Icepaw nodded to what her mentor said. "Wow." Was all she could say. Rockclan was tricky and Rockclan had some interesting names for there warriors. She looked at the territory belonging to Rockclan. "Just wow."
Then a question came to mind. "Has....has Iceclan and Rockclan ever fought?" She asked a little shakishly.

Noticing Icepaw's worried tone, Petalfur kind of gave the apprentice a pitying look. "Dear, all the clans have all fought each other," Petalfur responded honestly taking a serious but reassuring expression. "If you're asking about recent events - no, they haven't."
Petal decided then that it would be best to continue now rather than delve into past battles. Flicking her tail and stretching out her neck, she pointed with her nose to the Fireclan territory off in the distance.
"That's Fireclan," Petalfur informed Icepaw, returning her head to a more comfortable position. "Description and guess? Questions?"

"Nope I dont have any questions." She said excited to see what was next. She then heard about Iceclan and Rockclan fighting "thank Cloudclan those two clans never fought." She said under her breath.

(Im sorry I didn't see that part.)
"Fireclan, they are a clan that hunts on the prairie and in the open." She said in a short description. "They are led by Darkstar and their deputy is Jackalfrost I think?" She questioned. "They do hunt the ocassinal vole, But they hunt mostly rabbits." Was all she could think of.

Before that day, if anyone had told Petalfur that a newly-apprenticed young cat could recite some of the most important information about the most distant clan from Icelclan, the Bengal she-cat would have exploded from laughter. "Wow!" Was all Petal could think to say, smiling abroad. Blinking away her immense surprise, she nodded in congratulations. "You must get around the elder's den frequently, then!" Petalfur continued, though considering that Maplefrost was the only active constantly attentive elder, she found that to be the wrong source.
Petal and Maplefrost had an... interesting relationship. Petal would always go and try to care for him - recently it was an infuriating tick and a broken den - which annoyed the crap out of the old blind tom. Yes, she had more respect for him than a worker bee does it's queen, yet she couldn't never help herself when the chance came to bug the elder. Secretly, Petalfur believed that he might actually appreciate the help, but he just didn't want to admit it to himself.
"Hey, we finished the boarder tour early. Want to just walk around a bit to get the feel of the territory?- Like I said: it's huge, so good luck remembering every nook and cranny." Petalfur suggested, padding in the general direction of camp. "Or we can just head back to camp... That would be the more lazy option, I suppose..."

"Well we can walk around a little more." She meowed after her mentor praised her. "And yea I do go by the elders alot." She laughed.

Maybe she talked to that Redsomething that Maplefrost was always talking about? Petalfur thought, surprised, regardless, that Icepaw had in fact frequently visited the elders. Shaking her fur to warm up against the chilly Leaf-fall air, Petalfur nodded to Icepaw's response and padded on silently, her eyes drifting across the sparse forestry and the steep cliff-faces as she maneuvered her way across the territory.
She wasn't really sure how she had ended up there, only that she soon found herself standing in a mossy clearing with the steady river full of fish gurgling past. The small section of forestry that Iceclan's territory provided stretched overhead, the tree's branches creating a canopy -like shield where only a dappling of light shone through. It was the most beautiful place to be when the moon was full at night.
It was where Petalfur and Ashfrost had met. It was where they had agreed to be mates, and then- it was the last place Petalfur had seen him before he disappeared once more.
Petalfur couldn't suppress a sigh, forgetting the Icepaw was, hopefully, behind her. Hanging her head, the she-cat reflected on the happiness she had felt for the few moons she and Ashfrost had been mates. He had disappeared so many times that she always anticipated the numbing pain.
I'm done with him now, she thought earnestly, suppressing tears. I'll find someone else that will care.
After a few moments, Petalfur realized with a start that she was in the middle of a training session. Taking on a guilty look, she glanced around. "There's lots of places to train," she stated blandly, trying to cover up the reason for coming here. "But we'll come here. It's a nice quiet, soft place to do so."

She nodded to her mentor not sure what to say about the gloomyness. Her mentor did seem sad but she didnt want tk ask. "Alright. Sounds great." She meowed.

Petalfur nodded again, thoughtfully, struggling to keep her happy face. After a few moments, she licked her lips to ease the numbing blessed upon her by the cold, and twitched her tail for 'enthusiasm'. "It's a shame it's so cold out," Petalfur remarked. "It would be nice to get some swim lesson time in, maybe some fishing, too."
A sprinkle of rain began to fall then, brushing Petalfur's pelt with tiny dewdrops. It blanketed her, giving some form of comfort that she didn't know you could get from standing in a light rain. The water hadn't seeped through her fur yet, thank goodness.

'Swimming!' She thought. That would of been amazing right now. "Swimming and fishing would be nice, but its leaf-fall and soon to be leaf-bare." She sighed.

Petalfur nodded, trying to think of what they could do next. I suppose I could give a quick intro to hunting, since that's one of the big next steps? She thought, still considering her options.
Agreeing with this thought, she settled herself down, ready to give the introduction. "Let me introduce you to the prey the territory holds," Petalfur began, her mind stretching a touch. "Iceclan's prey tends to include squirrels, fish, small birds, shrews, mice, voles, and larger birds like hawks. Large birds take several cats to bring down, though, but they sure do make a feast!"

(Oh gosh this is late)
Icepaws eyes widened at word hawk and remembered what the elders said about hawks being able to swoop down and snatch a single kit. She shuddered at the thoight and set her mind back to the prey she'd be hunting. She gave a small nod and waited to see what else her mentor would say.

Petalfur sighed, making up her mind about Ashfrost while her head was elsewhere. But it would be complicated, so she didn't let herself delve into the thoughts too much.
"Well, then, It's been a long day, and it's nearly sun-high," Petalfur remarked, looking at the dim shadow her frame cast through the thick clouds. There was just enough to tell what time it was. "I'm sure you're famished! Let's head back to camp. We'll start hunting tomorrow." With that, she started off back towards camp. She had unfinished business to attend to there. You can post again if you want, then I'll make another thread. Template by Meg❤ |

(Ok)
Icepaw nodded as they padded back to the camp she kinda was tired but not that bad. Maybe hunting will be less tiring.
