DarkstarPouncepaw bounced up and down, pestering Darkstar, "What are we going to do today, Darkstar?" He chirped. "Battle training? Hunting? Border patrol?" Darkstar stayed quiet, while Pouncepaw kept running forward and waiting for her. You are so slow! Pouncepaw thought, not daring to say the words out loud. He didn't want to insult Darkstar. Or did he? Pouncepaw was from another clan, that gave him reason to do it. But Darkstar was a leader and his mentor. Better not...

Darkstar stared at Pouncepaw, waiting for him to calm down. "Well, for one thing, we're not going to visit the other Clans if you don't calm down." |

"But I don't wanna visit other clans!" Pouncepaw wailed. "I just wanna train!" Not sure of this territory, Pouncepaw looked around and saw an empty spot, "Is that where we'll train?" He asked her excitedly.

"Well, if you don't calm down, we won't meet the Clans that you might one day battle. After we see the territory we'll try and get some battle training done." Sighing, she shook her head. "Just calm down, ok?" She said sharply. |

Shocked by Darkstar's sharp reply, Pouncepaw stopped and fell in behind her. Am I a good apprentice?

Darkstar shook out her fur briskly, trotting along. "We'll visit the StormClan border first. That way we can go past The Jade Tree, and you can take a peek at it." She said, flicking her tail to signal Pouncepaw to stop. "Here's a steep ledge; you can't cross it without leaping over this tiny gorge." Her description of a 'tiny gorge' wasn't very accurate. The jump was a few tail-lengths, and the drop was sheer with a river tumbling by at the bottom. "Just make sure you don't fall in. If you trip, I'll catch you." Darkstar moved back, then took a running leap and landed on all fours, tail poised, on the other side. "Come on, Pouncepaw." She said, encouraging the little cream apprentice. "I know you can do it." |

Pouncepaw crouched and lighted his haunches in the air. Leaping, he felt jagged stone beneath his paws, looking down, he saw the rough river Darkstar described. Pouncepaw tried to get a grip on the cliff, but couldn't get the right one. "Help!" he wailed.

Darkstar grabbed Pouncepaw's scruff, pulling him back up. She carried him a little farther away from the gorge, then carefully placed him on the ready-made moss bed that was created for apprentices before him. "Are you ok?" She asked, sitting down and grooming his ruffled fur. "Wait here." She bounded away, and managed to catch a slow, fat, old mouse. Bringing the piece of prey back, she lay it at the cream tom's feet. "You weren't the only one who's done that." |

Pouncepaw mewed his thanks and looked at the mouse. "I shouldn't eat this, Creamfoot, Fallenpaw or Pineleaf could, but as the code says; The word of the leader is the code," So Pouncepaw ate half of the mouse and offered the rest to Darkstar.

Darkstar nodded, but shook her head and buried the remainder of the mouse. She cracked a smile and turned to Pouncepaw. "A leader never disobeys the warrior code, but she or he may tell others to." She stood up, and pointed with her tail to a tree that had fallen down on the path. "Behind this is the Jade Tree. We gather here every full moon, as you know. Behind them, there is the Silver River. It got its name when before the great disease, a cat named Silversong saved a litter of kits. The Silver River is StormClan's border." She showed Pouncepaw how to put all your weight into your haunches, then release and jump high. She landed on the other side of the fallen tree, then peeked over the edge and encouraged the apprentice. |

Pouncepaw forgot something important when he was jumping the cliff. His name was pounce paw. He can do this. Pouncepaw lifted his haunches just as his mentor had and jumped, leaping over and landing a whisker length away from his mentor. Lifting his head high, he followed Darkstar through the territory. Is this wrong? He thought, I'm not Nightclan. Should I know their territory this well?
