Lepoardpaw laughed and leaped from branch to branch. Her golden spotted fur gleamed in the sunlight. Her clear blue eyes traveled over the path she would take. Her leaps were graceful and fluid.

"Come down!" cried her mentor, Frozenpool.

Her bubbly laugh floated down to her mentor's ears.

"Now!" he yowled, exasperated. A sigh resounded from the she-cat's mouth. The golden cat jumped off her branch and flipped couple times before expertly landing on her paws. Lepoardpaw smiled and asked, "Where to?" Frozenpool grumbled and expectantly stalked away. Lepoardpaw now had a grin on her face and her eyes twinkled.
