"Cinderpaw! Get up, training!" a familar voice sounded close to the apprentice's head.

Cinderpaw jerked awake, her beautiful eyes flashing open. "Yes, Cloudtail," she murmered groggily before struggling to her paws and padding out of the apprentice's den. Sunlight flickered through the densely covered trees, warming her gray tabby pelt instantly.

She scrambled over to her mentor, smiling warmly at him. "What are we doing today?" she queried excitedly.

Cloudtail chuckled at his apprentice's eagerness and meowed, "We're going to the Sandy Hollow to practice your battle moves. But first off, are you hungry? I'm starving!" With his last words, he took off towards the fresh kill pile.

Cinderpaw let out a low purr and followed Cloudtail. She glanced down at the pile and grabbed a rather large and fat mouse. Greenleaf was upon them and hunting patrols were going great. Everyone seemed to come back with tons of prey, but they would still have to go back and collect the rest.

She padded over to Hollypaw, her best friend, and grinned warmly at her. Hollypaw was busy pulling feathers off of a chaffinch when Cinderpaw reached her. "When are you going to practice your battle moves again? Cloudtail and I are going out there today." she asked the black she-cat. They hadn't been to ome single training session together since she had injured her back leg. Since then, she had trouble getting to spend time with her too.

"I don't know," Hollypaw admitted sadly. "But, maybe I can convince Brackenfur to go today!"

Cinderpaw brightened immediately. "That'd be cool! I'll ask Cloudtail now!" Hollypaw's eyes glittered with excitement as Cinderpaw gulped down her mouse wordlessly, and raced over to Cloudtail, who was now sharing tounges with Dustpelt and Brackenfur.

This is the purfect time to ask! They're both here. Cinderpaw thought eagerly as she touched her mentor's shoulder with her nose.

"Cloudtail, uh, could Hollypaw come training with us?" she asked quickly, glancing nervously at Brackenfur, who was purring with amusement.

Cloudtail meowed sharply as he replied, "Thats a question you'd have to ask Brackenfur." His eyes betrayed his tone, as they were dancing with laughter.

Cinderpaw turned to Brackenfur, her eyes hopeful.

Brackenfur smiled warmly at the apprentice and answered, "Sure, we'll come." His golden brown body rippled with muscles as he rose to his paws. "Hollypaw!" he called as his eyes searched the camp clearing for his black apprentice.

Hollypaw finished her chaffinch, and raced over to Brackenfur. "Thank you!" she purred happily, touching her nose to his. She exchanged cheerful glances with Cinderpaw, and started circling the three cats anxiously. "Can we go now? Please?" she begged, looking at them with huge, round eyes.

Cloudtail and Brackenfur nodded and raced towards the sharp brown brambles and tore out of camp.

Cinderpaw smiled to herself and pelted after them, laughing. "Race ya! Last one to the hollow is a lazy badger!"
