I was finally alone. Today was one of those days that left me thinking, Is there really a purpose anymore? The answer would vary from time to time, depending on how low I felt. Today, I answered yes. I was here for Amberpelt. She needed me, no matter what she said in public. As I thought of her, I could feel the pride swelll up in my chest, consuming the sadness that was stuffed down inside. If she wasn't on this planet, with me, it would suffocate me, choke me until I knew for sure I couldn't breathe anymore. It would devour me from the inside out, turning my insides into crow-food. Just the mention of Swiftstep would... I stooped, feeling as if I was unable to breathe. I let a tear fall onto my dark pelt and watched it hit the ground. That name. I couldn't even think about it. Another tear fell. Amberpelt was a lving reminder of her, but she reminded me of all of the good times we'd spent together. Another tear. She reminded me of the night Swiftstep approached me about our kits. It was then that I realized she was pregnant.
Yet another tear. She was so young... That fox should not have taken her! I yowled into the silence, listening as the birds cawed and flew away. My sadness turned into anger. I'll get that fox one day, and put it through as much pain as I could provide. I would make it suffer! I lashed out at a tree and stared at the clawmarks I had left. I noticed there were a pair nearby. It was the mark the elders always left at a grave so no one would dig it up accidentally. I knew this one well. It was Swiftstep's. I had been here many times before since the day I had witnessed her burial. The memories flooded me,a dn I collapsed, unable to stand on my unstable limbs. Tears flooded from my eyes, turning the ground by my head wet as I continued to mourn my lost mate. She should still be here, with me. She was never emant to be worm-food before her time. She will be avenged.[/style]

She didn't know how the leader expected her to be productive today. She was less than a half-moon into her apprenticeship, and she still was a little untrusting of her mentor. Applepaw had been somewhat distant, then again she had the perfect mentor for being distant. Maybe one day she could learn to trust him. She had already been with her brother this morning, but Flamepaw had gone training just a short moment ago, leaving Applepaw all alone. She had gone in search of her parents, but neither one could be found. They had to be out on patrol, it was the only solution the apprentice could think of
The red tabby sighed as she made her way out of camp. She was bored, maybe she could attempt to find a mouse or something to chase. Without her brother, she was pretty much lost. Her paws bounced as they carried her through the territory. She forgot about being silent, and every leaf was an object for her to play with. Hearing a yowl, the apprentice's ears perked up. This could be fun. Running toward the noise, ignoring all instruction from her parents to stay away from trouble, Applepaw went toward the sound.
Creeping closer, the young apprentice heard scratching. She felt a little fear creep over her body, but excitement outweighed the fear. Noticing her mentor was the cause, Applepaw stared for a few moments, until she finally got the nerve to move. Padding closer to her mentor she let out a deep sigh. "Ravenleap, are you okay?" she asked quietly. She didn't want to to scare the tom, or anything, but her curiosity was getting the better of her. "Training me can help."

When he realized someone was actually there, he jumped to his paws, shaking his head to rid himself of the tears. He sniffed the air, wondering if anyoen else was here. The pangs of his sadness were gone for the moment, forgotten as his apprentice spoke. " I-I'm fine, Applepaw, " Ravenleap stuttered, still getting over his tears. He nodded, not really wanting to talk anymore. A smile crept across his face. Training would definitely help take his mind off of ... her. He didn't dare think her name, in fear that he would start crying again. " Would y-you like to go h-hunting or practice c-combat skills? " Ravenleap hated talking right after he'd just cried. It made him feel insecure and vulnerable, open to verbal attack for being a blubbering widower.[/style]

"I can see that you are fine, especially with all the crying and yowling I heard." Applepaw murmured rolling her eyes. She wasn't fooled one bit. But she knew deep down she really didn't want to know, so she didn't ask any further into the situation. He had his secrets, she had hers, everyone did.
Her mentor had asked her a very tough question, and Applepaw just could not decide. Combat-training would give her a little edge when wrestling with her brother. Flamepaw wouldn't know what hit him. But then again, hunting would mean she could go out of camp more, and show her brother how much better of a hunter she was than him.
After taking a few moments to think about it, the energetic apprentice bounced on her paws. "Combat-training. I would like to show my brother I'm stronger than him."
[/color] Applepaw finally decided, looking up at her mentor and grinning. Flamepaw wouldn't know what was coming![/blockquote][/blockquote][/size] |

He nodded at Applepaw before looking away. *sniffle* So, um, uh… Let's just do, um, improvisation. Just come at me with *sniff* all you've got, but, uh, remember, claws sheathed. Ravenleap shook his head quickly, hoping th esniffles would leave him. He crouched low to the ground and tensed up his back leg muscles. The black fur on his pelt rippled as hi muscles did so unerneath. Then he leapt, the force of his legs sending him into the air and with paws outstretched towards Applepaw. He had faith in her to come up with soemthing that would knock him down.[/style]
