"Now, if you excuse me, I'm going tree hunting." Silverpelt said, turning to the nearest tree.

ooc: yep, but my time is an hour ahead from the game's time... so it's not that early :)
ic: Echosoul scented the air around her, wondering what prey she would find today.
-
OOC: Mine is the game time. ;)
IC: She climbed the tree, careful not to make much noise.
-
Ooc: sorry about the inactivity!
Ic: Eaglepaw shook his head, not having anymore questions
"I think I'll try hunting now." He said, sweeping his gaze quickly around the area he was in to see what prey he could go after -

[size=7pt][color=black]I carried most of my prey back to camp. Once I was done dropping the kill off, I came back and continued with with hunt.[/fancypost] -
Nightstar smiled, nodding before seeing Silverpelt in the trees. "I see someone decided to go tree hunting." She whispered. It had been a long time since she had gone tree hunting and so she climbed the nearest tree, picking a branch with a pigeon on it and stalking forwards.
Silverpelt smiled over to Nightstar, who had decided to tree hunt. Focussing back on her target, she pounced at the squirrel, snapping it's neck.

Eaglepaw spotted a mouse nibbling on some seeds, so he crouched into a hunting position and began to creep twoards it, his tail dragging the ground every now and then before he's lift it up, remembering not to drag it
However, Eaglepaw leapt too soon at the mouse, and it slipped through his claws and scurried away
"I missed it." He muttered, glaring at the ground and lashing his tail back and forth in frustration -

[size=7pt][color=black]I watched Eaglepaw fail to catch the small mouse. I padded over to him. "Nice try." I soothed politely. "I can teach you better tricks so you can have more successful hunts." I say to him.[/fancypost] -
Silverpelt watched the apprentices exchange. She smiled and, moveing above them, dropped the squirrel down out of the tree.
-
"Really? That'd be great Jerseypaw. Thanks!" Eaglepaw said, his face lighting up with eagerness and excitement
-
She waited for the squirrel to land next to the apprentice before jumping down after it.

[size=7pt][color=black]I smiled and got into a hunter crouch. "Here's what you do." I explained creeping up on a straying mouse. I lowered tail so it wasn't up high in the air but it wasn't dragging on the ground. "Balance your tail." I whispered. I quietly moved forward until a was whisker length away from the mouse. I held my breath for a quick second before pouncing. I bit the back of it's neck, killing it. "Then you soften your breath along with your footsteps, so it won't hear you." I continued. "As soon you get close enough, you pounce. Also make sure you firmly have it in your grasp. If you do give it a quick bite the back of it's neck, or spine. It'll kill it instantly." I finish then nudging the mouse I caught to him.[/fancypost] -
"Very good!" Silverpelt said, smiling. "You seem to have gotten this quickly. If your lucky and Nightstar gives her permission, I may just have to teach you how to do tree hunting."
-
Eaglepaw nodded, understanding what she was saying.
He turned towards another rodent, crouching into a hunting position and creeping forward, his tail neither too low nor too high. He kept creeping forward, and his breathing slowed, but his pawsteps were too loud, so before he could pounce, the mouse ran away into the bushes.
"What did I do wrong? I always mess up." He growled, swiping at the ground as he paced back and forth, his fur starting to stand on end and fluff up -

[size=7pt][color=black]I watched him fail again. He was still having trouble. I rested my tail on his shoulder as he began to feel frustrated and his fur began to fluff. "It's okay. We can always try again. Don't give up just because you can't get it." I reassure, trying not to choose my words wrong.[/fancypost] -
Eaglepaw looked over at her, and sighed, his fur beginning to flatten as he calmed down
"You're right Jerseypaw." He said, shaking his head as he tried to clear his thoughts
He sniffed the air, spotting a squirrel on the ground this time, as the fluffy animal looked for nuts to put in its treeHe crouched yet again into the hunting position, his tail neither low nor high and this time his paws steps were quieter as he crept forward twoards the unsuspecting squirrel
When he was close enough to it he held his breath and pounced, catching the squirrel in his claws as he bit Down in its neck, killing it quickly"Hey! I did it! I caught something!" Eaglepaw said happily as he proudly picked up the squirrel in his jaws
-
"See. You just needed to calm down. Thinking about your mistakes aren't gonna' get you anywhere if you don't think about what you can learn from them.
Meanwhile, Nightstar had finished tree hunting and was now watching the exchange.
-
"I'll remember that!" Eaglepaw said as he set the squirrel down at his feet
Maybe one day I'll be as good at hunting as I am fighting. the brown and white tom thinks, smiling to himself -

[size=7pt][color=black]I nodded in agreement with Silverpelt, but I wa proud that he finally managed to catch some prey. "Good job!" I praised.[/fancypost] -
"Thanks Jerseypaw. You did a good job encouraging me to not give up. Thank you." Eaglepaw said, his smile growing wider with happiness
