Goldpaw's training
Goldpaw woke up to the sunshine in her face, in front of her was a plumped mouse. She ate it then walked out of the apprentices den yawning and stretching. As soon as she was walking to the nursery she saw Longtail and Darkstripe whispering and laughing.“I feel bad for Willowpelt!” Darkstripe said. “She has to train a kittypet!”
”I’m not a kittypet no more!” Goldpaw hissed. “You’ll both see that I can catch prey too!”
”That’s great for a kittypet!” Longtail sneered.
Goldpaw was about to cry when Graystripe steps in front of her hissing,
“leave her alone!” Fireheart said hissing.
“A clan born cat defending a kittypet!” Dustpaw laughed, coming towards them. “Graystripe, we lost you to the kittypets!”
“Goldpaw is not a kittypet anymore!” Graystripe snarled. “I want all three of y’all to stop being mean to Goldpaw! This is only her second day here, give her a break!”
Longtail and Darkstripe rolled their eyes then walked away.
"Thanks, Graystripe!" Goldpaw said.
"No problem." Graystripe replied,
Williwpelt came towards Goldpaw with a happy look on her face.
"Hi Willowpelt!" Goldpaw said. "ready to train?"
"I should be asking you that." Willowpelt replied, laughing a little. "Ready when you are."
Willowpelt and Goldpaw went out to the forest
"What can you smell?" Willowpelt asked Goldpaw.
Goldpaw sniffed the air and she smelt a rabbit.
"I smell a rabbit near by." She answered back.
"Very well!" Willowpelt said, nodding. "can you catch it?"
Goldpaw nodded then raced to where the rabbit was. By the time she got near it she slowly crept up to the rabbit. Goldpaw was about to pounce when she accidentally steeped on a twig. The rabbit saw her then jumped away.
"You didn't crouch low enough." Willowpelt began, "you didn't be careful of your surroundings and you can't just run to the rabbit, you have to use light steps."
"I thought we were training." Goldpaw said.
"We are." Willowpelt said, sniffing the air. "sniff the air and find another prey, the rabbit had gone to Windclan's territory."
"What's a Windclan?" Goldpaw asked.
"There are four clans total" Willowpelt explained. "ShadowClan, RiverClan, Windclan, and of course Thunderclan."
"Okay!" Goldpaw said, sniffing the air. "I smell a vole!"
"Good!" Willowpelt said. "can you catch it?"
"I sure can!" Goldpaw replied. "crouch low, be careful of my surroundings, and walk light steps."
"Very good, Goldpaw!" Willowpelt cheered. 'now, go get that vole!"
With determination, Goldpaw slowly crept near the vole. She looked around the area to make sure there were no twigs then she pounced on the vole, killing it with one strong bite. Willowpelt looked at the vole amazed.
