Lichenpaw woke to a sharp jab in her ribs. She groaned, opening her eyes. Lilypad was standing over her.

"It's past dawn, get up!" She mewed. Her words were stern, but there was a glimmer of amusement in her green eyes. The warrior left Lichenpaw to do whatever she needed to. I'm going to have to get used to waking up at dawn... She thought, grooming her fur. She glanced around, and left. The early morning sunlight warmed her pelt slightly, but not much. It was beginning to turn to leaf-fall. The air was getting colder, the leaves turning their vibrant colors. She almost bumped into Hornetpaw.

"Sorry Hornetpaw." Lichenpaw mewed cheerfully. She padded past her, over to her two brothers.

"Hey sis." Finchpaw mewed. He gave her a smile, but it was different. Almost... Nah... Her thoughts wandered to what they'd be doing that day. "We're going to start with battle training." Finchpaw mewed, as if reading her mind.

"Cool! Maybe we can-" Lichenpaw was cut off by a yowl from her mentor.

"You three! Come on!" Lilypad called. Smokepaw and Finchpaw followed their sister, leaving Hornetpaw to clean the elders den. The yellow-and-black she-cat glared after them, whipping around.

Lichenpaw had Smokepaw pinned, and she hissed.

"Do you give up yet?" In his ear. Smokepaw snarled.

"Never!" He thrust his hind legs into her stomach, sending her flying across the clearing. She lay splayed on her side. An unmoving lump of brown tabby fur. Smokepaw looked triumphant until a few moments had gone by and she hadn't moved. "Lichenpaw?" He asked, worried. Finchpaw, Smokepaw, Lilypad, and the other two mentors came closer, when she leaped for Smokepaw again.

"Never under estimate your opponent." She hissed, getting off. Lilypad smiled.

"I think that's enough training for today." The older she-cat meowed, flicking Lichenpaw's shoulder with her tail. The three apprentices followed their mentors.

Finchpaw's POV

He watched his sister saunter back to camp. He was unsure of why he liked the way her tail swayed slightly as she walked. He'd never even noticed it before. Maybe I'm just hungry... He thought shaking out his fur. He couldn't help but wonder, why?
