Redpaw shrugged, conceding the point. "True, if you're in the open, speed is your best tool," he said, standing once again to demonstrate a new crouch. "This one isn't really any harder, just... different. I'm sure you'll be able to do it." With that said, the russet-furred tom crouched once again; this time, he set his sights on a lazily drifting dandelion seed, keeping the moving target in focus as he prepared to leap once again. This time, he distributed more power into his hind legs, readying his forepaws to snatch his target from the air. Adjusting one last time, he leapt, his long fur smoothing to fit the contours of his body as he launched into the air. With a precise flick of the paw, Redpaw snagged the drifting seed, then began to fall back to the ground. Landing on all fours, he lifted his right forepaw to display his prize. "And there you have it," he said, purring, and moved aside to let the other tom demonstrate what he'd learned.

This move was definitely... more advanced. Being as young as he was he highly doubted even with him being great at mimicking that he could pull this one off. Showing his teeth with a small shy smile he went to picking a target. There was a moth, fluttering about. But he would wait until it took flight again.
So with that he moved himself in the crouch, his form was flawless. Although it felt odd being in such a crouched position. Not long after her had gotten into the formation did the moth take flight, something he was not particularly ready for. Huffing the slightest bit he launched himself through the air, heading directly for the moth but only being able to snag its wing. Leaving a trail of dust as his claw shredded it.
Not only did he miss but his landing was most definitely sloppy. He twisted awkwardly through the air until at long last he hit the ground painfully. His joints not completely ready for such an impact. |  ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

Redpaw winced at the sight of Tidepaw's uncomfortable looking landing, then stood and hurried over to where his friend had hit the ground. "You okay?" he asked; he doubted the other tom could have hurt himself too seriously, but the look of concern in his normally cheerful gaze was obvious. After a moment, he grinned sympathetically, hoping it would help soothe any damage- physical or in terms of pride- that the fall had caused.

Tidepaw bit into his tongue as his legs shivered just the slightest bit before he looked up at the other apprentice, the pain slowly draining from his pale yellow gaze. "Just makes me..." He trailed, as he shivered, "Stronger."
Getting fully to his paws again he stretched each leg out individually, letting the muscles straighten again before he mewed, "Alright, guess that's enough attempts for one day." | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

Mischief quickly clouded Redpaw's icy gaze, the concern no longer relevant as it was clear that Tidepaw hadn't seriously hurt himself. "Right, well, it is hard to be as great as I am. It's completely understandable that you'd need a break," he said, a lopsided grin spreading across his face as he spoke. He turned quickly, batting Tidepaw's ears with his tail as he did so. "So, my friend, what shall we do now? Go on an adventure? Take over the other clans?" he asked, chest puffed out for effect. He turned back to the other tom, and added, "I leave the choice to you," only just managing to keep a straight face.

Be as good as Redpaw, he snorted to himself. Grinning at the other tom's comment as he sat down and let his hind-legs rest. It felt as if he had pulled something but he ignored it. Most of the time when he ignored something the particular thing just went away.
Upon the mentioning of the word adventure the apprentice's ears shot forward, his eyes beginning to sparkle like that of a kit.
"An adventure sounds most... adventurous." He purred, his tail swaying out behind him as he brought himself to his paws again and headed for the camp exit/ entrance. "Shall we?" | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

"I dare say you are correct. Adventures, for the most part, are rather adventurous," Redpaw replied, padding quickly until he had passed Tidepaw and brushed through the camp's exit. He considered stopping to get his bearings, but dismissed the notion and kept walking forward. "So, any ideas as to where we should go?" he called over his shoulder, his ever-present grin blossoming into a smile at the touch of the sun's rays on his long, russet colored fur.

Where to go, where to go. He thought to himself, looking over the territory as soon as they had exited. It basically all looked the same, although under the most bland things there could often be treasure.
"Well my friend," He mewed, trailing as he glanced around. "I haven't really started training yet, so why don't you surprise me."

Redpaw nodded, his stride picking up a hint of importance, and his eyes once again danced with mischief. "Of course. Leaving the decisions to the master is often the best course of action. Great response, my friend," he said, barely managing to keep the amusement out of his voice. "Well, as it seems I am to be the guide on this adventure, I would say that the best place to visit is our border with IceClan," he added after a moment of thought. Stopping a moment, he glanced around, only just making out the soaring peaks of the neighboring clan's territory. "Try and keep up," Redpaw called, then dashed forward, his paws tingling with excitement as he dashed through the long grass, his pelt shining in the warm rays of the sun.
(haha that's okay)

Tidepaw did not at all expect the tom to take off as fast as he had, he was not at all ready for it. Sure he had the speed and stamina of the Fireclan blood but at the same time he hadn't been out in the field training. So basically everything was rusty and he was terribly out of shape. But he tried to keep up all the less.
Iceclan was the clan known for their mountainous terrain. The clan that had the most jumping ability. This particular clan in general just seemed to be interesting. Indeed, he couldn't wait to see the territory close up. This was probably the only reason his paws were still carrying him at such speeds.
"We almost there yet?" He yowled, his lungs stinging him like a thousand bees. | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

Redpaw threw a laugh over his shoulder, and said, "Can't keep up?" though in truth he was beginning to tire as well. He turned his attention back to the towering bulk of the mountains, careful not to trip over anything as he ran. He began to slow to a steady trot just as the monotonously flat prairie of FireClan gave way to the uneven terrain of the IceClan border."Well," he said, stopping to catch his breath as he turned around to face Tidepaw, "what do you think?"

Tidepaw had been too stuck on the ground before him to look up before hand, so when he finally did he was most genuinely amazed. "Wow." He purred, eyes wide and bright as he gazed on. "It's surprising cats can actually make their home up there... and a whole clan!"
Turning his attention to the red apprentice he added, "Ever meet an Iceclan cat?" Tidepaw guess the tom had been to at least one of the gatherings, "I have." | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

"That's what I thought, too," Redpaw replied, gazing back up at the mountains, trying in vain to discern their highest points. Redpaw shook his head at Tidepaw's question; he'd not been to a gathering yet, and so he'd not yet had the opportunity to meet cats from any of the other clans. When Tidepaw mentioned that he had met an IceClan cat, Redpaw refocused his attention on his friend, curiosity dancing through his icy blue gaze. "You have? What were they like?" he asked, ears perked in anticipation for Tidepaw's reply.

"Well," He started, a smirk growing vastly upon his ruddy face as he stepped forward, looking as if he held the answer to everything. "It was a she, an apprentice much like us."
Tidepaw now began pacing back and fourth upon the border, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "Specifically Silverpaw... her fur was jet black, thicker than our own..." The tom began to recall, thinking back to the gathering. "And her back legs... looked strong, meant for jumping." | ◀ MADE BY ★MEULK OF GS |

Redpaw noticed the superiority that was written all over Tidepaw's face, and while normally he'd have teased his friend for such feelings, he was more interested in the IceClan apprentice at the moment. Though the answer interested him, Redpaw's curiosity was not yet sated, and still his gaze held a spark of interest. "Did she mention what it was like in the mountains?" he asked, his gaze momentarily slipping back toward the monstrous heaps of rock before turning back to Tidepaw.
