Training A Wolf

[Dawnlight]

Dawnlight's copper eyes blinked open as the sun's light radiated into the warrior's den.  A small yawn escaped the she-cat's mouth.  She got up and ran her tongue over her orange pelt.  She padded outside of the den and approached the fresh-kill pile.  The deputy grabbed an average sized squirrel out of the pile and ate it quickly.  Prey was running well in Flashclan which is good.

Dawnlight padded towards the camp entrance.  Her tail swayed from side to side.  Today she will be training her apprentice, Wolfpaw.  She was glad she could train Wolfpaw.  She sat down waiting for her apprentice to arrive.

[Wolfpaw]

Wolfpaw yawned and padded drowsily out of the Apprentice's Den. She dragged herself to the Fresh-kill pile, only then noticing Dawnlight's scent and pelt. Grabbing a vole, she gulped. Oops, better eat this quickly. She thought, quickly gulping down the vole. Approaching her mentor carefully, she dipped her head. "Hi, Dawnlight. What are we doing today?" She chirped, sitting down.

{blargh. i just saw a mutant strawberry - it had, like, eight strawberries attached together. blarrrrhhggg}

[Dawnlight]

( oh gawsh XD )

A white toothed smile slowly made it's way on Dawnlight's muzzle as her copper eyes met her apprentice. She gapped open her mouth as she replied, "First I will introduce you to the clan's borders, and maybe if we have time I'll squeeze in some hunting."

"Now let's go!" She said enthusiastically. Her eyes were bright with excitement. She loved training and helping her apprentice. She trotted out of the Flashclan camp and headed towards the Stormclan border. On their way towards the Stormclan border she asked, "So do you know anything about Stormclan?"

[Wolfpaw]

"Hooray!" Wolfpaw chirped, bouncing up in excitement. She followed her mentor - the deputy - out of the camp, and she stared around with eyes wide. "Whoa..." She breathed, gulping and bounding forward to be by Dawnlight's side. "StormClan. Hm... I know that they eat disgusting, stinky fish. And that they like to swim, and they stink." She wrinkled her nose.

[Dawnlight]

( Sorry if it's short. I'm on my phone )

Dawnlight chuckled as she noticed her apprentice's amazement. Wolfpaw was exactly like herself when she first stepped into the Flashclan territory. To her it was more greener than the other clans, since it was filled with trees and other nature.

"Correct. You get used to the stench after awhile," The orange tabby said with a bright smile. She got to taste a slimy fish once. It was very strange. As they approached the border she marked their territory. She then looked back at her apprentice, "This is Stormclan. They have rivers running through their territory. They eat fish, water voles, mice, and other stuff that live near rivers."

[Wolfpaw]

Wolfpaw followed her mentor obediently, trying hard not to wrinkle her nose at the stench. "Get used to the stench? I don't think I'll ever get this stink off my pelt." Nodding, the husky-patterened apprentice took in everything Dawnlight said. It could help her in battle one day. "Ok. Is that good? Like, having rivers through the territory? Because then you wouldn't have to escort the elders."

[Dawnlight]

Dawnlight almost forgot about the mountain. From this angle you couldn't really see it, since there was a tree in their way. "I forgot there's a mountain right behind that tree," she said flicking her tail towards the tree, "That's where most of them live. Answering your question, the rivers can affect them. For example, if their rivers get flooded or poisoned they would have less fresh-kill. That is why they have that mountain, to get more resources."

She didn't really understand Stormclan, but at the same time it would be harder for another clan to attack their camp. She added, "They also ride down the mountain on railroad carts which seems really crazy to me."

[Wolfpaw]

"What in SolarClan? Why do they do that?" Wolfpaw asked, blinking. "They're more crazier than I thought!" She then stopped, balanced on her hind legs and peeked at the mountain. The tall apprentice could now easily see it. "Whoa. It's huge." She murmured, coming back down to normal hight.

[Dawnlight]

Dawnlight nodded her head in agreement. The mountain was very big. She never went into the Stormclan territory, and she'd never would like to anyway.

"Now onto the next place," She mewed. She turned to the direction of The Jade Tree and began to pad towards the gathering area. She asked, "So do you know anything about The Jade Tree?"

[Wolfpaw]

"The Jade Tree... isn't that the place where were gather at the full moon?" Wolfpaw asked, dust flying up in her wake as they walked along a tree-less plain.

[Dawnlight]

"Correct," Dawnlight nodded her head. She began to speed up her pace knowing that they were very close to The Jade Tree. Her walk turning into a sprint. The cold breeze brushed through her fur. She felt alive for once. It felt like she was free. She enjoyed running through the territory, but she remembered she was training Wolfpaw. She looked over her shoulder, wondering if her apprentice was following close behind her. A light laugh escaped her mouth. She teased, "Hurry up slow poke."

The orange tabby stopped suddenly. Her eyes looked up at The Jade Tree in awe. It was truly an amazing monument. She always thought The Jade Tree was truly stunning, even though she saw it many times. The mount of rocks with the speckles of green emeralds is just a beautiful scenery. She mewed, "This is The Jade Tree, and just behind this is the Airclan territory. Do you know anything about Airclan?"

[Wolfpaw]

Wolfpaw trotted behind, waiting for Dawnlight to call her. When she did, she suddenly, leaped forward, grinning. "Who's the slowpoke now?" She asked, turning her head around and laughing playfully at her mentor. When Dawnlight started to slow down, Wolfpaw turned her head back to the front and gasped. "Whoa! The Jade Tree's beautiful!" She turned around slowly on the spot, admiring the scenery. "Hmm... AirClan. No, I don't really know anything about them."

[Dawnlight]

"Airclan has many grassy hills. Also most of their territory is filled with wheat. They feed off of rabbits, mice, voles, and many more prey that lurk in the moors. I guess you can say, they're clan consists of many fast cats," Dawnlight continuously babbled facts about Airclan. She took a couple more glances at The Jade Tree and then continued onwards. She rushed off towards the last clan, Nightclan. The deputy hoped to get this done soon, so she'll be able to teach Wolfpaw how to hunt. The wind brushed against her pelt, as she ran to the last boundary.

[Wolfpaw]

Wolfpaw took all of this in quickly, blinking. "Ok. Now I get why they're called AirClan." She half-joked, smiling. When Dawnlight finished, the she-cat jumped up and sped alongside next to her mentor. "So, where are we going now?" She managed to mew loudly over the beating of their paws.

[Dawnlight]

"Nightclan," Dawnlight said in a straight forward attitude. She wasn't very fond of Nightclan. She wasn't very sure why. Their leader? No. Darkstar seemed okay. Well, she never really got to talk to her. Only a greeting and that's all. The clan itself? Maybe. The she-cat shrugged to herself. She raced to the last clan border, every step she took made a soft thump.

The orange tabby slowed her pace as they reached the border. Her eyes scanned around the marshy area, checking if there was anything suspicious. She mewed, "This is Nightclan. Their territory is located in the marshland, as you can see. I think they have a greater stockpile of prey than all the other three clans. They mostly survive off of marsh rats and frogs, which I think is kind of strange."
