Flamingpaw raised her eyebrow behind his back at his speech and followed, ticking off the list in her head as she walked. Couldn't hurt to try, right..? It would at least get her a little farther ahead, even if she didn't want to.

Lynx'Call stopped at the middle of the forest. "Today were gonna go hunting. I'll train you the basics. Remember mistakes are OK. I'll try mine best to not fail making you a warrior. Just copy mine moves." She stared into the forest clearing. She spotted a rabbit.

Lynx'Call went into a hunting crouch. Spying on the rabbit carefully, She unleashed her claws and pounced. In one slash she killed the rabbit. Carrying the rabbit in her mouth she padded to thorn'Paw. "Now try copying me." She mewed nervously.

Shade’Feather stopped abruptly, having found the place he was looking for. He let out a quiet breath as he re-examined the place. It was a wide clearing circled with bushes and the trees cast dappled shadows across the grass. It would be the perfect place to practice, not on live prey, since they probably wouldn’t come out in the open, but just as a place to demonstrate, and he knew plenty of hunting places not far from here either. He turned around to face Flaming’Paw.
“Are you ready? Why don’t we start with the hunting crouch. Show me what you know.” He told her, his bright green eyes locked on her.

Flamingpaw looked around, blinking at the dancing shadows. She stepped into the grass, pressing upon it in different spots. She looked up at Shadefeather and crouched down, like she'd seen some of the queens and warriors do when she was a kit.

"I will try mine best I promise." Thorn'Paw scanned the clearing. Spotting a vole a few tail lengths ahead of him. He tried to copy the hunting crouch. He did it successfully but something else caught his sight. Making him fall into the smooth grass. The vole ran off. "Mouse-Dang!" He mumbled to himself.

Lynx'Call walked towards him. " Try focusing on the prey a little bit more." She gived him a lick on his ear. "Come on lets get back to the camp, ill carry this rabbit to the camp." She ran off.

Shade’Feather circled around her with his eyes narrowed slightly.
“Decent, but make sure you tuck your paws in close so you can get the most strength from your pounce. Keep your tail still, some tuck their tails near their back paws, but you must ensure it does not drag or touch any of the foliage around you. Always keep your eyes up to your surroundings. Be aware of the direction of the wind.” He rattled off, then worried that was too much information he paused and went into his own hunting crouch to show her.
“Paws in close, keep them light and stretch your paws out in front of you. Tail still,” He added again. At this point he was just talking mostly in circles, so he gave up on that and demonstrated, he took a few steps forward, moving quickly, but he made almost no sound except for the swish of grass that replicated the breeze that blew through briefly. He stayed low, keeping his paws close and tail almost entirely still. He then stood up and turned to watch Flaming’Paw.

Flamingpaw glanced at his posture and corrected herself, grumbling to herself in her head. She held her tail slightly over the grass, still but not touching. She glanced around the clearing and felt the breeze briefly touch her fur. After a moment, she snuck forward, careful not to make noise or let her tail brush on the grass. She stood and turned to look at Shadefeather, eyelids lowered slightly as she waited for his comments. Her tail twitched slightly, sending ripples in the grass around her, almost like the ripples in a river.

Within seconds they were back into the camp. "You may go rest. You need plenty of energy for tomorrow." She walked to the Fresh-kill pile, Dropping the rabbit. Then she sprinted to the warriors den for a rest.

“Nice job!” He praised. “Your catching on quickly! All you need to do is adapt that for your specific prey. Mice can smell extremely well, so you need to be downwind if possible, but their eyesight is poor. Squirrels have fairly good eyesight, hearing, and smell. And so-on. But for now we will focus on finding the prey. Take a breath, what can you smell here, other than you and me?” He asked, and he scented the air himself. He could locate a few prey pieces around, but he waited for Flaming’Paw to answer first.

Thorn'Paw was energetic. He didn't wanna rest, He wanted to train more. He wanted to complain but Lynx'call wass already gone. Sad thoughts overtook him. Would he never make a good warrior? After his unsuccessful first hunting session with his mentor. He walked over slowly to the apprentice den. He layed flat on his nest forcing himself to sleep before the sun-high. He was awake. He noticed it was sun-high already. He started to panic. His tiredness could effect his training.

Flamingpaw noted that he tended to ramble, and raised her muzzle to the air, taking in a big breath. She could smell a few small animals near by, mainly some mice and a squirrel or two. She lowered her nose and blinked. "Some mice and a squirrel or two?" she asked, ear flicking as a leaf crunched some ways away.

(Just a note I do have to go in some 25 minutes or so but I'm back on usually around 5:00 Lioden time ^^)

Shade’Feather nodded.
“Do you want to try and catch one of them first? Or would you rather watch, then try?” His tail flicked back and forth. He was starting to get a little excited as he always did just before a hunt. His senses sharpened, but so did his worries. He just hoped he wouldn’t fail in front of his first apprentice. He just needed to not think about it too much.

((Yeah I’ll be out most of the mid-days but I can be on mornings and nights. If we don’t manage to finish this you can continue with whatever you need to.))
