The quote from this one is "Surprise is the warrior's greatest weapon." –Into the Wild

"What are we going to learn today?" an excited Sandpaw asked her mentor.

"You'll see," Whitenose laughed at his apprentice's enthusiasm.

She bounced around and he decided to show her an important lesson. As she was stalking a bird he lept over her, grabbed the bird, and knocked her over all in one smooth move.

"What was that!" she yowled.

"Surprise is the warrior's greatest weapon," Whitenose teased his apprentice, provoking her into attacking him, and it worked. He smiled, as much as a cat can smile, as they tussled. His apprentice was going to be an amazing warrior.

Sandnose looked over the grave of the cat who was like a mother to her, "Goodbye Moonflight, she whispered softly, not believing that the cat was gone.

Suddenly she felt a weight on her back, "You always said that surprise is the warrior's greatest weapon," her apprentice, Silverpaw, chirped.

"You're right," Sandnose laughed, turning away from the grave. Let's go train, why don't we?"

Sandnose smiled as she crept up on her former mentor, and now mate, Whitenose. She leapt out, yowling.

Whitenose whipped around, about to attack and relaxed when he realized it was only her.

"What was that?" Whitenose asked, his fur still slightly puffed up.

"Surprise is the warrior's greatest weapon," Sandnose quoted him from her time as an apprentice, making him laugh.
