LinkShadedpaw sighed.
It had been a moon since the kittypets had joined Stormclan.
She and her siblings had been given their 'apprentice'names, Shadedpaw, Whitepaw, and Nightpaw.
Her mentor was surprisingly Rainstar herself.
She looked over at Nightpaw and Whitepaw, who were sound asleep.
She had trouble, as her thoughts kept her awake.
She knew Nightpaw's mentor was a Silky, Long-Furred black tom named Darknight.
Her brother's mentor was a bright-hearted golden-orange tom named Scatteredleaf.
She glanced at Dappledpaw. The black and white tom was curled in the far corner of the den.
The passing of his siblings had towed him down. She was hardly affected, as she didn't know them.
She frowned, and rested her head on her paw. Casting a glance at Dappledpaw, she closed her eyes.
She drifted into a calm sleep.

LinkShe was awoke by the shifting of the other apprentices.
Sunlight was creeping into the den, casting a golden glow.
She hopped out with her siblings, and went to Rainstar.
"So, what are we doing today?" She asked, flicking an ear.
"Today, we're going to practice hunting. You'll see what we'll be doing, follow me."
She followed Rainstar into the forest, casting a sympathetic glance at Dappledpaw before leaving the camp.
The tom had been shadowed by the apprentice den, crouched at the entrence.
"You, Whitepaw, and Nightpaw will be practicing your hunting." Rainstar meowed.
"You may work together, or be as independent as you'd like." Darknight added, while Scatteredleaf nodded.
The apprentices glanced at each other. She noticed Whitepaw looked a bit off, but she shrugged and ignored it.
They all stalked off, in seperate directions.

LinkThey all came back a while afterwards.
She had caught a bird and plump mouse.
She glanced at her siblings.
Nightpaw had caught two mice, while Whitepaw had caught only a vole.
"Very good. Put them on the fresh-kill pile, or hand them to an Elder or Queen.
Afterwards, go enjoy the rest of the daylight that's still left." Rainstar said to them.
They nodded, and walked off.
Knowing the Queens and Elders were fed, she took a bird from the pile.
She took it to the apprentice den.

Link"Hey Dappledpaw, want to share this with me?" She meowed to the shadowed tom.
"Sure, I guess." Dappledpaw mumbled, stalking over to take a few bites.
After a few bites, Dappledpaw had stopped, and crawled back to the corner.
She gulped down the last bite, frowning.
"Well, I'll see you later, then." She mewed.
She looked around the camp. There wasn't much to do.
She jumped as Whitepaw brushed past her.
"Hey! You nearly made me jump out of my fur!" She exclaimed.
"Sorry!" Whitepaw meowed.
"Wait! I have a question!" She meowed.
"What?" Whitepaw responded, turning to her.
"What was with you earlier? You just seemed sorta.. different." She asked.
"Oh...just some thoughts is all." He answered, and walked away without another word.
