get them clean.
"Wha' are we gonna do todah ma'?" his accented tongue was quite understandable, though some words were broken or mingled together. Nightpaw came closer to the Ancient Oak, he had to bend his neck back to see his mother. "I wanna 'un't lik' you! That was'h aweshome!" he exclaimed his long black tail wagging somewhat like a dog's tail, a grin was plastered on his face. |

Auburnaurora's soft gray eyes gazed at her apprentice. "Well, I am going to teach you how to hunt in trees." Signaling with her tail for Nightpaw to follow, she told him to drop to a hunter's crouch.

"Well, I am going to teach you how to hunt in trees."
To hunt in the trees?! That sounded awesome to Nightpaw. Seeing his mother signal him he started up the tree, his claws digging into the hard old bark. As he moved up the trunk pieces of bark fell away into the grass below. He wasn't going to be like the bark, not at all. Nightpaw almost lost his grip but regained it as he brought back his paw and latched on to a higher piece of the trunk. Scuttling up he was finally by his mother.
A hunter's crouch? Gulping he lowered himself, his black belly fur nearly touching the branch. His claws dug into the softer bark as he carefully, with one paw in front of the other, made his way from that end of the branch to the other. Swiftly moving his paws he stalked back over to this mother. "How was'h tha'?" he asked, knowing he must've made a few mistakes. |

Auburnaurora watched Nightpaw as he stalked over the branch. "You did great, on the first try too." She told him, glowing with pride at her son. A voice in her head told her "Training will go smoothly and quickly, he may even become a warrior early."

He looked at his mother, still hoping that her reply would be a good one. His ears flickered forward seeing her muzzle open.
"You did great, on the first try too."
A smile crossed his white splotched muzzle. Pride was smelling up in his chest. Would he try hunting this time? He could see a bird up ahead. Grinning he climbed carefully across the trunk to the other branch. It was thicker and easier to manuever on. Nightpaw stalked silently across the branch. Lowering himself he did a half dash half pounce. His claws barely grazed the bird's wings as it flew off. He swore silently in his mind and went back to his mother. "I tried!" he meowed, he really wanted to impress his mother. |
