Chapter 2
"Hey Snowpaw, come on! It's time for your first lesson!" Moonheart prodded Snowpaw's side. Snowpaw's eyes flung open instantly.
"What!" She meowed loudly. "Oh, sorry. I'm coming."
"Wake Blizzardpaw too!" Thundertail told her. She nodded as she walked over to her brother.
"Blizzardpaw!" She hissed in his ear.
"Ok. Ok," He meowed, blinking the sleep from his eyes and quickly stretched.
"Today, we'll go over the borders. But first, name all four clans…..Snowpaw," Moonheart meowed.
"TreeClan, StoneClan, NightClan, and OceanClan,"She meowed quickly. She felt the energy quickly rising inside her. Moonheart and Thundertail lead the two young apprentices out into the snowy forest.
It took awhile, but they finally reached TreeClan border. An odd but pleasant smell reached Snowpaw's scent glands. "Is this TreeClan scent?" Blizzardpaw questioned.
"This is the border between our clan and OceanClan. Enjoy this smell, because DarkClan's smell is much worse," Thundertail responded. The apprentices nodded as the walked on.
It seemed like forever, but the four cats reached DarkClan's border. "Yuck!" Snowpaw and Blizzardpaw hissed together.
"Let's keep going, we have a long way before we reach TreeClan's border," Moonheart huffed. The cats kept going, walking slowly they finally reached TreeClan. "Finally, and just in time, the sun is starting to go down."
"TreeClan's scent is very strange," Blizzardpaw commented. Snowpaw nodded in agreement.
"Tomorrow, we'll start hunting," Thundertail meowed to the apprentices. When they finally reached camp, Swiftpaw bounded towards them.
"Hey Blizzardpaw, Snowpaw," He meowed happily. Snowpaw looked at her paws. It was the first time Swiftpaw said hi to her and she felt a new light glowing inside her.
"Hi Swiftpaw," Snowpaw meowed. She realized how hungry she was and just as she was about to grab a rabbit, a cat stopped her.
"Want to share that rabbit I caught?" Swiftpaw suggested. Snowpaw's heart did a back flip as they shared the rabbit. Every once and a while, she noticed Swiftpaw looking up at her. When they finished, Snowpaw looked right into his amazing eyes.
"So," He began. "How was your first lesson?"
"Very tiring!" She meowed at once. She took one last look into Swiftpaw's eyes before she spoke again. "I'm going to go rest, I'll see you later."
"Alright, bye," He said, padding into the forest.
( Swiftpaw's POV)
The forest's trees were covered in snow, and the last of the suns rays made the overall effect look beautiful. Just like Snowpaw he thought. He remembered her glossy white fur and frosty blue eyes. Even if the rabbit didn't taste good, he was too distracted by her to care.
But what about Skypaw? He questioned himself. "Ouch!" He hissed after he bumped into a tree. A squirrel nearby ran away. Now I'm scaring away all the prey! Pull yourself together Swiftpaw!
"Hi Swiftpaw," He turned around to see Snowpaw's sister, Skypaw padding towards him. He looked into her soft yellow eyes and then inspected he silky white fur. Just like her sister, except for her eyes, he thought to himself. "Do you want to hunt together?"
"Sure," He meowed, their pelts brushed together and she licked his ears. At that moment, Swiftpaw felt torn between Skypaw and Snowpaw.
So, that's my second chappy, what do you think?? R&R please!!!
