[/size][/justify][/blockquote][/center]Scoutpaw glanced around the camp. It was half empty, most of the cats were either in their dens hiding from the cold or where out on a patrol or hunt. Being actually the smallest apprentice at the moment Scout had to keep proving himself. By actually catching as much prey as he could, ever since his mentor taught him now to hunt he had been doing amazing. It was the fighting part that challenged him, he was so much smaller than even some of the apprentices and could guess that he wouldn’t catch up in size any time soon. I got Dad’s height issues.. He thought with a small purr, thinking of his dad again, but as he stood and walked to a tall tree. The thoughts of his dad disappeared as Scoutpaw’s green eyes narrowed before he hunkered down and leaped into the tree.
Normally Scoutpaw would have been able to climb up all the way, he was good at stuff like this, but when all his paws found was ice, Scoutpaw flipped in the air and barely landed back on the ground with his paws. Once he hit the ground, Scoutpaw slumped to the snow and glared up at the tree. He heard a familiar chuckle and turned to see the medicine cat, Fadedstorm, laughing softly from his din. Scout guessed Faded had seen Scoutpaw fall. With a slightly agitated sign, Scoutpaw hopped up and ran out of the camp.
If anything Scoutpaw was a very fast cat, he hunkered close to the ground and just flat out ran. Many of his friends had said he looks like a small orange ball darting across everything and that’s how he probably looked now. He ran in a direction he knew since he was a kit...literally. Scoutpaw came to a stop in the trees before the Sunningrocks. The apprentice lied down behind a bit of undergrowth and lied there, his green eyes going over the rocks, lost in the memory of when he and his three siblings had escaped the nursery and made it to the freezing water. I’m glad Dawn and Emberstar came when they did...or we would be frozen little kits. He let his thoughts move around to that day as he sat and watched the rocks, thinking.for truth with 380 words and a note saying sorry it took so long!
