Chapter Nine:
A Double Training Session
Thanx 2 my 1 reviewer! Anyway, here is chapter nine.
"Cloudpaw! Get up!" exclaimed Fireheart, mewing into the apprentices den where there were two less apprentices. The small white puffball curled in the corner of the den with Brightpaw sturred, and padded over to his mentor.
"Yeah?" asked Cloudpaw.
"Wake up Tigerpaw. We are going on a double training session with her and Sandstorm. On our way home we'll go see Princess," mewed Fireheart. Cloudpaw nodded, and walked over to the orange and black ball of fur curled up next to her brother. Fireheart and Sandstorm were just finishing off a vole when both apprentices walked drowsily out of the den.
"Ready to go?" asked Sandstorm.
"Sure..." mewed Tigerpaw, drowsily. Sandstorm gave a mrrow of laughter. She and Fireheart lead the two apprentices out of the camp. First, Sandstorm showed Tigerpaw the borders while Fireheart and Cloudpaw trained. Than, Sandstorm braught Tigerpaw to the training hollow, and instructed her how to attack Cloudpaw.
"Okay, Tigerpaw. Cloudpaw is a rogue, and is attacking your camp, what do you do? He is attacking warriors, and headed towards the nursery," Sandstorm mewed. Tigerpaw quietly ran up behind Cloudpaw, and pounced on him, turning him onto his belly, and using just her paws to scrape his belly. Cloudpaw laughed.
"That tickles!" exclaimed the fluffy white apprentice. The sun was turning towards the west as the four cats exited the training hollow.
"Princess!" exclaimed Fireheart. The pale tabby she-cat was hopping after a songbird and heard Fireheart's call.
"Hi! Fireheart! Cloudkit! It's so good to see you!" exclaimed Princess.
"Cloudpaw now, mama! I'm Fireheart's apprentice!" exclaimed Cloudpaw.
"Oh! Congratulations!" Princess mewed. Sandstorm and Tigerpaw popped thier heads up out of the long grass outside Princess's fence.
"Hi!" mewed Sandstorm.
"Hello. Fireheart, who is this?" asked Princess.
"This is my mate, Sandstorm," mewed Fireheart. Princess smiled, and bursted with joy.
"OH! Oh, Congratulations!" exclaimed Princess. She looked at the other she-cat. "Is this your kit?"
"No-no!" Sandstorm laughed. "This is my apprentice, Tigerpaw." Princess looked a bit embarassed. The sun began to drag it's last rays behind the mountains.
"Well, I should get inside," mewed Princess.
"We should go, Bye!" exclaimed Fireheart.
"Nice to meet you, Sandstorm, and Tigerpaw, and Congratulations, Cloudpaw!" exclaimed Princess, and she hopped back in through the cat door.
