Strawberrypaw (Skye and Crystal only, please)

[Skye *Sukai-chan*]

Nightfrost had left the camp just after the sun came over the trees, looking for his apprentice, Strawberrypaw. He had been wondering the forest ever since, looking for her. He had been told that she had gone to the dunes to sunbathe, but by the time the black cat had gotten there, she had left. He had caught her scent heading in this direction, and thought that it couldn't hurt, since he had no other idea where she might be. Now he was arriving, and the scent was getting stronger, but he still hadn't found his charge yet. He sighed, and set off through the grasses, wondering if she was layind down. He reminded himself that he really couldn't blame her, it had been days since her apprentice ceremony and they still hadn't started training, but he had wished that Strawberrypaw had stayed at camp. Now sunhigh was approaching, and they had gotten no where.

Strawberrypaw tumbled in, making quite a... majestic entrance.
"Good morning, Nightfrost!" mewed the Apprentice brightly. Her pale ginger fur shone a dark red over the sun's rays. Smelling faintly of the sand in the dunes, Strawberrypaw curled her tail lightly over her paws and sat, waiting for Nightfrost to start training--she couldn't wait.

OOC:: Sorry, It's kinda short.

ooc- that's fine. I already set up most of the scene ^^

Nightfrost was startled when Strawberrypaw came out of nowhere and sat down infront of him. In all honestly, he had expected her to be a little harder to find, but he was glad that he didn't have to look. Also, she seemed completly ready to start training. That was strange, he hadn't even told her why he was looking for her. Someone that he had asked back at camp must of told her that he was ready to start training her. Nightfrost shrugged it off, and concentrated on the task at hand. Now that Strawberrypaw was infront of him, eagerly waiting for him to start her education, Nightfrost was at a loss of where to begin. Usually the best place to start when training an apprentice was to show them around the territory, but it was to late for that, it would nearly be moonhigh by the time they finished. A breeze ruffled trough the grass, blowing a strong scent of the twoleg path over. Nightfrost had a brilliant idea. Why not start her recognizing the scents? It was as good a place to start as any, and there was plenty of time to show his apprentice all of the nearby smells. They didn't have to do everything today, of course. Nodding mentally to himself, Nightfrost started the lesson. "Ok, Strawberrypaw, I thought that we could start by learning some of the scents that you are likly to encounter around here." Nightfrost hesitated, unsure what to do next. "Does that sound ok to you?" Turning the pressure of talking over to Strawberrypaw was not a mentorly thing to do, but Nightfrost was scrambling for words and that was the best that he could come up with.

Strawberrypaw flicked her tail.
"Sure, that's fine." her voice was lofty, with a kittypet accent. Turning her head back toward the Dunes, she narrowed her eyes.
"Tommorow can we explore the Dunes, Nightfrost?" The former kittypet meowed. Her ginger pelt ruffled against the breeze, and she lifted her cream colored paws. Though Strawberrypaw wasn't really the 'talkative type,' she was eager to learn the way of a warrior.

"Sure." Nightfrost replied. "We can explore the Dunes... and the rest of SoreClan territory while we're at it." Tomarrow would be as good of a day as any to show Strawberrypaw around. He trotted over to the twoleg path that had given him his brilliant training idea, and tried to locate the strongest two-leg scent. Over by a broad, flat rock under a tree, he caught it. There was also the smell of the two-leg food there. He guestured to Strawberrypaw with his tail to come closer. "This is the two-legs smell. You should recognize it," he instructed.

OOC:
1. Sorry for taking FOREVER to post.
2. SO SORRY for taking FOREVER to post. >.<

Strawberrypaw smelled the two-leg scent.

My Two-leg walked me there.

Pain gripped the tabby's heart.
"I recongize it, Nightfrost." Strawberrypaw meowed, her voice suddenly quiet and almost choked.

[Skye *Sukai-chan*]

Nightfrost looked worridly at Strawberrypaw, hearing her tone of voice. it was suddenly... depressed. That was not good. In a sure-to-be-pitiful attempt to distract his apprentice from something that he had no idea how to handle, Nightfrost nodded, "Good! How long ago do you think that these two-legs where here? Just take a guess" he asked, wanting her estamate, if only to see if she how much he had to teach her.

_{Strawberrypaw sniffed the air.
"Um... probably only a few days ago. Maybe 3 or 4?"} Strawberrypaw mewed, licking her cream fur momentarily.[/color][/sub]
