Ooc: stupid school stoppin me from rping meeeeeh
"That would work. But you must know where to aim. See this tendon in my leg?" He lifted his paw and showed her a spot on the back of it. "Aim for this with a sharp jab. Go for the back legs first, that will break their supports and help you overwhelm the cat, regardless of their size." He positioned himself in front of her. "If you're ready, you can try it on me this time."
[align=center]OOC: Meh, I don't think Silverrain is roleplaying at all. Gonna have to demote her to warrior and promote someone else. Tinysaur, Goldpaw's getting a new mentor once and for all. :)
IC: Aspenstar nodded. "You'd be welcome to join us," he meowed.
Staticpaw nodded her head with a determined look in her eyes. "Okay," turning her head to look at her mentors legs she crouched low and shot out with tense legs aiming fr Snakeshades legs. Reach her paws to his tendons she smirk while her whole body tensed.
[align=center]Aspenstar glanced quickly over his shoulder at the border. They were getting pretty close to the camp again.

Goldpaw nodded, "Sure!" she replied, flicking her tail. She quickly buried the bird she had caught under some leaves and dirt, so she could pick it up later.

Shatteredpaw smiled at Goldpaw, "awesome!" Smiling the apprentice continued t limp forward, "now where?" She asked looking at Aspenstar.
He collapsed when he felt the paw sharply jab his leg. "Ack.. Ok, ok! You got me. Get off!" He gave his dusty chest a few licks to clean it off, then looked at his eager apprentice again. "That was good work. Just remember to get out from under the cat when you unbalance him. Otherwise, they'll knock the breath out of you, and your advantage will be lost." He paused to take a breath, then said, "Now then! It's getting late, and I don't want you to stay out much longer. Let's go back to camp. You may try to hunt along the way if you see anything."
[align=center]Aspenstar smiled. "Great! Though we'll be heading back to the camp soon, because I have some things I need to get done. But first, we can finish patrolling the border." He turned and led the way back to the invisible border.

Goldpaw followed eagerly, sniffing the air and observing everything around her. She noted the shade of green the leaves were and the way the branches of the trees bent in the wind.

[align=center]Aspenstar noticed Goldpaw looking around at everything, taking second glances and absorbing everything in. She might have a photographic memory, he thought. I'll have to get to know her better. Then, he smiled slightly. He needed to get to know all of the apprentices better. They would be his future warriors or, in the case of Eclipsepaw, his future medicine cat.
Staticpaw's eyes shone with pride while she lept up her tail twitching with energy. "Awesome!" She purred. Stretching forward a small yawn escaped her maw, "okay and I'll for sure hunt!"
Shatteredpaw limped forward, he tail held out for balance. Looking around she examined the forest her ears held high.
[align=center]Aspenstar realized he should be giving these apprentices a verbal tour of the territory, plus a bit of history. He spotted an old tree stump ahead and pointed with his tail.
"That stump was the site of a great battle in SunClan history," he meowed. "The leader before me lost not one, but two lives here. Nearly half of the Clan died."
He smiled slightly and began moving back to camp. Maybe an apprentice isn't so bad after all.. He hardened his expression. No. Emotion is for the weak. You let yourself slip up today, Snakeshade... Don't do it again if you want to be leader sooner than Aspenstar is ready to go. Don't turn soft, like the rest of those weak mouse brains.
[align=center]Aspenstar always hated this particular part of the border. It gave him the chills to think that something like that could happen again to his own Clan.

Goldpaw turned her head sharply to look at Aspenstar, "Really?" she asked, alarmed, "It's terrible that something like hat has happened here." she mewed.
[/fancypost]
[align=center]Aspenstar nodded. "Let's keep moving, shall we?" Without waiting for a reply, he strode off.

Goldpaw looked at Shatteredpaw before walking after Aspenstar.
[/fancypost]
[align=center]Aspenstar kept walking until the tree stump was left far behind. "Sorry," he muttered, turning to the apprentices, a hint of shame in his eyes. "I just hate that place. It always reminds me that I have the lives of my Clanmates on my shoulders."
Shtteredpaw turned to Goldpaw the small frightened look upon her face as well. Lowering her head she limped forward and examined the territory silently.
Staticpaw bounded in forward in large leaps her tail swaying behind her, "I like begining an apprentice! I can't wait to be a warrior!" She meowed in a proud stance.
"Don't worry. Training to be a warrior is a breeze, as long as you stay determined." He walked along a gravelly path toward the camp, staying alert for danger.
