Snakepaw made his way into the apprentices' den, joints aching from his first day of training. He didn't want to go out tomorrow, but if it meant warriorhood would come sooner, so be it. Yawning, he started heading for his nest, though wasn't paying very close attention to his surroundings. Smack! He stumbled right into someone else. He hissed in irritation. "Watch it!" He snapped, then noticed who it was. Snakepaw narrowed his eyes. "Well well well, look who it is."

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw was leaving his nest.

He sighed as he got to his paws. He was bored. Incredibly, so. Flamewhisper hadn't taken him out for training and the camp was boring after six moons of being stuck in it. However, an instant after he'd stood up on his paws someone crashed into him. Then suddenly a snappish tone was thrown at him.

His emerald gaze narrowed as he saw who he'd crashed into. It was that weird black furred kit-turned-apprentice who had never even so much as given his name! That was another problem with his apprenticeship thus far, he had to share it with this jerk. "I could say the same of you!" He growled.

"Calm down. I was just trying to get to my nest." He said, forgetting that he was the one who started the rudeness. 'It's like all of Birdheart's children are out to get me! What did I do wrong?' He felt like the underdog in the den. Snakepaw paused, tilting his head. "Or wait, are you trying to kick me out of my nest like before? I won't have anywhere to sleep!" The tabby began to growl, fur fluffing up defensively. Stormpaw was such a jerk!

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw's ears folded back.

"Hey! You were trying to wriggle into my family's nest back in the nursery! That wasn't your's to take!" He snarled. "And no! I'm not a jerk like you, so I'm not kicking you out of your nest! I was just trying to leave my nest!" He honestly didn't understand what Snakepaw's problem was! He started the whole thing and clearly had no intentions of apologizing, so why should Stormpaw be nice to him?!

[Deleted]

Snakepaw lowered himself to the ground as Stormpaw yelled. "I'm not the jerk! You're the one who kicked me out of a nest to begin with!" He walked around Stormpaw, making his way over to his nest. He didn't want to talk to anyone right now. 'I feel so alone.' He stepped into his nest and faced the other tom, waiting for him to leave.

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw's glare did not let up as Snakepaw lowered to the ground.

His angry emerald gaze followed the black furred apprentice as he went around Stormpaw, presumably to what was his nest. Stormpaw couldn't smell any other cats aside from the weirdo on it, so he figured it must really be his. "You had a nest to share with Fawnskip back in the nursery!" He snapped. "We had five kits plus Mom to cram into a single nest!" His tail lashed angrily behind him. He huffed. "You never even had the decency to tell me your name. I've just been calling you 'Weirdo' in my mind."

[Deleted]

"Do you think I had room with all of Fawnskip's kits? No. And I'm telling you, she had way more than Birdheart!" He coughed, shaking his head. Snakepaw narrowed his eyes when Stormpaw continued to ask for his name. 'Do you really think I'll give it to you?' "Well, Stormpaw, I guess you'll have to keep calling me weirdo. I'm not giving you my name."

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw had enough.

There was no chance that he would ever even consider being nice now! "Fine! Be that way!" He snarled. "Alright, so I'll concede that Fawnskip has a lot of kits too.... But you threw a bone at Frostedpaw and then you started sucking up to my Mom! What the heck was that?!"

[Deleted]

He rolled his eyes. "I doubt I can convince you, but that bone throwing was accidental. I didn't realize your sister was in the way." He dug his claws into the ground when Stormpaw continued. "What else could I have done? You two were telling her how awful I was!"

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw growled.

"You shouldn't have been throwing things!" He insisted. "Well, you should've owned up to the fact that you hit my sister with a bone!" He didn't think it was possibly for him to get any tenser. He was just so angry with the weirdo and he didn't seem sorry at all! He seemed determined to convince everyone that nothing was his fault!

[Deleted]

"I didn't exactly throw it. I just kicked it away." Snakepaw rolled his eyes. "And I did own up to it! I said it was an accident, but no one seemed to hear me!" He nearly shouted, grumbling and flopping down onto his nest. This den was packed with inconsiderate idiots. He couldn't stand it.

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw shook his head angrily.

"You should've been careful!" He snapped. "And did you even apologize?!" He hissed. He didn't like how this black furred jerk was hiding! He was a coward too! How was he supposed to share a den with a cat like this?!

[Deleted]

"What does it matter? You won't change your point of view anytime soon." He muttered back, wrapping his tail around himself. He buried his face in his fur, wishing the tom would just leave.

[Stormsong]

Stormpaw growled in a low voice.

He tore his gaze away from the black furred apprentice with a huff. If he was so offended at making enemies, why didn't he try to make amends?! He was giving up, which surely meant he didn't want to be nice. The angry gray and white furred apprentice stalked out of the apprentice's den, leaving his newfound enemy behind.
